Tyjae Spears (RB, TEN) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 6

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 26% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Spears is not just a handcuff. While he doesn't have a ton of standalone value, Spears has played 50% of the snaps in four out of five games and has seen at least eight touches in each of the past four games. […]

Roschon Johnson (RB, CHI) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 6

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 41% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Roschon Johnson is going to be the priority add this week at running back. News broke this weekend that starting running back Khalil Herbert will miss multiple weeks dealing with a right high-ankle sprain. That will put Johnson into the driver's seat to […]

Logan Thomas (TE, WAS) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 6

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 15% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Logan Thomas is likely the second-best player readily available on waivers behind Roschon Johnson. If Johnson is rostered, Thomas is likely to be the best waiver wire player available. He's played in three full games this season and left a fourth one early. […]

Jeff Wilson Jr. (RB, MIA) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 6

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 26% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Jeff Wilson Jr. could return in Week 6 after beginning the 2023 season on Injured Reserve. De'Von Achane (knee) is expected to miss multiple weeks, so Wilson could boom right away in the high-powered Dolphins' offense. Achane and Raheem Mostert have been fantasy […]

Trenton Irwin (WR, CIN) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 6

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED IN: 0% of Leagues ANALYSIS: With Tee Higgins (rib) out this week, Trenton Irwin saw a huge increase in workload. He'd been targeted once all year coming into this one, but he saw 10 targets in Cincy's win over the Cardinals. Irwin caught eight of those […]

Josh Reynolds (WR, DET) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 6

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 41% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Amon-Ra St. Brown was ruled out this past weekend with what has been described as an abdomen injury. There has been some speculation that he has a sports hernia, which has not been confirmed but could indicate a longer absence. In four […]

Sam Howell (QB, WAS) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 6

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 33% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Fantasy managers were likely very turned off by Sam Howell after his Week 3 dud against the Buffalo Bills. He scored just 0.6 points in that matchup, compiling four turnovers and not scoring a single touchdown. However, he's scored at least 15 points […]

Las Vegas Raiders (D/ST) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 6

BALLER MOVE: 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 1% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Mac Jones and the New England Patriots are coming off one of the worst two-game stretches in history. They have been outscored 72-3, while Jones has thrown for just 260 yards and turned the ball over six times during that span. This offense has been […]

Houston Texans (D/ST) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 6

BALLER MOVE: 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 28% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Houston’s defense now has three games this season in which they have recorded zero sacks. This lack of pressure is what is keeping the unit from being elite. That said, the Saints are averaging under 20 points per game and have allowed 17 sacks […]

Atlanta Falcons (D/ST) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 6

BALLER MOVE: 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 9% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Sam Howell is on pace to be sacked a ridiculous 98 times this season. While this obviously won’t happen, it goes to show how bad Washington’s offensive line has been. The team has turned the ball over 10 times through five games and has not […]

Ezekiel Elliott (RB, NE) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 6

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 44% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Ezekiel Elliott saw a season-high 46% snap share as a Patriot in Week 5 and has hauled in 15 passes on the season. All of a sudden, he has some PPR value as a desperation flex option. The Patriots offense is horrific […]

Kareem Hunt (RB, CLE) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 6

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 42% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Kareem Hunt's bye week could not have come at a better time. He joined the squad in Week 3 and has handled just 12 total touches in the absence of Nick Chubb (torn ACL). After a week off, he likely got more up […]

Samaje Perine (RB, DEN) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 6

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 45% of Leagues ANALYSIS: While most fantasy managers flocked to Jaleel McLaughlin with the news starting running back Javonte Williams would miss this past weekend, Perine still led the team in snaps and ran 28 routes to McLaughlin's 10. While McLaughlin did outscore Perine due to finding the end zone, […]

Jonathan Mingo (WR, CAR) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 6

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED IN: 8% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Jonathan Mingo missed Week 4 with a concussion but returned this past weekend and racked up seven targets, five receptions, and 48 yards. In four games this season, Mingo has had five or more targets in each contest. Considering his draft […]

