Brandon Bolden a Sneaky RB Play

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 2% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: This has been one of the most injury-plagued and confusing seasons I've ever seen for fantasy running backs. The Patriots are always dangerous when it comes to speculating which running back is going to do well for them. However, with LeGarrette […]

Bryce Brown is a Must Add for the Fantasy Playoffs

BALLER MOVE: Add in All leagues OWNED IN: 3% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Brown was already a hot waiver commodity this week when Thomas Rawls was lost for the season with a broken ankle. But he became my #1 pickup for the last few weeks of the season when the Seahawks released RB DuJuan Harris Tuesday […]

Tyler Kroft Next Man Up in Cinci

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues OWNED IN: 1% Owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Can you believe Pittsburgh’s Mike Mitchell concussed another player?  Can you believe Cincinnati has two tight ends named Tyler on their roster?  And can you believe that Tyler Kroft could actually help someone win their fantasy league? Kroft should be the next […]

Zach Miller From the Streets of Chicago

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 15% Owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: There were obviously several fantasy owners who ignored my advice to pick Miller up a couple weeks ago because Martellus Bennett was still active, on the field and catching Jay Cutler’s passes.  But now that Bennett has been banished to injured reserve, […]

Add Austin Sefarian-Jenkins for Strong Finish

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 55% Owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Hey, hey! Seferian-Jenkins stayed healthy for two games in a row! So this means he should be safe to steal off the waiver wire if he is still available in your league. It is amazing how well rookie quarterback Jameis Winston has […]

James White's Role Growing for Pats

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 36% Owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: There's still a difficult split happening between James White and Brandon Bolden, and despite Bolden out-touching White 14 to 1 on the ground, it's White that's showing more significant fantasy value. Maybe that's because he actually gets used in the redzone over […]

Add Denard Robinson for Your Fantasy Playoffs

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 26% Owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: T.J. Yeldon left week 14 with a left knee sprain and in his place came Denard Robinson. The timetable for Yeldon's return has not been set yet (as of Monday morning) but with so few games remaining, if you get just one game […]

Tim Hightower a High Pickup Priority

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 18% owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Had the Mark Ingram news been made sooner, Hightower would've been on last weeks list. Hightower isn't much of a skilled player as he plodded is way to 85 yards on 28 carries but with that kind of volume, who really cares? The […]

Wide Receivers Waiver Wire for Week 15: Willie Snead, Jermaine Kearse, Malcom Floyd

It's not normally in our nature here at RotoBaller to toot our own horn, but after watching Sunday's games unfold, well ... beep, beep.

[…]

Week 15 QB Waiver Wire Streamers: Alex Smith, Ryan Fitzpatrick & A.J. McCarron

I hope you made it through your first playoff matchup or advanced into the playoffs in Week 14! Unfortunately the QB streams were pretty disappointing. Tyrod Taylor delivered a decent game that meets our standards but it was still underwhelming given the matchup. In a huge surprise, Jameis Winston totally flopped on what should have […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 39% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Ryan Fitzpatrick has been steady and consistent for the entire year when it comes to scoring touchdowns.

Jay Cutler Finally Has a Healthy Arsenal of Weapons

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 54% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: After a hot start to his season, Jay Cutler has been off the rails the last three weeks. Despite some easy matchups, he's struggled with the short absences of Alshon Jeffery and Martellus Bennett, and even with them, he failed to […]

DeVante Parker Holds Immediate Value as a Deep Threat

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 22% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Coming off two straight weeks with a touchdown, DeVante Parker is showing his ability to make deep plays as his train finally gets on the tracks.

Kamar Aiken Seeing an Increase in Targets

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 43% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Matt Schaub was expected to plummet Kamar Aiken's value, but instead he has force-fed him across two games. Aiken has seen back-to-back games with double-digit targets and has caught 12 balls for 128 yards and a touchdown in the process. It's […]

Clive Walford Jiving with Derek Carr

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues OWNED IN: 7% Owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Walford has slowly blipped on fantasy radars for a while now after scoring three touchdown sover a four-game span last month, but he hadn’t caught more than a pair of passes in any game until this past week.  Against the Kansas City […]

Seattle Keeps Looking Doug Baldwin's Way And So Should You

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 57% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: So Doug Baldwin might actually be real now. He's always been a reliable target, but never seemed to be the dynamic, offense-carrying type. He's been forced into that role this year and hasn't yet faded out. On Sunday he caught five-of-seven targets for 94 […]

Will Tye for Those in Do or Die Mode

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues OWNED IN: 2% Owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Larry Donnell’s neck injury has made the fantasy value of Tye very healthy.  While Donnell sits on the sidelines, Tye has made the most of his opportunity as New York’s starting tight end during the last month. Tye has not found the […]

Luke Willson Doing Some Good Will for Fantasy Teams

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues OWNED IN: 4% Owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Willson is no Jimmy Graham.  Hell, he’s not even the best Willson/Wilson on his own offense.  But what he is right now is the starting tight end on a team whose quarterback and offense are clicking on all cylinders at the perfect […]

Richard Rodgers Answering Prayers at TE?

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues OWNED IN: 47% Owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Does the hail mary force Rodgers (the QB) to feed Rodgers (the TE)? We really don't know. Rodgers has been unreliable all year and very touchdown dependent, putting up less than 50 yards in all weeks prior to this one. Still, this is […]

Super-Sub Scott Chandler to the Rescue

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 45% Owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Scott Chandler saw seven targets in Gronk's absence, and was able to make good on them with four catches for 61 yards and a touchdown against a defense that had only allowed two touchdowns to the position all year.

Bilal Powell Powers His Way to PPR Relevance

BALLER MOVE: Add in PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 22% owned ANALYSIS: Powell's another player that's just not that talented and getting the most out of poor defensive play. His game against the Giants saw him run into wide open spaces as a receiver, and he's been utilized there often by the Jets but not often […]

Week 14 Waiver Wire - Shaun Draughn, DeVante Parker, Doug Baldwin & More

Waiver Wire Adds for Week Fourteen The thirteenth Sunday of the season is through with the Steelers completely routing the Colts defense for the second year in a row, this time without the need of a competitive game.

Dorial Green-Beckham Could Build off His Breakout Game

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12 and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 35% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Dorial Green-Beckham finally broke out in a big way this past weekend, piling up 119 yards and a touchdown on five catches against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14 and 16-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 4% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Keshawn Martin was targeted eight times in Sunday's upset loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, but he only caught three passes for a mere 45 yards. He also dropped a pair of passes late in the game. So what's the upside here? Well, he's still a […]

Chris Givens (WR, BAL) Could Thrive in Garbage Time

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14 and 16 Team Leagues OWNED IN: 5% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: As the number three option on a struggling offense led by a backup quarterback, it's tough to recommend Chris Givens for anything but the deepest of leagues. However, he was targeted eight times Sunday, trailing only running back Javorius "Buck" Allen (13) and […]
