Full Story »Deeper PPR Lineup Sleepers for Week 6: Theo Riddick, Brandon Coleman, Jacob Tamme
What another strange week in the NFL and NFL fantasy land. The amount of unknown players that are coming out of nowhere this season is amazing. Each week there is a handful of players that are surprisingly posting double-digit points. And, some of them, are doing it in consecutive Sundays. Some, as you will see […]
Full Story »2015 Fantasy Football Week 6: Risers and Fallers From Week 5
Week 6 is here folks. I was pretty underwhelmed with Week 5, but there were still fireworks to be seen. Devonta Freeman continued on his warpath, the Jaguars and Buccaneers scored a ton of points, the Patriots made halftime adjustments and stomped the Cowboys out, and Eli Manning led the Giants to a last minute victory […]
Full Story »NFL Survivor League Picks – Survivor Pool Targets & Avoids (Week 6)
Everyone was doubting the Bears last week. Not me. I wrote, "I see this being a really close game and a possible upset special pick." If you avoided them and the Ravens, congrats. I thought the Ravens would kill the Browns and when they were up 21-9 it seemed over. The Ravens defense is so bad, […]
Full Story »Joe Flacco (QB, BAL) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 58% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Perhaps people dropped him for a hotter option since Steve Smith Sr. went down with an injury, and it is noteworthy that most of Flacco's value against the Browns came from his legs (two rushing touchdowns). That said, he gets to […]
Full Story »Kamar Aiken (WR, BAL) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 24% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: With Breshad Perriman out indefinitely with his PCL injury requiring more rehabilitation and Steve Smith Sr. dealing with his rib injury, Aiken caught four balls on nine targets for 78 yards in Week 5. Aiken is not an elite talent out there, but […]
Full Story »Rueben Randle (WR, NYG) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 51% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: First things first, Rueben Randle had to sit out the end of the Giants’ Sunday night game against the 49ers with a hamstring issue so you’ll need to keep an eye on that. He should be okay though, the Giants have […]
Full Story »Michael Crabtree (WR, OAK) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 53% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: It can be difficult to talk yourself into adding players who are going into their bye week, but that is all the more reason to be aware of Michael Crabtree heading into this next week. Owners might have dropped him after […]
Full Story »Matt Jones (RB, WAS) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 47% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: The Redskins backfield is becoming very troublesome for owners, but Matt Jones did get a touchdown this past week. Unfortunately it came with less than two yards per carry (11 carries for 20 yards) and Jones did not come out of […]
Full Story »Ryan Mathews (RB, PHI) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 50% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: A lot of people are going to look at the box score of the Eagles-Saints game and notice how well DeMarco Murray did. What cannot be lost is that Ryan Mathews also had a fantastic game, turning eight carries into 73 […]
Full Story »Darren McFadden (RB, DAL) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 35% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: While no one likes to talk about the upside of someone suffering an injury, there is little doubting that Darren McFadden benefits greatly from Lance Dunbar’s season ending knee injury. While McFadden had failed to break the 10 point barrier […]
Full Story »Duke Johnson (RB, CLE) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 49% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Duke Johnson had a lot of preseason hype around him get crippled by a concussion, and then when he was activated by Week 1 a lot of owners wondered if he could usurp Isaiah Crowell for starting duties in Cleveland. […]
Full Story »Jamison Crowder: Deep League PPR Stash
BALLER MOVE: Continue Monitoring in Shallow Leagues OWNED IN: 6% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: With DeSean Jackson out of the lineup, Jamison Crowder has played the high-percentage slot receiver role for Washington since week 3. During that time Kirk Cousins has utilized him as his security blanket targeting him 26 times (~9 targets per game). The bad news is that DeSean […]
Full Story »Time to Buy In on Rodgers to Rodgers Connection
BALLER MOVE: FAAB Bid: $4 - 6 OWNED IN: 42% owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Richard Rodgers is the only real tight end the Packers have left, and it's becoming clear that Aaron Rodgers does notice Richard Rodgers out there as the weeks go along. While Rodgers didn't find the end zone in Week 5, he […]
Full Story »Three's Not a Crowd For Jamison Crowder
BALLER MOVE: FAAB Bid: $1 - 2 OWNED IN: 6% owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: DeSean Jackson returning is going to cut into Jamison Crowder's snaps, but Washington can't be too picky when it comes to having someone effective on the offensive end. DeSean Jackson and Pierre Garcon will be good for them, but with Jordan Reed […]
