Antonio Andrews (RB, TEN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

Though inconsistent in recent weeks, Antonio Andrews should be primed for one of his more productive outings of the season this week against the Jaguars. Andrews has established himself as the clear workhorse back for the Titans and should see enough volume to make him a decent flex play in most standard leagues. With 110... Read More

Alfred Morris (RB, WSH) - Waiver Wire Pickups

Atop the horrible NFC East, Redskins fans have to be happy with their team's place in the standings. But fantasy owners who spent an early-round draft pick on Alfred Morris have been disappointed with his inconsistent and declining production. Perhaps Morris has been more important to his real-life team. In four of the five Washington... Read More

Marvin Jones (WR, CIN) – Waiver Wire Pickups

Despite playing on a team that is full of offensive weapons, Marvin Jones has asserted himself as a useful fantasy option. Jones has 42 catches for 540 yards and three TDs on the season. He is on pace to come close to his numbers from his 2013 season, though he won’t match the 10 TDs. Jones... Read More

Jonathan Grimes (RB, HOU) - Waiver Wire Analysis

Despite some hope that Jonathan Grimes would see an increase in usage for the Texans, his fantasy production has stalled and owners should look elsewhere for deep-league flyers. Arian Foster's injury has allowed Alfred Blue to take over as the workhorse back. Blue has put up decent enough production that Grimes won't see many more... Read More

Chris Givens (WR, BAL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

Since being acquired from the Rams, Chris Givens has seen a steady rise in targets, but he hasn't turned the targets into much production yet. With 14 targets in the last two weeks, he only has six catches for 62 yards and a TD. His prospects of being Joe Flacco's new deep threat made him an interesting... Read More

Darren Sproles (RB, PHI) -Waiver Wire Pickups

After months of disappointing fantasy performance, Darren Sproles bounced back and was one of the few positives for the Eagles in their blowout loss to the Buccaneers. With three catches for 38 yards and a TD, Sproles had his first productive fantasy game since Week 3. He remains most valuable in PPR leagues, but with Ryan Mathews now out for... Read More

Coby Fleener (TE, IND) - Waiver Wire Pickups

While not the most exciting pickup, Coby Fleener offers some utility to fantasy players looking for value at a thin TE position. Fleener only has 36 catches for 325 yards and two TDs this season, disappointing owners who hoped he would replicate or improve last year's production. But he should continue to see enough targets to... Read More

Jay Cutler (QB, CHI) - Waiver Wire Pickups

The Bears aren't winning games yet, but Jay Cutler is starting to show up on fantasy radars again. After missing a game with an injury, Jay Cutler has been a capable QB in his last four games. He's actually been consistent. This season Jay Cutler has thrown for eight TDs and four INTs. In every game he... Read More

Jordan Reed (TE, WSH) - Waiver Wire Pickups

In every game he has played this year, Jordan Reed has been a focal point of the Redskins offense. Playing in just five games so far, Reed has 35 catches (on 47 targets) and 350 yards with three TDs. It looks like he could finish the year as a high-end TE, and given the lack of depth... Read More

Duke Johnson Jr. (RB, CLE) – Waiver Wire Pickups

Browns RB Duke Johnson Jr. has been an asset to fantasy players in PPR leagues this season. With the volume of injuries at the position over the last few weeks, it is time that players in all leagues consider adding the rookie. Johnson has struggled running the ball this season, averaging just 3.2 yards per... Read More

Kendall Gaskins (RB, SF) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ team leagues OWNED IN: 2% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: The past few weeks have been rough for the running back position. Keep it between us, but I may have cried with Le'Veon Bell this past Sunday. But it's important to power through the stages of fantasy grief and accept that you have... Read More

Tavon Austin (WR, STL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

Todd Gurley looks like he deserved the hype that moved him up fantasy draft boards, but he's not the only Ram breaking out this season. Tavon Austin is having the best year of his career, and has the explosive upside that he should be owned in almost every league. Austin has elite speed and elusiveness... Read More

Christine Michael (RB, DAL) – Waiver Wire Pickups

After reports that he would see increased usage in the run game, Christine Michael only had five carries for 18 yards last week. This was disappointing, and made worse when Darren McFadden took over for injured starter Joseph Randle. This week McFadden is one of the top pickups, but Michael still deserves a spot on... Read More

With a New OC, Will We See New Chances for Theo Riddick?

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 32% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Jim Bob Cooter. Yep, that's the name of the Lions new OC. That could mean good things for Theo Riddick, who's the most dynamic pass-catching back on the Lions. Going into this season Ameer Abdullah got most of the fantasy hype for... Read More

Zach Ertz (TE, PHL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ team leagues OWNED IN: 42% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: A popular sleeper pick at TE each year of his career, Zach Ertz still hasn't materialized into the fantasy asset that many thought he could be. Fantasy players who thought that Ertz could improve upon last year's solid numbers have been let down,... Read More

Joe Flacco (QB, BAL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

The Ravens have struggled this year (1-6), even though they have been in position to win almost every game. Joe Flacco hasn't lived up to his clutch reputation and has thrown three picks in drives that could have tied or won the game. But Flacco (61% owned) should still be on fantasy rosters in almost... Read More

Torrey Smith: Too Inconsistent to Start

A solid WR2 in every season of his career, this season might be the most frustrating yet for Torrey Smith's fantasy owners. Smith has been disappointing except for two big games in Week 2 and Week 6. His two touchdown catches (75 and 76 yard bombs) account for almost half of Smith's receiving yards. Smith... Read More

Leonard Hankerson (WR, ATL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

After several encouraging weeks earlier in the season, Leonard Hankerson has disappointed fantasy players recently. Hankerson only has five catches for 50 yards in his last two games. Hankerson (37% owned) may still be available in your league, and now is the time to pick him up. While Roddy White caught his first TD last... Read More

To Start, Or Not? Colin Kaepernick Is The Ultimate Coin Flip

It really hasn't been that long since most of the football world was talking about the future greatness of Colin Kaepernick. In his first two years as the starting QB for the 49ers, he took the team deep into the playoffs. He helped out many fantasy owners in that time as well. Unfortunately, Kaepernick hasn't... Read More

Blake Bortles (QB, JAC) - Waiver Wire Pickups

The Jaguars (1-5) still haven't turned into a winning NFL team, but Blake Bortles has looked like a solid fantasy quarterback. His 242 pass attempts on the season are third-most in the NFL. This season Bortles has been a quality option in every game after a sub-par Week 1, due in large part to the... Read More