K.J. Osborn (WR, MIN) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 6

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues ROSTERED IN: 9% of Leagues ANALYSIS: K.J. Osborn has taken a backseat this year to Justin Jefferson, T.J. Hockenson, and rookie Jordan Addison, but with Jefferson (hamstring) headed to Injured Reserve, Osborn could become a quality streamer for as long as he's out. Despite the crowded number of pass-catchers in Minnesota, Osborn […]

Quentin Johnston (WR, LAC) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 6

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 33% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Quentin Johnston didn't do much in the first game without starting receiver Mike Williams, who was lost for the year with a knee injury. The Chargers planned to bring Johnston along slowly, but that's no longer an option. He operated as the team's No. […]

Our fantasy football injury reports as of Tuesday, October 10 will give you the latest news […]

Desmond Ridder (QB, ATL) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 6

BALLER MOVE: Add in 2QB Leagues ROSTERED IN: 5% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Desmond Ridder’s production was underwhelming through the first four weeks of the season. And it looked like Week 5 would be no different for most of the game against the Houston Texans. Then the offense opened up and was forced to pass, which led […]

Dalton Schultz (TE, HOU) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 6

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 36% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Dalton Schultz needed three weeks to figure out his place in the Texans offense. Turns out he is now Houston’s second-best option in the passing attack behind breakout star Nico Collins. The former Dallas Cowboy has caught 10 of the 13 passes […]

Gerald Everett (TE, LAC) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 6

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 25% of Leagues ANALYSIS: We love Gerald Everett’s matchup this week, a home game against an Arizona Cardinals secondary that revitalized Joe Burrow and Ja’Marr Chase’s fantasy values this past Sunday. What I do not like is that 99 percent of Justin Herbert’s passes these days […]

Zach Ertz (TE, ARI) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 6

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 59% of Leagues ANALYSIS: You cannot quibble with a tight end averaging seven targets per game. Zach Ertz is not even averaging seven yards per catch, though, so steer clear from him in distance leagues where you get extra points for longer touchdowns. Zach Ertz find […]

Zach Charbonnet (RB, SEA) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 6

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 52% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The inclusion of Zach Charbonnet in this article is not a suggestion that he is looming as an immediate threat to confiscate Kenneth Walker’s role as Seattle’s lead back. However, Charbonnet should be among your targets on this week’s waiver wire. His […]

Jaylen Warren (RB, PIT) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 6

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED IN: 60% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Jaylen Warren was available in over 70% of all leagues as the regular season commenced. However, he has consistently demonstrated a higher level of efficiency than Najee Harris, and fantasy managers have steadily secured him for their rosters. This was a byproduct […]

D'Onta Foreman (RB, CHI) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 6

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 7% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Khalil Herbert’s problematic ankle is expected to sideline him for several games. That should relaunch D'Onta Foreman back to relevance after he had been relegated to healthy scratch status from Weeks 2-4. Roschon Johnson should operate with a substantial role whenever he […]

Jaleel McLaughlin (RB, DEN) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 6

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 58% of Leagues ANALYSIS:  Jaleel McLaughlin was located on the waiver wire in 97% of all leagues when this column was constructed one week ago. There is still an opportunity to add the explosive rookie, but that will evaporate this week. McLaughlin’s playmaking capabilities were on display […]

Zay Jones (WR, JAX) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 6

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED IN: 30% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Jones has played in three games this season but left one of them early due to a knee injury. However, he's logged five targets or more in all three contests. He's also found the end zone in the only two games […]

Kendre Miller (RB, NO) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 6

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 12% of Leagues ANALYSIS: With veteran running back Jamaal Williams inactive, Miller operated as the team's No. 2 running back behind starter Alvin Kamara. He logged 26 of the team's 72 snaps but handled 12 carries and received four targets. Their Week 5 contest was a massive blowout, shutting […]

Rashee Rice (WR, KC) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 6

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED IN: 39% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Rashee Rice continues to play very well despite limited opportunities. He's earned a target on 50% of his routes run, which is an absolutely ridiculous number. Despite playing less than 50% of the snaps through five weeks, Rice has managed to […]
