Nelson Agholor (WR, LV) - Week 10 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 24% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Keep sleeping on Agholor, but do so at your own risk. Sure, the Week 8 performance couldn't have been worse (0.0 PPR points, two targets... in 56 snaps), but every Raider/Brown gets a pass as the weather was just atrocious. Other than that, […]

Curtis Samuel (WR, CAR) - Week 10 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 29% of Leagues ANALYSIS: What the Panthers are doing should be praised way more than it has this season. They're featuring a new quarterback (Teddy Bridgewater) and also brought a new no. 1 wide receiver (Robby Anderson) yet both have played quite nicely this season while developing […]

Wayne Gallman (RB, NYG) - Week 10 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 25% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The only thing that might prevent you from adding Wayne Gallman to your roster and keeping them ROS should be his bye week coming in Week 11. Other than that, the schedule looks good for him to close the fantasy season, as Gallman […]

Jordan Wilkins (RB, IND) - Week 10 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 27% of Leagues ANALYSIS: This is not about who had a better game this past Sunday among Colts' running backs, but rather how Indianapolis is using them and how things could develop further down the road. Last week marked a turning point in the Jordan Wilkins-Jonathan Taylor […]

Derek Carr (QB, LV) - Week 10 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 42% of Leagues ANALYSIS: After all, fantasy GMs seem to be catching up with Derek Carr's exploits. It took time, and perhaps this is not the best moment to throw compliments toward Carr given his last two outings, but he's a must-have player in pretty much every deeper […]

Drew Lock (QB, DEN) - Week 10 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+Team Leagues ROSTERED: 20% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Somehow, for some reason, Drew Lock keeps flying under the radar all around the Yahoo! landscape. Lock is still available in four of each five fantasy leagues out there, which makes no sense at all. While Lock finished his first three games out of […]

Tua Tagovailoa (QB, MIA) - Week 10 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 2QB Leagues ROSTERED: 24% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Tua knows no defeat. Three times has he been on an NFL field, three times he's gone home with the W. Sure, he just threw a couple of passes in garbage time against the Jets, so that shouldn't count, but he won his first […]

Richie James Jr. (WR, SF) - Week 10 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 1% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It is going to be hard--way hard, in fact--to see Richie James Jr. reach the amount of playing time he got against Green Bay last Thursday, let alone watching him play to league-winning levels. The 49ers have been ravaged by injuries this season, […]

Auden Tate (WR, CIN) - Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED: 0% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It has been an exciting season to follow the Joe Burrow-led Bengals offense, and plenty of on-field assets have gotten in on the action as a result. One player that has been largely absent so far has been Auden Tate, who many […]

Eno Benjamin (RB, ARI) - Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 0% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Kenyan Drake is out for Week Nine and possibly longer, meaning that it will be Chase Edmonds heading up the Arizona Cardinals backfield in the meantime. With that shift in mind, the window of opportunity has been cracked for rookie running back Eno […]

Russell Gage (WR, ATL) - Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 13% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It is hard to imagine there being room for another wide receiver to find success in the Falcons lineup when Julio Jones and Calvin Ridley are putting up such monster numbers, but Russell Gage has found space for a nice season in his […]

D'Onta Foreman (RB, TEN) - Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 0% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It seems like a stretch of the imagination that the Derrick Henry-led, stout Titans running game could feed another mouth on the ground after the introduction of Jeremy McNichols, but it looks like D'Onta Foreman stands an excellent shot at becoming a worthy […]

Jalen Reagor (WR, PHI) - Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 24% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The Eagles pass-catcher corps have been so ravaged by injuries that no-name, waiver-wire-darling Travis Fulgham leads the team in PPR points... and is the WR6 on the season in fantasy points per game! Just imagine! With such room for opportunity, as many as […]

Jordan Wilkins (RB, IND) - Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 1% of Leagues ANALYSIS: If you're going to come here to tell me that you knew this was about to happen, you're a liar. That's what you are, my friend. Indianapolis started the season featuring Marlon Mack heavily on both the passing and the rushing game... only […]

Gus Edwards (RB, BAL) - Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 30% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The Ravens backfield has been a three-headed monster, or a three-headed mess, whether you like the most. Mark Ingram II, Gus Edwards, and J.K. Dobbins have shared snaps all season long, and none has been able to separate from the pack either in […]

