FAAB Bid: $6 - 8, 38% owned in Fleaflicker Don't move too quickly to the waiver wire, as Bortles still looks very skittish and easily alarmed in the pocket and is now reportedly dealing with a Grade 1 sprain in his AC Joint (which has a small effect on throwing motion, but the worst is when […]
Full Story »Is Brian Hoyer A Worthy Waiver Add for Week 6
FAAB Bid: $2 - 3, 8% owned in Fleaflicker I've got to include a desperation option, or for those in competitive two quarterback leagues.

Full Story »Puig (Hamstring) Starts Game 4 For Dodgers
Yasiel Puig will make his first start of the 2015 postseason on Tuesday for Game 4 against the New York Mets.

Full Story »Joe Flacco Still Underowned, Strong Week 6 Matchup Awaits
FAAB Bid: $3 - 4, 58% owned in Fleaflicker 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).

Full Story »Theo Riddick Is A Sneaky PPR Waiver Wire Add
FAAB Bid: $6 - 8 (PPR Leagues), 15% owned in Fleaflicker Riddick deserves a lot more love in PPR leagues, but it turns out he's not a total throwaway in standard leagues either.

FAAB Bid: $6 - 8, 54% owned in Fleaflicker I said last week not to think of Hurns as the lead dog in Jacksonville, and Allen Robinson did come back to show that he is the number one for the Jaguars this week. That said Hurns was again great, posting another 116 yard and one touchdown […]

Full Story »Willie Snead (WR, NO) - Priority Waiver Wire Adds & FAAB Bids
22% Owned in Fleaflicker Honestly, Willie Snead should have been included in last week's segment.
