BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- an 14-Team Leagues, All PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 47% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Phillip Dorsett has been targeted plenty over the first two weeks, and considering how great Andrew Luck's start to the season has been, those targets mean a whole lot.

NFL Survivor League Picks – Survivor Pool Targets and Avoids (Week 2)

It was one of the best opening weekends the NFL has had in some time. Week 1 ended after the ultimate duel between Case Keenum and Blaine Gabbert. They combined to throw for 300 total yards.

Baller Move: Add in All Leagues Owned in: 46% of Fleaflicker Leagues Analysis: Despite a combined 2,600 yards and 12 TDs in his final two seasons at UMass, Tajae Sharpe slipped to the 5th round of the 2016 NFL Draft and rewarded the Titans for their faith in Week One.

Detroit Lions (DEF, DET) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 14- and 16-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 11% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: The Lions, like the Raiders, got torn up by a hot offense in Week 1. The Titans are NOT a hot offense. I like them as a deep league streamer against a young Titans offense that is still getting things together. If they can keep DeMarco […]

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 83% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Minnesota was the pleasant defensive surprise in Week 1, as they sprang a pick-six and a fumble recovery TD off Marcus Mariota. They won't be so lucky in their matchup against Aaron Rodgers and the Packers in Week 2 but I still think there is some […]

Baller Move: Add in 12- and 14-Team Leagues Owned In: 84% of Fleaflicker Leagues Analysis: By averaging only 6.6 yards per-attempt against the Vikings in Week One, Marcus Mariota did not look the part of a franchise NFL QB.
