The injury bug has enjoyed sweeping through the NFL and specifically New England this season.

Bolden will step in […]

Quarterback Outlooks: Sam Bradford, Tyrod Taylor and Andy Dalton

If you ask two different people about their thoughts on Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Sam Bradford, you would probably get two different answers. Some people believe he is super talented and the Eagles shouldn’t let him test free agency during the offseason. Others think he has absolutely no business being a starting quarterback in the league. […]

First it was Marshawn Lynch. An injured abdomen. Likely out for the season. Then, Thomas Rawls. Rushed for over 200 yards in one game, but fractured his ankle three weeks later.

Kevin Durant (SF, OKC) - Big Money Play on FanDuel 12/17

Kevin Durant (at CLE, $10,200) Yes I am trying to fit Kevin Durant and James Harden in my lineups tonight. As they say, big time players, make big time plays, in big time games. As far as regular season games go this game is one of the biggest. The Thunder have quietly won six games in […]

James Harden (SG, HOU) and Trevor Ariza (SF, HOU) - Stack on FanDuel 12/17

James Harden (at LAL, $10,800) This is definitely going to be a popular pick tonight, and rightfully so. Don't over think this one, it's James Harden against the Lakers. With a bunch of relatively safe cheap players available to roster tonight, Harden should not be the only star you can fit into your lineup.   Trevor […]

Matthew Dellavedova (PG, CLE) - Value Pick on FanDuel 12/17

Matthew Dellavedova (at OKC, $4,200) Matthew Dellavedova is another low priced point guard I think has great chance to exceed value tonight. Of course Kyle Lowry is super tempting, but there are some other stars I have my eye on,  and I think Dellavedova will get starters minutes at a bench players price. There is […]

Jon Leuer (PF/C, PHO) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 36% of Yahoo! Leagues ANALYSIS: Markieff Morris has been struggling this season and has lost his slot in the starting lineup.

Wide Receiver Outlooks: Donte Moncrief, Allen Hurns and Rishard Matthews

There have not been many bright spots for the Indianapolis Colts thus far this season, but one bright spot for the team has been wide receiver Donte Moncrief. Moncrief has been playing great throughout the season with 56 catches for 669 yards and five touchdowns. Not only has Moncrief been playing great this season, he […]

Fantasy Stock Down: T.J. Yeldon, Lamar Miller and Andre Ellington

It’s definitely not the time of year when fantasy football owners want to hear about a starter being out with an injury. Then again, fantasy football players never want to hear about a player being out with an injury. One running back who has probably helped lead many teams to their fantasy football playoffs is […]

NBA Waiver Wire: Week 8 Category Streamers

Week 8 is here! This week I stuck to three categories again, as the waiver wire pool just keeps getting thinner and thinner. Going forward you should be paying very close attention to injury news, even if it’s just for a game or two. Rotations are pretty locked in by this point in the season, […]

Fantasy Stock Up: Todd Gurley, Rob Gronkowski and Christine Michael

If you were smart enough to draft St. Louis Rams rookie running back Todd Gurley before the season, you may find yourself still alive in your fantasy football league’s playoffs. Gurley is a no-brainer must start RB1 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 15, especially after the team listed him as probably with a […]

Jeff Teague (PG, ATL) and Al Horford (C, ATL) - Stack on FanDuel 12/16

Jeff Teague (vs PHI, $6,100) When looking for salary relief at the point tonight, look no further than Mr. Teague. He's priced incredibly fairly, and while his recent performance suggests using him in cash is risky, I think his matchup tonight warrants strong consideration in tournament play. His price implied point total is just 23, and facing […]

Theo Riddick (RB, DET) - Waiver Wire Pickup

Baller Move: Flex option in PPR leagues Owned In: 32% of Fleaflicker Leagues Analysis: Riddick has been out-carried and out-rushed by both Joique Bell and Ameer Abdullah.

With a performance like that in shortened playing time, it […]

Avery Bradley (SG, BOS) - FanDuel Value Play for 12/16

Avery Bradley (at DET, $5,800) Chasing points with Bradley might be a relatively popular pick tonight thanks to his recent outbursts, but one of the few times ownership percentages should be the lesser of your concerns is on a night with 12 games. Even with strong performances his last few times on the court, his price hasn't […]

Cameron Artis-Payne (RB, CAR) - Waiver Wire Pickup

Baller Move: Handcuff to Jonathan Stewart, stash away Owned In: 8% of Fleaflicker Leagues Analysis: 16-0 is definitely on everyone's mind in Carolina, but Panthers coach Ron Rivera doesn't only want to win.
