Wendell Smallwood (RB, PHI) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire

OWNED IN: 9% of leagues BALLER MOVE: Target ~195 CURRENT ADP: ~210 ANALYSIS: Even though Darren Sproles remains the most reliable back in the Philadelphia RB stable, Smallwood’s meager ownership share compared to LeGarrette Blount’s 85 percent is a bit odd. While it seems logical that Blount would be the go-to guy after being a beast in New England, he hasn’t […]

Charcandrick West (RB, KC) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire

OWNED IN: 13% of leagues BALLER MOVE: Target ~190 CURRENT ADP: ~220 ANALYSIS: I’ve had quite a bit of the Kareem Hunt KoolAid, but that doesn’t mean I’m not going to cover my butt with West. Even though the 26-year-old isn’t a world-beater, the Chiefs run an offense that flows through its running backs, whether that’s on the ground or […]

Jay Cutler (QB, MIA) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire

OWNED IN: 32% of leagues BALLER MOVE: Target ~210 CURRENT ADP: ~230 ANALYSIS: Whether this is reflective in our collective confidence in Miami as a whole, this marks the second season in a row where their starting QB is the first name owned in less than 50 percent of leagues. Available in two-thirds of leagues, Smokin’ Jay […]

Blake Bortles (QB, JAC) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire

OWNED IN: 18% of leagues BALLER MOVE: Target ~200 CURRENT ADP: ~250 ANALYSIS: I know, the guy looks broken. He finished 2016 with a fizzle after facing the Broncos, Vikings and Texans defenses in consecutive weeks -- though he had stunk long before then too. But here’s the thing, we don’t need a guy to be that great […]

Breshad Perriman (WR, BAL) - Fantasy Football Draft Value

BALLER MOVE: Target ~150 CURRENT ADP: ~192 ANALYSIS: Although the health Joe Flacco is in question, and Jeremy Maclin has been thrown into the mix, this wouldn’t be a deep sleepers list without Breshad Perriman. The first round, sophomore wide receiver has spent much of the offseason building rapport with his quarterback and remains one of the best red-zone threats on the roster. […]

Josh Doctson (WR, WAS) - Fantasy Football Draft Value

BALLER MOVE: Target ~140 CURRENT ADP: ~170 ANALYSIS: Many fantasy owners will suffer from recency bias with Washington wide receiver Josh Doctson, who was selected in the first round of the 2016 NFL Draft and touted as an athletic freak of nature. After suffering a torn Achilles as a rookie, the Washington receiver missed 14 games last […]

Taylor Gabriel (WR, ATL) - Fantasy Football Draft Value

BALLER MOVE: Target ~150 CURRENT ADP: ~170 ANALYSIS: The Atlanta Falcons chose to re-sign Taylor Gabriel this last offseason without much hesitation. The former undrafted player from Abilene Christian, who completed his third NFL season, tied Julio Jones for the team lead in touchdown receptions with six. The 5’8, 167 lb receiver averaged 42.7 yards on his touchdown receptions, the […]

Jack Doyle (TE, IND) - Fantasy Football Draft Value

BALLER MOVE: Target ~120 CURRENT ADP: ~135 ANALYSIS: In my opinion, the best value at the tight end position for 2017 is Indianapolis Colts tight end Jack Doyle. Now the unquestioned starting tight end for the Colts, Doyle managed to catch 59 passes for 584 yards and five touchdowns last season while working as second-fiddle to the now New […]

Eric Ebron (TE, DET) - Fantasy Football Draft Value

BALLER MOVE: Target ~115 CURRENT ADP: ~130 ANALYSIS: In the aftermath of posting career-highs in catches and yardage last season, Eric Ebron came out and said that he was constantly “banged up” throughout the year. Yet, he was still eighth among tight ends in yards and 10th in catches, and for the first time in his career, opponents […]

Austin Hooper (TE, ATL) - Fantasy Football Draft Value

BALLER MOVE: Target ~135 CURRENT ADP: ~160 ANALYSIS: The Atlanta Falcon operated with a committee approach for the tight end position in 2016, providing the rookie version of Austin Hooper with the needed time to transition to the demands of NFL competition. Overall, Falcons’ tight ends combined for 788 yards and 10 touchdowns while Jacob Tamme shared time with […]

Hunter Henry (TE, LAC) - Fantasy Football Draft Value

BALLER MOVE: Target ~90 CURRENT ADP: ~115 ANALYSIS: While it originally looked like Ladarius Green was going to be the Antonio Gates replacement, the successor role has been handed over to Hunter Henry, who showed plenty of flashes during his rookie year. Despite the fact that Gates is still hanging on by a thread, Henry should not be ignored […]