Corey Davis (WR, TEN) - Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 47% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Looking back at Corey Davis' career numbers, the concerns coming from fantasy GMs were understandable. Not anymore, I guess. Davis was meh as a rookie (6.3 PPG in 11 games), performed better in his second year (11.5 PPG in 16 games) but he came […]

Sterling Shepard (WR, NYG) - Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 43% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It's been ages since the first time I told you to add-and-stash Sterling Shepard to your fantasy teams when he went down injured all the way back in Week 2. It looks like fantasy GMs are finally accepting that they missed out big […]

Damien Harris (RB, NE) - Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 46% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Nobody loves New England's backfield, but at this point, we know perfectly how it usually works (committee) and what to expect (a heavily balanced share of snaps). Excluding Rex Burkhead (71%) in Week 2 and James White (93%) in Week 4, no Patriots' […]

Curtis Samuel (WR, CAR) - Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 20% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Finally, we can all agree Curtis Samuel is a real thing, folks. The Panthers QB-WR pair of Teddy Bridgewater and Robby Anderson (interestingly two additions to the team this season) clicked instantly in Carolina's offense, while Samuel had a rather slow start to the […]

Wayne Gallman (RB, NYG) - Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 23% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The Giants lost stud RB Saquon Barkley just two games into the season, and their move was getting into the free-agent market to sign Devonta Freeman. That was expected, as was his usage and RB1 role while his health stayed up. As Brakley, […]

Denzel Mims (WR, NYJ) - Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED: 9% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Are you looking for extreme fantasy football experiences? Oh boy, then you should definitely roster and play some New York Jets during the rest of the season, am I right? The Jets are whatever comes after "worst". That's a bad thing. But […]

Drew Lock (QB, DEN) - Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 2QB Leagues ROSTERED: 9% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Talk about a comeback. Uh, oh, Drew, Lock! Lock rallied the Denver Broncos from a putrid 24-3 second-half deficit to a resounding 31-30 victory against the Los Angeles Chargers, a team that definitely doesn't know how to catch a break. Lock was forced to […]

Kendrick Bourne (WR, SF) - Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED: 8% of Leagues ANALYSIS: I think it'd take me less time to list San Francisco's available pass-catchers rather than those injured. That's where we're at with the 49ers, folks. Luckily for one out of 10 fantasy GMs, they have one of the still-warm bodies playing football […]

Ross Dwelley (TE, SF) - Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 0% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Short week for the 49ers this one--they play Green Bay on TNF--and short list of available skill-position players for San Fran, too. Problems keep piling for the gold-diggers, as they have now added QB Jimmy Garoppolo and TE George Kittle to their list […]

Jakobi Meyers (WR, NE) - Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 1% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The Patriots are known for deploying a messy backfield, but due to multiple injuries this season their receiving corps has been pretty much on par with it. Edelman was the clear WR1 of the team until he wasn't (Week 3) and got then […]

Darnell Mooney (WR, CHI) - Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 6% of Leagues ANALYSIS: For some reason I will never get to comprehend, Darnell Mooney is still available in more than 9 of 10 Yahoo! fantasy leagues... I know, I know. Allen Robinson II is Chicago's no. 1 WR, he's averaging almost twice as many fantasy points […]

Anthony Miller (WR, CHI) - Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 21% of Leagues ANALYSIS: This Sunday marked the second time this season in which Anthony Miller got targeted 6+ times by the Bears quarterback, and the first in the post-Trubisky era (shout-out Nick Foles!). It took time for Nicky to trust Miller, but finally, he did. The […]

Mecole Hardman (WR, KC) - Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 30% of Leagues ANALYSIS: At this point in time, you know how the Chiefs offense operates: Patrick Mahomes mans the team from the pocket, he demolishes defenses no matter what, and someone from the receiving corps eats. Always. The problem, of course, is knowing who's day is going […]

Trey Burton (TE, IND) - Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 22% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The only reason I'm bumping Trey Burton down to a WW target for those in 14+ Team Leagues is because of the competition he faces in Indy. Other than that, he looks shinier than Arab gold. Just this past Sunday, for example, the […]
