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

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 9% of Leagues ANALYSIS: For one reason or another, Russell Gage seems to have found his place in Atlanta’s offense. More than anything, Sanu’s trade opened the door to an extended usage and in the games that’s been the case he has been able to put... Read More

Diontae Johnson (WR, PIT) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 15% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Diontae Johnson of all Steelers is about to finish the 2019 season as the receiver with most snaps to his name on offense among those to play in Pittsburgh this year. Not that he doesn’t merit the accolade, though. Another week, another great... Read More

John Ross (WR, CIN) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 13% of Leagues ANALYSIS: I’m afraid we won’t see Week 1 John Ross any time son, but if Ross is able to put together another performance as that of last weekend I’d be very comfortable playing him next week. Ross came back (at least to a... Read More

Albert Wilson (WR, MIA) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 28% of Leagues ANALYSIS: I don’t know about you, but I surely was very high on Albert Wilson entering the season. Sadly, injuries kept him out for most of the first third of the season and even after getting back he didn’t do a lot in his... Read More

Steven Sims Jr. (WR, NE) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 1% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Washington Redskins wide receiver Steven Sims Jr. has had two straight productive fantasy weeks as he's stepped up as the team's No. 2 receiver behind Terry McLaurin.

Justin Watson (WR, TB) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 6% of Leagues ANALYSIS: With the Tampa Bay Buccaneers ailing at wide receiver, Justin Watson stepped up in Week 16 and saw a career-high 10 targets.

N'Keal Harry (WR, NE) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 10% of Leagues ANALYSIS: New England Patriots wide receiver N'Keal Harry is quietly becoming one of Tom Brady's top red zone targets. Harry has scored touchdowns in two of his past four games. Unfortunately, he's yet to top 20 receiving yards in a game or... Read More

Danny Amendola (WR, DET) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 25% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Veteran greats never die. Danny Amendola, a once 13.5 fantasy points per game-type player, put on one of his best games of the year this past Sunday while facing Tampa Bay. Amendola finished the day with 102 yards on eight receptions (13... Read More

Corey Davis (WR, TEN) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 25% of Leagues ANALYSIS: 2019 has been another disappointing year for former fifth-overall pick Corey Davis. The Tennessee Titans wide receiver has only topped 50 yards on three occasions this year and is yet to post a 100-yard game. He also has only two touchdowns... Read More

Anthony Miller (WR, CHI) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 26% of Leagues ANALYSIS: If anyone other than Allen Robinson (obviously) is excelling in this “new” Mitch Trubisky-led offense of the Bears that must be Anthony Miller. The numbers certainly don’t lie. Just take a look at what happened last Sunday against Green Bay: Miller finished with... Read More

Chris Conley (WR, JAX) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 22% of Leagues ANALYSIS: While Chris Conley’s season hasn’t been the best from a receiver league-wide, not a lot of us would have predicted him finishing the year as the Jaguar with the second-most snaps played in 2019. He’s only trailing D.J. Chark and Conley's incredible game... Read More

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

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 10% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Russell Gage has been a solid PPR performer in three of the past four weeks. He's seen 29 targets over his past four games and is the team's clear No. 2 receiver behind Julio Jones now that... Read More

Breshad Perriman (WR, TB) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 11% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Mike Evans’ came first. Chris Godwin’s followed. The injury bug has hit Tampa Bay so hard that none other than Breshard Perriman has become the go-to guy of the Bucs attack, and he’s more than handling that task. Perriman had his best game... Read More

Diontae Johnson (WR, PIT) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 15% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Diontae Johnson might not be a league winner, but he is still in a very good position to help you get that coveted championship trophy. Just a couple of weeks ago Devlin Hodges helped Johnson reach 60 yards and score a touchdown in... Read More

Kenny Stills (WR, HOU) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 16% of Leagues ANALYSIS: With the return of Will Fuller V, Kenny Stills served as Houston's No.3 receiver on Sunday. How'd he do? Far from bad, as he had his best game of the year by far. Stills did it all and finished the game against Tennessee with... Read More

Breshad Perriman (WR, TB) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 0% of Leagues ANALYSIS: There is no way you are in the semifinals of your fantasy league and you don’t want to have Breshad Perriman in your team. Oh, and at the end of this week’s games, he’s owned in… almost no leagues! Some things I’ll never... Read More

Willie Snead IV (WR, BAL) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 3% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The Ravens edged Buffalo on Sunday and Willie Snead (along with three other players) led Baltimore with three receptions for just 13 yards but a touchdown in the effort, making him the best receiver (other than a tight end) available for Lamar Jackson... Read More

