Fantasy Baseball Trade Targets for Week 17

Sometimes fantasy baseball can resemble the stock market. You want the best portfolio of players without having to pay too much for them. Sometimes to achieve the optimal team, you need to make trades. The best way to gain added value is to trade away an over-performing player for one in a rut. This way, […]

Robbie Grossman (OF, DET) - Week 17 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in leagues of 12+ teams ROSTERED IN: 38% of leagues ANALYSIS: Grossman is one of those guys that's always an afterthought, even in the deepest of leagues, when it comes to fantasy baseball. He's a career .249 hitter and had only had double-digit homers once in eight major league seasons.......prior to this […]

Tua Tagovailoa (QB, MIA) - 2021 Fantasy Football Draft Sleepers

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~130 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~165 ANALYSIS: Tua's ADP of 103 has him getting off draft boards as the QB18... while he has a QB12 projection (again, via PFF). That, translated to a simple ROI figure, means that Tua is the most valuable player at the position with an ADP below 100. He's […]

Cheap Best-Ball Stacks: QB/WR Duos to Draft Late

Best ball is a different beast than traditional season-long fantasy football leagues. No waivers or trades mean hitting the right draft picks from beginning to end is the sole determinant of success. This is quantified by win rates, or how often a player was rostered on league-winning teams. The results are often unexpected because it's […]

Michael Carter (RB, NYJ) - 2021 Fantasy Football Draft Sleepers

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~75 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~89 ANALYSIS: Carter fell to the fourth round of the NFL Draft, but yet he is still the Jets RB with the most upside. The competition for touches in the Jets backfield consists of Carter, Tevin Coleman, Ty Johnson and La’Mical Perine. He rushed for 1,245 yards as a senior, his […]

Robby Anderson (WR, CAR) - 2021 Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~75 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~90 ANALYSIS: You wouldn’t know it by ADP, but Robby Anderson scored the most fantasy points among Panthers receivers last season. He also led them with a 26 percent target share. While fantasy managers are paying up for DJ Moore, Anderson is still going as a WR3 despite finishing […]

Deep-League Quarterback Sleepers

Some people climb stadium steps backward with weights strapped around their wrists and ankles. Others eat hot peppers by the jarful or build tiny ships inside bottles. The hardiest fantasy football degenerates test their mettle by playing in leagues so deep they must scrutinize the relative merits of, say, Andy Dalton and Drew Lock. They […]

James Robinson (RB, JAX) - 2021 Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~50 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~61 ANALYSIS: Robinson may have an industry ADP of 61, but that is dropping fast and it is as high as 90 on certain sites. He is going as an RB3 on all sites. Yes, the Jaguars used a first-round pick on Travis Etienne, but they have talked about […]

T.J. Hockenson (TE, DET) - 2021 Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~45-50 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~58 ANALYSIS: Hockenson was fourth amongst tight ends in receptions (67), third in receiving yards (723), and ninth in touchdowns (six) last season. Additionally, per PlayerProfiler.com, he finished fourth in yards after catch (328) below just Travis Kelce, Darren Waller, and Noah Fant. His combination of talent, athleticism, and projected high […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in leagues of 12+ teams ROSTERED IN: 34% of leagues ANALYSIS: The multi-position eligibility, especially in leagues with shallow benches, is intoxicating isn't it? A look as the surface suggests nothing special about Peterson. The .254 average is, well, average. Four homers and 21 RBI is below average. Peterson has made a […]
