NFL Survivor League Picks – Targets & Avoids (Week 8)
We are almost halfway through the football season. Where'd the time go!? Now though, is where the fun begins. Teams begin separating themselves from the pack as they look to make a playoff push. The Bills, Eagles, Jaguars, and Washington are all on bye. For those of you unfamiliar with survivor pools it’s very simple; […]
Week 8 Deeper Sleepers: Replacing Arian Foster
Welcome to our season-long segment at RotoBaller where we will be targeting players owned in 25% or less of Fleaflicker leagues. To describe last week's picks in one word... meh. Sure, we hit on Stefon Diggs, but that felt more like a "no duh" pick given how good he looked his first two games. The only […]
Malcom Floyd (WR, SD) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Drop in 10-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 26% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Sometimes something doesn't feel good, but we have to do it anyway. This is where we're at with Malcom Floyd. The veteran San Diego Chargers wideout is simply not producing enough to justify a roster spot in most season-long leagues. I say most […]
Doug Baldwin (WR, SEA) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Consider for GPP lineups in DFS OWNED IN: 35% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Fantasy football can be frustrating and stressful enough on its own. If you're relying on a Seattle Seahawks pass-catcher, that's only going to make things more infuriating. Through seven games this season, the Seahawks have had four different players finish as […]
FAAB Auction Bidding - Week 8 NFL Waiver Wire Targets
Week 7 was relatively quiet outside of Arian Foster being lost for the year, and even his replacements aren't really enticing. This week seems to be more about reminders from players who have played well before, but may be available due to their own bye weeks or coming back from an injury. Buffalo, Jacksonville, Philadelphia, and […]
Week 8 Waiver Wire Overview: Darren McFadden, Stefon Diggs, Orleans Darkwa & More
Waiver Wire Adds for Week Eight The seventh Sunday of the season is through, and the wackiness continues.

And there's still another big matchup on tonight's Monday Night slate. Week 7 saw a gruesome season ending injury […]
Week 7 NFL Recap: Injuries, Breakout Performers & Game by Game Analysis
The most common text I sent this Sunday was “this is by far the ugliest week of football of the year” and I don’t think that’s even up for debate right now. From top to bottom, from Thursday night to Sunday night, nearly every game had some serious flaws. In a weird sort of way, […]
Wide Receivers Waiver Wire for Week 8: Brandon LaFell, Michael Crabtree, Michael Floyd and More
Week 7 gave us plenty of waiver wire options at wide receiver, but this week, it may be more about picking through your free agent list and finding which of the players below are actually available. Unlike many other weeks, when we can find players who are owned in less than 30 percent of leagues, […]
Danny Amendola's Role Growing?
BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues OWNED IN: 16% Owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: I don't believe any notion that Amendola is breaking out all over again but the situation might be a lot more positive than we're assuming. Julian Edelman is hurting with drops, Dion Lewis is injured and may continue to stay injured, and […]
Stefon Diggs Quickly Ascending WR Ranks
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 38% Owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: He was the #1 priority waiver last week, and it's going to be no different this week. Diggs is on his way to being the waiver WR breakout for the 2015 season and should be owned. Against the Detroit Lions Diggs managed […]

The waiver wire isn't the only place to change the course of your team. The right trade can make or break your season.
