BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 52% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Willie Snead's already well known, but his ownership feels barely significant for a player who's been impacting NFL games since Week 4. Snead's been averaging enough points per game the last five weeks to be a low-end WR2 in any format. He needs […]
Full Story »Davante Adams Has Regained Top Form
BALLER MOVE: Add in 8- and 10-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 55% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: It took a lot of time for Davante Adams to come back to the field - and although his first day back on the job was entirely forgettable, his second actually had some value. Davante Adams is rejoining an offense that's desperately in […]
Full Story »Brandon LaFell's Ceiling is Too High to Ignore
BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 52% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: I hate that I'm endorsing Brandon LaFell, but I have to. Despite career-long drop issues, the Patriots gave LaFell a chance when they signed him in 2014 and he has been surprisingly effective even though his drop issues have not subsided. Tom Brady […]
Full Story »Look to Owen Daniels if You're Desperate at TE
BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues OWNED IN: 32% Owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: The Denver Broncos did not trade for former San Francisco 49er Vernon Davis because they wanted to run a ton of three-tight sets or because Daniels was having such a superb season (more like subpar) and wanted the twosome to team up. Make […]
Full Story »Pujols (Foot) Out 4 1/2 Months: Could Miss Opening Day
Albert Pujols underwent surgery on his foot last week and will be out of action for the next 4 1/2 months. The Angels slugger had a plantar plate repaired in his right foot. Pujols will now likely miss Opening Day for the 2016 season. The plantar fasciitis issue has been a nagging problem to the […]
Full Story »Ahmad Bradshaw a Sneaky PPR Pickup
BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 13% owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Well, he scored this week so that's something. This is very clearly Frank Gore's job. However, I still think Bradshaw could carve out a role similar to when he was thriving last season as the pass catching back. Remember, Bradshaw was […]
Full Story »Shaun Draughn the Back to Own in San Fran?
BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues OWNED IN: 1% owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Perhaps the most available pickup of the week, Draughn was the lead back in San Francisco in Carlos Hyde's absence. Draughn grabbed 20 touches, turning them into 96 total yards in a surprising win over the Atlanta Falcons. Popular week 9 pickup, […]
Full Story »Scoop Up Richard Rodgers if You Need TE Help
BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues OWNED IN: 33% owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: The hype surrounding "the other Rodgers" in his rookie season has not come to fruition in his sophomore year. Still, for desperate owners, Rodgers plays with the best QB in the NFL and could start putting together touchdowns if the offense can […]
Full Story »Don't Sleep on This Lion: Eric Ebron
BALLER MOVE: Add in all 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 37% Ownership on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: In my opinion, the second best waiver option out there for this position is Eric Ebron. Ebron is somehow the 10th highest ranked fantasy tight end and yet only sees ownership in a third of leagues. With Calvin Johnson injured, […]
Full Story »Ryan Fitzpatrick Has Been a Consistent Fantasy Scorer
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 29% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Ryan Fitzpatrick is the model of inconsistency when it comes to on-field play, but has somehow been decently consistent when it comes to fantasy scoring. Also prone to rushing and throwing touchdowns along with interceptions, why would he be here this week? Well, if […]
Full Story »Blake Bortles Has a Developed Corps of Weapons
BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 58% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Blake Bortles' development isn't going nearly as smoothly as Derek Carr's-- he's producing fantasy points nearly every week this year. In fact, right now he's about to jump past Alex Smith and become the ninth highest scoring QB so far this year. Bortles […]
Full Story »Derek Carr Is in Full Breakout Mode
BALLER MOVE: Add in 8- and 10-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 63% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Derek Carr is quickly becoming one of the NFL's budding stars as a passer, and more importantly, for our purposes, one of the league's better options in fantasy. After a bumpy start including three under 15 point games in his first five weeks, Carr […]
Full Story »Tight Ends Waiver Wire: Week 10 Pickups and Adds
Fantasy football gets a little more back to normal this week after owners had to suffer through a bye week where a half-dozen teams were off. You're probably not sweating as much this week with your Tight End. San Diego’s Antonio Gates is the most valuable tight end that is off, and most of the quality […]
Full Story »Austin Sefarian-Jenkins a Great Injury Stash
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 50% Ownership on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: The hardest market to find waiver pickups is always at tight end. ASJ should be returning to the lineup next week (or soon), and should have the highest upside of any tight end you can find on the waivers. The Buccaneers are going […]
