Should We Be Wary Of All Mets Starters?

On July 26th, 2012, the New York Mets called up a hard-throwing right-handed starting pitcher by the name of Matt Harvey. Harvey dazzled the Diamondbacks in Arizona that night, striking out 11 over 5 1/3 innings pitched without allowing any runs. This was supposed to mark a turning point in the Mets’ rebuild, the first […]

Addison Russell (SS, CHC) - 2017 Fantasy Baseball Sleepers & Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target ~110 CURRENT ADP: 133 ANALYSIS: While Addison Russell didn’t have the huge breakout many were projecting for him last year, he was still pretty darn good, hitting 21 home runs with 67 runs scored and 95 RBI while mostly batting seventh in the lineup. We saw big improvements in his plate discipline […]

2017 Fantasy Baseball Sleepers: Jerad Eickhoff

RotoBallers, It is Feb. 11th and we are all in midst of planning our upcoming baseball drafts. Naturally, that means one of the most popular questions being asked is “who are the top sleepers to target?” Of course, if we actually knew who the top sleepers were, then those players wouldn’t actually be sleepers. Thus, the […]

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 27% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Alex Smith has had an up-and-down season.

Colin Kaepernick (QB, SF) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 33% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: For Week 16, Colin Kaepernick sits at the top of a very thin pile of quarterback streaming options. After two down weeks, he returned to the fantasy-producing streamer we’ve become accustomed to seeing in Week 15 at Atlanta. The 49ers travel to […]

Joe Flacco (QB, BAL) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 29% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Joe Flacco has had an on-and-off 2016, looking great in some instances and mediocre in others. Whether you're a believer or not, he sits near the top of a thin streamer pile for Week 16. In standard leagues, he scored 29.24 points […]

Sam Bradford (QB, MIN) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 14- and 16-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 11% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Sam Bradford has quietly put together two consecutive quality fantasy outings against Dallas and Jacksonville after two duds against Arizona and Detroit. With the steam Bradford has been picking up as of late, he’s a no-brainer streamer against the Colts for Week […]

Alex Smith (QB, KC) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 27% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: After starting off Week 14 red hot against the Raiders, Alex Smith cooled off as the game went on, finishing with 264 yards, one touchdown and one interception. Week 15 brings another favorable matchup for Smith. While it’s far less certain he’ll […]

Colin Kaepernick (QB, SF) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 36% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Even after a so-so outing against the Jets in Week 14, Colin Kaepernick is the most appealing streamer this week against the NFL’s worst pass defense. The Falcons continue to be a defense to target in 2016, and for good reason. The […]

Week 15 QB Pickups & Streamers: One-QB & Two-QB Leagues

RotoBallers, Welcome back. As always this column will aim to highlight Week 15 waiver wire adds and streamers for quarterbacks, players that you should consider targeting on your league's waiver wire.

Alex Smith (QB, KC) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 48% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: After an extremely favorable showing in a difficult matchup at Denver in Week 12, Alex Smith could only muster 12.50 points in standard scoring leagues with a favorable matchup at Atlanta in Week 13. Given the way that game went though, there were more points to […]

Brock Osweiler (QB, HOU) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 10-Team 2QB and 12-Team STD Leagues OWNED IN: 25% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: I almost felt sick recommending Brock Osweiler as a streamer in two-quarterback leagues for Week 13, but he rewarded that recommendation handsomely with 202 yards and two touchdowns for 17.28 fantasy points in standard scoring leagues. With a road date in Indianapolis in […]

Ryan Fitzpatrick (QB, NYJ) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 10- and 12-Team 2QB Leagues OWNED IN: 38% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Not too long ago, it would have been unfathomable to consider streaming Ryan Fitzpatrick even in two-quarterback leagues. When the Jets returned from their bye week against the Pats though, Fitzpatrick looked more like the 2015 “Fitzmagic” than the quarterback we’ve seen for most […]

Jared Goff (QB, LA) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 10- and 12-Team 2QB Leagues OWNED IN: 17% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: A week after throwing three touchdowns in New Orleans, Jared Goff predictably fell way back down to earth in Week 13 when the Rams couldn’t get much going in New England. Week 14 poses a much easier matchup for the rookie quarterback when the […]

Colin Kaepernick (QB, SF) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 25% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Since taking over the 49ers’ starting quarterback job in Week 6, Colin Kaepernick has unexpectedly been a fantasy revelation. In standard leagues he’s scored at least 19.44 fantasy points in five of the six games he’s started, including 33.14 in Miami in […]

Ryan Fitzpatrick (QB, NYJ) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 14- and 16-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 16% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Ryan Fitzpatrick came up with his second-best game of the season against the Pats in Week 12, throwing for 269 yards and two scores in the loss. Of course, he also ended the game by coughing up a fumble, but that’s neither […]

Sam Bradford (QB, MIN) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in Two-Quarterback Leagues OWNED IN: 12% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: After a string of solid fantasy starts, Sam Bradford has had a rough couple of weeks. Over his past two games, he’s only thrown for 169 and 224 yards, respectively, with one touchdown pass. It’s a stark contrast from the two games prior, when […]

Alex Smith (QB, KC) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in Two-Quarterback Leagues OWNED IN: 25% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: With a matchup like against a team like the Falcons, Alex Smith would normally be an easy choice as a QB1 streamer. However, 2016 has not gone Smith’s way. His 230.8 yards passing per game are a career high, but his 54 yards rushing […]

Week 13 QB Pickups & Streamers: One-QB & Two-QB Leagues

RotoBallers, Welcome back. As always this column will aim to highlight Week 13 waiver wire adds and streamers for quarterbacks, players that you should consider targeting on your league's waiver wire.

Ryan Tannehill (QB, MIA) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 24% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Ryan Tannehill has had an up-and-down season, and while Week 11's effort was far from his best, it certainly wasn’t his worst, either. Traveling to the west coast to play the Rams, Tannehill only threw for 172 yards but also tossed two […]

Sam Bradford (QB, MIN) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 14- and 16-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 12% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Sam Bradford just keeps on chugging along in what has been a quietly efficient season for the veteran quarterback. Bradford wasn’t spectacular against Arizona’s elite pass defense in Week 11, but held his own by finishing 20-of-28 for 169 yards and a […]

Joe Flacco (QB, BAL) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 14- and 16-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 26% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Joe Flacco has done his part to take advantage of a weak schedule— over the last three weeks, he’s averaged 17.45 fantasy points. Baltimore’s nice schedule continues in Week 12 when they stay at home to take on the division rival Bengals. […]

Josh McCown (QB, CLE) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in Two-Quarterback Team Leagues OWNED IN: 1% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: With Cody Kessler suffering his second concussion of the season in Week 11, it’s highly probable we’ll see Josh McCown under center for Cleveland in Week 12 against the Giants. McCown certainly didn’t impress on Sunday against Pittsburgh, nor did he in Week […]

Week 12 QB Pickups & Streamers: One-QB & Two-QB Leagues

RotoBallers, Welcome back.

Alex Smith (QB, KC) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 25% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Alex Smith returned from his concussion in Week 10 in what should have been a favorable matchup at Carolina, but the results simply weren’t there. He finished a very underwhelming 25-of-38 for 178 yards with an interception and no touchdowns. Things get […]
