NFL DFS Prop Picks for Ravens @ Steelers - Monkey Knife Fight
We have finally (hopefully) reached game day for the Ravens and Steelers Week 12 matchup.

Hopefully, the game goes off as scheduled and we can hit some... Read More
Jakobi Meyers (WR, NE) - Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED: 53% of Leagues ANALYSIS: While Jakobi Meyers might not be a WR1 in terms of fantasy performance, he--undoubtedly--is the Patriots WR1 these days. That doesn't mean he will always hit, much more considering New England has Cam Newton starting at quarterback. At least Meyers is getting... Read More

NFL DFS Lineup Picks for Week 12 Primetime Slate - DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Football
Another week of NFL football in Week 12 and another game that was derailed by COVID-19. As a Steelers fan, I was disappointed when the Thanksgiving showdown with the division rival Ravens was postponed until Sunday and we ended up with only two games on that slate. Then the game got pushed again to Tuesday... Read More

NFL DFS Prop Picks for Monday (11/30/20) - Monkey Knife Fight
Monday night’s matchup between the Seattle Seahawks and Philadelphia Eagles should be a competitive matchup and offers great opportunities to play props and win with Monkey Knife Fight.

Dalton Schultz (TE, DAL) - Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 22% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Anyone in need of tight end help down the stretch has to be intrigued by the usage of Dallas Cowboys tight end Dalton Schultz over the past month or so. Schultz has earned at least five targets in each of his past four games.... Read More
Jordan Wilkins (RB, IND) - Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 17% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Indianapolis Colts running back Jordan Wilkins has seen his workload fluctuate greatly over the course of the year. He had 31 carries over a two-week stretch in early November, but in his two games prior to that stretch, he had a total of just... Read More
Royce Freeman (RB, DEN) - Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 6% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Don't expect him to line up under center too much more going forward, but Denver Broncos running back Royce Freeman could be in position to close the season strong by working out of his primary position - running back. Phillip Lindsay (knee) suffered... Read More
Breshad Perriman (WR, NYJ) - Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 12% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It might seem scary to consider adding any member of the New York Jets offense after their three-point output this past week against the Miami Dolphins. However, despite the team's offensive struggles this past week - and all season - wide receiver Breshad... Read More
Cam Akers (RB, LAR) - Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 29% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Show me a weirder backfield than the Rams' and I'll show you a liar. It's been 12 weeks, two-thirds of the season, and the Rams have used three rushers in a rather balanced way since the start of the year. Darrell Henderson Jr.... Read More
Sony Michel (RB, NE) - Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 20% of Leagues ANALYSIS: If you have any clue about how the Patriots backfield will operate ROS, I'll be waiting for your call. Sony Michel was active this past Sunday, but he barely made it to the field playing just one snap and hitting the waiting list... Read More
Frank Gore (RB, NYJ) - Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 25% of Leagues ANALYSIS: I already told you about Frank Gore's availability and upside a week ago when La'Mical Perine fell down to injury in W11 and hit the Injured Reserve, making him ineligible until W15 at least. With Perine out, Gore came back to his heavy... Read More
Bisi Johnson (WR, MIN) - Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 0% of Leagues ANALYSIS: With Adam Thielen out, someone had to step up for the Vikings yesterday. Enter second-year WR Bisi Johnson, who had one of the most efficient games of the weekend and helped Minny in getting another W to their season record. Bisi closed his... Read More
Darnell Mooney (WR, CHI) - Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 7% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Remember the 5-1 Bears? Yeah, me neither. LOL. These Bears have turned into the New York Jets in that it'd take a very unusual set of circumstances to roster any of their players not named Allen Robinson II, but here we are. Rookie... Read More
Gabriel Davis (WR, BUF) - Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 3% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The Bills have been missing John Brown all season long. Brown, the team's WR2, has already missed a few games and will keep doing so for the next two weeks after been put in Injured Reserve before the game against the Chargers in... Read More
Sammy Watkins (WR, KC) - Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 44% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It seemed like we would never see Watkins back on a field, but he finally arrived this past Sunday, and considering we're not in Week 1 anymore, Watkins had a reasonably good ease-in/comeback game. Sure, he only scored 7.8 PPR points, but in... Read More
Allen Lazard (WR, GB) - Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 38% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Allen Lazard finally came back last week after missing all games in the W4-W10 span due to injury. He was very eased into the Packers game, logging just four targets of which he caught a couple for 18 yards on the day against Indy,... Read More
Derek Carr (QB, LV) - Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 58% of Leagues ANALYSIS: I shouldn't be writing about Derek Carr because Derek Carr is rostered in more than half of Yahoo fantasy leagues. But in my favor, I have to say that I expect a lot of fantasy GMs (mostly those streaming him) to drop Carr... Read More
Ryan Fitzpatrick (QB, MIA) - Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 20% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Last weekend marked the last time we got to watch rookie QB Tua Tagovailoa play NFL football. The last time to date, that is. He was benched for Ryan Fitzpatrick supposedly because of an injury and not a bad performance, though that was... Read More
Kirk Cousins (QB, MIN) - Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 40% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The Vikings entered Sunday knowing top-wideout Adam Thielen was going to be out. The Panthers already knew, too, so it was pretty clear that most of the offense would be geared toward running with Cook and passing the ball to rookie Justin Jefferson.... Read More
Adrian Peterson (RB, DET) - Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 49% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Thanksgiving surely did wonders to AP. All Day finished last Thursday's game against Houston with 17.5 PPR points--all of them on rushing plays--making that game his season-best and also the first one since W15 of 2019 in which he scored more than 16... Read More
Michael Gallup (WR, DAL) - Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 43% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It is sad, but it is also true: Michael Gallup has been an afterthought this season after having an incredible second-year breakout in 2019. Playing under backup quarterbacks doesn't help, but even with Dak Prescott manning the helm Gallup could only reach 10+... Read More
