Full Story »Willis McGahee (RB, CLE) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add Immediately ANALYSIS: McGahee is taking a physical now, but once he passes it (if he passes it, that is), we expect him to sign with the Browns. If you haven't heard, the Browns shipped out Trent Richardson to the Colts and are left with a gaping hole at RB. The old and […]

Full Story »Nate Burleson (WR, DET) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues ANALYSIS: When most people think of the Lions offense, they immediately think Megatron, Reggie Bush and of course Matt Stafford, but the often forgotten about and most undervalued player in this offense is non other than former Vikings and Seahawks great Nate Burleson. Posting 73 catches on 110 targets […]
Full Story »Fred Jackson (RB, BUF) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add immediately in all leagues. ANALYSIS: I’m shocked that Fred Jackson is still available in nearly 50% of leagues. In a year with such a thin RB class, Jackson should at least be riding the pine in nearly every league. In spite of being C.J. Spiller‘s backup, Jackson has outperformed Buffalo’s starter and forced […]
Full Story »Bryce Brown (RB, PHI) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Stash in all leagues. ANALYSIS: As much as I hate to admit it as a LeSean McCoy owner and fan, Chip Kelly’s offense makes a full season for Shady far from a guarantee. Should McCoy miss any time, Bryce Brown, still available in 60% of leagues and former High School Player of the Year, stands to step […]
Full Story »Joique Bell (RB, DET) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add immediately in all leagues. ANALYSIS: While Bell has been claimed in most leagues, he is still available in many. Joique is a versatile back who has put up huge numbers so far, especially considering he’s a backup. Reggie Bush is in no danger of losing his starting role, but his injury list is growing. […]
Full Story »Mikel Leshoure (RB, DET) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Stash in deeper leagues (12+ teams). ANALYSIS: Mikel Leshoure is available in 90% of leagues. This is probably not a shock to most, considering he has yet to register a carry, but he is worth stashing in deeper leagues. Last season, Leshoure put up over 1,000 yards from scrimmage with nine touchdowns on […]
Full Story »Jacquizz Rodgers (RB, ATL) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in deeper leagues (12+ teams) ANALYSIS: Only consider Rodgers if you are desperately thin at RB. Depending on the severity of Steven Jackson‘s injury, Rodgers could see some time as a starter in a timeshare with Jason Snelling. That said, Snelling outperformed Rodgers in Week Two, running for 19 yards and a touchdown on […]
Full Story »James Starks (RB, GB) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add immediately in all leagues. ANALYSIS: With Eddie Lacy leaving Week Two with a concussion, Starks made the most of his opportunity to head Green Bay’s rushing attack. The versatile Starks ran roughshod over the suspect Redskins’ defense to the tune of 132 yards and a touchdown on 20 carries. He also added 36 receiving […]
