How Is Allen Hurns So Underowned? Add Him Everywhere

When a defense uses their top corner on the offense's best receiver, good things happen for the #2. That was exactly the circumstance for Allen Hurns on Sunday as the Colts shadowed Allen Robinson with Vontae Davis. Hurns responded by catching 11 of 15 targets for 116 yards and a score. Hurns has now scored in back-to-back […]

Week 5 Deeper Sleepers: Buying the Browns?

Welcome to our season-long segment at RotoBaller where we will be targeting players owned in 25% or less of Fleaflicker leagues. A couple picks put up solid performances (Ryan Fitzpatrick, Falcons D) while Ty Montgomery stunk the bed. Can't hit 'em all. Week 4 was a great week for DFS players, with Josh McCown, Tavon Austin, and Allen […]

Ty Montgomery (WR, GB) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 10% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: While Davante Adams owners were disappointed with his MNF dud (two targets, zero catches, left early after re-aggravating his ankle), WR-needy owners were thrilled to see a potential opening in the high-powered Green Bay offense. The main beneficiary would be Ty Montgomery, who […]

Week 4 Deeper Sleepers: Speculating Green Bay Touches and Bye-Week Fillers

Welcome to our season-long segment at RotoBaller where we will be targeting players owned in 25% or less of Fleaflicker leagues. The Buffalo Bills are going to be hot commodities (Tyrod Taylor (43%), Karlos Williams (31%) and Charles Clay (33%)) on the waiver wire, but they are too heavily owned for this segment. Plus, if you've been following along, you […]

FanDuel DFS - MLB Lineup Picks, Sleepers, and Advice for 9/30

What's up RotoBallers. We've reached the end of our run. I hope my plays have been helpful throughout the year and I've enjoyed being along for the ride with you all. Today we have 18 (!) games on the docket thanks to three rainouts last night, although only 15 will be available to pick from. […]

Ryan Fitzpatrick (QB, NYJ) - Waiver Wire Analysis

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues / Bye Week Fill-In OWNED IN: 25% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Staying on the trend of bye-week replacements, Tom Brady and Marcus Mariota owners are going to need a contingency plan this week. Why not give the Harvard Grad a shot? Fitzpatrick has now thrown at least two touchdowns in each game […]

Richard Rodgers (TE, GB) - Waiver Wire Analysis

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 25% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Calling all Rob Gronkowski and Delanie Walker owners. Here's where we enter the bye-week fillers section of our segment. Grabbing a share of the Green Bay offense is never a bad idea, and there's a good chance Richard Rodgers sees an increased role […]

Kenny Britt (WR, STL) - Waiver Wire Analysis

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 19% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: If you go on WebMD and search for "migraine symptoms" you'll find Kenny Britt as the fourth-leading factor. A head-case on and off the field, Britt came through for owners willing to roll the dice in week 3 versus a putrid Steelers defense […]

FanDuel DFS - MLB Lineup Picks, Sleepers, and Advice for 9/23/15

What's up RotoBallers. Welcome to the second-to-last edition of my FanDuel analysis for DFS contests. Two early games on the slate (CHW/DET, LAA/HOU), so make sure to double-check lineups before 1:08 PM ET. A trio of $10K+ aces on the mound tonight, although there's some solid value plays to consider at pitcher. My goal as always is to […]

Leonard Hankerson (WR, ATL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues (14+) OWNED IN: 6% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: As a Falcons fan, this pains me to say. But it's looking like Roddy White is getting phased out of the offense. When asked about his one-target, no catch performance on Sunday, he told reporters there wasn't any extra attention paid to him by […]

Cleveland Browns (DEF, CLE) - Waiver Wire Analysis

BALLER MOVE: Matchup Streamer (FAAB: $2) OWNED IN: 12% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Talk about a complete 180. After registering zero points in standard leagues Week 1, they put 21 this week. The Browns came out in their home opener, and emasculated Marcus Mariota and the Titans. They harassed him for seven sacks and added three fumbles (two […]

Leonard Hankerson (ATL, WR) - Waiver Wire Analysis

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues (FAAB Bid: $3-5) OWNED IN: 4% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Roddy White owners are freaking out. Hankerson was buried in Washington for a while, and never really did anything special. It was speculated that if Roddy White gets hurt, Hankerson could step into some nice value as a WR2 in […]

Crockett Gillmore (TE, BAL) - Waiver Wire Analysis

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues (FAAB Bid: $7-9) OWNED IN: 4% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Watch out AFC North: Joe Flacco has found his next Dennis Pitta, and he's got an awesome name. Crockett Gillmore has emerged as the #2 option after Steve Smith Sr. in the Ravens offense, and has earned the majority of time […]

