Nathan Calderon - RotoBaller

47 articles

Ahoy. I'm a 19 year old journalism student trying my best to play some great fantasy sports. I like to give my opinions, so ask me for them, before I give them to you anyway. I'm not good at Twitter, so I'm gonna work at being better at it. Talk to me, I like that.

Week 15 Quarterbacks: Waiver Wire Pickups, Sleepers, & Playoff Rankings

What’s up Rotoballers, and welcome to prep for week fifteen of your fantasy football playoffs. Hopefully the first round of the playoffs went well for most of you. If you’re needing a boost heading into a tougher round two matchup, I’ve got the best guys to stream this week at the QB spot. Let’s get […]


Ryan Fitzpatrick (QB, HOU) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add as Streaming Option for Week 14 ANALYSIS: Coming off of an incredible Week 13 performance, Fitzpatrick is primed to have another big day facing a mediocre defense. I am in no way promising another six-touchdown performance from the Harvard product, but Fitzy has some serious starter potential this week, coming in as a low-to-mid QB1. […]


Teddy Bridgewater (QB, MIN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add for Week 14 (Streaming Option) ANALYSIS: It seems to be a staple in my streaming options to pick a QB that’s throwing against the Jets porous secondary. This week, the lucky QB is Teddy Bridgewater. If you’re desperate, Bridgewater is a low-end QB1, high-end QB2 this week based on the matchup. The […]

Week 14 Quarterbacks: Waiver Wire Pickups, Sleepers, Streamers & Rankings

The fantasy football playoffs are upon us, RotoBallers, and it’s time to prep you on QBs to stream for your playoff matchups if that's what you're looking for. With no byes from here on out, we'll be able to get the most out of streaming QB options in Week 14. I'm going to run down on your […]

Week 13 Quarterbacks: Waiver Wire Pickups, Sleepers, Streamers & Rankings

Hey there once again RotoBallers, and welcome to QB prep for fantasy football for week thirteen. If you’re making that playoff push, or plan to continue to stream quarterbacks to fantasy glory, this is the right place. With bye weeks over and done with, there’s no room for any weakness in your lineup, so let’s […]


Josh McCown (QB, TB) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues / Week 12 Streamer ANALYSIS: At the beginning of the year, I had high expectations for the former backup to Jay Cutler. He had all the weapons, the starting contract, and the offensive prowess. It was as though the stars had aligned for McCown, and I had him very high on my […]


Kyle Orton (QB, BUF) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues / Week 12 Streamer ANALYSIS: There are a number of reasons to give Orton a start this week outside of the fact that he has a great matchup facing the Jets. For example, Orton has only thrown three picks since he became the starter. His passer rating has only […]

Week 12 Quarterbacks: Waiver Wire Pickups, Sleepers, Streamers & Rankings

Hello once again RotoBallers, and welcome to my quarterbacks and waiver wire prep for Week Twelve of fantasy football. After some bizarre performances in the last couple of weeks from your week-to-week starting quarterbacks, this week is as good as any to stream your way into the fantasy football playoffs holy land. If you need […]


Robert Griffin (QB, WAS) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Startable in all 2-QB leagues this week and deep 1-QB leagues as well OWNED IN: 61% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Griffin has never been a guy I’ve trusted in fantasy. He’s too injury prone, but coming off of a bye in week 10, I think he has some dependability this week. Even with an extremely minimal […]


Teddy Bridgewater (QB, MIN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 2 QB Leagues / Stream for Week 11 OWNED IN: 18% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: My commentary on how bad the Bears defense has been will start and end here: on average, the Chicago Bears give up 277 passing yards per game (ranked 23rd), just over two touchdowns per game (ranked […]

Week 11 Quarterback Sleepers: Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds

Can we go another week with a QB tossing six touchdowns? Can Drew Stanton keep the Cardinals rolling? Is Mark Sanchez for real? These questions and more will be answered in preparation for Week Eleven here in my weekly quarterback waiver wire pickups and adds piece. Another exciting week of NFL and fantasy football action is […]


Austin Davis (QB, STL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 2 QB Leagues (Bye Week Fill-In) OWNED IN: 17% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Coming off of his worst performance on the season, Davis is definitely a guy most are ignoring this week. I can look past his poor Week , but hat I can’t look past is his matchup for the week. Davis is definitely […]


Joe Flacco (QB, BAL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues / Stream in Week 10 (Bye Week Fill-In) OWNED IN: 79% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Flacco is owned in a majority of leagues, but he's still sitting out there on some waiver wires. He should definitely be started in Week 10 against Tennessee, especially with all the byes. After the Week 11 bye, Flacco […]


Derek Carr (QB, OAK) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 2 QB Leagues / Deeper 1 QB Leagues (Week 10 Streamer) OWNED IN: 16% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: The Broncos will definitely beat the Raiders this week. That said, the clearly lopsided matchup could be a reason to give Carr a start. With the Raiders playing from behind, Carr will have certainly […]


