Joe Flacco Still Underowned, Strong Week 6 Matchup Awaits
FAAB Bid: $3 - 4, 58% owned in Fleaflicker Perhaps people dropped him for a hotter option since Steve Smith Sr. went down with an injury, and it is noteworthy that most of Flacco's value against the Browns came from his legs (two rushing touchdowns). That said, he gets to face the San Francisco secondary that […]

Jay Cutler Should Not Be On Any Week 6 Waiver Wires
FAAB Bid: $3 - 4, 40% owned in Fleaflicker Look, he gets a bum rap, but he pulled out a victory for the Bears against the Chiefs - even though he was missing his top two wide receivers and was working with the backup center. As of Monday midday, he is the QB12 scoring-wise on Fleaflicker, meaning […]

Allen Hurns Is A Priority Waiver Wire Add
FAAB Bid: $6 - 8, 54% owned in Fleaflicker I said last week not to think of Hurns as the lead dog in Jacksonville, and Allen Robinson did come back to show that he is the number one for the Jaguars this week. That said Hurns was again great, posting another 116 yard and one touchdown […]

Willie Snead (WR, NO) - Priority Waiver Wire Adds & FAAB Bids
22% Owned in Fleaflicker Honestly, Willie Snead should have been included in last week's segment. Snead continued his emergence as a top option in the Saints' passing attack, racking up six catches on 11 targets for 141 yards. His 11 targets led the team in Week 5. There's reasonable debate as to who is the top receiver […]

DeVante Parker (WR, MIA) - Deeper Waiver Wire Adds & FAAB Bids
21% Owned in Fleaflicker Here's a name you've had shoved down your throats by fantasy pundits (myself included) only to see marginals returns to this point. He only has four catches on eight targets for 49 yards, so it's understandable why most owners have jumped ship. But it's time to consider giving the rookie a […]

Benjamin Watson (TE, NO) - Deeper Waiver Wire Adds & FAAB Bids
8% Owned in Fleaflicker We're officially running on fumes for sleeper tight ends. The Saints offense continues to be a work in progress, with roles still being solidified from wide receiver (hello, Willie Snead) to tight end. A lot of preseason hype was given to Josh Hill to take over for Jimmy Graham, but that […]

Ryan Fitzpatrick (QB, NYJ) - Waiver Wire Adds & FAAB Bids
25% Owned in Fleaflicker Back to the Harvard well! We focused on Fitzy in our Week Four edition and he returned modest results (16.72 in standard scoring). He gets the call here... well mainly because the options are so slim. Seriously, here your other options that are owner in under 25% of leagues: Kirk Cousins (at NYJ), […]

Can Charles Sims Get You Wins Off The Waiver Wire?
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 50% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: It's really unfortunate that Doug Martin had such a great Sunday because Charles Sims continues to show flashes of being a very effective running back. Martin scored all the touchdowns on Sunday, but Sims was no slouch, carrying the ball […]

Charcandrick West's Value Going North Fast
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 4% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: I'll admit, I feel strange typing this name. Back in week 1, myself along with every analyst in the world would have told you that without a doubt, Knile Davis was the Jamaal Charles handcuff. However, in the past few weeks, people […]

Is Zach "Doc" Zenner the Remedy for Detroit's Rushing Woes?
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 4% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Zenner, or 'Doc' as his teammates call him referring to his eventual desire to go to Medical School, is starting to get some opportunities in the Detroit backfield. His opportunity started with an injury to Joique Bell, and has continued with […]

Javorius Allen A Glorious Week 6 Waiver Option?
BALLER MOVE: Add as Handcuff / Injury Fill-in OWNED IN: 8% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Javorius Allen showed off the talent that we all heard about during the preseason on Sunday, taking the ball eight times for 58 yards. Let's not kid ourselves, this job is still firmly Justin Forsett's. However, Forsett went down with […]

Antonio Gates (SD, TE) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in ALL Leagues OWNED IN: 53% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Wow, Antonio Gates didn't skip a beat. After missing the first four games of the season due to a PED suspension, the 35 year-old kicked off his 2015 campaign in style. The veteran recorded 92 receiving yards and two touchdowns. It's pretty clear […]

Theo Riddick (DET, RB) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 5% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The Detroit Lions' running game is a mess right now. It's bad news for them and their fans, but good news for those of you who have Theo Riddick available in your fantasy leagues. Joique Bell's injury opened up the door for Ameer […]

Ty Montgomery (GB, WR) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Short Term Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 10% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Davante Adams is struggling with an ankle injury, which has given Ty Montgomery a chance to get some more looks from Aaron Rodgers. On Sunday against the Rams, we saw Montgomery reap the benefits of these added targets with a […]

Minnesota Vikings - Defense Streamer For Week 6
The honest truth is that no D/ST matchup looks particularly appetizing on the waivers. Of what remains, the Vikings show the best chance to overwhelm their opponent. With Jamaal Charles out for the Chiefs, the biggest threat in the game is gone. It's likely that the Vikings choose to spend a lot of time trying […]