Jamaal Williams (RB, GB) - Fantasy Football Draft Value

BALLER MOVE: Target ~150 CURRENT ADP: ~165 ANALYSIS: Let's start by drafting a pass-catching back for one of the most pass-happy, score-happy, fantasy-friendly offenses in the league, shall we? Jamaal Williams is clearly behind Ty Montgomery on the Packers' depth chart, yes. But hear me out here. We heard of Montgomery's sickle cell trait issues towards the end of last […]

Rob Kelley (RB, WAS) - Fantasy Football Draft Value

BALLER MOVE: Target ~75 CURRENT ADP: ~87 ANALYSIS: Rob Kelley going in what basically amounts to the ninth round is pretty absurd to me. He's a starting running back on a great offense who has already shown he can produce. The reason he's being looked over is two-fold. First, folks look at his year-long stat line and […]

Thomas Rawls (RB, SEA) - Fantasy Football Draft Value

BALLER MOVE: Target ~110 CURRENT ADP: ~125 ANALYSIS: With all the attention on Eddie Lacy, Thomas Rawls is being overlooked as a late-round flier. The situation in Seattle is murky at best. There are three running backs of note, all of which can eat into each other's workload. To make matters worse, each one seems to have some sort […]

Julius Thomas (TE, MIA) - Fantasy Football Draft Value

BALLER MOVE: Target ~128 CURRENT ADP: ~167 ANALYSIS: I would like to reiterate some anecdotes I regurgitated during my bold predictions piece a few weeks ago. Quarterback Jay Cutler's best season came in 2015 under offensive coordinator Adam Gase. Now the head coach in Miami, Gase signed Cutler out of retirement to replace the injured Ryan Tannehill. Over the course of […]

Keenan Allen (WR, LAC) - Fantasy Football Draft Value

BALLER MOVE: Target ~25 CURRENT ADP: ~40 ANALYSIS: Keenan Allen returns to a revamped Los Angeles Chargers offense as the solidified target monster. The Los Angeles Chargers bolstered their offensive line notably in the NFL draft, selecting Forest Lamp and Dan Feeney. In addition to this, the Chargers also signed former Denver Broncos tackle, Russell Okung. These […]

John Brown (WR, ARI) - Fantasy Football Draft Value

BALLER MOVE: Target ~105 CURRENT ADP: ~123 ANALYSIS: Before he went out and lit up the Falcons for two touchdowns last week, John "Smokey" Brown was flying way under the radar in 2017. Due to difficulty recovering from injuries due to the sickle-cell trait, Brown missed most of 2016. But if you think back to 2015, Smokey hauled in […]

Pierre Garcon (WR, SF) - Fantasy Football Draft Value

BALLER MOVE: Target ~75 CURRENT ADP: ~65 ANALYSIS: In 2013, Garcon played his first full season in Kyle Shanahan's offense with the Redskins. He finished that year with a career high 113 Receptions and 1,346 Yards. Fast forward to 2017 and the two are reunited out in the Bay. Still 31 years young, Garcon is coming off […]

Theo Riddick (RB, DET) - Fantasy Football Draft Value

BALLER MOVE: Target ~80 CURRENT ADP: ~95 ANALYSIS: Riddick will again return to his role as the third-down back for a strong Lions offense. Even though Ameer Abdullah is the featured running back on this team heading into the season, Riddick should not be a forgotten man in PPR leagues. Last year, Riddick hauled in 53 catches while Abdullah […]

Bilal Powell (RB, NYJ) - Fantasy Football Draft Value

BALLER MOVE: Target ~60 CURRENT ADP: ~70 ANALYSIS: Bilal Powell had a solid 2016 campaign even with Matt Forte as the starter. In fact, the only real difference between the two was Forte getting the edge in touchdowns at seven to Powell's three. Powell, however, had a greater presence in the passing game. Throw in two games of over 100 rushing […]

Rishard Matthews (WR, TEN) - Fantasy Football Draft Value

BALLER MOVE: Target ~110 CURRENT ADP: ~125 ANALYSIS: It seems to me that we’re assuming a lot in disrespecting Matthews the way we, the fantasy community as a collective have disrespected him this draft season, drafting him behind both of his teammates, themselves new arrivals to Tennessee. Like Hogan, Matthews is a guy who made hay on […]
