Full Story »Week 3 Sleepers: Last Call for Tyrod Taylor, Hedging Eddie Lacy
Welcome to our season-long segment at RotoBaller where we will be targeting players owned in 25% or less of Fleaflicker leagues. Matt Jones (42%) and Dion Lewis (32%) make for great FAAB claims, but they're too heavily owned for this segment. Week 2 was not easy on a lot of fantasy teams. Carlos Hyde and Eddie […]
Full Story »David Johnson (RB, ARI) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 58% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Assuming Andre Ellington misses at least one more week, David Johnson remains fantasy relevant.

Full Story »FAAB Auction Bidding - Week 3 Waiver Wire Targets
The days after Week 2 can be critical to your year-long success in fantasy football. Starting your season 0-2 means you might need to open up to more risks, and this is a week where you can make a splash on the waiver wire to plug those lineup holes. Perhaps you were bitten by the […]

Full Story »Minor League Spotlight: Top Fantasy Pitching Prospects from Week 24
I was very ecstatic to hear that Barry Zito and Tim Hudson would oppose each other in their final career starts. It is just a nice story: former teammates who both started their careers in Oakland would face off against one another for one last hurrah. I hope they both pitch well. It would be […]
Full Story »Champ or Chump: Conforto, Corey Seager, and Sano
Last week, we examined three veterans that have managed to dramatically exceed their preseason expectations, a class of player that is disproportionately likely to bust the next year. This week, we look at another class of player likely to bust: The highly touted prospect that puts up strong MLB numbers in a limited sample size. […]
Full Story »Crockett Gilmore (TE, BAL) - Waiver Wire Analysis
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 21% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: After the drafting of Maxx Williams, it seemed like the TE spot was settled in to a "no value" zone - there hasn't been a rookie TE with fantasy value for a long, long time. Suddenly, here comes Crockett Gilmore stealing the starting […]
Full Story »Nick Foles (QB, STL) - Waiver Wire Analysis
BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues / Matchup Streamer OWNED IN: 39% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Foles didn’t work out against the Redskins in Week 2, but the Steelers have been absolutely crushed by quarterbacks in the first two weeks of the fantasy football season. The Steelers are dead last in pass coverage, as graded by Pro Football Focus, […]
Full Story »Rishard Matthews (WR, MIA) - Waiver Wire Analysis
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 3% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: There was a lot of talk about this offense entering the season - from how great the weapons looked, to Tannehill's continuing development. Within this large pool of receivers, one of the players that got lost in the mix was Rishard Matthews. […]
Full Story »Blake Bortles (QB, JAX) - Waiver Wire Analysis
BALLER MOVE: Add in 2 QB Leagues / Matchup Streamer OWNED IN: 21% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: On Sunday, Bortles had one of the best games of his young career in a win over the Dolphins.

Full Story »James Starks (RB, GB) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 13% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: The severity of Eddie Lacy's injury is not fully known right now - but assuming he does miss any time at all, Starks becomes a must own.

Full Story »Johnny Manziel (QB, CLE) - Waiver Wire Analysis
BALLER MOVE: Add in 2 QB Leagues / Matchup Streamer OWNED IN: 12% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Manziel’s Week 2 performance versus the Tennessee Titans was a strange but pleasant surprise.

Full Story »New York Giants (DEF, NYG) - Waiver Wire Analysis
BALLER MOVE: Add as Week 3 Matchup Streamer OWNED IN: 11% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Washington has been surprisingly not terrible since the start of the season.
