BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 30% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Week 7 was very disappointing for Dorial Green-Beckham and his owners, as well as the Tennessee Titans.

Full Story »Rueben Randle (WR, NYG) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 52% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Rueben Randle may still not have been 100% with his hamstring going into Week 7, though he should be darn close.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 29% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Leonard Hankerson was ruled out of Week 7’s game against the Titans with a hamstring injury.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 15% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Nate Washington had a heck of a game on Sunday against the Dolphins as he racked up garbage time stats.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 26% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: With Breshad Perriman out indefinitely with his PCL injury requiring more rehabilitation, Aiken is in line to continue seeing snaps for Baltimore.

Full Story »Ahmad Bradshaw (RB, IND) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 16% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Ahmad Bradshaw is going to require patience from his owners, patience and hope.

Full Story »Antonio Andrews (RB, TEN) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 25% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Antonio Andrews missed the first two games of the season, only to come back and score a touchdown in Weeks 3 and 5.

Full Story »Shane Vereen (RB, NYG) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 68% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Shane Vereen has had three games where his PPR stats would have warranted playing him, but unfortunately he has also thrown in four games that were true stinkers. While he definitely has to be owned in PPR scoring leagues for […]
Full Story »Ryan Mathews (RB, PHI) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 76% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: While owning Ryan Mathews has quite the “handcuffy” feel to it, he still has put forward three weeks out of seven that would absolutely warrant playing him. If you’re in a league with a bench spot that you aren’t extremely attached […]
Full Story »Why Alfred Blue Is the Next Man Up in Houston
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 49% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Yeah, Arian Foster is done for 2015.

Full Story »James Starks Should Continue to Get Carries
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 43% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Don't forget about James Starks during Green Bay's bye week. Starks' value going forward boils down to whether you think Eddie Lacy's struggles are a result of a lingering ankle injury or general ineffectiveness. Regardless, with a solid number of touches, Starks should […]
Full Story »Brandon LaFell Hopes to Knock Rust Off
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 52% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: That was certainly an inauspicious start to Brandon LaFell's 2015 season on Sunday. In fairness, he was very rusty and he did not have an easy matchup against the Jets. That being said, his quarterback is still Tom Brady, and I'm buying […]
Full Story »Stay the Course with Matt Jones
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 54% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: The Redskins' ground game has been a mess, but Jones was on the field more than Alfred Morris. While his usage on Sunday was a bit confusing, a running back who will see goal line touches in the NFL has fantasy […]
Full Story »Jordan Reed Has Become a Top-Tier Tight End
BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 45% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Jordan Reed is a great athlete and a big target, and he has good hands and route-running abilities. He brutalized Tampa Bay for 11 catches, 72 yards and two touchdowns in his first game back from injury. Given how much quarterback Kirk Cousins […]
Full Story »Charcandrick West Is the #1 Back in KC...So Pick Him Up!
BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 42% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Charcandrick West is clearly the starting running back for Kansas City. A starting running back in an offense that will (stubbornly and sometimes stupidly) abuse their running game needs to be owned in way more than 42% of leagues. It's understandable how […]
