BALLER MOVE: Start in 10+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR2 ANALYSIS: Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith has only finished with over 100 receiving yards once this season, but he's come so, so close lately, posting exactly 99 receiving yards in two of the last three games. That includes Monday's game against the Kansas City […]

Calvin Ridley - Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 12

BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR2 ANALYSIS: Last week, Calvin Ridley had his best game since joining the Jacksonville Jaguars, catching seven passes for 103 yards and two touchdowns while also adding an 18-yard carry as well.

Amari Cooper - Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 12

BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team PPR Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3/4 ANALYSIS: Cleveland Browns wide receiver Amari Cooper rates as a borderline WR3/4 play for Week 12's game against the Denver Broncos. Cooper's an extremely talented receiver, but uncertainty at QB for the Browns puts him in a dicey spot. Cooper has averaged 15.37 PPR […]

Deandre Hopkins - Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 12

BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3 ANALYSIS: Tennessee Titans wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins is a high-end WR3 option on Sunday when his team takes on the Carolina Panthers. Last week, Hopkins was targeted five times in a 34-14 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. He caught four of those passes for 59 […]

Nico Collins - Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 12

BALLER MOVE: Start in 10+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR2 ANALYSIS: Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins is a strong fantasy WR2 play heading into Sunday's meeting with the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Tyler Conklin - Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 12

BALLER MOVE: Start in 14-Team TE-Premium Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: TE2 ANALYSIS: The New York Jets offense is a huge mystery heading into Week 12 as the team starts Tim Boyle at quarterback over Zach Wilson. In theory, the Jets are hoping this move jumpstarts the offense, but the reality is that Boyle has struggled in […]

Tua Tagovailoa - Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 12

BALLER MOVE: Start in 14-Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: QB2 ANALYSIS: Usually, Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tua Tagovailoa is a clear QB1 option in fantasy. He's got arguably the best one-two punch at wide receiver in the NFL with Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle and he plays in an offense where he can rack up passing […]

Tim Boyle - Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 12

BALLER MOVE: Sit In All Formats POSITIONAL VALUE: QB3 ANALYSIS: The New York Jets have made a change at quarterback this week, but don't expect big numbers from the new guy at the position, Tim Boyle. Boyle came in against Buffalo in relief of Zach Wilson, who was benched for his poor play. The results […]

Jaylen Waddle - Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 12

BALLER MOVE: Start in 10+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR2 ANALYSIS: Last week with the Miami Dolphins coming off of a bye, wide receiver Jaylen Waddle saw eight targets, catching four of those for 55 yards against the Raiders. It was the fourth time in his last five games that he's had at least 50 […]

Garrett Wilson - Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 12

BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3 ANALYSIS: The New York Jets have made a change at quarterback, going with Tim Boyle over Zach Wilson this week against Miami. That introduces some added uncertainty for wide receiver Garrett Wilson, who had developed a good rapport with Wilson. While Garrett Wilson was shut […]

Sam Howell - Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 12

BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Two-Quarterback Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: QB2 ANALYSIS: No team in the NFL is throwing the football as much as the Washington Commanders, who average an NFL-high 40.2 pass attempts per game. That's translated into some big numbers for quarterback Sam Howell, who currently leads the NFL in completions, attempts, and […]

Brock Purdy - Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 12

BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: QB1 ANALYSIS: San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy has been playing some really good football lately. Last week against the Buccaneers, he was 21-for-25 for 333 yards and three touchdowns in the 27-14 win. It was the second game in a row that Purdy has thrown […]

Geno Smith - Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 12

BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Two-Quarterback Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: QB2 ANALYSIS: Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith is dealing with a tricep contusion, but the Seahawks expect Smith to play on Thursday when the team takes on the San Francisco 49ers.

Christian McCaffrey - Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 12

BALLER MOVE: Start in All Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: RB1 ANALYSIS: At this point, San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey is in his own tier at running back. He's found the end zone at least once in all but one game this season and has only failed to hit 100 scrimmage yards three times all […]

Jahmyr Gibbs - Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 12

BALLER MOVE: Start in All Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: RB1 ANALYSIS: Last week, the return of David Montgomery was expected to eat into rookie Jahmyr Gibbs' touches. It did, to an extent, as Gibbs had just eight carries, ending a streak of three consecutive games with double-digit carries. Still, Gibbs managed to score a rushing touchdown […]

Tony Pollard - Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 12

BALLER MOVE: Start in All Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: RB1 ANALYSIS: Dallas Cowboys backup running back Rico Dowdle has seen some increased usage over the last two games, but so far that hasn't had a huge impact on starting running back Tony Pollard. Pollard enters this Thanksgiving Day matchup with the Washington Commanders with five consecutive […]

Rico Dowdle - Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 12

BALLER MOVE: Start in 14+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: RB4 ANALYSIS: This just seems to be the way things go for the Dallas Cowboys. It happened with Ezekiel Elliott, as everyone kept saying "wow, Tony Pollard might be better than him" and it's happening again with Pollard, with a growing contingent of voices advocating for […]

CeeDee Lamb - Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 12

BALLER MOVE: Start in 8+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR1 ANALYSIS: Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb is arguably the top fantasy wide receiver heading into Thursday's game against the Washington Commanders. The Commanders have been one of the worst pass defenses in the NFL this season, allowing the third-most fantasy points per game to […]

Jameson Williams - Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 12

BALLER MOVE: Start in 14+ Team PPR Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR5 ANALYSIS: Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams continues to frustrate fantasy managers with his uneven production. The second-year receiver has displayed some big-play ability this season but just hasn't produced consistently enough to be a reliable fantasy option. Take last week against the Bears […]

Sam LaPorta - Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 12

BALLER MOVE: Start in All Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: TE1 ANALYSIS: Detroit Lions rookie tight end Sam LaPorta remains a top fantasy option at the position heading into Thursday's meeting with the Green Bay Packers, even after a disappointing effort last week against the Bears. Despite playing 85% of Detroit's offense snaps, LaPorta had just three […]

Logan Thomas - Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 12

BALLER MOVE: Start in 12-plus team leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: TE1/2 ANALYSIS: Washington Commanders tight end Logan Thomas rates a borderline TE1 play heading into Thursday's Thanksgiving showdown in Dallas against the Cowboys. Thomas has been the beneficiary of a high-volume Commanders offense this season. While the team has struggled at times to win games, quarterback […]

Luke Musgrave - Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 12

BALLER MOVE: Bench in all formats POSITIONAL VALUE: N/A ANALYSIS: Edit: Musgrave has been placed on the Injured Reserve with a lacerated kidney and will miss at least four games. Green Bay Packers rookie tight end Luke Musgrave had a bit of a letdown in Week 11, catching four passes for 28 yards in his team's […]

Noah Fant - Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 12

BALLER MOVE: Sit in all formats POSITIONAL VALUE: TE3 ANALYSIS: The 2023 season has been largely forgettable for Seattle Seahawks tight end Noah Fant. While he went over 40 receiving yards in three of the team's first four games, his production has fallen off a cliff since. In the last six games, Fant has finished […]
