Defenses to Stream Against with Confidence
A football player is only as good as his matchup. For players on the fringes of fantasy rosters, that proves to be true more often than not. Take Blake Bortles, who has an average of 25.82 points per game (standard, four-point per passing touchdown) against weak pass defenses, such as the Chiefs, Patriots, and Jets. […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 18% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Jameis Winston and the Buccaneers were on bye this week, but with him being declared the starter in Tampa Bay Winston can be a viable fantasy quarterback again.

Mitch Trubisky (QB, CHI) - Week 6 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 23% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Despite his six-touchdown performance in Week 4, Chicago Bears quarterback Mitch Trubisky saw his ownership only go up 8% compared to last week. Perhaps that is because he had a bye in Week 5, or perhaps it speaks to the depth at quarterback in […]

Week 6 Quarterback Waiver Wire Adds and Pickups
Week 5 was a week of duds for many at the quarterback position, with ten starting quarterbacks scoring fewer than 15 fantasy points based on standard scoring. Some of those quarterbacks being universally owned and started as well. Disappointing performances aside, there were still plenty of encouraging games from low-owned quarterbacks. Detroit and New Orleans […]

Sam Darnold (QB, NYJ) - Week 6 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 2QB Leagues OWNED IN: 7% of Leagues ANALYSIS: No one should look at New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold and his three touchdown performance in Week 5 against Denver as his breakout game. He was only 10-for-22 passing with 198 yards, and nearly 40% of those yards came on one play, a […]

Baker Mayfield (QB, CLE) - Week 6 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 2 QB Leagues OWNED IN: 37% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield didn’t have the most outstanding fantasy day in Week 5, putting up 18.9 points in standard leagues.

C.J. Beathard (QB, SF) - Week 6 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 2 QB Leagues OWNED IN: 4% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Another week, another over-performance from San Francisco 49ers quarterback C.J. Beathard. This week he went 34-for-54 passing for 349 yards along with two touchdowns and two interceptions. That makes him a top-10 quarterback this week heading into Monday Night Football. Some of the […]

Danny Amendola Catches Three Passes In Week 5
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Danny Amendola turned in another low-output week in the Dolphins 27-17 loss to the Bengals in Week 5. Amendola caught three passes for 30 yards on four targets. This offense can hardly sustain even one valuable fantasy receiver and with Amendola clearly third on the depth chart behind Kenny Stills and […]

Albert Wilson Hauls In Five Catches In Week 5
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Albert Wilson caught five passes in the Dolphins 27-17 loss to the Bengals in Week 5. He gained 43 yards on those five receptions and was target six times.

Kenny Stills Turns In A Dud In Week 5
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Kenny Stills was practically absent in the Dolphins' 27-17 loss to the Bengals in Week 5. He caught just two passes for 17 yards on five targets. Stills was certainly on the "bust" end of his boom-or-bust outcomes. His volatility is exacerbated by the poor play of quarterback Ryan Tannehill, because […]

Frank Gore Rushes For 63 Yards In Week 5
Miami Dolphins running back Frank Gore was the team's leading rusher in their 27-17 loss to the Bengals in Week 5. Gore rushed 12 times for 63 yards, though he was absent from the pass game and was out-gained by fellow running back Kenyan Drake 115-63. At this point in his career Gore is a […]

Ryan Tannehill Throws Two Interceptions In Week 5 Loss
Miami Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill struggled in Miami's Week 5 27-17 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. He went 20-for-35 passing for 185 yards with one touchdown and two interceptions. This was seemingly an opportunity for a bounce back from Tannehill, as Cincinnati had been shredded the week before by Matt Ryan and the Falcons. Tannehill […]

Danny Amendola A Poor Fantasy Option In Week 5
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Danny Amendola is a low-end fantasy option in Week 5 against the Cincinnati Bengals. The Bengals have allowed the ninth most fantasy points to wide receivers this season, however Amendola has been so un-involved in the offense that he offers little fantasy appeal. He has just 16 targets and 13 catches on […]

Frank Gore A Flex Option In Week 5

Gore out-touched and out-gained fellow running back Kenyan Drake in Week 5, as well as playing on 51% of snaps compared to Drake's 45%. This is a neutral matchup, as the Bengals have allowed the 14th most fantasy […]

Albert Wilson A WR4 In Week 5
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Albert Wilson is a low-end fantasy option in Week 5 against the Cincinnati Bengals. The Bengals have allowed the ninth most fantasy points per game to wide receivers and the seventh most passing yards.

Kenny Stills A High-Upside WR3 In Week 5
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Kenny Stills is a high-upside WR3 in Week 5 against the Cincinnati Bengals. The Bengals have allowed the ninth most fantasy points per game to wide receivers this season and the seventh most passing yards.

Derek Carr (QB, OAK) - Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 35% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Perhaps we collectively gave up on Oakland Raiders quarterback Derek Carr too early.

Blake Bortles (QB, JAC) - Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 32% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It’s been up-and-down for Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Blake Bortles during the first four weeks of the season. He had 14.3 points in Week 1, 33.5 in Week 2, 8.9 in Week 3, and 25.3 in Week 4. It looks like Bortles can handle […]

Mitch Trubisky (QB, CHI) - Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 15% of Leagues ANALYSIS: If we learned anything this week it’s that you can start everybody against Tampa Bay. Their secondary is constructed full of no-names, and the names most people might recognize are not for good reasons. Brent Grimes looks every bit his age at 35, […]

C.J. Beathard (QB, SF) - Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 3% of Leagues ANALYSIS: While ultimately outdueled by Philip Rivers, San Francisco 49ers quarterback C.J. Beathard played admirably in his season debut last week against the Chargers. He was 23-for-37 passing with 298 yards and two touchdowns with two interceptions. It wasn’t a masterful performance by any means, […]
