Charles Clay (TE, BUF) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Stream in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 12% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: No, Charles Clay isn't going to light the world on fire, but he's a good bet not to send fantasy players home empty-handed. He is averaging six targets a game if you throw out a two-target Week 3, catching five in three of his […]

Austin Seferian-Jenkins (TE, NYJ) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14- and 16-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 3% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Austin Seferian-Jenkins caught both of his Week 5 targets for 27 yards, and now the Jets will head into Arizona for Week 6 to play against a defense that has performed well against tight ends thus far. Still, as he gets more […]

Brice Butler (WR, DAL) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 14% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Unfortunately, an illegal shift penalty nullified what would’ve been a lovely early touchdown for Brice Butler, and all he ended up with was a two-catch, 20-yard Week 5 game. If Dez Bryant cannot go again in Week 6, then Butler will get […]

Robert Woods (WR, BUF) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 29% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Rest assured, Robert Woods is still Buffalo’s No. 1 receiver despite that lame Week 5 line of two catches for 26 scoreless yards. He was still targeted six times and probably should have had a long touchdown in the third quarter, but […]

Cole Beasley (WR, DAL) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 40% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Interestingly enough, the two weeks that Dez Bryant has been inactive have seen Cole Beasley record his two lowest target totals of the season. He has tallied only four targets in each of Dallas’ last two contests, though he’s caught seven of […]

NBA Rookie Rankings & Tiers for Fantasy Basketball
Rookies in fantasy basketball aren't like the high impact rookies you'll find in fantasy football or baseball. In most standard leagues you can get away with ignoring rookies. Even LeBron James wasn't all that great of a fantasy player in his rookie year. However, with more and more fantasy owners playing in dynasties, keeper leagues, […]

Cordarrelle Patterson (WR, MIN) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14- and 16-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 6% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Cordarrelle Patterson was the hot WR to own a few years ago, but he was never able to put his physical attributes together and use them to his advantage. This season he is slowly seeing his usage increase from returning kicks, to last week […]

Marquise Goodwin (WR, BUF) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 8% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Marquise Goodwin has been good for a long catch every few games this season, but this past week was a little different. Goodwin was tied for the team lead with six targets, catching two passes for 13 yards and a score. While that stat line seems […]

Jeremy Kerley (WR, SF) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 9% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Jeremy Kerley was dominant on Sunday for the 49ers, catching 8-of-13 passes for 102 yards and a TD. This is the second straight game with a TD for Kerley, who has completely separated himself from the rest of the WRs in San Francisco. He […]

Cameron Meredith (WR, CHI) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 3% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Cameron Meredith was the biggest benefactor of the spot opened up by the injury to Kevin White. Meredith led the team with 12 targets, catching nine passes for 130 yards including a TD. He played his largest number of snaps this season, leading all WRs […]

Adam Thielen (WR, MIN) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues until Stefon Diggs returns OWNED IN: 3% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: With Stefon Diggs out, Adam Thielen stepped up in a huge way catching 7-of-8 targets for 127 yards and a TD in the Vikings win over the Texans. Thielen led the team in targets and was easily the most productive […]

Kenny Britt (WR, STL) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 10-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 21% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Kenny Britt has been the most consistent member of the Rams offense all season. On Sunday he had another solid performance, catching five passes on six targets for 75 yards. While it is his teammate Tavon Austin who has dominated the team lead in targets, Britt has […]

Eddie Royal (WR, CHI) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 10-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 47% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: When the Bears lost Kevin White, there were more targets to go around for the entire offense. Eddie Royal was expected to benefit from this, and did somewhat catching seven passes for the second straight game for 43 yards. Royal has had stretches like this in his past, […]

Chris Hogan (WR, NE) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 10-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 45% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Well, it didn’t take long for the Tom Brady-to-Chris Hogan connection to develop. Hogan caught 4-of-5 targets for 114 yards as the Patriots dominated the Browns on Sunday. We were unsure how the return of Brady would affect all of the Patriots WRs, but if things […]

Sammie Coates (WR, PIT) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 10-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 48% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Sammie Coates had a dominating week for the Steelers in Week 5, catching 6-of-11 targets for 139 yards and two TDs. He was actually out-snapped in this one by Markus Wheaton (64% versus 58%), but severely out-produced him with Wheaton putting up a line of two catches […]

C.J. Uzomah (TE, CIN) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14- and 16-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 5% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: C.J. Uzomah has been targeted five times or more in four of his five games and is good for 40-50 yards. At this rate there is no timetable for Tyler Eifert’s return, so Uzomah could be used in a pinch by fantasy owners next […]

Dion Sims (TE, MIA) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 1% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Jordan Cameron is out indefinitely with another concussion, so Dion Sims will be Miami’s starter for the foreseeable future. I would feel better if Ryan Tannehill could hit the broad side of a barn and Sims had more than two catches for 15 yards over the past […]

C.J. Fiedorowicz (TE, HOU) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 2% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Brock Osweiler has not found a groove with franchise receiver DeAndre Hopkins yet, but somehow he has built chemistry with C.J. Fiedorowicz. Fiedorowicz was probably only drafted in AFC South-only fantasy leagues before the season started, but after having eight receptions for 109 yards and a score […]

Will Tye (TE, NYG) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 12% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Will Tye was the best rookie tight end in 2015, which was not saying a whole lot considering the crop was underwhelming and none of the class broke the 500-yard plateau. Yet he still lost the starting tight end competition to incumbent Larry Donnell during […]

Richard Rodgers (TE, GB) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 24% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Jared Cook has wasted yet another opportunity to be an impact player. Many fantasy experts (me included) thought Cook would come to Green Bay and supplant Richard Rodgers as the Packers' starting tight end because of Cook’s superior pass-catching skills. Instead, Cook has six receptions for 53 yards […]

Jesse James (TE, PIT) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 30% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Jesse James may have caught two touchdown passes in his first four games this season, but he was not doing any fantasy favors for anybody when it came to yardage. He only amassed 85 yards over the first month of play, and his longest catch […]
