Full Story »Malcom Floyd (WR, SD) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper PPR Leagues / Stash in Standard Leagues ANALYSIS: Malcom Floyd is a wide receiver that I like for fantasy football, but is also a hard guy to play every week in standard leagues. In Week 1 of the NFL season, he surprised for 11 fantasy points for non-PPR scoring. After seeing a 75% increase in […]
Full Story »Brian Tyms (WR, NE) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Dynasty Formats / Monitor in All Leagues ANALYSIS: I had been debating with myself whether I should add Brian Tyms in my dynasty league.

Full Story »Ryan Tannehill (QB, MIA) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in All 2 QB leagues / Stream in 12+ Team Leagues ANALYSIS: I really thought this year would be the year that Tannehill took a huge step forward for the Dolphins. He didn't seem to agree with me, at least not for the first 3 games. In standard leagues for the first 3 […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in Very Deep Leagues 57% owned in Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Nicks may never again be the receiver he was in New York in 2011, but if anyone can bring him back to relevancy, it's Andrew Luck. Through six games, he only has 141 yards on 17 receptions, but he has crossed the […]

Full Story »Mark Ingram (RB, NO) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add Immediately in All leagues ANALYSIS: Before going down with a hand injury Mark Ingram, was having the break-out year many of us had wished for him. On the season he has rushed 24 times for 143 yards and 3 touchdowns, in only 2 games. That would be a 6.0 yards per carry average... […]
Full Story »3 Fantasy Football Players Sending Out Warning Signals After Week 6
Players That Are Making Me Nervous For Week 7 First, a quick follow up to last week's article: LeSean McCoy obviously decided to bust out after I wrote about him here.

Full Story »Joe Flacco (QB, BAL) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in Most Leagues / Start on Bye Weeks or 2 QB Leagues Owned in 51% of Yahoo leagues ANALYSIS: Following Flacco's thrashing of the Tampa Bay secondary, fantasy owners may be quick to trust him as a starter on a week-to-week basis. If you are lucky enough to have Baltimore's signal caller as […]

Full Story »Valeri Nichushkin: Fantasy Hockey Sleeper for NHL Sophomores
Who is Valeri Nichushkin? Last year saw the emergence of quite a few great NHL rookies.

One of the […]
Full Story »Cleveland Browns (DEF, CLE) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in All 12+ Leagues Owned in 33% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Don't look at us like we're crazy for talking about the Cleveland Browns defense as a sleeper waiver wire pickup for Week 7. After a few up and down weeks it seems the Browns are poised for a nice three game run, with three very […]
Full Story »Jordan Reed (TE, WAS) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues Owned in 60% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: My top waiver wire recommendation for this week is Jordan Reed.
