Mike Davis (RB, SEA) - Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 30% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Between week four and week ten of the 2018 NFL campaign, Mike Davis performed at an admirable level for the Seattle Seahawks to the tune of 52.2 yards-per-game and three touchdowns across 75 carries in six games. However, over the past two weeks […]

Trusting Jameis Winston Down the Stretch

Jameis Winston is getting another opportunity to prove that he is not only the quarterback of the present but also of the future for the Tampa Bay Buccanneers. Winston made his first start in almost a month against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 12, one week after replacing Ryan Fitzpatrick during the third quarter of the […]

As an addendum to our famous waiver wire pickups list, and our weekly waiver wire columns by position, in this column we also present suggested waiver wire bidding percentages for fantasy football owners in leagues using a Free Agent Acquisition Budget (FAAB). As a caveat, these prices do not by any means indicate how much […]

Week 13 Wide Receivers - Waiver Wire Pickups and Adds

We have one more week till the playoffs are here! Well, for most leagues that is. If you need a win in Week 13 and will need to stream a wide receiver or even need someone with a good matchup during the playoffs, let’s look at some of the hot options heading into Week 13. […]

Week 13 Quarterbacks - Waiver Wire Pickups and Adds

We've got some exciting options still on waivers this week, as a few potentially league-winning quarterbacks are still available in far too many leagues. There are no more bye weeks, which means fewer owners will need fill-in quarterbacks. It also means there will be less competition on waivers for quarterbacks, and a few high-end backups […]

Thus begins the true must-win environment in FF, and we here at RotoBaller are here to help. In order to get you waiver information as fast (and as accurately) as possible, so […]

David Moore (WR, SEA) - Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 10% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The first time I mentioned Seattle Seahawks wide receiver David Moore in the weekly waiver wire series, I had him listed as a touchdown-dependent grab if you were dealing with injuries or bye weeks. Moore showed me a receiver with a decent ceiling […]

The Cut List - Players on the Chopping Block (Week 13)

This is your weekly list of players to drop. I will do my best to limit this list to injured players and players you might consider holding. If you roster pure handcuffs or backups, obviously you can let them go at any time. The players on this list will, ideally, be guys that aren't clearly […]

Sebastian Janikowski Drills Game-Winner

Seattle Seahawks kicker Sebastian Janikowski smacked the 33-yard game-winner through like it was no big deal on Sunday. SeaBass was perfect on three field goal attempts to help guide Seattle to another close win over a tough NFC foe, and he finished November with an 80% make rate on field goal attempts. His only miss […]

Bradley McDougald Saves The Day

Seattle Seahawks safety Bradley McDougald took a page out of Richard Sherman's playbook by making a game-saving interception in the end zone. McDougald's move of tipping the ball up and gathering it for himself was reminiscent of Sherman's famous play against the 49ers in 2014, and the move likely kept Seattle's playoff hopes alive once […]

Doug Baldwin Leads Seahawks In Targets

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Doug Baldwin may have been a last-second activation, but he still led the team in targets once again. Unfortunately, all those targets didn't add up to a whole lot. Baldwin finished the day with just 39 yards on five catches, and he was held scoreless. Baldwin was likely hampered a bit […]

David Moore Makes The Highlights Again

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver David Moore seems to just have that it factor. Like a superhero who just happens to always be in the right place at the right time, Moore has an innate knack for making phenomenal plays. This week, Moore battled to bring in a 45-yard touchdown. Alone, it was an amazing catch. […]

Tyler Lockett Tops 100 Yards

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver/returner Tyler Lockett hauled in a 43-yarder in the last minute of regulation to set up Seattle's game-winning field goal, and the catch put him over the century mark for the first time in more than a year. Lockett also snagged a touchdown, giving him eight on the season. That marches a […]

Chris Carson Sticks The Landing

Seattle Seahawks running back Chris Carson didn't post great stats on Sunday, but he'll be the talk of the town anyway. As has become popular in recent years, Carson attempted to hurdle a defender who went low for the tackle, but Carson didn't quite clear the tackle. Instead, he clipped the top of the defender […]

Russell Wilson Leads Comeback Victory For Seattle

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson stayed calm and guided the team to a comeback win over the Panthers on Sunday. Though he was held without a touchdown pass in the first half, Wilson calmly threw two in the second half, including a 35-yard strike to David Moore on a 4th-and-3 to tie the game. Wilson […]

Doug Baldwin Active Against Panthers

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Doug Baldwin (groin) is active for Week 12 against the Panthers despite not practicing all week. Running back C.J. Prosise continues to be a healthy scratch, while linebacker K.J. Wright (knee) also remains out of action. Baldwin had one of his best games of the season last week with seven catches […]

Under-the-Radar Booms/Busts: Week 12

There will be a lot less scoring in fantasy football games in Week 12. Coming on the heels of the highest-scoring game in Monday Night Football history, the Los Angeles Rams and Kansas City Chiefs get a well-deserved breather this week.

KJ Wright Out Again

Seattle Seahawks linebacker KJ Wright is out for Sunday's game against Carolina due to recurring knee issues, and that makes Seattle's defense a questionable play. Carolina isn't exactly an offensive powerhouse, but Seattle has been ripped by patterns across the middle this year. The Panthers have hung a lot of points on a couple soft […]

David Moore Is A Solid Sleeper In Week 12

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver David Moore has thrived in his role of "third receiver in charge of making it on Sportscenter," and he should have a wonderful opportunity to showcase himself once again this week. With starting wide receiver Doug Baldwin questionable due to a knee injury, Moore could see himself bumped up to a […]

Tyler Lockett Gets Another Opportunity

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett should have another golden opportunity on Sunday as he travels to Carolina. Lockett has been Seattle's most dependable receiver so far this season as No. 1 target Doug Baldwin has been shuffling through multiple injuries, and he should be the primary target this week again as Baldwin is hampered […]

Mike Davis Is Off To Obscurity

Seattle Seahawks running back Mike Davis looks like he's back to the back of the pack. Following a 15-carry outburst against the Chargers in which he only tallied up 62 yards, Davis watched his carries fall to 11 against the Rams and just four against the Packers. Obviously, with head coach Pete Carroll pulling the […]

Rashaad Penny Sees Ascendance Delayed

Seattle Seahawks rookie running back looked like his time may have come after he broke off 108 yards against the division-rival Rams two weeks ago, but he was quickly relegated back to the backup role last week against Green Bay. With Chris Carson once again looking like he's going to be the workhorse, Penny's value […]

Chris Carson Should Have Room To Work

Seattle Seahawks running back Chris Carson continues to lose some carries to the committee of Mike Davis and Rashaad Penny, but he's still clearly the primary back. Carson logged 17 carries for 83 yards and a touchdown in Seattle's narrow win over the Packers, and a similar line is likely this week against a mediocre […]

Russell Wilson Faces Carolina Again

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson might want to start looking into buying a place in Charlotte. In his six previous seasons, Wilson has faced the Panthers seven times, and this will make the fifth time he's played in the Tar Heel State (just as a professional, since he played there a lot while he was […]

JD McKissic Not Playing This Week

Seattle Seahawks running back JD McKissic returned to the practice field this week for the first time this season, but head coach Pete Carroll said he won't be active for the game against Carolina. Carroll told reporters that McKissic looked great in practice, but it wasn't a smart thing to try to push him into […]
