BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 11% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: The Los Angeles Rams are in a tough spot at wide receiver. Entering the year, the duo of Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp gave L.A. one of the best receiving units in the league, but Nacua could be out half of the season with a knee issue and Kupp injured his ankle on Sunday.
The really fun part about fantasy is you spend months figuring out the perfect strategy
You draft what you think is the perfect team
And then in Week 2 you have 3 players on IR and youre starting Tyler Johnson and Alexander Mattison
I really love that

That could open the door for Tyler Johnson, who was targeted seven times in the Week 1 loss to the Lions and then three times in Week 2 against Arizona. Overall, he has seven catches for 99 yards through two games. The former Buccaneer looks on pace to have his best NFL season.
Most notable for fantasy managers who are trying to figure out where the value lies in Los Angeles is that Johnson played 87% of the team's offensive snaps this week. That wasn't quite at the level of Demarcus Robinson who played 92%, but it outpaced Jordan Whittington and Tutu Atwell.

BALLER MOVE: Don't Add ROSTERED IN: 3% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It's still not a good idea to use a waiver claim or even a bench spot on Buffalo Bills wide receiver Mack Hollins. He caught all four of his targets for 86 yards last week, but that performance was the exception rather than the rule […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 20% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The waiver period has passed, but Los Angeles Chargers running back Gus Edwards is still only rostered in 20% of Sleeper leagues.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED IN: 26% of Leagues ANALYSIS: DeMario Douglas once again led all Patriots wide receivers in receiving yards this past Sunday. New England has been maddeningly inconsistent with their wide receiver usage. However, the one constant has been Douglas. He looks like the team’s best pass catcher […]
Xavier Legette (WR, CAR) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 11
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED IN: 36% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Legette is coming off a bit of a disappointing game Sunday against the New York Giants. Carolina quarterback Bryce Young has played much better in his two-game return as the starter. This gives some hope for the Carolina passing game with […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 3% of Leagues ANALYSIS: For weeks it has been speculated that Estime would get more touches in Denver’s offense.