Week 10 Quarterback Sleepers: Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds

Hey everyone, welcome to QB prep for Week 10. There’s not a ton of football left in the season, so hopefully you're all doing well. A heavy bye week this week finds Brady, Fitzpatrick, Rivers, Luck, Bridgewater and RGIII all off for the weekend. Whether you're looking for the push that could take you through […]


Brian Hoyer (QB, CLE) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Start him in 2-QB leagues, but set him aside in 1-QB leagues this week. Owned in 23% of leagues on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Brian Hoyer is a a guy I can’t seem to emphasize enough, as he is ridiculously consistent. He will put up a respectable point total again this week in a matchup with a miserable […]


Ryan Fitzpatrick (QB, HOU) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Start in all 2-QB leagues, as well as deep 1-QB leagues Owned in 23% of leagues on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: I know. You might all be saying, “But Nathan, Fitzy hasn’t thrown for over 300 yards once this year! And he has seven interceptions on the year! How can I trust him?” Simply put, […]


Alex Smith (QB, KC) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues / Stream in Week 9 Owned in 50% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: In recent weeks, Alex Smith has been quietly impressive in nearly all of his performances. While many of us get distracted with the works of Peyton Manning, Tom Brady, and Ben Roethlisberger, the 30-year-old QB has been excellent in […]

Week 9 Quarterback Sleepers: Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds

Hello once again RotoBallers, and welcome to our quarterback prep for Week Nine of the NFL season. It's incredible how quickly the season seems to be flying by. Week Eight was one to watch, and I was so excited after watching Monday night’s game that I had to sit down right away and get all […]


Joe Flacco (QB, BAL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Start in All Leagues in Week 8 Owned in 76% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Joe Flacco has played excellent football of late, racking up ten TDs in the last four weeks while only throwing three INTs. Excluding a lackluster performance at Lucas Oil Stadium in week five, Flacco has bolstered his fantasy value by […]


Kyle Orton (QB, BUF) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Start in 2-QB leagues and deep 1-QB leagues in Week 8 9% Owned in FleaFlicker ANALYSIS: Kyle Orton has been nothing but consistent since he took over the role of starting QB for the Bills in week five. In all three games, he has thrown for around 300 yards, at least one touchdown, and […]


Week 8 Quarterback Sleepers: Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds

Hello once again my friends, and welcome to week eight. We’re going to take a look at some waiver wire quarterbacks that I like for Week 8,  as well as a couple players who I want to believe in and a couple who I think are benchable.   My goal within this article is to recommend both […]


Week 7 Quarterback Sleepers: After the Waiver Wire

Hello once again RotoBallers, and welcome to Week 7 of NFL action. I apologize to you guys for not getting this out earlier in the week, but due to technical difficulties, I've been unable to get you my weekly QB updates until now. Alas, here we are. Even though waivers ran for most leagues last night, it’s never to late […]


Brian Hoyer (QB, CLE) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues / All 2 QB Leagues Owned in 14% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: After a dramatic comeback win at Tennessee that saw three touchdowns and 292 yards from the hands of Hoyer, the Browns host a middle-of-the-road Pittsburgh defense that gives up 229 yards per game on average. Three touchdowns […]


Austin Davis (QB, STL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues / All 2 QB Leagues 11% owned in Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Austin Davis has been a very solid fantasy QB for the last couple of weeks (Weeks Three and Five), posting three touchdowns and three-hundred plus yards in each start while only throwing two picks over those games. Though he has […]


Week 6 Quarterbacks: Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds

Welcome to our weekly preparation for week six of fantasy football for waiver wire quarterbacks We will be taking a look at some of my favorite QB picks for this week, as well as some outlooks on a couple of guys that I do and do not like for the rest of the season. Let’s […]


Eli Manning (QB, NYG) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues / All 2 QB Leagues Owned in 51% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Anyone who picked up Eli vs. the Redskins in Week 4 knows they might have gotten a career fantasy performance. His 4 passing TDs and 1 rushing TD were a thing to behold.  While we don’t expect him to […]


Blake Bortles (QB, JAX) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All 2 QB Leagues / Add in 12+ Team Leagues Owned in 23% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Though I find Bortles a bit over-hyped, he has a decent matchup this week and has legitimate value vs. the secondary that blew a big second half lead to Mike Glennon. Bortles looked good in week […]


Mike Glennon (QB, TB) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All 2 QB Leagues / Stream in 14+ Team Leagues Owned in 4% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: The Saints defense is one of the worst in the NFL, and they proved that again vs. the Dallas Cowboys in week four. They handed Romo and the ‘Boys 24 first downs and 445 total yards, 255 […]


Week 5 Quarterbacks: Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds

Hello once again my friends, and welcome to week five quarterback prep for fantasy football. I hope everyone had a solid week last week. Let’s take a look at some of the best matchups for week five if you’re streaming a QB this week. In addition to a few streamers that I'll dig into, I’ll […]
