Baller Move: Add in Standard Leagues (12+ teams IDP Leagues) Analysis: On the season Reshad Jones has 36 tackles (six per game), 1.5 sacks and one pick, which makes him a fairly decent option to consider if you are in looking for an IDP Safety option. This past week, he had his best game on the season: nine […]
Full Story »CAROLINA (CAR), DEF – Waiver Wire Pickup
Baller Move: Add in Standard Leagues (12+ teams) Analysis: Coming off a great game versus the St. Louis Rams (four sacks, one INT, two fumble recoveries and one TD), they will be facing a Tampa Bay team who will not have Doug Martin. I expect solid production for the Panthers defense as they feast upon the second-worst offense […]
Full Story »Jeremy Kerley (WR, NYJ) - Waiver Wire Pickup
Baller Move: Continue Monitoring (12 teams or less), Add in Deeper Leagues (12+ Teams – PPR) Analysis: Each week Jeremy Kerley has received at least five targets except one (Week One with four targets). This week it finally translated to solid production with eight catches for 97 yards and a TD. I expect Kerley to finish the season with […]

Full Story »Terrance Williams (WR, DAL) - Waiver Wire Pickup
Baller Move: Add Immediately (8+ Teams – Standard, PPR) Analysis: For the past couple of weeks I’ve specifically refrained from mentioning Williams because I saw him as a stopgap fill-in for Miles Austin. After evaluating this situation further I’m noticing the following: 1)Miles Austin is still not healthy, 2) Williams is playing better and better each week, 3) Dallas […]
Full Story »Harry Douglas (WR, ATL) - Waiver Wire Pickup
Baller Move: Add Immediately (8+ Teams – Standard, PPR) Analysis: Last week I failed to mention Harry Douglasin my waiver article, and although I’m a little disappointed I did end up picking him up in a couple of leagues. However, now the secret is out and he blew up versus Tampa Bay. He had seven catches for 149 […]
Full Story »Roy Helu, Jr. (RB, WAS) - Waiver Wire Pickup
Baller Move: Add in Deeper Leagues and All PPR Leagues Analysis: Helu likely will not match his three-touchdown performance again this year, but his role has increased over the past few weeks, touchdowns aside. He is the passing-down RB for the Redskins, as Alfred Morris has never been able to be counted on catching the ball. His touchdowns this […]
Full Story »Mike James (RB, TB) - Waiver Wire Pickup
Baller Move: Add Immediately Analysis: With Doug Martin sidelined indefinitely, Mike James stands to be the feature back in Tampa for multiple weeks, if not the remainder of the season. James stepped into his new role in the third quarter and performed well enough, gaining 45 yards on 14 carries and adding three receptions for eight yards. His potential […]
Full Story »Jacquizz Rodgers (RB, ATL) - Waiver Wire Pickups
Baller Move: Add in Deeper Leagues and All PPR Leagues Analysis: Jacquizz’s stint as the starting RB in Atlanta was extended last week as Steven Jackson suffered a setback in his recovery. While Jackson remains out, Rodgers, still available in about 50% of leagues, is a decent fill in option in standard leagues, and a near must start in […]
Full Story »Terrelle Pryor (QB, OAK) - Waiver Wire Pickups
Baller Move: Add in All Leagues Analysis: Pryor comes off his BYE week facing a rejuvenated Steelers team which just held the Baltimore Ravens to fewer than 300 total yards.

Full Story »Ryan Tannehill (QB, MIA) - Waiver Wire Pickups
Baller Move: Add in Deep Leagues Analysis: Tannehill couldn’t lead the Dolphins to a fourth-quarter comeback against Buffalo in Week Seven, mustering only a couple of failed drives and losing a fumble when his team needed him most. He still threw for 194 yards with three TD and two INT, and with a weak running game, the […]
Full Story »Mike Glennon (QB, TB) - Waiver Wire Pickups
Baller Move: Stash in Deep Leagues Analysis: Mike Glennon faces a short turnaround this Thursday with a matchup against the Carolina Panthers and their fourth-ranked defense. He’s fared much better than expected so far, but the last two weeks he has also faced two teams near the bottom in passing defense. Still, he kept the Bucs in the game against […]
Full Story »Donald Brown (RB, IND) - Waiver Wire Pickups
Baller Move: Stash in Deep Leagues Analysis: Ever since the Colts traded for Trent Richardson, everyone has been waiting for him to play to his potential and break out in a high-scoring offense. Needless to say, that hasn’t happened yet. Richardson has been decent, but still hasn’t mastered the Indianapolis playbook– and he can’t seem to find […]
Full Story »Brandon Bolden (RB, NE) - Waiver Wire Pickups
Baller Move: Stash in Deep Leagues Analysis: Brandon Bolden had another decent game this week for the Patriots, as Bill Belichick continued to use him throughout the game. Even with Stevan Ridley back and running well, Bolden received plenty of work early, especially when the Patriots were in the hurry-up offense. He continues to act as the third-down back […]
