Full Story »Fantasy Football Stock Up / Down: Notes from Giants vs Bills Hall of Fame Game
Fantasy Football Players With Rising Stock Value Andre Williams - NYG, RB - I already put Andre Williams on my stock up list a few days ago, but after this performance, wow.

Full Story »Jarrod Dyson (OF, KC) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues for Speed ANALYSIS: Dyson has 22 SB in only 187 ABs for the Royals.

Here are my top value plays for FanDuel and DFS leagues today.
