Taysom Hill (QB, NO) - Fantasy Football Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues, 2QB/SuperFlex Leagues ROSTERED IN: 5% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The Saints have now lost four straight games with Siemian as the starter and are starting to fade in the NFC playoff picture. Given that, it seems very likely that New Orleans will turn to Taysom Hill to try and […]

Tua Tagovailoa (QB, MIA) - Fantasy Football Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 33% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Tua Tagovailoa continues to produce solid fantasy numbers in Miami even with his mysterious “injuries” and benchings. Tua completed 27 of 31 passes for 230 yards and a touchdown in a huge win against Carolina in Week 12. He also added four […]

Taylor Heinicke (QB, WFT) - Fantasy Football Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 35% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The Washington Football Team won’t kick off until tonight, but Heinicke has shown flashes of being a viable fantasy quarterback numerous times throughout the 2021 season. Heinicke has put together a stretch of four double-digit fantasy performances. Heinicke has back-to-back games with […]

Carson Wentz (QB, IND) - Fantasy Football Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 58% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Carson Wentz delivered once again in a game he was forced to throw the ball.

Laquon Treadwell (WR, JAX) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED: 0% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It's been a well-documented disappointing professional career for 2016 first round draft pick Laquon Treadwell, collecting just 701 receiving yards and two touchdowns in four seasons for his original team, the Minnesota Vikings. However, in his first stint for a wide-open Jacksonville […]

Ty Montgomery (RB, NO) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED: 0% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Several members of the New Orleans Saints' backfield are still coming and going, but like many teams around the NFL, injuries have forced them to get creative in several spots, and part of that has meant additional opportunity for multi-faceted Ty Montgomery. […]

Matt Breida (RB, BUF) - Fantasy Football Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 22% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The Buffalo Bills signed former Dolphin Matt Breida this past offseason, supposedly to sit third in the running back depth chart behind both Zack Moss and Devin Singletary. And that was precisely what he was until he didn't even make that cut […]

Russell Gage (WR, ATL) - Fantasy Football Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED IN: 19% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The last time we saw Calvin Ridley (get well soon!) doing it on a football field we hadn't even reached November as that happened in Week 7. From the following game on, Gage has always logged a 65-percent+ snap share in […]

Tyrod Taylor (QB, HOU) - Fantasy Football Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 2QB Leagues ROSTERED IN: 11% of Leagues ANALYSIS: We all knew Deshawn Watson was going to stay off the field for the year with 99% confidence. It happened (I mean it is happening and will keep happening) and Tyrod Taylor was the main beneficiary... until he got banged up and he […]

Josh Reynolds (WR, DET) - Fantasy Football Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 1% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The truth is that Josh Reynolds never had a chance as part of the Titans' offense, even with Julio Jones banged up at some points thought the season. That's the only thing that saved Reynolds in Tennessee back in Week 4 when […]

Dontrell Hilliard (RB, TEN) - Fantasy Football Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 28% of Leagues ANALYSIS: If we know anything about Tennessee, then those two things are that 1) the Titans are entering their Bye week this weekend and 2) Derrick Henry isn't coming back any time soon. That means that current RB1 Dontrell Hilliard will 1) not […]

Kendrick Bourne (WR, NE) - Fantasy Football Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 22% of Leagues ANALYSIS: You won't believe this, but the Patriots are leading the AFC East above the Buffalo Bills and have a very solid chance at making it to the postseason. Part of that miracle falls in rookie QB Mac Jones, and part of it is […]

Mac Jones (QB, NE) - Fantasy Football Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 2QB Leagues ROSTERED IN: 38% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The last drafted first-round rookie QB to be picked in the latest NFL draft, Mac Jones has left all of his fellow passers biting the dust this season while leading a not-so-great Patriots offense to the AFC East with 12 games weeks of […]

Rex Burkhead (RB, HOU) - Fantasy Football Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 8% of Leagues ANALYSIS: I'm a simple man: I see an RB1 available in my WW, I go and grab some shares. It's really easy and such a straightforward approach that for those in deeper leagues it should take no time to make that decision. Rex […]

DeSean Jackson (WR, LV) - Fantasy Football Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 4% of Leagues ANALYSIS: DeSean Jackson definitely didn't have a great start to the 2021 season, and it can even be said that his whole Rams tenure was a rather forgettable one this year. LA has played staggering football this season, but other than in Week […]

