Eric Ebron (TE, DET) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 55% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Just a quick shout in case Eric Ebron was left out on the wire in your league from when he was injured. He returned to action by catching seven balls for 79 yards but does have a horrid matchup against Minnoesta in Week 9 […]

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

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 33% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Cameron Brate has unfortunately only seen three targets in each of Tampa Bay’s last two games, but had garnered 18 of them across the previous two games. Bucs QB Jameis Winston needs Brate’s size and reliable hands over the middle and in the red zone, but he […]

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

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 32% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Green got his first practice in on Oct. 25 during the Steelers’ bye week, which points to his having a decent shot at being activated for their Week 9 game against the Ravens. While it’d be bullish to suggest starting a guy who hasn’t […]

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

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 25% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: C.J. Fiedorowicz has now seen at least seven targets in each of his last four games, and has scored at least six points in half-point PPR leagues in each of his last five. While Fiedorowicz and the Texans are heading into their bye […]

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

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 24% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Davis has been serviceable in three-straight games now, as the return of Jordan Reed was largely offset by Washington playing five quarters in London and Kirk Cousins throwing the ball 58 times. It’ll be hard to bank on Davis for much more than being […]

Virgil Green (TE, DEN) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14- and 16-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 16% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Green popped back up on the radar with a four-catch, 55-yard Week 8 as Denver tangled with San Diego. It wasn’t anything special, but it was encouraging to see him get some love from Trevor Siemian as the Broncos stampede into some great matchups […]

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

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14- and 16-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 10% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Austin Hooper caught all five of his targets in Atlanta's Week 8 points bonanza against the Packers after Jacob Tamme went down with a shoulder injury, and while Tamme's injury isn't considered serious, he's still a longshot to play on Thursday night as Atlanta […]

Matt Asiata (RB, MIN) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 46% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Jerick McKinnon is out for Minnesota’s Monday night game against a rather soft Bears front, and Asiata is coming off of a game where he got 80 total yards on 18 touches. Given how well the Vikings have played defense and how poorly Chicago has played […]

Dion Lewis (RB, NE) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 40% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: We’re still looking at a possible return date of Week 10’s game against Seattle for Lewis, as he started practicing on Oct. 27 after being removed from the PUP list. He’s a popular stash, and rightfully so given how potent New England’s offense is, but he’ll […]

Mike Gillislee (RB, BUF) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 39% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: With LeSean McCoy finally held out of action to rest his ailing hammy, Gillislee looked the part for Buffalo as the spearhead of their RB committee by rushing 12 times for 85 yards and TD. He also caught all three of his targets for nine […]

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

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 33% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: In case you were under a rock on Sunday morning, a report from Jason La Canfora surfaced that stated Ezekiel Elliott may miss extended time under the NFL’s Domestic Abuse policy. You don’t have to believe in Morris being a world-beater to view him as an absolute […]

Rob Kelley (RB, WAS) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 22% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Kelley got the bulk of the work in Week 8 as Matt Jones sat out due to an injury, as the UDFA and preseason darling put together 87 yards and a TD on 21 carries. Washington has a bye in Week 9 before an […]

James Starks (RB, GB) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 19% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: This got some push back last week, but I still hold that James Starks is going to end up being the short-yardage and goal-line beneficiary for the Packers when he returns. Don Jackson only rushed four times for 10 yards, and Knile Davis turned his […]

C.J. Prosise (RB, SEA) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stash in 14- and 16-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 14% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Seattle’s pass-catching rookie rushed four times for 23 yards and caught all four of his targets for 80 yards, including a 43-yard reception on a trick play. While C.J. Prosise and the Seahawks won’t get the Saints defense again, it was apparent that Seattle will use […]

Charcandrick West (RB, KC) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 14% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Charcandrick West was the only active RB left for Kansas City after Spencer Ware left their Week 8 matchup with a concussion, and Jamaal Charles was already out due to his own knee woes. Charcandrick didn’t amaze, rushing 14 times for 52 yards with two […]

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

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14- and 16-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 14% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: The Giants really haven’t been good at running the ball in 2016 (and most of 2015 as well), as Rashad Jennings has failed to build on the momentum he gained at the end of last season. It’s possible that HC Ben McAdoo realized that […]

