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

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 23% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Matt Asiata isn’t flashy in any way. In fact, his name usually elicits groans. But the bulldozing Viking is coming off of a BYE and will get to face an Eagles’ defense that just gave up 231 rushing yards to Washington. With Jerick McKinnon not exactly jumping off […]

Devontae Booker (RB, DEN) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 34% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Week 6 was pretty weird all around for the Broncos, but Devontae Booker turned his five carries into 46 yards while catching both of his targets for seven yards on Thursday night against the Chargers. The rookie clearly runs well with the rock in his hands, but […]

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

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 36% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: This upcoming week marks the point in time where Dion Lewis is allowed to start practicing with the team again, per PUP list protocol. His being able to practice logistically doesn’t mean that he’s physically capable of doing so, but it does mean that […]

James White (RB, NE) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 39% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: With opposing defenses needing to heavily focus on the likes of Julian Edelman, Rob Gronkowski and Martellus Bennett downfield, it leaves James White able to operate rather freely out of the backfield. His seven rushes for 19 yards is nothing special, but you’re adding and starting him […]

Jay Ajayi (RB, MIA) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

Baller Move: Add in 10-team leagues Owned In: 37% of Fleaflicker leagues Analysis: And were we ever impressed by Jay Ajayi's 13-42-1 line against Tennessee in Week 5, sheesh. He entered Miami’s Week 6 matchup against the Steelers with rather-low odds of a breakout, which were further dampened by the news that Arian Foster would be active. Ajayi out-snapped […]

Tampa Bay Buccaneers (DEF, TB) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 3% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: The Buccaneers crawled into their Week 6 bye with a myriad of injuries that had basically sidelined their entire defensive line. Hopefully they will be fresh and mostly back in action coming out of the bye. The most important factor when they travel […]

Baltimore Ravens (DEF, BAL) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 10- and 12- Team Leagues OWNED IN: 33% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: The Jets are not playing well, and the Ravens’ defense is the next one that gets to feast on a turnover-heavy NYJ team. Owners will have to adjust accordingly after Fitzpatrick faces off with the Cardinals on Monday night, but you’re […]

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

BALLER MOVE: Stream in Two-Quarterback Leagues OWNED IN: 15% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Sam Bradford and the Vikings will be fresh off of their bye to take on an Eagles defense that has been good, but was just torched by Kirk Cousins and Washington in Week 6. Some injuries to their secondary certainly did not help their defensive effectiveness, […]

Case Keenum (QB, LA) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in Two-Quarterback Leagues OWNED IN: 3% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Only owned in 3% of leagues, Case Keenum is almost guaranteed to be there for the taking this week. Don’t look now, but he has thrown for at least 266 yards in each of the last three weeks. Against the Giants this week, there’s […]

Colin Kaepernick (QB, SF) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in Two-Quarterback Leagues OWNED IN: 9% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Colin Kaepernick may have a permanent place in headlines this season, but he did finally get to play in a real game on Sunday in Buffalo. The results weren’t pretty (13-for-29, 187 yards and one touchdown), but playing against the ravaging Bills defense in […]

Brian Hoyer (QB, CHI) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in Two-Quarterback Leagues OWNED IN: 20% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Brian Hoyer has not only successfully taken over since Jay Cutler went down, but he’s played well enough to the point Bears fans are clamoring for him to hold the job even upon Cutler’s return to health. There’s a pretty good chance those cries […]

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

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 29% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Joe Flacco has been producing in some areas but not others. He’s thrown for at least 298 yards in half of his starts this season, yet only has five touchdown passes to show for it. His touchdown numbers should catch up at […]

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

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 28% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: The definition of solid-but-unspectacular, Alex Smith continues to take advantage of a cupcake schedule to become more fantasy-relevant on a weekly basis than he has been in years. Next up for Smith? A date with the Saints in Kansas City. Smith is […]

Guards to Avoid in Fantasy Basketball Drafts

I'll keep this quick because the title says it all. These guards should be avoided during your 2016-17 fantasy basketball drafts due to their minimal potential in season-long formats.

Fantasy Mad Libs: Starts and Sits for Week 6

Week 6. Can I be honest? I gave up in one league already. For most leagues, it's barely a third of the way through the season, and if you own Le'Veon Bell or Tom Brady it is far too early to cut bait on an entire team. It was my dynasty league, the one I […]
