James Washington (WR, PIT) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 26% of leagues ANALYSIS: Heading into the 2019 season, James Washington was a guy I was looking to target late in fantasy drafts. Before he was drafted by the Steelers and was fairly buried on the depth chart, he was one of the higher profiled […]

Kenny Stills (WR, HOU) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 18% of leagues ANALYSIS: Heading into the 2019 season, many fantasy owners were buying into Will Fuller as the WR2 to own in Houston. After the Dolphins traded Kenny Stills to the Texans, there is a chance that he could end up sliding into that […]

Chris Herndon (TE, NYJ) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 12% of leagues ANALYSIS: Whether you need a tight end on your fantasy team or not, Chris Herndon IV is a waiver wire target that you can pick up now and benefit from in just a few weeks. After starting the season with a suspension, […]

T.J. Yeldon (RB, BUF) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 3% of leagues ANALYSIS: Heading into the 2019 season, the Buffalo Bills running backs were looking a bit confusing and was very much a running back by committee. With LeSean McCoy getting traded to the Chiefs, the Bills were left with Frank Gore, T.J. Yeldon, […]

Brian Hill (RB, ATL) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 0% of leagues ANALYSIS: Heading into the 2019 season, many fantasy owners were looking at a bounce-back season from the Atlanta Falcons star running back. Unfortunately, Devonta Freeman has without a doubt been one of the most disappointing names in fantasy football in 2019. We've […]

Kyle Allen (QB, CAR) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 2% of leagues ANALYSIS: With all of the recent news and buzz surrounding the Panthers star quarterback Cam Newton, there has been some cause for concern that is hard to ignore. After heading into the season with questions regarding his health, we've seen Newton sidelined […]

Mason Rudolph (QB, PIT) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 2QB Leagues OWNED IN: 13% of leagues ANALYSIS: Heading into the 2019 season, Ben Roethlisberger was viewed as a solid late-round quarterback option who would likely put up solid fantasy numbers yet again. Unfortunately for the Steelers, that will not be the case as Roethlisberger will spend the year on Injured […]

Jordan Akins (TE, HOU) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 4% of leagues ANALYSIS: When the Houston Texans tight ends scored three TDs in Sunday’s game against the Chargers, it was certainly a departure from the norm at that position. Normally, the Texans TEs are utilized as blockers, but this time they surprised the Chargers […]

Wayne Gallman (RB, NYG) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 2% of leagues ANALYSIS: It's rare that a player in Wayne Gallman's position ends up being so lightly owned. We usually think of most RB2s as rosterable players in most formats, but the Giants are a special situation, as Saquon Barkley's presence as the team's bell cow back […]

Daniel Jones (QB, NYG) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 14% of leagues ANALYSIS: Well... While it's too early for the Daniel Jones naysayers to eat crow -- which is good since I was one of them -- his performance in Week 3 was good. Like, historically good. Rookies making their first NFL start don't put […]

Darrel Williams (RB, KC) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 5% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Go get Darrel Williams before he's gone and then come back to read this! There is mostly one thing you should always consider when playing fantasy football and assessing your roster: targets/touches/opportunities matter the most. In 2018, we started devising a new […]

Rex Burkhead (RB, NE) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 24% of leagues ANALYSIS: Rex Burkhead was a highly sought after sleeper candidate heading into 2018 fantasy football drafts, but has been largely forgotten about in 2019 thanks to missing a significant portion of last season due to a neck injury. He has started to […]

Jeffery Wilson (RB, SF) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 0% of Leagues ANALYSIS: There certainly appears to be a clear red zone favorite in the San Franciso backfield. Second-year running back Jeffery Wilson has only been active the past two weeks, but has scored two touchdowns in each of his games, making it four total […]

Ronald Jones II (RB, TB) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 24% of leagues ANALYSIS: If Ronald Jones II was on any team other than the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, I might be arguing that he should be owned in all formats. The team's decision to keep giving chances to the inefficient Peyton Barber has stifled some of […]

Phillip Dorsett (WR, NE) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 32% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It is hard to remember a shakier season around the Patriots receiving corps on and off the field, though everything seems to be finally falling into place. New England entered the season with the same wide receivers that they fielded last year […]

Will Dissly (TE, SEA) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 44% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Once again, Week 3 showed what the tight end landscape looks like. These are your top PPR scorers of the week: Darren Waller, Greg Olsen, Austin Hooper, Evan Engram, Jordan Akins, Will Dissly, Dawson Knox, Darren Fells. Of those, I'm betting my […]

Golden Tate (WR, NYG) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 37% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The time has come. Yes, Golden Tate won't be back until Week 5, but now is the perfect moment to get him before it's too late. The 10-year veteran enters his 11th season as one of best receivers the Giants will […]

Jacoby Brissett (QB, IND) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 2QB Leagues OWNED IN: 19% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Remember when Andrew Luck retired and it looked like doomsday for Indianapolis fans and fantasy GMs who had already drafted him? Drop those fears and trust Brissett! Listen, Jacoby Brissett might not be a league winner, but out of the quarterbacks that mostly […]

Gardner Minshew (QB, JAX) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 2QB Leagues OWNED IN: 8% of Leagues ANALYSIS: I hope you don't bring prejudices with you and you can bear with me on this one. Gardner Minshew looks like a legit NFL quarterback. I'm saying that about a guy who plays at the most important position for a mediocre team in […]

Dawson Knox (TE, BUF) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 0% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Buffalo Bills tight end Dawson Knox played a big role in the team's home opener win over the Bengals this past week. Knox had two huge plays in the game. He scored the team's first touchdown of the game on a one-yard […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 0% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Seattle Seahawks running back CJ Prosise was on the field for 46 offensive snaps in Week 3, nine more than starting running back Chris Carson. With Carson's fumbling problems (three lost fumbles the past three weeks) and Rashaad Penny's hamstring injury, […]

Tony Pollard (RB, DAL) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 17% of leagues ANALYSIS: In a surprising development, the 2019 Dallas Cowboys appear to be an offensive juggernaut. On Sunday, two Cowboys running backs each had 100-yard rushing days for the first time since the Emmitt Smith era, as both Ezekiel Elliott and rookie Tony Pollard […]

Diontae Johnson (WR, PIT) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ team leagues OWNED IN: 4% of leagues ANALYSIS: Rookie Diontae Johnson started his first career game in Week 3 and in turn hauled in his first career touchdown.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ team PPR leagues OWNED IN: 8% of leagues ANALYSIS: Cole Beasley was targeted a season-high 10 times in Sunday's win over the Bengals, catching eight of them for 48 yards.

Preston Williams (WR, MIA) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 3% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Miami Dolphins wide receiver Preston Williams has been heavily featured in the team's offense the past two weeks.

James O'Shaughnessy (TE, JAX) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 1% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It is hard to find No. 1-depth chart position players available on such a rate like James O'Shaughnessy's (less than 1% ownership!). There were some concerns about who'd be targeted in Jacksonville's offense regarding the tight end position to start the season. O'Shaughnessy […]

Alexander Mattison (RB, MIN) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 20% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It took a long summer, but we're finally enjoying Alexander Mattison performing on a Pro backfield at the NFL level. At least to the extent Dalvin Cook's monster production allows him to. As a newcomer, the rookie already has been handed the […]

Chris Conley (WR, JAX) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 20% of Leagues ANALYSIS: After an average season in Kansas City last year, considering his playing time and opportunities, Chris Conley signed with Jacksonville this summer. In his two best seasons in 2016 and 2018, he finished averaging 6.0 PPR points per game, but he never was […]