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

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 12% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Carey tallied four more touches than Jordan Howard to the tune of 35 more yards against the Packers in Week 7, and may very well get more usage in Week 8’s Monday night showdown against a stout Minnesota front. Chicago’s only hope may be […]

Tim Hightower (RB, NO) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 8% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Ok, so his crazy Week 8 workload was more likely a short-term message to Mark Ingram to hold onto the ball, but this is still a handcuff worth owning due to the potency of this New Orleans offense. Tim Hightower turned 26 carries against a […]

Antone Smith (RB, TB) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14- and 16-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 1% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Jacquizz Rodgers left Tampa Bay’s Week 8 pirate fight with the Raiders due to a foot injury, and will only have a few days to recover before the Bucs play on Thursday night against the Falcons. While Peyton Barber (9% owned) was the one […]

Terron Ward (RB, ATL) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14- and 16-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 1% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: With Tevin Coleman on the shelf and Devonta Freeman dealing with a bit of a hip issue (he did fine, of course), Terron Ward was the clear spell-back who rushed six times for 46 yards while catching an 11-yard reception. Atlanta will face a stout Tampa […]

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

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 41% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Carson Wentz has struggled of late, but given the Eagles’ soft upcoming schedule, it looks as though those struggles could come to an end. He faced tough defenses in Weeks 6, 7 and 8 (Washington, Minnesota and Dallas) but will take on […]

Ryan Tannehill (QB, MIA) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 14- and 16-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 22% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Ryan Tannehill should be a very popular pickup this week with a low ownership rate and a home date with the Jets. New York’s secondary is essentially a dream matchup for any quarterback nowadays, and in Week 9 we could see the […]

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

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 14- and 16-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 23% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Joe Flacco continues to throw for an above-average amount of yards, but has been lacking in touchdowns all season. There’s a good chance his shoulder injury has something to do with that, but after using the Ravens’ Week 8 bye to heal up, […]

Sam Bradford (QB, MIN) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in Two-Quarterback Leagues OWNED IN: 16% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Sam Bradford has surprisingly had a resurgent 2016, completing 67.5% of his passes for 1,214 yards, seven touchdowns and one interception. What's even more impressive is that he's done it against a few defenses ranking near the top of league, including those of Houston […]

Trevor Siemian (QB, DEN) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in Two-Quarterback Leagues OWNED IN: 12% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Although Trevor Siemian hasn’t exactly been putting up big numbers, his style of play has been exactly what Denver has needed with a strong run game and stout defense. In Week 9, however, the Broncos have the benefit of taking on the Raiders 32nd-ranked […]

Josh McCown (QB, CLE) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in Two-Quarterback Leagues OWNED IN: 3% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Josh McCown got to feast on a pretty bad Jets secondary in his return from a shoulder injury, but stats are stats, and his say that he went 25-of-49 for 341 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions with 10 yards rushing. The Browns is […]

Nick Foles (QB, KC) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in Two-Quarterback Leagues OWNED IN: 0% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Alex Smith was hit hard in KC’s Week 8 matchup with the Colts, leaving early on with an arm injury before eventually leaving for good after he took a shot to the head. All-in-all, Nick Foles completed 16-of-22 passes for 223 yards, two touchdowns […]

Tim Hightower (RB, NO) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 8% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: As soon as Mark Ingram fumbled in the first quarter against Seattle, his day was over. The Saints then dusted off Tim Hightower and made him the primary back for the remainder of the game. He responded with 102 rushing yards on 26 carries, providing […]

Charcandrick West (RB, KC) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 15% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: As mentioned above, Spencer Ware didn't see the field in the second half against the Colts after leaving with a suspected concussion. Even if Ware clears the concussion protocol in time to play against Jacksonville next week, Charcandrcik West should get enough snaps to have […]

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

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 33% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: At the time of this writing, the Cowboys-Eagles game hasn't even kicked off, yet Alfred Morris could be the most important waiver add of the week. Recent reports have suggested that Ezekiel Elliott could be suspended for a significant amount of time due to a […]
