Khalil Herbert (RB, CHI) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 2

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 41% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Whether this game was a fluke or not, you'd be smart adding Khalil Herbert to your roster before other fantasy GMs catch up and you miss on the opportunity. The consensus opinion is and has always been that of David Montgomery being […]

Devin Duvernay (WR, BAL) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 2

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 31% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It is still early (very early, probably) to come up with a definitive conclusion about who's who in the Ravens offense. Devin Duvernay, if only for the lack of other viable options, seems to have found a role as the WR2 of […]

Zay Jones (WR, JAC) - Fantasy Football Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED IN: 12% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Zay Jones is an intriguing waiver wire target in deep leagues heading into Week 2. Christian Kirk was the team's leading receiver just as everyone expected, but it was Zay Jones who emerged as the team's No. 2 […]

Carson Wentz (QB, WAS) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 2

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 12% of Leagues ANALYSIS: This feels like Carson Wentz was waiting all the summer only to finally did this on his very purpose just to make us all feel bad. Not me, as I've rated Wentz a bit above the consensus opinion for all of his […]

Zack Moss (RB, BUF) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 2

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 7% of Leagues ANALYSIS: I have to assume when the Bills drafted James Cook with a second-round pick they definitely did not envision what happened to the rookie in his first game--actually first snap--as a pro: one snap played, one fumbled, and just one more snap […]

Robbie Anderson (WR, CAR) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 2

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED IN: 12% of Leagues ANALYSIS: He teased his retirement. He laughed at the idea of having Baker Mayfield as his quarterback. He did all of that, then probably some more, scared the hell out of all fantasy GMs, and when Week 1 arrived all Robbie Anderson […]

Marcus Mariota (QB, ATL) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 2

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 9% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The Saints rallied, Atlanta lost, and Marcus Mariota played mediocre-to-good football. Nothing to be too surprised about, but something to exploit this weekend ahead of the Week 2 slate of games if you decided you'd stream your starter at the quarterback position. […]

Jameis Winston (QB, NO) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 2

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 46% of Leagues ANALYSIS: I don't have an explanation for Jameis Winston's "low" rostership. Yes, he's nearing a fifty-fifty proposition, but that's still low to my eyes. Winston, as wild as he's been career-wise and as much criticism as he's endured, has always performed for his […]

Cleveland Browns D/ST - 2022 Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~210 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~225 ANALYSIS: The Browns were one of my favorite defenses coming into last season, but they didn't quite pan out. They had an up-and-down season as a fantasy unit, but their actual defensive performance wasn't that bad. As I mentioned in my draft article, when I mentioned […]

Baltimore Ravens D/ST - 2022 Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~185 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~200 ANALYSIS: The Ravens are ranked around 13th or 14th on the season, depending on the fantasy rankings system you use, but I believe they can get back to their elite ways in 2022, or at least close to it. The Ravens ranked 21st in my BOD rankings […]

Evan Engram (TE, JAX) - 2022 Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~181 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~211 ANALYSIS: After five seasons with the New York Giants, Engram now finds himself in Jacksonville after signing a one-year, fully guaranteed $9 million contract with the Jaguars. The last two seasons in New York have been a blur for all involved, and that includes Engram. He scored […]

Mo Alie-Cox (TE, IND) - 2022 Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~215 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~269 ANALYSIS: The 2022 offseason has been good for Mo Alie-Cox's (MAC) fantasy value. Jack Doyle retired after nine seasons with the Colts and MAC was handed a generous three-year, $18 million contract extension with $8.2 million guaranteed. Indianapolis did spend a third-round pick on Jelani Woods […]

Sammy Watkins (WR, GB) - 2022 Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~180 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~210 ANALYSIS: Allen Lazard is the first Packer receiver off the board in fantasy drafts, but his seventh-round ADP is way too pricey for me. I expect Sammy Watkins to start on the outside and flourish with a change of scenery. How's this for a narrative? Aaron Rodgers […]

Gabriel Davis (WR, BUF) - 2022 Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~58 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~63 ANALYSIS: The Davis hype train has been steadily gaining steam all offseason and is one that I've been aboard for over a year now. He tends to be a very polarizing player to discuss because his success has been limited to this point and he of […]

Jahan Dotson (WR, WAS) - 2022 Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~123 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~153 ANALYSIS:  It's been proven that rookie receivers can be outstanding bets to finish the season strong and smash their ADP during the second half of the year. Look no further than Amon-Ra St. Brown last year and Justin Jefferson in 2020. Identifying potential rookie WR second-half […]

