Alfred Morris (RB, DAL) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-Team Leagues as a handcuff for Ezekiel Elliott OWNED IN: 34% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Another week, another buzzy report that Ezekiel Elliott is basically in the crosshairs of the NFL. Alfred Morris is unplayable for as long as Elliott is active, but if this whole domestic violence case ever amounts to any […]

Kapri Bibbs (RB, DEN) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14- and 16-Team Leagues as a handcuff for Devontae Booker OWNED IN: 19% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Devontae Booker out-touched Kapri Bibbs 26-to-7, and that was in a glorious matchup against the Saints in the dome. Don’t expect anything more out of Bibbs other than his being a handcuff at this point. Denver’s offense just […]

Damien Williams (RB, MIA) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 16- and 18-Team Leagues as a handcuff for Jay Ajayi OWNED IN: 9% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Damien Williams is Jay Ajayi’s handcuff and he hilariously scored two touchdowns on only three touches in Week 10. That sort of hyper-efficiency cannot be relied on in any way of course, but the alarm bells went off briefly […]

Ka'Deem Carey (RB, CHI) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 16- and 18-Team Leagues as a handcuff for Jordan Howard OWNED IN: 7% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Ka'Deem Carey’s momentum from Weeks 6 and 7 has been absolutely demolished lately, but if Jordan Howard misses time then Carey will likely see an uptick in snaps and get some decent work alongside Jeremy Langford. It wouldn’t […]

Fitzgerald Toussaint (RB, PIT) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues as a handcuff for LeVeon Bell OWNED IN: 2% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: With DeAngelo Williams healing from his knee surgery, Fitzgerald Toussaint is now the next man up for Pittsburgh should something happen to LeVeon Bell. While we’re not touting Toussaint as a big talent, the opportunity in Pittsburgh’s high-octane offense is worth […]

Kenneth Farrow (RB, SD) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues as a handcuff for Melvin Gordon OWNED IN: 2% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Another handcuff reminder, as Kenneth Farrow is the only man left standing behind Melvin Gordon now that Dexter McCluster is done. Farrow is a UDFA out of Houston who won the MVP Award at the 2015 Lockheed Martin Armed Forces Bowl, […]
