Kenneth Dixon (RB, BAL) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 23% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Kenneth Dixon didn’t look great, but boy howdy did Terrance West look bad. Even against the Cleveland Browns, West could only muster a 3.1 YPC against them while Dixon managed to rustle up 80 yards on 11 touches. This writer doubts that Dixon ever […]

Alfred Morris (RB, DAL) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-Team Leagues as a handcuff for Ezekiel Elliott OWNED IN: 34% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Another week, another buzzy report that Ezekiel Elliott is basically in the crosshairs of the NFL. Alfred Morris is unplayable for as long as Elliott is active, but if this whole domestic violence case ever amounts to any […]

Kapri Bibbs (RB, DEN) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14- and 16-Team Leagues as a handcuff for Devontae Booker OWNED IN: 19% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Devontae Booker out-touched Kapri Bibbs 26-to-7, and that was in a glorious matchup against the Saints in the dome. Don’t expect anything more out of Bibbs other than his being a handcuff at this point. Denver’s offense just […]

Damien Williams (RB, MIA) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 16- and 18-Team Leagues as a handcuff for Jay Ajayi OWNED IN: 9% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Damien Williams is Jay Ajayi’s handcuff and he hilariously scored two touchdowns on only three touches in Week 10. That sort of hyper-efficiency cannot be relied on in any way of course, but the alarm bells went off briefly […]

Ka'Deem Carey (RB, CHI) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 16- and 18-Team Leagues as a handcuff for Jordan Howard OWNED IN: 7% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Ka'Deem Carey’s momentum from Weeks 6 and 7 has been absolutely demolished lately, but if Jordan Howard misses time then Carey will likely see an uptick in snaps and get some decent work alongside Jeremy Langford. It wouldn’t […]

Fitzgerald Toussaint (RB, PIT) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues as a handcuff for LeVeon Bell OWNED IN: 2% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: With DeAngelo Williams healing from his knee surgery, Fitzgerald Toussaint is now the next man up for Pittsburgh should something happen to LeVeon Bell. While we’re not touting Toussaint as a big talent, the opportunity in Pittsburgh’s high-octane offense is worth […]

Kenneth Farrow (RB, SD) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues as a handcuff for Melvin Gordon OWNED IN: 2% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Another handcuff reminder, as Kenneth Farrow is the only man left standing behind Melvin Gordon now that Dexter McCluster is done. Farrow is a UDFA out of Houston who won the MVP Award at the 2015 Lockheed Martin Armed Forces Bowl, […]

Carson Wentz (QB, PHI) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 38% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: In Week 9, Carson Wentz delivered from a yards perspective (364, despite two interceptions) at the Meadowlands against the Giants. Next week, Wentz gets his easiest matchup yet, against the Falcons at home. Atlanta is surrendering a league-worst 289.6 passing yards per […]

Joe Flacco (QB, BAL) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 25% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Joe Flacco had a nice, post-bye effort against Pittsburgh in Week 9, throwing for 241 yards and a score. Perhaps most importantly, his shoulder didn’t seem to be giving him any issues. In Week 10, Flacco should hit it big against the […]

Alex Smith (QB, KC) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 24% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Alex Smith may have missed Week 9 with a concussion, but as of now it looks as though he’ll be ready to go for Week 10. Nick Foles filled in admirably against Jacksonville, but his very Alex Smith-ian 20-for-33 for 187 yards […]

Cameron Brate (TE, TB) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10-team leagues OWNED IN: 37% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Cameron Brate’s six targets in Week 9 matched his combined total from their previous two games, and he caught five of them for 43 yards and a late, garbage-time TD. Points are points though, and Brate would be yet another beneficiary should Mike Evans be limited or out […]

C.J. Fiedorowicz (TE, HOU) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-team league OWNED IN: 22% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: C.J. Fiedorowicz was on a bye and so his ownership dipped a bit, but owners should scoop up the talented Texan as he’s seen at least seven targets in each of his last four games. While Houston’s Week 10 matchup against the Jaguars isn’t particularly […]

Zach Ertz (TE, PHI) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-team leagues OWNED IN: 18% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: I told you last column that Zach Ertz should be picked up, and while some of you probably listened, many probably did not judging by how many leagues he is owned in across the major fantasy websites.  So now is your chance to right your wrong, […]

Richard Rodgers (TE, GB) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-team leagues OWNED IN: 18% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Green Bay’s second-best Richard Rodgers has not been a fantasy factor all season, but thanks to Green Bay’s myriad of injuries to running backs and receivers he caught six passes for 64 yards and was targeted 10 times in his last contest.  Rodgers could post […]

Austin Hooper (TE, ATL) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-team leagues OWNED IN: 18% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Austin Hooper filled in for veteran Jacob Tamme last Thursday as well as Jay Leno used to fill in for Johnny Carson on The Tonight Show.  Hooper had 46 yards and a touchdown reception and will be a solid play this week against Philadelphia’s slumping secondary […]

Austin Hooper (TE, ATL) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-team leagues OWNED IN: 18% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Austin Hooper finally failed to haul in a target in his first start of his NFL career, but still caught three of his six looks for 46 yards and a touchdown against the Bucs. Jacob Tamme normally sits above him on the depth chart, but a […]

Lance Kendricks (TE, LA) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 10-team leagues OWNED IN: 15% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Many fantasy owners will see the season-high 12 targets and 90 yards Lance Kendricks racked up when they check the Rams boxscore from this past Sunday and think that he was awesome, but if they did not watch the game they will not realize he could have […]

Lance Kendricks (TE, LA) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 10-team leagues OWNED IN: 15% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Lance Kendricks saw a whopping 12 targets in Los Angeles’ Week 9 loss against the Panthers, as the tight end hauled in seven catches for the second straight week. His 90 yards were nice, and a season-high mark, but the day could’ve been so much better had […]
