T.Y. Hilton Has MRI and Kendall Wright Not Practicing

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton had an MRI on his foot earlier this week, according to Indy Sports Central’s Mike Chappell. Chappell didn’t have any insight on whether or not Hilton will miss any time with the injury, but it’s clear that he’s less than 100 percent. Thus far this season Hilton has hauled […]

Limit Your Expectations for Malcom Floyd and Jeremy Langford

It's Wednesday, so you know the waiver wire is bumping like Hotline Bling at Drake's house.  After multiple injuries from big-name players last week, there are some popular replacement adds that fantasy owners will be banking on.  I'm not here to tell you "You shouldn't have added that guy", but rather to temper your expectations […]

Germany, Italy and Spain Roundup

Here we gloss over the main talking points dominating the Spanish La Liga, Italian Serie A and German Bundesliga. Editor’s Note: Be sure to check out all of our […]

Shane Vereen (RB, NYG) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add as RB/flex depth OWNED IN: 68% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Some weeks it's Shane Vereen, some weeks it's Rashad Jennings. Or Andre Williams. Or now Orleans Darkwa. The New York Giants run game is certainly one of the most frustrating situations in all of fantasy football, but Vereen generally offers the most upside, due in no small […]

Brandon LaFell (WR, NE) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add as WR3 and consider for DFS lineups OWNED IN: 52% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady has no shortage of weapons at his disposal, and that now includes Brandon LaFell, who was activated off the PUP list prior to Week 7's win against the New York Jets. LaFell had a nightmare […]

Jameis Winston (QB, TB) - Waiver Wire Pickups

Baller Move: Add in 10+ team leagues Owned in: 30% of Fleaflicker leagues Analysis: Whether you like Jameis Winston or not, it is hard to deny that he has been taking care of the ball more as the season has progressed. After tossing a horrendous seven interceptions in the first four weeks of play (an average of […]

Jordan Reed (TE, WSH) - Waiver Wire Pickups

In every game he has played this year, Jordan Reed has been a focal point of the Redskins offense. Playing in just five games so far, Reed has 35 catches (on 47 targets) and 350 yards with three TDs. It looks like he could finish the year as a high-end TE, and given the lack of depth […]

Demaryius Thomas, Mike Evans, T.Y. Hilton: Wide Receivers Showing Warning Signals?

After last week's rather odd selection of wide receivers, this week's list contains some more traditional names you're likely concerned about. Typically, wide receivers are a lot more consistent than their running back counterparts but considering how bizarre this fantasy season has been thus far, there's been some unexpected fluidity among the more reliable players. Now […]

Stefon Diggs (WR, MIN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

Baller Move: Add in all leagues Owned in: 58% of Fleaflicker leagues Analysis: Public service announcement: feel free to write angry, scathing comments about this next claim, but I would venture to say that Stefon Diggs is the hottest player in fantasy football right now. He already receives my vote for the "Shiniest Diamond in the Deepest Rough" […]

Duke Johnson Jr. (RB, CLE) – Waiver Wire Pickups

Browns RB Duke Johnson Jr. has been an asset to fantasy players in PPR leagues this season. With the volume of injuries at the position over the last few weeks, it is time that players in all leagues consider adding the rookie. Johnson has struggled running the ball this season, averaging just 3.2 yards per […]

EPL SoundBites

This past weekend, the English Premier League showed, once again, why it is one of the most watched football leagues in the world. Most of the games managed to enthrall and keep their audiences hooked until the last minute and even the draws (oh yeah, Manchester United!) were closely followed . Editor’s Note: Be sure […]

Nick Foles (QB, STL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Avoid unless desperate for QB2 OWNED IN: 28% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Seven passing touchdowns in seven games. Fewer than 200 passing yards in six of his seven games. Todd Gurley's emergence as one of the NFL's preeminent running backs. These are just a few of the reasons why you should steer clear of St. […]

