T.J. Warren (SF, PHX) - NBA Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Speculative Add in All Leagues OWNED: 29% of Yahoo! Fantasy Basketball Leagues As a 2014 first round pick for the Suns, T.J. Warren struggled to crack the rotation during the first half of his rookie season. By March and April, however, Warren appeared more comfortable on the court and by the end of the season, he became […]

Kosta Koufos (PF/C, SAC) - NBA Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues OWNED IN: 41% of Yahoo! Leagues ANALYSIS: Kosta Koufos posted his second double-double of the season on Friday against the up-and-coming Timberwolves. With DeMarcus Cousins battling a back injury and Willie Cauley-Stein struggling to make a large impact right away, Koufos has played his way into a respectable role for […]

Week 12 Monday Night Football Analysis: Javorius Allen, Gary Barnidge, Matt Schaub

This is a matchup that doesn't offer much in terms of real life implications. Both teams have had rough seasons and have 26 guys either on injured reserve or that are just out for this game. The players left are a giant pile of fantasy potential just waiting to be sorted through to find that […]

Tyler Eifert Leaves Sunday’s Game Early with Injury, Top Replacements If Needed

Tyler Eifert was putting up another solid performance through three quarters – three catches for 40 yards and a touchdown – before leaving the games versus the St. Louis Rams in the third quarter with a stinger while attempting to recover a Giovani Bernard fumble. Despite the injury, the Cincinnati Bengals won 31-7, but that […]

Ryan Fitzpatrick And Brandon Marshall Both Put On Season-Best Perfomances In Week 12 Victory

The New York Jets have been in a tailspin since starting the season off 4-0, losing four of their last five games, including a Week 10 loss to former Jets coach Rex Ryan and his Buffalo Bills. Frustration had been mounting for both the team and their fans, making Sunday's Week 12 matchup against the Miami […]

Russell Wilson And Doug Baldwin Have Huge Games, Jimmy Graham Out For Season After Seattle's Week 12 Matchup

The Seahawks have picked up the slack after their slow start to the season, winning three of their previous four games prior to Sunday's matchup with the Pittsburgh Steelers. Seattle continued their string of solid performances on Sunday with a 39-30 victory over Pittsburgh, behind huge performances from quarterback Russell Wilson and wide receiver Doug […]

Who Ya Got: DeSclafani or Iglesias?

Back in 2010, the Phillies swept the Reds in the National League Division Series. As a fan of the former, I remember noting similarities between that Cincinnati team and the Phillies of 2007. Both teams ended 14-year playoff droughts on the strength of powerful lineups and found themselves bounced without a win. Each also owed […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice - NBA DFS Lineup Picks for 11/30/15

I apologize in advance to the Sacramento Kings. I'll be picking on them more than any other team in this lineup, but maybe I'm just following suit of every other offense they've faced this season. Now I sound like a high school student, afraid to stick up for those who are constantly ridiculed. But this isn't […]

NBA Daily Fantasy Lineup Picks - FanDuel DFS Basketball Advice for 11/30/15

Welcome to another episode of Jason Bales's daily fantasy basketball advice for FanDuel. In this article, I will be providing you with Daily NBA picks for FanDuel on 11/30/15. The picks will range from some of the elite players, to mid-priced options, and value plays. Without wasting anymore time, let's get down to it!   […]

Tevin Coleman a Solid Fill-In Play for Devonta Freeman

We all know of the type of numbers Atlanta Falcons running back Devonta Freeman is capable of putting up.  The guy has had a phenomenal year both running and catching the football.  Unfortunately for Freeman owners, he's out for today's game against the Minnesota Vikings.  Rookie running back Tevin Coleman is slotted in to take […]

Travis Kelce In, Spencer Ware to Start, Danny Amendola Out, Emmanuel Sanders and Keshawn Martin Active

According to Ian Rapaport, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce is expected to play today despite groin and ankle injuries. With Kelce in the lineup, it is a slight bump up in projections for Alex Smith, but there are still likely better options on the waiver wire. The Buffalo Bills have allowed the sixth-fewest […]

Chris Johnson, Carson Palmer, Larry Fitzgerald, Michael Floyd In For Big Day Against 49ers

The Arizona Cardinals will face the San Francisco 49ers later today, and all signs suggest Chris Johnson will have that bounce-back game fantasy owners have been waiting for. Johnson has one of his best games of the year in Week 3 when they first met the 49ers, rushing for 110 yards and two touchdowns, adding a catch […]

Jarvis Landry and Rishard Matthews in, Darrelle Revis out, Michael Floyd expected to play, Nick Foles in for Case Keenum

According to Ian Rapaport, the Miami Dolphins will have both Rishard Matthews (ill) and Jarvis Landry (knee) in the lineup today. They will be facing a Jets secondary that will be without Darrelle Revis (concussion). This is a boost for quarterback Ryan Tannehill who becomes an intriguing streaming option. Both Landry and Matthews are solid starting options against […]

Under-Performing Stars: Shooting Guard Edition

We’re now a month into the season, and you have spent most of it debating over these struggling shooting guards. If you’re like me, you spent Thanksgiving sulking over Kobe Bryant’s horrific stats. What is there to be thankful for when the Mamba is shooting 31%? Think of this article as your support group and […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice - NBA DFS Lineup Picks for 11/29/15

For this lineup, I am focusing heavily on those playing teams like the Houston Rockets, Philadelphia 76ers or the Los Angeles Lakers. It's tough to really understand what's going on in Houston. The 76ers are in a race with the Golden State Warriors over who can change the zero in their record to a one first. […]

Can You Trust Brian Hoyer, Josh McCown and Tom Brady In Week 12?