Austin Hooper (TE, TEN) - 2022 Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~180 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~225 ANALYSIS: Austin Hooper spent the last two seasons in Cleveland after beginning his career with the Atlanta Falcons. In those two seasons with the Browns, Hooper found himself splitting reps with both David Njoku and Harrison Bryant. He went from averaging 6.4 targets per game in […]

Tyler Higbee (TE, LAR) - 2022 Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~155 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~176 ANALYSIS: Everything lined up for Higbee to be a top-10 fantasy tight end in 2021. He had Matthew Stafford replacing Jared Goff as his quarterback, and longtime tight end teammate Gerald Everett took his talents to the Seattle Seahawks, so Higbee no longer had to share […]

Albert Okwuegbunam (TE, DEN) - 2022 Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~140 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~155 ANALYSIS: Third-year tight end Albert Okwuegbunam is set to take over as the starting tight end in Denver after Noah Fant was dealt to Seattle in the Russell Wilson trade. But maybe not so fast, as the Broncos took UCLA TE Greg Dulcich with the 80th […]

J.D. McKissic (RB, WAS) - 2022 Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~140 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~154 ANALYSIS: McKissic was so close to being a Buffalo Bill in 2022, but the Washington Commanders plucked him right from the hands of Bills general manager Brandon Beane. It's clear they value McKissic's contributions on the football field or they would have just let him walk […]

Nyheim Hines (RB, IND) - 2022 Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~115 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~124 ANALYSIS: In 2020, the Indianapolis Colts signed veteran QB Philip Rivers to run their offense. In that one season, Rivers targeted his running backs 25% of the time, with Nyheim Hines earning himself a 14.2% target share. This was the second-highest target share on the team, […]

Christian Watson (WR, GB) - 2022 Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~168 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~179 ANALYSIS:  There is not a clear event happening in the past few weeks that have forced fantasy GMs into fading Watson, and in fact, looking at the chart above you can see how the fall is less pronounced from the end of June until now than […]

Pat Freiermuth (TE, PIT) - 2022 Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~105 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~116 ANALYSIS: Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Pat Freiermuth put together an incredible rookie season that was largely overshadowed by what fellow rookie tight end Kyle Pitts did. He finished with seven receiving touchdowns, tied for the fifth-most ever by a rookie tight end, and 497 receiving yards, the 10th most by a […]

Alec Pierce (WR, IND) - 2022 Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~168 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~179 ANALYSIS: One player getting lost in much of the early rookie draft hype is Indianapolis Colts wide receiver, Alec Pierce. The 53rd overall selection in the 2022 NFL Draft has been impressing coaches in camp. Head Coach Frank Reich was recently quoted as saying, "We're definitely pushing […]

Allen Lazard (WR, GB) - 2022 Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~95 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~105 ANALYSIS: Green Bay Packers wide receiver Allen Lazard enters 2022 atop the depth chart following the departures of Davante Adams to the Las Vegas Raiders and Marquez Valdes-Scantling to the Kansas City Chiefs. Adams and Valdes-Scantling combined for 224 targets last season and quarterback Aaron Rodgers […]

JuJu Smith-Schuster (WR, KC) - 2022 Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~50 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~75 ANALYSIS: Everyone is so focused on JuJu Smith-Schuster's last three seasons, but let's add a little context to these numbers. In 2019, JuJu missed four games and finished with a disappointing stat line of just 40 receptions, 552 yards, and three touchdowns. However, to be fair, […]

DeVante Parker (WR, NE) - 2022 Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~126 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~149 ANALYSIS: Parker’s fantasy value is at the low point after back-to-back mediocre, injury-riddled campaigns, but I think Parker should flourish and be a fantasy sleeper with New England in 2022: New England’s roster is stocked with solid-but-not-spectacular receivers. Agholor had one superb season with the Raiders […]

Christian Kirk (WR, JAX) - 2022 Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~95 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~105 ANALYSIS: Christian Kirk, Zay Jones, Marvin Jones Jr., and Evan Engram sounds like the start of the ultimate Madden team. This land of misfit toys is all being paid handsomely and connected to what is supposed to be the next first ballot hall of fame quarterback. It's […]

Wan'Dale Robinson (WR, NYG) - 2022 Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~167 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~205 ANALYSIS: New York Giants rookie wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson is one of the most intriguing rookie wide receivers from this year's draft. The 21-year-old was utilized as both a wide receiver and running back in two seasons with the Nebraska Cornhuskers, showing off his versatility. Then […]

Melvin Gordon (RB, WAS) - 2022 Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~90 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~98 ANALYSIS: After two productive seasons in Denver, Melvin Gordon III signed a one-year, $4 million deal to remain with the Broncos in 2022. The difference between this season and the two previous ones is that Gordon is likely to play more of a 1B role. It'll […]
