Hunter Henry (TE, SD) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues until Antonio Gates returns OWNED IN: 23% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Henry has looked the part in relief of the injured Antonio Gates, as he followed up his five-catch, 72-yard effort in Week 4 with his first touchdown in Week 5 against the Saints. The score also came with 61 yards […]

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

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 26% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Even in a tough matchup against Denver, Brate saw eight targets in a rainy no-good day for Tampa Bay. He ended up tallying five catches for the second-straight week, as he’s taken quite well to being the Buccaneers’ featured pass-catching tight end. Jameis Winston […]

Dontrelle Inman (WR, SD) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 5% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Inman blowing up was bound to happen sooner or later, though a matchup against the Saints was probably the most likely environment for such a game. Luckily for those who missed the seven-catch, 120-yard boat (that had a TD sprinkled on top), Inman and the Chargers have […]

Jeremy Kerley (WR, SF) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 7% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Kerley has now seen at least six targets in each of San Francisco’s first four games, though two of those games have still yielded yardage totals of under 30 yards. That said, this most recent game saw him notch his first TD as a 49er alongside […]

Robert Woods (WR, BUF) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues until Sammy Watkins returns OWNED IN: 14% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Woods is going to be Buffalo’s primary receiver with Sammy Watkins on the shelf, which showed itself to yield some nice results in Week 4 to tune of seven catches for 89 yards. This is no fluke, as he had […]

Adam Humphries (WR, TB) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 18% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Humphries, and the entire Tampa Bay offense, predictably flopped in Week 4 against a powerful Denver defense. The slot receiver only caught one ball for four yards on four targets, but Week 5 provides a Monday night matchup against a Carolina secondary that just got torched at […]

Eddie Royal (WR, CHI) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 24% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Royal turned a season-high seven targets into a season-high seven receptions for a season-high 111 yards and a TD. Not bad at all. Chicago’s slot man has provided his QBs with reliable hands and steady route-running alongside Alshon Jeffery and Kevin White. Royal has totaled 22 […]

Cole Beasley (WR, DAL) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 36% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: With Dez Bryant inactive, Beasley actually saw a season-low four targets. Of course, he still turned in 66 yards on three catches and even sprinkled in a seven-yard rush for good measure despite the low volume. He has now topped 65 yards in each of Dallas’ […]

Steve Smith (WR, BAL) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 41% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Baltimore players everywhere! Smith caught eight of 11 targets for a second consecutive week, besting last week’s 87 yards with 111 yards that were fueled by a 52-yard TD. This is not a man who is ready to retire. This is not an offense […]

Zach Zenner (RB, DET) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 5% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Zenner didn’t do much of anything in Week 4, rushing three times for 12 yards and adding in a 22-yard catch, and he hadn’t put up any stats in Detroit’s first three games…so what gives here? Well, Dwayne Washington left Week 4’s game with a pretty […]

Wendell Smallwood (RB, PHI) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 21% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: All Smallwood did in Week 3 was rush for 79 yards and a score on 17 carries against the Steelers, which prompted lots of buzz heading into Philly’s bye week. This culminated in an ESPN report from Tim McManus that said Smallwood should see […]

James White (RB, NE) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 26% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Just in case he’s been forgotten about in your league, don’t overlook how much this guy can thrive with Tom Brady back at the helm. Even in Week 4’s watered-down attack, James White caught all five of his targets for 50 yards while collecting 12 rushing yards […]

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

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 30% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Speaking of Kenneth Dixon, that certainly doesn’t mean he isn’t worth the add. West had only collected 119 yards on 33 carries (3.6 YPC) in Baltimore’s first three games, and while his strong Week 4 should secure him some leash, Baltimore drafted Dixon for a reason. […]

Terrance West (RB, BAL) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 44% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: West looked good against a Raiders defense that has been put to shame through their first four weeks, as he carried the load with 21 rushes for 113 yards and a TD. Justin Forsett (the highest-owned of the RB stable at 55%) was scratched […]

Sam Bradford (QB, MIN) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 29% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Bradford’s Week 3 wasn’t anything special, as he crawled through the first half against Carolina before going 14-for-17 in the second half. The Vikings are now 3-0, and while much of that is due to their defense, this is still a passing attack that popped off in […]

Dak Prescott (QB, DAL) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 48% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Prescott didn’t even need to use his legs in Week 4, completing 23-of-32 passes for 245 yards and two TDs despite top receiver Dez Bryant being out. He still rushes five times for three yards, but he didn’t take chances and delivered strong strikes […]

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

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 49% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Coming off of a week of rest and preparation, Wentz and the Eagles will get roll into Detroit to face a Lions team that just fell on its face against divisional rival Chicago. Brian Hoyer just totaled 302 passing yards and two TDs against Detroit, so […]

Pittsburgh Steelers (DEF, PIT) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 40% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Not feeling the whole Buffalo Bill thing? How about a Steeler team that is riding high off of a Sunday-night shellacking of the Chiefs on primetime television? After recording only one sack over their first three games, the Steelers (namely, Cameron Heyward) turned in four sacks […]

Buffalo Bills (DET, BUF) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 42% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: The Bills just provided New England with its first shutout since 2006, and its first shutout at home since 1993. Injury-hampered offense be damned, that’s impressive. Even if one doesn’t want to put much stock in that, this is a Bills team that […]

Dwayne Washington (RB, DET) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues if he appears healthy OWNED IN: 33% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: After a great deal of buzz about Dwayne Washington's increased role and confidence from the coaching staff, he burned owners who took a chance on him. He managed just six yards on two carries before leaving with an ankle injury. He had a […]

Chris Thompson (RB, WAS) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 36% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Matt Jones had his best game of the year, but Chris Thompson also made his presence felt with a receiving touchdown early in the game. Thompson carried the ball just three times for 24 yards and caught two balls for 16 yards. Thompson now has […]
