We’re at the point of the season where just one more win may get you into the postseason, and just one more loss may keep you out. It may be the most wonderful time of the year as far as holiday season, but in fantasy football land, this is the end of the line for […]
Week 12 QB Waiver Wire Streamers: Jameis Winston, Brock Osweiler, Johnny Manziel
In Week 11, all three of my waiver wire streamers from last week's column reached double digits, but none of them really went off. I felt like Ryan Fitzpatrick really didn’t play well at all but he saved his day with a rushing score. On the opposite end, Alex Smith had a great game with […]

Chris Ivory, Doug Martin, Mark Ingram: Running Backs Showing Warning Signals?
The 2015 fantasy season has essentially become a battle to see who the last team standing is. I mean that as close to literally as possible.

Tight Ends Waiver Wire: Week 10 Pickups and Adds
Fantasy football gets a little more back to normal this week after owners had to suffer through a bye week where a half-dozen teams were off.

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 50% Ownership on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: The hardest market to find waiver pickups is always at tight end. ASJ should be returning to the lineup next week (or soon), and should have the highest upside of any tight end you can find on the waivers. The Buccaneers are going […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 38% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: I think Marcus Mariota has received more recognition for some big numbers and a big OT win in Week 9.

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 […]

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 […]
Potential Booms and Busts for Week 7: The Early Games
As we approach the halfway mark of the fantasy football season, it's a great time to think about how unpredictable this year has been.

Charles Sims (RB, TB) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-14 team leagues OWNED IN: 19% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Charles Sims was a much-hyped pre-draft sleeper in the Buccaneers backfield, even though he was always considered a backup to incumbent starter Doug Martin.

Running Backs Waiver Wire: Week 6 Pickups & Adds
If my friends didn't use such horrific language, I'd post a screenshot of the string of separate text messages I got at 2:53 pm on Sunday. All of them were along the lines of "Nooooooo" or "Not again!" or "he looked like he got shot!" 2:53 pm will be the minute in time that changes […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 50% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: It's really unfortunate that Doug Martin had such a great Sunday because Charles Sims continues to show flashes of being a very effective running back.
