BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 8% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: New Orleans Saints kicker Blake Grupe finds himself on the top of our waiver wire priorities list once again, but Week 13 proved disappointing as he failed to attempt any field goals, managing only four successful extra points. This performance marked just the third time this season that the rookie kicker finished with fewer than seven points and notably the first game without any field goal attempts.

Heading into Week 14, the Saints will face the Panthers who have allowed the fifth-most points to kickers over the last four weeks. Grupe's lackluster Week 13 showing was influenced by the Saints' offense successfully scoring on all four of their red zone trips, an occurrence unlikely to become a recurring theme.
The Saints have maintained a red zone success rate of just 47% this year, suggesting that Grupe is poised for a rebound in Week 14 with ample opportunities as the team looks to continue moving the ball effectively. He also gets the bonus of kicking in the Saints' home-field Superdome environment.