Diontae Johnson, (WR, PIT) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 12% of Leagues ANALYSIS: While it was all about James Washington in Week 13, it was Diontae Johnson’s time this past Sunday. The rookie receiver connected with Devlin Hodges from the very first second of the game against Arizona and finished the day with 60 yards and... Read More

Breshad Perriman (WR, TB) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 0% of Leagues ANALYSIS: As if we hadn’t had enough headaches with Tampa Bay’s offense and its multiple receiving options, Breshad Perriman went full-force in Week 13 and finished the day five receptions on six targets for 87 yards to help the Bucs win their game against... Read More

Anthony Miller (WR, CHI) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 14% of Leagues ANALYSIS: You might not believe me, but in the last three weeks Anthony Miller has out-targeted no. 1 Bears receiver Allen Robinson 33 to 28. Fantasy football is all about opportunities, and that is why this little fact is reason enough to trust... Read More

A.J. Brown (WR, TEN) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 25% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Even in a “bad” game considering what he had been up to lately, A.J. Brown still led all Titans wide receivers in receptions (three) and yards (45) this past Sunday in another win for Tennessee over the Colts. Ryan Tannehill has flipped this... Read More

Josh Reynolds (WR, LAR) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 4% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Brandin Cooks has been back from his concussion two weeks now, but he’s logged just six targets and caught four passes in the span for 56 yards. Those are not horrible numbers, but they are fram from Cook’s average production so one has... Read More

Hunter Renfrow (WR, OAK) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 8% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Consider this a stash and just an option in super deep leagues in which you have either the room to risk rostering a non-playing WR or are so needy of players that you must go all-in with risky gambles. That being said, Hunter... Read More

Taylor Gabriel (WR, CHI) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 7% of Leagues ANALYSIS: I have to start this little column by speaking of Mitchell Trubisky. I’m not a believer, but the quarterback has been putting on some work lately. He has his best game of the season in Thanksgiving to the tune of 338 yards... Read More

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

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 11% of Leagues ANALYSIS: I said it last week and I keep saying it now: Russell Gage can be a league-winner hidden in plain sight. Just in case you don’t know, Julio Jones was also out of Atlanta’s last game and given the status of the franchise... Read More

A.J. Brown (WR, TEN) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 16% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Don't look now, but the Tennessee Titans are right in the thick of the AFC playoff race and rookie wide receiver A.J. Brown has been a big reason why. The team is 4-0 this year when Brown has either 90-plus receiving yards... Read More

Cole Beasley (WR, BUF) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 29% of Leagues ANALYSIS: I'm tired of writing about Cole Beasley. The Buffalo Bills slot receiver remains under 30 percent owned for some reason despite his strong recent play. Beasley's been a big part of Buffalo's short passing game, and his target share plus his... Read More

Mecole Hardman (WR, KC) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 27% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill should play in Week 13 against the Raiders, though hamstring injuries are tricky. If Hill's out, Hardman should step into a bigger role and have a chance to produce. In the first five games of the season,... Read More

N'Keal Harry (WR, NE) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 13% of Leagues ANALYSIS: New England Patriots rookie wide receiver N'Keal Harry scored the only touchdown in the team's 13-9 victory over the Cowboys this past week. In a game where the team was without wide receivers Mohamed Sanu (ankle) and Phillip Dorsett (concussion), they needed... Read More

Jakobi Meyers (WR, NE) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 1% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Sure, N'Keal Harry had the only touchdown on Sunday for the Patriots, but it was another little-owned receiver who had the most interesting day. Meyers was targeted nine times against Dallas, catching four of those for 74 yards on a day where... Read More

Allen Hurns (WR, MIA) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 0% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It's time to talk about risk. Allen Hurns is a huge, huge risk this week, and the reward isn't sky high. A lot of people won't want to take that risk. But the Dolphins are throwing a lot, and Hurns still... Read More

Chris Conley (WR, JAC) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 12% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Nick Foles has now played in two games since returning from collarbone injury. He's thrown 95 passes in those two games. NINETY-FIVE. The Jaguars are playing from behind a lot, which has led to more throws now that they've got a quarterback... Read More

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

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 7% of Leagues ANALYSIS: I’d be ecstatic to have Russell Gage on my team going forward, and I’d be pretty excited at the chance of adding him to it through waivers at this point. Gage is only owned in 4% of the leagues but he is clearly... Read More

Ted Ginn Jr. (WR, NO) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 6% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Although Ted Ginn has struggled to post fantasy points this year, New Orlean’s matchups remain so good that I find it hard to not trust him exploding sooner rather than later. Truth be told, Ginn’s only superb games came all the way back... Read More