Jack Doyle (TE, IND) - Fantasy Football Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 1% of Leagues ANALYSIS: You might not love Jack Doyle, but you have to acknowledge how even on a low snap share the Colts tight end has been able to put up numbers more often than not--most of them all in the past five weeks and […]

Cole Kmet (TE, CHI) - Fantasy Football Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 24% of Leagues ANALYSIS: There is a thing about Chicago and it is that the Bears have pretty much sucked for most of the season. Not happy enough with the start to their campaign, Chicago moved on from veteran Andy Dalton to rookie Justin Fields at […]

Boston Scott (RB, PHI) - Fantasy Football Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 19% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Look, we have consumed 12 weeks of games already. In other words, we're past the second-third of the season. With that good chunk of play already in the rearview mirror, call me crazy but I think it's safe to assume Philadelphia hates […]

Jamaal Williams (RB, DET) - Fantasy Football Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 39% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The Lions, somehow, have been able to not win a game 12 weeks into the season. Not a very good stat, but it's not that this team has many truly threatening weapons out there on the gridiron on a weekly basis. And even […]

Nick Westbrook-Ikhine (WR, TEN) - Fantasy Football Week 12 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED IN: 17% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The Titans offense has been ravaged by injuries -- Derrick Henry, Julio Jones, Marcus Johnson and now A.J. Brown. To say that their options are running thin would be an understatement, especially with their top two wide receivers on injured reserved. […]

Matt Breida (RB, BUF) - Fantasy Football Week 12 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 20% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Buffalo Bills running back Matt Breida has been emerging in the team's backfield in recent weeks, and the year is 2021. This is not a typo. The Bills have employed a mostly-timeshare backfield all season long between Devin Singletary and Zack Moss, […]

Tony Jones Jr. (RB, NO) - Fantasy Football Week 12 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 22% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The New Orleans Saints are getting thin at the running back position, and it's all happening quickly. Alvin Kamara will miss another game this week, and it's unclear how serious his injury is at this point or how long he will remain […]

Marquez Valdes-Scantling (WR, GB) - Fantasy Football Week 12 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 16+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 9% of Leagues ANALYSIS: This is definitely just a move for those in the deepest of fantasy leagues. That's mostly because Marquez Vales-Scantling is Green Bay's WR3 and/or WR4 at the very best and prior to W11 he had topped at a 66% snap share while […]

Elijah Moore (WR, NJY) - Fantasy Football Week 12 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues ROSTERED IN: 57% of Leagues ANALYSIS: I'm molly-breaking the self-imposed 50-percent threshold with this post, but I'm glad I'm doing so. Honestly. Because if you go check your WW and you happen to find Moore still sitting in there, then you can grab a prime piece ROS for the […]

Cam Newton (QB, CAR) - Fantasy Football Week 12 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 51% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Cam Newton is so good it's barely believable, and we can only thank the Panthers for handing him another chance (read: deal) to man Carolina's offense ROS after parting ways with him just a handful of months ago. No collusion is attached […]

Tua Tagovailoa (QB, MIA) - Fantasy Football Week 12 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Leagues ROSTERED IN: 45% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Tua Tagovailoa has had a rough season mostly because of his injuries. Other than that, though, he's been a lock to start for the Fins in all games he's been healthy enough to doing so with the exception of W10, in which he […]

Russell Gage (WR, ATL) - Fantasy Football Week 12 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED IN: 17% of Leagues ANALYSIS: I know what you're thinking: how the hell am I going to add a wideout who plays for a quarterback that finished his last two games with a combined 5.8 FP!? And there would be nothing wrong with that statement because that […]

Mac Jones (QB, NE) - Fantasy Football Week 12 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 2QB Leagues ROSTERED IN: 40% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Salute to the 15th pick of the 2021 NFL draft and fifth quarterback off the board. LOL. The Pats can't lose even if they want to, man. Jones, even though being the latest of the top-tier quarterbacks to be selected this past summer, […]

Darnell Mooney (WR, CHI) - Fantasy Football Week 12 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 58% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It is very clear how Darnell Mooney's rostership has grown through the season and how it is now clocking in above 50% easily. That said, I have a good excuse for writing about Mooney's viability as a WW target given the latest […]
