NFL Survivor League Picks – Targets & Avoids for Week 10
Last week was one of my best weeks picking. Not only did my three teams win, but they all covered the spread. This week features much easier games, with heavy favorites. The Jets open the week hosting the Bills in the much overhyped "Rex Ryan returning to New York" game. There are four divisional games, […]
Davante Adams Has Regained Top Form
BALLER MOVE: Add in 8- and 10-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 55% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: It took a lot of time for Davante Adams to come back to the field - and although his first day back on the job was entirely forgettable, his second actually had some value.

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues OWNED IN: 33% owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: The hype surrounding "the other Rodgers" in his rookie season has not come to fruition in his sophomore year.

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 40% Owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: James Starks has been able to outplay top five fantasy pick Eddie Lacy this season - and although it seemed like Lacy had returned last week, Starks was quick to re-establish himself as the best option for the Packers after he was […]
Are The Cheeseheads Curdling? Eddie Lacy, James Jones, Randall Cobb & More
After starting 6-0, the Packers have lost two games in a row and their season is now very much in question. Since the preseason, Green Bay was going to have to overcome adversity as their star wideout Jordy Nelson went down with an ACL injury. Despite this, fans and analysts alike were confident that Aaron […]
Week 10 Waiver Wire & QB Streamers: Jameis Winston, Marcus Mariota & Kirk Cousins
Week 9 saw Tyrod Taylor deliver an acceptable performance. It wasn’t great, but I’ll take 15 points from a QB streamer any week. Meanwhile I should have expected it, but Kirk Cousins was disappointing. My options at 25% or less were Johnny Manziel, Blaine Gabbert and Matt Cassel. There was no chance I was starting […]
Grab Richard Rodgers at His Low Point
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 36% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Rodgers hasn’t scored since Week 4, and his ownership levels have reflected a mellowing out on the Rodgers’ hype.

It's not too late. Week 8 is in the books and for most leagues that means that we are half way through the season. By no means is it too late to turn a season around and with the myriad of injuries this past week, the waiver wire is just the place to do it. […]
Week 8 Booms and Busts: Late Games

James Starks Should Continue to Get Carries
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 43% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Don't forget about James Starks during Green Bay's bye week. Starks' value going forward boils down to whether you think Eddie Lacy's struggles are a result of a lingering ankle injury or general ineffectiveness. Regardless, with a solid number of touches, Starks should […]
Richard Rodgers Is Benefitting from Injuries to Teammates
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 34% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Green Bay’s receivers have been plagued with injuries, so Richard Rodgers had been a de facto target for quarterback Aaron Rodgers in recent games.

FAAB Auction Bidding - Week 8 NFL Waiver Wire Targets
Week 7 was relatively quiet outside of Arian Foster being lost for the year, and even his replacements aren't really enticing. This week seems to be more about reminders from players who have played well before, but may be available due to their own bye weeks or coming back from an injury. Buffalo, Jacksonville, Philadelphia, and […]
Tight Ends Waiver Wire: Week 8 Pickups and Adds
Fantasy owners are going to be without Washington’s Jordan Reed, Buffalo’s Charles Clay, Jacksonville’s Julius Thomas and Philadelphia’s Zach Ertz this week.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 39% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Another example of a player who had a subpar week and now heads into their bye week, Richard Rodgers still had five targets in an underwhelming effort against San Diego. He was only able to turn two of those five targets […]
FAAB Auction Bidding - Week 7 NFL Waiver Wire Targets
Week 6 saw quite a few notable players go down and miss some action, causing other guys to rack up some numbers that might be a genuine indicator of future output, or misleading. We saw Jeremy Maclin (concussion), Keenan Allen (hip), Sammy Watkins (ankle), Allen Robinson (knee), and others leave their games early. This meant […]
Week 7 Running Backs: Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds
"What the hell is going on out here?" I have never felt more like Vince Lombardi at the time of this famous quote than I do this week. Eddie Lacy isn't the guy? Joseph Randle has fumbled his way out of the lead role? C.J. Anderson continues to stink and Devonta Freeman is the best […]
Could James Starks Really Spell Eddie Lacy?
BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 21% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: James Starks was an own-able commodity as Eddie Lacy's handcuff, but no one saw Starks as a threat to steal playing time without a major injury to Lacy.

Jeff Janis the Next Man Up in Green Bay
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 4% Owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Ty Montgomery suffered an injury in the middle of his matchup and had to be carted off the field. That doesn't bode well for his chances to suit up the next time the Packers play in Week 8, making his replacement […]
James Starks a Must-Add This Week & Beyond
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 20% Owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Even without this big game from Starks, only 20% ownership is insanely low for the handcuff of a RB that plays on one of the best offenses in the NFL. He's literally one injury away from being an RB1. Week 6 was […]

Randall Cobb Says Shoulder 'Could Be' an Issue All Season
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Randall Cobb has been dealing with a bum shoulder since Week 4 and it doesn't sound like it will get any better going forward. Cobb told the media that the injury may be a problem for the rest of the season. “I think it’s a possibility it could be,” Cobb […]