Taylor Gabriel (WR, CHI) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 7% of Leagues ANALYSIS: A bad game against the Giants this past weekend and the return to life of Mitchell Trubisky (278 yards on 25 completions and 41 attempts) might turn Taylor Gabriel into an easy-to-acquire waiver wire target this week. Truth be told, Gabriel is... Read More

Hunter Renfrow (WR, OAK) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 16% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Keep in mind that Renfrow sustained an injury in his last game so there is the risk that he misses time. It's a rib-related injury, so it could come down to play under pain, but that only Renfrow knows. We all know Tyrell... Read More

Randall Cobb (WR, DAL) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 14% of Leagues ANALYSIS: After a year of fairly middling production, Randall Cobb has found both the end zone and the 100-yard mark for two consecutive games as the Cowboys have started committing more to their passing game. In Week 11, Cobb caught four of his... Read More

Taylor Gabriel (WR, CHI) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 6% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The Bears are such a mess, but that didn't keep Taylor Gabriel from getting targeted 14 times against the Rams. Gabriel caught seven of those, finishing with 57 yards. The Bears promised to run the ball more, but Matt Nagy must have... Read More

Darius Slayton (WR, NYG) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 25% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The argument for Darius Slayton is pretty simple: He's got a pair of multi-touchdown games in the last three games, and he's coming off a 10-catch, 121-yard performance against the Jets. The upside is clearly there for the rookie, who is turning... Read More

James Washington (WR, PIT) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 8% of Leagues ANALYSIS: JuJu Smith-Schuster is hurt. Diontae Johnson is hurt. Both players have their status for Week 12's meeting with the Bengals up in the air, which is a good reason to take a look at Washington. His numbers don't jump off the page... Read More

Josh Reynolds (WR, LAR) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 7% of Leagues ANALYSIS: With Brandin Cooks (concussion) still out and his return date in question Josh Reynolds was already looking like a solid fantasy add. But now Robert Woods (personal issue) has missed a game and we don't know what to expect in terms of... Read More

Diontae Johnson (WR, PIT) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 15% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Diontae Johnson has been up and down all season long, but he’s showed a ceiling as high as low his floor has been. Sure, he has had four games of under-five fantasy points in 2019, but he also has another four with double-digit... Read More

Keelan Cole (WR, JAX) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 0% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Keelan Cole had another average game in Week 11 against the Colts, receiving four passes (on five targets) for 41 yards and finishing the day with 8.1 fantasy points. Considering Cole’s role both in Jacksonville and in fantasy leagues... Read More

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

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 4% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Although Russell Gage keeps racking more and more snaps by the week, the production has been a little disappointing. An increase in volume was always expected after Mo Sanu’s trade to the Patriots, but Gage has yet to reach 60 receiving yards or... Read More

Ted Ginn Jr. (WR, NO) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 6% of Leagues ANALYSIS: After dropping an egg against Atlanta in Week 10, the Saints and Drew Brees came back to their own selves and smashed Tampa Bay for a 34-17 victory last Sunday. As is the norm, Michael Thomas (114 yards on 8 receptions) and Alvin... Read More

A.J. Brown (WR, TEN) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 20% of Leagues ANALYSIS: After three moderately good performances with Ryan Tannehill manning the Titans as the new starting QB, A.J. Brown had a game to forget in Week 10 against Kansas City. He was targeted four times but could only catch one pass--although he turned it... Read More

Allen Lazard (WR, GB) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 6% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Allen Lazard has been quite a revelation in his second season as a pro considering he only played one game last year as a rookie. The expectations were low but he already has racked up 220 yards on 18 receptions through 10 games... Read More

Demaryius Thomas (WR, NYJ) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 10% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Over his last seven games, New York Jets wide receiver Demaryius Thomas has been one of the most consistent wideouts in the NFL, and he's still rostered in less than 10% of leagues. He's caught at least three passes in all but... Read More

Taylor Gabriel (WR, CHI) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 6% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The Bears offense isn't one to trust this year with Mitchell Trubisky leading it, but somehow Taylor Gabriel has been able to perform to a rather high level considering his environment. Being honest, Trubisky was able to complete quite a nice game in... Read More

Diontae Johnson (WR, PIT) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 18% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Since the start of the season Diontae Johnson has had up and downs but so far he’s the no. 2 wide receiver in Pittsburgh in snaps played (305) only behind JuJu Smith-Schuster (415). For someone playing that many snaps and averaging more than... Read More