Jacob Tamme (TE, ATL) - Tight End Add For Week 6
When Leonard Hankerson got injured, it was Jacob Tamme who picked up the slack on his way to eight receptions and 94 yards. If Hankerson's injury continues to bother him, or maybe the offense realizes that Tamme might be worth throwing to, there's a lot of value to be had. Kyle Shanahan has worked with […]

Antonio Andrews (RB, TEN) - Waiver Wire Add For Week 6
Although Andrews didn't see the bulk of the carries this week, he's definitely seeing the most valuable action. He's now had rushing touchdowns in back-to-back games with the Titans, in addition to a couple of receptions. Outside of the touchdowns, the production hasn't been very strong - but at this point, with a lack of […]

Jamison Crowder (WR, WAS) - Priority PPR League Add For Week 6
Crowder's value is going to be heavily tied to how long DeSean Jackson remains out for, but even if he does return this week there's a chance that Crowder's role may remain steady. After all, the Redskins definitely drafted him with the intent of using him. Over the past three weeks, Crowder has been on the field […]

Gary Barnidge (TE, CLE) - Priority Add For Week 6
Another player I mentioned last week, Gary Barnidge just doesn't make sense. At 30 years old he is having his breakout season, becoming the second tight end to breakout for the Browns in the last three years. It's just like Justin Forsett last year - a player with no business being good, actually being good. Barnidge […]

Willie Snead (WR, NO) - Priority Add For Week 6
I've mentioned before that I love being able to write about a player two weeks in a row. Snead has proven to be one of Brees' favorite players to look for, as he racked up six receptions on 11 targets for 141 yards in Week 5. That was after putting up 89 yards on six receptions […]

Charcandrick West (RB, KC) - Priority Add For Week 6
The must own pickup of Week 6, Charcandrick West, is the next man up for a Chiefs. This is an offense that relies so heavily on it's running back, that Shonn Greene would be a potential number one overall waiver wire pick if he was here. West took the number two spot from Knile Davis just two […]

Waiver Wire Express - Week Six Lightning Round
Later today, and over the next couple of days, we will be publishing more in depth waiver wire analysis for all positions. But in efforts of bringing you timely information, as fast as possible, consider this the Week 6 waiver wire lightning round. Waiver pickups are in order of priority, broken out by each position, […]

Keep an Eye on Keshawn Martin in Deep Leagues
New England Patriots wide receiver Keshawn Martin is worth keeping an eye on in deep fantasy football leagues. The 25-year-old former fourth round draft pick was on the team's active roster in Week 5 against the Dallas Cowboys. Meanwhile, former second round draft pick Aaron Dobson was a healthy scratch. Martin caught two balls for […]

Willie Snead the Receiver to Own in New Orleans?
With the departures of two of Drew Brees' biggest targets last year (Jimmy Graham and Kenny Stills), many wondered who in the New Orleans receiving corps would be the man to step up. Five games into the season, it seems as if that man is Willie Snead. Snead followed up a solid Week 4 performance […]

Look to Shane Vereen for Hidden Fantasy Value In Week 6
Currently, the New York Giants have an interesting situation at the running back position. With no real outlying back through five games this season, the Giants have opted to rotate Andre Williams, Rashad Jennings and Shane Vereen. Though both Williams and Jennings have little to no value for fantasy owners, with Odell Beckham Jr. and […]

Charcandrick West or Knile Davis? Fantasy Football Owners Have a Tough Decision
When Jamaal Charles went down with an apparent season-ending knee injury fantasy football owners immediately started to plan their Week 6 waiver adds. Knile Davis may have seemed like the obvious choice to replace Charles as the Kansas City Chiefs starting running back, but then we were thrown a curve ball. Chiefs coach Andy Reid […]

What Jamaal Charles' Injury Means to his Fantasy Owners
During Sunday's loss to the Chicago Bears, Kansas City Chiefs RB Jamaal Charles was knocked out of the game with an apparent knee injury. The injury was non-contact and did not look promising as Charles had to be helped off of the field. Early reports are indicating that Charles has a torn ACL, which would […]

Thomas Rawls Has Big Game Against Bengals
Seattle Seahawks backup running back Thomas Rawls rushed 23 times for 169 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's overtime loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. Rawls topped the 100-yard mark for the second time this season, filling in for the injured Marshawn Lynch. Rawls looked solid in his second career start, providing the Seahawks with a much-needed […]

Gary Barnidge Explodes Again, Has Emerged As Legit TE1
For the 3rd week in a row, Gary Barnidge has posted solid fantasy football stat lines. During that time, Gary Barnidge has had 26 targets, 20 catches, three touchdowns, and receiving 319 yards. It is very clear that while Josh McCown is the starting quarterback for the Cleveland Browns, Barnidge will continue to get targets. Coming […]

Is Maxx Williams A Deeper Week 5 Lineup Sleeper?
This may have been a player that a lot of people took the chance in Week 4 after seeing the production fellow TE Crockett Gilmore was able to produce before he got hurt. Unfortunately, Williams was a dud (two catches, 17 yards). Williams was the first tight end off the board in the 2015 NFL Draft for […]
