The 26-year-old has five […]

Olabisi Johnson (WR, MIN) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 3% of leagues ANALYSIS: Olabisi Johnson came into the season as an unknown in Minnesota, but has garnered some attention in recent weeks with his production on the field. Given the recent hamstring injury to Adam Thielen and the subsequent re-aggravation of that hamstring on Sunday, […]

Matt Murray Gets The Hook During Loss To Bruins

Pittsburgh Penguins goaltender Matt Murray allowed three goals on 11 shots before being pulled in the second period of Monday's 6-4 loss to the Boston Bruins. It was an uninspiring effort from the 25-year-old, who was on a roll before the contest. Murray owns a 7-3-1 record on the season to go along with a […]

David Pastrnak Extends Point Streak To 12 Games

Boston Bruins right wing David Pastrnak scored an even-strength goal and added an assist during Monday's 6-4 win over the Pittsburgh Penguins. The 23-year-old is now riding a 12-game point streak.

Jay Ajayi (RB, FA) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 10% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The Detroit Lions have been working out free agent running back Jay Ajayi this week, and if he indeed ends up signing with the team, he could become a potential asset as an RB2 or at least a flex during the final […]

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

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 25% of Leagues ANALYSIS: I was the first to expect a heavier workload for both Jack Doyle and/or Eric Ebron this week after T.Y. Hilton was ruled out with an injury, but that wasn’t the case. Doyle was targeted four times and Ebron did so on two […]

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

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 19% of Leagues ANALYSIS: What a relief. After a great game in Week 7 (eight targets, six receptions, 64 yards) with Ryan Tannehill as the starter quarterback, A.J. Brown went on and upset his owners all around the nation being targeted just three times in Week 8 […]

Kalen Ballage (RB, MIA) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 9% of Leagues ANALYSIS: In Week 9, Miami Dolphins running back Kalen Ballage saw his highest snap total since Week 3. He logged 21 snaps in the game and carried the ball seven times for 19 yards. A disappointing output most definitely, but when you consider […]

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

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 5% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The Bears are hard to trust in fantasy terms with Mitch Trubisky manning the QB position, but another week, another great--withing Chicago’s limits--performance by Taylor Gabriel. In a game in which Trubisky could only complete 10 passes for 125 yards, Gabriel completed a […]

Ryan Tannehill (QB, TEN) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 18% of leagues ANALYSIS: At the beginning of the season, not many people would have thought Ryan Tannehill could provide fantasy value in 2019, but here we are heading into Week 10 where he is worth an add in 14-team leagues. Tannehill was named the starter […]

Brandon Allen (QB, DEN) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 2QB Leagues OWNED IN: 2% of Leagues ANALYSIS: After seeing him go down with an injury, the Broncos opted to place Joe Flacco on injured reserve and thus to end his season.

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

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 0% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Dede Westbrook and Marqise Lee were both confirmed out of the Week 9 international game for the Jaguars, and Keelan Cole stepped up to put on a massive performance covering for the two wideouts. His stock is as high as it gets, but […]

Brad Marchand Pots Five Points In Win Over Penguins

Boston Bruins left wing Brad Marchand scored two goals and added three assists during a 6-4 win over the Pittsburgh Penguins on Monday night. He extended his point streak to 13 games with the performance. Marchand now has 10 goals, 18 assists, 41 shots, and 28 penalty minutes through 14 games for the surging Bruins. […]

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

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 6% of Leagues ANALYSIS: With New Orleans coming back from its bye week, not a lot has changed around Ted Ginn Jr. and his situation in the Saints attack.

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

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 27% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Diontae Johnson has struggled in two of his last three games, but still remains one of the team's top targets in the passing game.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 20% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Zach Pascal led the team in targets (6) and receiving yards (76) in Week 9 against the Steelers. He also caught a touchdown pass to make it three touchdowns in his last three games. Pascal appears to be […]

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

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 1% of Leagues ANALYSIS: With Brandin Cooks (concussion) expected to miss some time, the Los Angeles Rams will turn to Josh Reynolds to be their third wide receiver. The Rams have run almost 90 percent of their plays this year in three or four receiver sets, […]

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

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 0% of Leagues ANALYSIS: I do not feel great about recommending Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Breshad Perriman as a waiver wire option, but as someone who pays a lot of attention to targets, I have to pay some attention to Perriman. The fourth-year wideout had […]

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

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 2% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Do the Oakland Raiders have a new top receiver? Maybe!

Chris Herndon IV (TE, NYJ) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 30% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The frustration is real, but you need to keep the faith and believe in Chris Herndon IV. Another week, another DNP for the sophomore, what can we do. This was the time when it really really looked like Herndon was going to see […]

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

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 15% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Welcome to the Darius Slayton Show, folks. Now if you can, give me a better line than that Slayton just put up against Detroit in his Week 9 matchup: two receptions, 50 yards, two touchdowns. Uh oh, that’s producing when production is needed, […]

Nyheim Hines (RB, IND) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 12% of Leagues ANALYSIS: I’m not discovering new grounds here by saying Nyheim Hines is the clear backup and second option to Marlon Mack’s RB1 role in Indy. That is clear as water, but at the same time Hines has a very defined role in the Colts […]

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

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 0% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Feelings about Russell Gage after his first notable performance of the year were mixed, and the fact that that performance came in Week 8 and his ownership is still at zero is a good sign of that, as people didn't deem him […]

Dallas Goedert (TE, PHI) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 27% of Leagues ANALYSIS: If we were discussing a potential trade target here instead of a waiver wire pickup, Dallas Goedert would clearly qualify as a go-to buy-low candidate. From Week 6 to Week 8, Goedert had out-performed Zach Ertz each and every time they shared the […]

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

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 29% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Buffalo Bills wide receiver Cole Beasley continues to be a mostly solid PPR option in his first year with the Bills.