James Starks (RB, GB) - Waiver Wire Analysis

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues (FAAB: $18-25) OWNED IN: 14% Owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Calling Starks a sleeper at this point may be a stretch, but we're going to discuss him anyways. Eddie Lacy gave fantasy owners a heart attack on Sunday night when he took a rough fall on his ankle, immediately leading pundits to wonder […]

Week 3 Sleepers: Last Call for Tyrod Taylor, Hedging Eddie Lacy

Welcome to our season-long segment at RotoBaller where we will be targeting players owned in 25% or less of Fleaflicker leagues. Matt Jones (42%) and Dion Lewis (32%) make for great FAAB claims, but they're too heavily owned for this segment. Week 2 was not easy on a lot of fantasy teams. Carlos Hyde and Eddie […]

Week 2 Deeper Sleepers: T-Mobile and Replacement WR Options

Welcome to our season-long segment at RotoBaller where we will be targeting players owned in 25% or less of Fleaflicker leagues. So while both Percy Harvin (41%) and Chris Johnson (48%) are obvious targets in this week's waiver wire, they don't make our cut. I'll try to include a player from every position (including D/ST), as long as […]

Donte Moncrief (WR, IND) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 39% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Don't be fooled by the fact T.Y Hilton is questionable for week 2 versus the New York Jets: Moncrief is a legit option in Indy's passing attack. With questions pertaining who would take hold of the WR3 role between Moncrief and Phillip Dorsett, Moncrief went undrafted […]

Cole Beasley (WR, DAL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 8% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: While Dez Bryant owners are still sobering up to the fact they lost their first round pick for six weeks (at least), those owners desperate for WR are rejoicing. Terrance Williams is expected to slide into the WR1 role, which leaves us with […]

FanDuel DFS - MLB Lineup Picks, Sleepers, and Advice for 9/16/2015

What's up RotoBallers. Welcome to another edition of my FanDuel analysis for DFS contests. No early games on the slate so there are tons of options to choose from. The plan today is to invest at pitcher and find some value bats, as you'll see below. My goal as always is to help you find matchups for your DFS […]

Starting Pitcher Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 24: Playoff Time

Welcome to the playoffs. It's a nerve-racking time when one disastrous pitching outing can be fatal. This week (and hence forth) I'm going to mix it up with my waiver wire material and focus on not only good pitching options, but also good pitching matchups for that particular week. All that matters at this point is getting […]

What's up RotoBallers. Welcome to another edition of my FanDuel analysis for DFS contests. There is a full slate of games with only one early game (Cubs at Cardinals), so there's a healthy group of options. The plan today is to save some coin at pitcher and stock up on some quality bats, as you'll […]

Derek Holland (TEX, SP) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All leagues OWNED IN: 45% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: The Texas Rangers have clawed their way to the second Wild Card spot and their pitching staff deserves a fair share of the credit, from Cole Hamels to Yovanni Gallardo to Derek Holland. Holland can't seem to stay healthy for full campaigns, but when he pitches […]

Bartolo Colon (NYM, SP) - Waiver Wire Analysis

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues / Matchup Streamer OWNED IN: 50% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: In case you were curious if I am picking on the Braves, you are right. They have become the new Padres - the team you'd be willing to throw just about any pitcher out there. Good news for us is Bartolo Colon […]

Steven Matz (NYM, SP) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All leagues OWNED IN: 54% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANAL:YSIS:It's likely Steven Matz is already scooped up in your league or was sitting in an owner's DL slot. If, for some reason, he's still out there you need to move fast. His ownership has already spiked 10% in the past 24 hours and […]

Starting Pitcher Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 23: Grabbing Mets and More

Welcome to Week 23. Most of you are either in the playoffs at the moment or in the week before playoff action begins so I'll start by saying congratulations for still reading along, because that means you're still in the fight. This week (and hence forth) I'm going to mix it up with my waiver wire […]

Welcome back to our quest for two-start pitchers. Most leagues are in the playoff portion of the schedule or are on the verge, so every move you make carries an extra level of importance. We will take a look at four hot pitchers who have upside and two ideal matchups this week. If you are looking […]

Jorge De La Rosa (COL, SP) - Waiver Wire Analysis

BALLER MOVE: Matchup Streamer OWNED IN: 6% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: I know what you're thinking. You want me to trust a Rockie in a win-or-go-home scenario!? Well what if I told you that a) the game is not at Coors and b) the pitcher of interest has a 3.22 ERA and a .227 BAA in 72.2 innings. Throw […]
