Amari Cooper - Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 12

BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team PPR Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3/4 ANALYSIS: Cleveland Browns wide receiver Amari Cooper rates as a borderline WR3/4 play for Week 12's game against the Denver Broncos.

BALLER MOVE: Sit in 10+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: QB2 ANALYSIS: Believe it or not, the Denver Broncos enter Week 12 as one of the hottest teams in the league.

Joe Mixon – Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 12

BALLER MOVE: Start in 10+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: RB2 ANALYSIS: Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon has been a consistent yearly RB2 for fantasy players over the past several seasons.

David Njoku - Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 12

BALLER MOVE: Start in 10+ team leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: TE1 ANALYSIS: Rookie quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson is enamored with David Njoku.

Drake London - Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 12

BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3 ANALYSIS: London's fantasy managers were probably optimistic when Taylor Heinicke was inserted into the Falcons lineup in Week 8.

Chuba Hubbard – Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 12

BALLER MOVE: Sit In Leagues with 12 or Fewer Teams POSITIONAL VALUE: RB4 ANALYSIS: Things are a mess in Carolina and that's especially true in the backfield.

Rachaad White – Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 12

BALLER MOVE: Start in 10+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: RB2 ANALYSIS: White has been deployed as one of the NFL's few legitimate workhorses at the RB position this season. His usage numbers are elite. He's one of just four backs (Etienne, CMC, & Jacobs) that's logged a snap count of over 500. He's toted the […]

Trevor Lawrence – Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 12

BALLER MOVE: Start in 10+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: QB1 ANALYSIS: After a breakout 2022 campaign, Lawrence's fantasy output has been disappointing this season.

BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3 ANALYSIS: The New England Patriots offense has produced few bright spots in 2023, but Demario Douglas has performed admirably in a tough situation.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 16% of Leagues ANALYSIS: While Minshew isn't going to light up the fantasy scoreboard like prior QB Anthony Richardson would, he's been serviceable for fantasy, especially in Superflex leagues.

Trey McBride - Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 12

BALLER MOVE: Start in All Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: TE1 ANALYSIS: The second-year pro continues to spread his wings with veteran tight end Zach Ertz on Injured Reserve.

BALLER MOVE: Sit in 12+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: RB4/5 ANALYSIS: D'Onta Foreman was the Chicago Bears' primary running back during the five games Khalil Herbert missed due to injury.
