BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 20% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Man, let me tell you that I don't want to be endorsing Gary Barnidge. At 30 years old, with barely anything to show for his career, having a relevant fantasy season is so out of left field it's hard to believe. It's actually incredibly similar […]
Full Story »Willie Snead (WR, NO) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 4% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: All the hype was pointed towards Saints receivers Brandon Coleman and Brandon Cooks during the offseason.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 25% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: I'm not going to pretend that Tavon Austin deserves to be rostered but he should be considered. With the lacking amount of real talent on the Rams receiving squad, Tavon Austin stands out as the most obviously "talented" of the group. Essentially the argument for […]
Full Story »Ronnie Hillman (RB, DEN) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 52% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: It's surprising how low this ownership is. C.J. Anderson shows no hold on his starting job as he's been plodding his way to an unspectacular 2015 season. Meanwhile, Hillman started coming around this week showing much better running than Anderson, even outside of his big 72 yard […]

Full Story »Sam Bradford (QB, PHI) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues OWNED IN: 58% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: There weren't any quarterback performances this week that look good enough to make a QB worth picking up other than Sam Bradford's. All the hype on Bradford took it's time to materialize, but against the Redskins it finally seemed like it came together. At least somewhat. Bradford threw 28 […]

Full Story »Is Devonta Freeman The Top Fantasy RB Moving Forward?
Ladies and gentleman, meet the newest elite fantasy football running back.

Full Story »Ronnie Hillman The New Starter Over C.J. Anderson In Denver?
Ronnie Hillman and C.J. Anderson both saw 11 carries in Week 4 versus the Minnesota Vikings, but once again Hillman outplayed Anderson.