Coby Fleener (TE, IND) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add as TE2 but avoid in DFS OWNED IN: 56% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: It's never wise to overreact, good or bad, to a single game. So let's take Coby Fleener's seven-catch, 43-yard, one-touchdown Monday night performance with a grain of salt. The Indianapolis Colts tight end's most recent outing marked just the second time this […]

Antonio Andrews (RB, TEN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add as RB depth but avoid in DFS OWNED IN: 30% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: It's difficult to recommend any player in the Tennessee Titans' offense at this point. The team ranks 31st in total yards per game (309.9) and points per game (17.9), ahead of only the hapless San Francisco 49ers in each category. […]

Fantasy Stock Down? Andy Dalton, Chris Ivory, Danny Woodhead & More

It's very difficult to write any sort of reactionary piece on the heels of Week 8 that doesn't just totally hone in on the plethora of injuries that struck the NFL this past week. Many of these blurbs will relate to them, but we'll attempt to look at some fallers that may have slipped through […]

2015 Fantasy Football Week 9: Risers From Week 8

It's very difficult to write any sort of reactionary piece on the heels of Week 8 that doesn't just totally hone in on the plethora of injuries that struck the NFL this past week. Many of these blurbs will relate to them, but we'll attempt to look at some risers that may have slipped through […]

Zach Ertz (TE, PHI) - Waiver Wire Pickups

Baller Move: Add in 12+ team leagues Owned in: 39% of Fleaflicker Leagues Analysis: It is clear that Zach Ertz' slow start was the result of a painful mid-core injury that required a July surgery. Impatient owners frustrated with Ertz' pedestrian production through the first three or four weeks likely clicked the "minus" button in […]

Kendall Gaskins (RB, SF) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ team leagues OWNED IN: 2% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: The past few weeks have been rough for the running back position. Keep it between us, but I may have cried with Le'Veon Bell this past Sunday. But it's important to power through the stages of fantasy grief and accept that you have […]

Ted Ginn (WR, CAR) - Waiver Wire Pickups

Baller Move: Add in 14+ leagues. Owned in: 33% of Fleaflicker leagues. Analysis: Carolina head coach Ron Rivera says he's "very pleased" with his wide receiver group. While it's hard to argue with the team's success after a 7-0 start, the prognosis for a deep playoff run with the current stable of wideouts leaves a lot […]

Running Backs With Warning Signals For Week 9

This past week of NFL action featured a relentless onslaught of injuries including a host of crushing blows to star running backs. With Le'Veon Bell done for the year and Matt Forte out an undisclosed amount of time, the position as a whole continues to be an absolute mess. Hopefully you've been able to dodge […]

Stevie Johnson (WR, SD) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: WR3/Flex in 10-12 team leagues OWNED IN: 38% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: It has been an offensive clinic for teams playing the San Diego Chargers this season. But, despite a 2-6 start, the Chargers have found the end zone quite often as well, scoring 20 or more points in six of their eight games. Expect Stevie Johnson […]

James Starks (RB, GB) - Waiver Wire Analysis

BALLER MOVE: Handcuff to Eddie Lacy in Deep Leagues OWNED IN: 48% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: The debate over starting running backs in Green Bay appears to finally be over. Barely. Two weeks ago, fantasy owners of Eddie Lacy were furious with his limited play against the San Diego Chargers, out-carried and out-performed by James […]

Willie Snead (WR, NO) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in all formats as WR3 OWNED IN: 42% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: You get a touchdown, and you get a touchdown, and you ... oh, I'm sorry, I was pretending to be Drew Brees there. The New Orleans Saints quarterback torched the New York Giants in Sunday's shootout win, tying the NFL record […]

Charcandrick West (RB, KC) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in all formats OWNED IN: 58% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: If you missed out on West in last week's waiver-wire period, don't repeat that mistake again. If you can still get him in season-long leagues, do it. West will never be confused with Jamaal Charles, the Kansas City Chiefs' stud four-time Pro Bowler […]