New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady is one star that every fantasy football player loves to start. Brady is elite at his position and typically put up points in a most fun fashion. With Thanksgiving so fresh in our memories, Brady is the glorious turkey at the center of the dinner table. Brady is the […]

Jordan Reed and Delanie Walker Are Must Starts at Tight End Position

Have the tight ends of the NFL all gathered together and concocted a plan to punish fantasy football fans? Probably not but the highly inconsistent play from the position can lead to conspiracy theories. No tight end is truly trustworthy on a week-to-week basis but Rob Gronkowski. With Gronkowski’s high salary and matchup against the […]

Danny Woodhead and Antonio Gates Are Best Values on Chargers, Philip Rivers Not As Much

The San Diego Chargers offense has been dismantled with the loss of Keenan Allen. Quarterback Philip Rivers was torching the opposing defenses and established himself as a QB1 for the first half of the season. After losing his top target Allen, Rivers has looked rather ordinary and is no longer a trustworthy fantasy quarterback. Rivers […]

Brian Hoyer, DeAndre Hopkins to Destroy Cameron Jordan and the Saints this Sunday

Yes, you read that correctly—Brian Hoyer could very much play the part of an offensive juggernaut this weekend against Cameron Jordan and the New Orleans Saints. Honestly, it probably doesn’t matter who’s under center for the Houston Texans come game time. Using just about any defensive metric, the Saints are the worst defensive team in […]

Charcandrick West (Concussion), Travis Kelce (Ankle) Questionable: Keep Spencer Ware Ready

The Kansas City Chiefs could be without two of their play-makers on Sunday because both Charcandrick West and Travis Kelce are both listed as questionable for Week 12 against the Buffalo Bills, according to the team’s website. The Chiefs have won four straight games despite not having Jamal Charles in the lineup. The star running […]

Danny Amendola Out: Start Either Keshawn Martin Or Chris Harper Sunday

Danny Amendola won’t be making the trip to Denver for the New England Patriot’s Sunday night game against the Broncos, according to CSN. The wide receiver worked out Saturday morning and his knee simply wouldn’t hold up. Amendola will now be on the long list of play-makers that will be out for the defending Super […]

Tyrod Taylor and Sammy Watkins Are Likely to Underperform Against the Chiefs

Though Rob Ryan’s month certainly didn’t go as planned, his brother Rex has had a good go at things in recent weeks. Sure, Ryan and the Buffalo Bills were unable to close the gap between themselves and the New England Patriots last week in a losing effort, but the game was kept close down to […]

Ben Roethlisberger and Martavis Bryant Are Ready to Test the ‘Legion of Boom’

Yes, the Pittsburgh Steelers are traveling to Seattle to play the Seahawks. Yes, the “Legion of Boom” will very much be present when the opening kickoff takes place. And yes, team captain and quarterback Ben Roethlisberger is still dealing with a nagging foot injury. That said, even with so much damning evidence firmly in place, […]

Brock Osweiler Isn’t Peyton Manning; Don’t Start Him Like He Is

Should this really even be a temptation? Not only is Brock Osweiler preparing for just his second NFL start, but he’s having to plan to take on Bill Belichick, Tom Brady and the New England Patriots. Who in their right mind would be naive enough to give Osweiler the nod in their fantasy league? Well, […]

A's Looking To Trade Lawrie After Lowrie Acquisition

The Oakland A’s are likely go trade Brett Lawrie after the acquisition of Jed Lowrie, according to The San Francisco Chronicle. The A’s dealt for Lowrie last week in a trade with the Houston Astros. It marks the second time that the 31-year-old will be with the A’s. He played three seasons in Oakland before […]

Lamar Miller, DeAngelo Williams, Latavius Murray All In For Rough Games?

The running back position continues to get more frustrating as each week passes by. The already limited options at the position have diminished as Devonta Freeman has been ruled out, and Charcandrick West is expected to miss his game in Week 12. There are three fantasy relevant running backs that should be benched at any […]

Who Ya Got: Dickerson or Pence?

Which outfielders spring to mind when you think about the 2015 season's biggest busts? Hanley Ramirez? Carlos Gomez? Jacoby Ellsbury? All good choices, but no. Going by the difference between their ADP and final Player Rater ranking (both courtesy of FantasyPros), here's your 2015 All-Bust outfield:   Player ADP among OFs Final Rank among OFs […]
