NFL Survivor League Picks – Survivor Pool Targets and Avoids (Week 10)

The NFL is so unpredictable. I thought the Packers were the lock of the year against the Colts last week. But as soon as the Colts returned the opening kickoff, they took control of the game, never relinquishing the lead. There are no stats that can account for something like that to happen. I'm here, as always, […]

NBA Bench Risers for Fantasy Basketball Week 3

NBA teams have a multitude of players coming off the bench, each with a unique role to fill. As a fantasy owner, you need to decide which of those players can contribute across multiple categories and have the potential to make the most of their time on the court. To find bench players that can contribute more than […]

NBA Waiver Wire: Weekend H2H Offensive Category Streamers (Week 3)

It's never too early to start streaming. Whether you have an opening due to an injury, you auction-drafted a crew of stars and scrubs, or you just didn't bother putting any effort into your last couple draft picks, you probably have a player or two on your team who isn't must-own. You're better off using […]

Trade Deadline Tips: Players to Trade and Players to Trade For, Part 1

The NFL’s trade deadline came and went without much fanfare, but the trade deadline in your fantasy football league will probably not go by as quietly.

Risers and Fallers For Week 10 Fantasy Football

Perhaps more than any other, the NFL is a league that experiences ups and downs at a rapid pace. With only 16 games, there’s little room for error and seemingly endless opportunities for improvement. The same goes for fantasy football, and managing rosters effectively is key to winning that championship. Throughout the season, players get […]

Carson Wentz (QB, PHI) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 38% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: In Week 9, Carson Wentz delivered from a yards perspective (364, despite two interceptions) at the Meadowlands against the Giants. Next week, Wentz gets his easiest matchup yet, against the Falcons at home. Atlanta is surrendering a league-worst 289.6 passing yards per […]

Joe Flacco (QB, BAL) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 25% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Joe Flacco had a nice, post-bye effort against Pittsburgh in Week 9, throwing for 241 yards and a score. Perhaps most importantly, his shoulder didn’t seem to be giving him any issues. In Week 10, Flacco should hit it big against the […]

Alex Smith (QB, KC) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 24% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Alex Smith may have missed Week 9 with a concussion, but as of now it looks as though he’ll be ready to go for Week 10. Nick Foles filled in admirably against Jacksonville, but his very Alex Smith-ian 20-for-33 for 187 yards […]

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

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10-team leagues OWNED IN: 37% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Cameron Brate’s six targets in Week 9 matched his combined total from their previous two games, and he caught five of them for 43 yards and a late, garbage-time TD. Points are points though, and Brate would be yet another beneficiary should Mike Evans be limited or out […]

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

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-team league OWNED IN: 22% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: C.J. Fiedorowicz was on a bye and so his ownership dipped a bit, but owners should scoop up the talented Texan as he’s seen at least seven targets in each of his last four games. While Houston’s Week 10 matchup against the Jaguars isn’t particularly […]

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

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-team leagues OWNED IN: 18% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: I told you last column that Zach Ertz should be picked up, and while some of you probably listened, many probably did not judging by how many leagues he is owned in across the major fantasy websites.  So now is your chance to right your wrong, […]

Richard Rodgers (TE, GB) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-team leagues OWNED IN: 18% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Green Bay’s second-best Richard Rodgers has not been a fantasy factor all season, but thanks to Green Bay’s myriad of injuries to running backs and receivers he caught six passes for 64 yards and was targeted 10 times in his last contest.  Rodgers could post […]

Austin Hooper (TE, ATL) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-team leagues OWNED IN: 18% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Austin Hooper filled in for veteran Jacob Tamme last Thursday as well as Jay Leno used to fill in for Johnny Carson on The Tonight Show.  Hooper had 46 yards and a touchdown reception and will be a solid play this week against Philadelphia’s slumping secondary […]

Austin Hooper (TE, ATL) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-team leagues OWNED IN: 18% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Austin Hooper finally failed to haul in a target in his first start of his NFL career, but still caught three of his six looks for 46 yards and a touchdown against the Bucs. Jacob Tamme normally sits above him on the depth chart, but a […]

Lance Kendricks (TE, LA) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 10-team leagues OWNED IN: 15% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Many fantasy owners will see the season-high 12 targets and 90 yards Lance Kendricks racked up when they check the Rams boxscore from this past Sunday and think that he was awesome, but if they did not watch the game they will not realize he could have […]

Lance Kendricks (TE, LA) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 10-team leagues OWNED IN: 15% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Lance Kendricks saw a whopping 12 targets in Los Angeles’ Week 9 loss against the Panthers, as the tight end hauled in seven catches for the second straight week. His 90 yards were nice, and a season-high mark, but the day could’ve been so much better had […]

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

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-team leagues OWNED IN: 13% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Vance McDonald can only do so much when Colin Kaepernick and Blaine Gabbert are his quarterbacks.  That terrible twosome has never been known for improving the fantasy values of their pass catchers.  But McDonald is doing the best he can to prosper these days when the erratic Kaepernick […]

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

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-team leagues OWNED IN: 13% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: The good news is that McDonald has seen six targets in each of San Francisco’s last two games, with the latest yielding a nice 3-84-1 line for fantasy owners. The bad news is that he has only four catches on those 12 targets, and has benefited from […]

Dominique Jones (TE, MIA) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 12-team leagues OWNED IN: 0% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: If you’re absolutely pressed against the wall for a tight end, then perhaps Mr. Dominique Jones can help you. Jordan Cameron may have to retire thanks to his concussion history, and Dion Sims is also dealing with a concussion ahead of him on the depth chart. Jones caught three-of-four […]

Dominique Jones (TE, MIA) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 12-team leagues OWNED IN: 0% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Dominique Jones only had a half-dozen career catches coming into last weekend, so his three receptions for 42 yards and a touchdown against the New York Jets caught fantasy owners totally by surprise.  With Miami’s top two tight ends concussed, Jones and his bulky 270-pound frame could […]

Chris Ivory (RB, JAX) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10-team leagues OWNED IN: 58% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: It took a couple of weeks and a change at offensive coordinator, but Ivory finally became an important part of the offense. Chris Ivory saw a season-high 18 carries which translated into 107 yards. He should have registered a touchdown as well, but it was inexplicably denied […]

DuJuan Harris (RB, SF) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-team leagues OWNED IN: 10% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Carlos Hyde is once again proving to be injury prone, so it was recent acquisition DuJuan Harris who contributed the most in Week 9 against New Orleans. He did most of his damage in the passing game, racking up 83 yards and a TD in […]

Kenneth Dixon (RB, BAL) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-team leagues OWNED IN: 23% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: As promised, Kenneth Dixon saw a bigger workload after the bye week. The good news: he saw 20 snaps, compared to 30 for Terrance West. The bad news: he only produced 13 yards on nine rushing attempts and zero yards on two receptions. West didn't do much […]
