Stefon Diggs - Week 1 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Start in 10-Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR2 ANALYSIS: It's probably going to take a little bit to establish the pecking order in the Houston Texans's pass-catching game after the addition of Stefon Diggs this offseason. Diggs joins a team that already had Nico Collins and Tank Dell on it. Still, despite the logjam […]

Davante Adams - Week 1 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Start In All Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR1 ANALYSIS: Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Davante Adams is a talented, veteran player coming off a year that failed to meet his standards.

Christian Kirk - Week 1 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Start in 12-Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3 ANALYSIS: The Jacksonville Jaguars have reshaped their wide receiver corps heading into the 2024 season, but Christian Kirk should remain the team's No. 1 option, even with the addition of Gabe Davis and Brian Thomas Jr. Last season, Kirk missed five games, but still managed a […]

Trey McBride - Week 1 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Start in All Formats POSITIONAL VALUE: TE1 ANALYSIS: McBride enters the 2024 season as a contender for the overall TE1 in fantasy football and we should get a pretty good idea of how the targets will be allocated between him and Arizona's number one draft choice, Marvin Harrison Jr. rather quickly.

BALLER MOVE: Start in 14+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: RB3 ANALYSIS: Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears is coming off a solid rookie campaign, totaling 838 yards from scrimmage on 152 touches.

Kenneth Walker III - Week 1 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks (2024)

BALLER MOVE: Start in all leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: RB2 ANALYSIS: Kenneth Walker III is currently healthy. And when he's active, he takes on lots of opportunities.

BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: RB2/Flex ANALYSIS: Washington Commanders running back Austin Ekeler will be in a split committee with Brian Robinson Jr. entering the 2024 season, which makes him a low-end RB2/flex play in the season opener against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Jerome Ford - Week 1 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: RB2 ANALYSIS: With Cleveland Browns running back Nick Chubb (knee) starting the season on the physically unable to perform (PUP) list, Jerome Ford should be in line for an expanded role in Week 1 against the Dallas Cowboys.

BALLER MOVE: Start in 10+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: RB2 ANALYSIS: In 2023, Rachaad White turned out to be a steal for those who rolled the dice on him.

Chris Godwin - Week 1 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks (2024)

BALLER MOVE: Start in 10+ team leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR2/3 ANALYSIS: Back in the slot and matched against a terrible secondary, Chris Godwin is worthy of at least a flex start in Week 1.

James Conner - Week 1 Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Fantasy Football Picks

BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: Low-end RB2 ANALYSIS: At first glance, this is a tough matchup. Arizona’s offensive line is a weakness and Buffalo’s defense has been stout.

BALLER MOVE: Start in 12-Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: RB3 ANALYSIS: Tennessee Titans running back Tony Pollard enters 2024 in an unsettled spot.

BALLER MOVE: Start in 14-Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: RB3 ANALYSIS: Los Angeles Chargers running back Gus Edwards is a solid RB3 option heading into Week 1 of the 2024 NFL season, but his value is highly dependent on how much usage he gets near the goal line.
