Jacquizz Rodgers (RB, TB) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues as a Doug Martin handcuff OWNED IN: 29% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Yes, Charles Sims is eligible to return in Week 14, but we all saw how effective Jacquizz Rodgers can still be in space on a nice little flat route that he turned into a crucial first down. Rodgers isn’t playable with […]

Paul Perkins (RB, NYG) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add as a handcuff for Rashad Jennings OWNED IN: 21% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Paul Perkins shows some healthy signs of life when he touches the ball, but the Giants just haven’t been good enough at the running the ball to provide us with two fantasy-viable RBs. He remains nothing more than a handcuff to the preferred goal-line option […]

Shaun Draughn (RB, SF) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues as a Carlos Hyde handcuff OWNED IN: 12% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Shaun Draughn didn’t have a chance to do anything, as the 49ers really couldn’t generate any offense in Week 13 against the Bears. He actually got all of his points from rushing, as he notched 20 yards on five totes. He hadn’t […]

Alfred Blue (RB, HOU) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues as a Lamar Miller handcuff OWNED IN: 9% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Lamar Miller didn’t end up missing much time in Week 13, but Alfred Blue still was the one come in when Miller left, and he also got to come in and play on Houston’s final series in the fourth quarter. He […]

Denard Robinson (RB, JAX) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues as a Jaguars running back handcuff OWNED IN: 7% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Denard Robinson tallied an impressive 17 rushes in Week 13’s ugly matchup against the Broncos, which only yielded 53 yards on the ground. He also chipped in an 11-yard catch, but this day wasn’t likely to produce much fruit against […]

Rex Burkhead (RB, CIN) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 16- and 18-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 5% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Rex Burkhead turned eight rushes into 38 yards and caught four-of-five targets for 28 yards, but also had a fumble lost to take the edge off of his day. It wasn’t anything special, but those in deep PPR leagues may have found his ~8 […]

Aaron Ripkowski (RB, GB) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Very Deep Leagues OWNED IN: 1% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: You don’t want to rely on a fullback in this era of the NFL, but there’s no doubting that Aaron Ripkowski has the confidence of his head coach and quarterback. Christine Michael may very well end up being the go-to goal-line back as time ticks on, […]

Ladarius Green (TE, PIT) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 36% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: It appears we may have finally reached the point of no return with Ladarius Green’s usage, as he had shown flashes in previous weeks when he was utilized, but still hadn’t been in on more than 26% of Pittsburgh’s snaps. That changed in Week 13 against the […]

Zack Ertz (TE, PHI) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 74% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: He’s owned in many Fleaflicker leagues, but may have fallen by the wayside in your league after last week’s middling effort. Zack ZErtz got back to his target-monster ways with nine catches for 79 yards and a TD. With Jordan Matthews (ankle) out, Ertz was pretty much […]

Cameron Brate (TE, TB) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 52% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Cameron Brate set a new season-high mark in receiving yards with 86 in Tampa Bay’s Week 13 victory over the Chargers, as he also returned to the end zone after missing out in the previous two weeks. Brate ran a nice post route that shook the […]

Dennis Pitta (TE, BAL) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 42% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: What year is it?! Relax, it’s 2016 and not 2013, despite what Dennis Pitta’s box score reads. He hadn’t scored in nearly three years, but Pitta made things even wilder by scoring twice! His 9-90-2 line came on 11 targets, which came out of left field after […]

C.J. Fiedorowicz (TE, HOU) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 41% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: C.J. Fiedorowicz saw a healthy nine targets in Week 13 against Green Bay, but they were Brock Osweiler targets. Not only that, but they were Brock Osweiler targets in a snow-covered Lambeau Field. Osweiler isn’t a new factor with Fiedorowicz, sometimes it’s just fun to beat a dead […]

Jermaine Gresham (TE, ARI) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 6% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Jermaine Gresham continues to stir up some deep-league waters here, as he’s averaged roughly six targets per game over his last five contests, and has seen a real uptick in his red-zone usage. He had scored in Weeks 11 and 12, and was tackled at the one […]

Vernon Davis (TE, WAS) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-Team Leagues as a Jordan Reed handcuff OWNED IN: 38% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Vernon Davis turned in a relatively solid effort against an Arizona defense that is well known for its ability to lock down tight ends, but a 5-47-0 line is still not going to help us win in a vacuum. With Jordan Reed […]

Vance McDonald (TE, SF) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 31% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Vance McDonald didn’t stand a chance of producing any value in Week 13, as the 49ers offense barely turned in more stats in Chicago than you or I did. We’ll chalk this one up to the horrible weather and a scary-ineffective Colin Kaepernick, as McDonald had turned […]

Trey Burton (TE, PHI) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues OWNED IN: 2% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Burton has gotten more involved recently thanks to the smattering of injuries to Philadelphia’s offense, as he saw nine targets in Week 13 against the Bengals to the tune of five catches for 53 yards. The Eagles really don’t have much left in the wide-receiver pipeline with Jordan […]
