Ryan Mathews (RB, PHI) - 2015 Fantasy Football Sleeper

BALLER MOVE: Target in Rounds 9-10 as RB4 Current ADP: 108 STD, 103 PPR ANALYSIS: Ryan Mathews is probably the best handcuff in all of fantasy football this year, given how Chip Kelly uses his running backs.

Running Back DeMarco Murray's 2015 Fantasy Outlook

I think DeMarco Murray took a long nap after the season.  436 carries and 61 catches (including postseason) takes a huge toll on the body.  That’s an average of 27.6 touches per game, and that’s not including all of his blocking assignments and routes run without a catch.  To put it in perspective, Murray totaled […]

CURRENT ADP: ~133 Overall (QB 17) BALLER MOVE: Target in Later Rounds as QB2 ANALYSIS: Sam Bradford was the first overall pick in 2010 and was set to be the franchise quarterback of the St. Louis Rams. His career to date has been riddled with injuries, and with a sub-par supporting cast in St. Louis, Bradford never lived […]

Tight End Zach Ertz, the Post-Hype Sleeper of 2015

2014 was a rough year for breakout tight ends.  Zach Ertz, Jordan Cameron, Charles Clay, Tyler Eifert, Jordan Reed, Vernon Davis, Kyle Rudolph, Dennis Pitta, Ladarius Green and more failed to reach their preseason expectations, whether it was due to poor play, injury, or a lack of talent around them. Ertz himself is an interesting […]

DeMarco Murray: Not the Risk You Think He Is

DeMarco Murray is coming off the best season of his career in which he dominated fantasy football with only one other running back even coming close to his total points. In standard scoring, you could knock an entire 5 points a game off DeMarco’s season total (80 points total) and he would still be the RB6 last […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues Owned in 28% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Don't be sleeping on the slight edge that a high-end kicker can give you week to week, because sometimes it's a matter of a few points that separate you from a win.
