BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 42% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS:  Stevie Johnson put up a great 6-82-1 line in his San Diego Chargers debut against the Detroit Lions. Keenan Allen's fantastic game may have overshadowed Stevie's performance unless you were specifically looking for it. Still available in over half of Fleaflicker leagues, the […]

Week 2 Running Backs: Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds

Week 1 in finally in the books and boy was it a good one. We got plenty of great performances out of the top players in the league (as I'm writing this another stud, Julio Jones, is absolutely going off on Monday Night Football). And then there were some not so great performances out of […]

Spanish La Liga - Week Three

The footballing narrative that continues to sketch its motif upon the Spanish La Liga further embedded itself, once again this weekend, into the absolute highest stations of global football.

Dion Lewis (RB, NE) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Standard / 10+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 8% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: This isn't a surprising name at all. Dion Lewis took 15 carries for 69 yards and had 4 catches for 51 yards against the Steelers defense on Thursday night, where he looked quick, agile, and impressive. That's not to say […]

Marcus Mariota (QB, TEN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 36% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Mariota is a must own right now. Although he only took 16 passes on Sunday, those passes hit their mark with a 209 yard and 4 touchdown game. Mariota is unlikely to ever repeat that kind of efficiency again this season, but showing […]

Tennessee Titans (DEF, TEN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Team Leagues / Week Two Matchup Streamer OWNED IN: 26% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: It's amazing that this defense dismantled the Bucs the way did it. Sure, some of it had to do with Jameis Winston's rookie growing pains, but this team shouldn't have been that dominant. Maybe having Dick LeBeau working on your […]

Jordan Reed (TE, WAS) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Team Leagues / All PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 26% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: It was just a week of surprising tight end performances, and of them all the least surprising is Jordan Reed. We all already knew about his talent - he's shown it every single time he's been on the field. Now with a […]

Ladarius Green (TE, SD) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 21% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: It finally happened. The day everyone hoped for arrived as Ladarius Green caught 5 catches for 74 yards and a touchdown. Suddenly, the mega athlete might be ready to take the next step to become a major fantasy contributor. Gates will remain out for the next three […]

Donte Moncrief (WR, IND) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 25% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: With T.Y. Hilton injured, and an unknown status for Week 2, Moncrief becomes the most obvious wide receiver add in fantasy leagues this week. Being moved up to #2 in the Colts offense is a huge boost, despite what it looked like this week against a […]

James Jones (WR, GB) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 30% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: I can't believe more people didn't jump on the opportunity to own James Jones as soon as he was re-signed to the Packers. You had to know that their #3 WR spot wasn't settled. You had to know that Davante Adams hasn't proved to […]

PGA DFS: DraftKings Fantasy Golf Sleeper Picks and Advice for the BMW Championship

Luckily the football season began this past weekend as there was no golf. Lately, especially last week, I have been getting destroyed. I made eight lineups for the Deutsche Bank Championship, and not one of them placed in the money. That’s good news for this week knowing it can’t get any worse. But this week […]

Tyrod Taylor (QB, BUF) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add as Streamer or QB2 for Deep Leagues OWNED IN: 18% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: On the exact opposite spectrum from Palmer, we have the unknown of Tyrod Taylor. Coming into this week, there was a lot of fantasy speculation as to what Tyrod can do this season. Like Palmer, he's surrounded by a strong […]

Carson Palmer (QB, ARZ) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 52% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: It's surprising that the ownership for Carson Palmer wasn't significantly higher entering the year. Stocked with talent at nearly every surrounding position, Palmer will be throwing regularly this season to Larry Fitzgerald, John Brown, Michael Floyd (Limited in week 1), Andre Ellington, and David […]

Cole Beasley (WR, DAL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 8% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS:  So the news broke after Sunday night's game that Dez Bryant was going to be out for approximately 4-6 weeks as he gets a screw put into his foot. What does this mean? Well, we know it means there will be an […]

David Johnson (RB, ARI) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 48% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS:  Week 1 had it's fair share of injuries, with one major casualty being Andre Ellington. Ellington crumpled to the ground after attempting a small jump cut, and after this Chris Johnson came in and got the bulk of the work. This lead plenty […]

Donte Moncrief (WR, IND) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 25% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS:  Donte Moncrief was the main beneficiary of T.Y. Hilton leaving Sunday's game in Buffalo. It was revealed after the game that Hilton avoided anything terribly serious with his knee, and that it is just a bad bruise that should still sideline him for […]

Minor League Spotlight: Top Fantasy Pitching Prospects from Week 23

Did you see that comeback by Houston on Sunday? How incredible was that?! Down to their last out and they found a way to bounce back and score five runs to win the game. They may not have the best rotation of all the teams that are likely postseason bound, but I feel like they […]

Charles Clay (TE, BUF) - Waiver Wire Analysis

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues (Matchup Streamer) OWNED IN: 38% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Everybody knows that Greg Roman loves his tight ends. What many don’t know is just how good Charles Clay has been. Pro Football Focus rated him as the 9th best pass catching tight end in the league, ahead of players like Jimmy Graham […]

Kenny Stills (WR, MIA) - Waiver Wire Analysis

BALLER MOVE: Stash in 12+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 61% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Jarvis Landry has been getting a lot of (justifiable) love for his rookie year, but Kenny Stills may be the Dolphins wide receiver should be talking about. Or maybe he's just not being talked about enough. Stills finished ahead of Landry in PFF’s end […]
