FAAB Auction Bidding - Week 10 NFL Waiver Wire Targets

While Week 8 was a disaster for injuries (and thus a gold mine on the waiver wire), Week 9 only has a few must add types. That said, some names that became relevant thanks to fallout from Week 8 may still available because they were on a bye. Week 10 will have the Falcons, Colts, […]

Wide Receivers Waiver Wire for Week 10: Beasley, Johnson, Washington and More

Week 9 is in the books, and to say that it was a crazy one would be an understatement. Antonio Brown was nearly record breaking, while we saw quite a few hot potential waiver wire wide receivers step up as well. Brown was the talking point, but there are a few players who you could […]

With Dion Lewis Out for Season, LeGarrette Blount and James White Become Rosterable

There is outstanding fantasy value for any starting position player on the New England Patriots. Quarterback Tom Brady, tight end Rob Gronkowski, wide receiver Julian Edelman and even kicker Stephen Gostkowski are all studs at the best of their position in fantasy. Dion Lewis was serving as a consistent source of production at running back […]

Reds May Move Chapman, Phillips, Frazier And Bruce

The Cincinnati Reds are looking to move both Aroldis Chapman, Brandon Phillips, Todd Frazier and Jay Bruce before the start of the 2016 season, according to BaseballEssential.com. The shutdown closer and second baseman are more likely to go than the others but there's a chance that all four players are gone before Spring Training. The […]

Kamar Aiken Should Receive the Bulk of the Targets Going Forward

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-Team Leauges OWNED IN: 25% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Kamar Aiken was here last week, and he's going to be here again this week since the bye didn't help his ownership. Aiken has had at least 60 yards in all three games that Steve Smith was unable to finish along with 1 […]

Jamison Crowder Continues to Put Up Solid Numbers

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 20% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Jamison Crowder's been averaging 11.4 points over the last four games in PPR, putting him just outside a WR3 in PPR formats (42nd to be exact). That might not be flashy, but all of that production has just come from his fantasy floor. He's […]

Dorial Green-Beckham Is Expected to Get More Involved

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 35% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Oh boy, here we go believing in Dorial Green-Beckham again. With Kendall Wright out, DGB finally saw significant playing time and even made a difficult catch to help setup a game winning play. He also led the team in targets. Everyone knows who DGB […]

Willie Snead's Contributions Remain Unnoticed

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 52% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Willie Snead's already well known, but his ownership feels barely significant for a player who's been impacting NFL games since Week 4. Snead's been averaging enough points per game the last five weeks to be a low-end WR2 in any format. He needs […]

Davante Adams Has Regained Top Form

BALLER MOVE: Add in 8- and 10-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 55% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: It took a lot of time for Davante Adams to come back to the field - and although his first day back on the job was entirely forgettable, his second actually had some value. Davante Adams is rejoining an offense that's desperately in […]

Brandon LaFell's Ceiling is Too High to Ignore

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 52% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: I hate that I'm endorsing Brandon LaFell, but I have to. Despite career-long drop issues, the Patriots gave LaFell a chance when they signed him in 2014 and he has been surprisingly effective even though his drop issues have not subsided. Tom Brady […]

Look to Owen Daniels if You're Desperate at TE

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues OWNED IN: 32% Owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: The Denver Broncos did not trade for former San Francisco 49er Vernon Davis because they wanted to run a ton of three-tight sets or because Daniels was having such a superb season (more like subpar) and wanted the twosome to team up.  Make […]

Pujols (Foot) Out 4 1/2 Months: Could Miss Opening Day

Albert Pujols underwent surgery on his foot last week and will be out of action for the next 4 1/2 months. The Angels slugger had a plantar plate repaired in his right foot. Pujols will now likely miss Opening Day for the 2016 season. The plantar fasciitis issue has been a nagging problem to the […]

Ahmad Bradshaw a Sneaky PPR Pickup

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 13% owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Well, he scored this week so that's something. This is very clearly Frank Gore's job. However, I still think Bradshaw could carve out a role similar to when he was thriving last season as the pass catching back. Remember, Bradshaw was […]

Shaun Draughn the Back to Own in San Fran?

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues OWNED IN: 1% owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Perhaps the most available pickup of the week, Draughn was the lead back in San Francisco in Carlos Hyde's absence. Draughn grabbed 20 touches, turning them into 96 total yards in a surprising win over the Atlanta Falcons. Popular week 9 pickup, […]

Scoop Up Richard Rodgers if You Need TE Help

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues OWNED IN: 33% owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: The hype surrounding "the other Rodgers" in his rookie season has not come to fruition in his sophomore year. Still, for desperate owners, Rodgers plays with the best QB in the NFL and could start putting together touchdowns if the offense can […]

Don't Sleep on This Lion: Eric Ebron

BALLER MOVE: Add in all 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 37% Ownership on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: In my opinion, the second best waiver option out there for this position is Eric Ebron. Ebron is somehow the 10th highest ranked fantasy tight end and yet only sees ownership in a third of leagues. With Calvin Johnson injured, […]

Ryan Fitzpatrick Has Been a Consistent Fantasy Scorer

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 29% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Ryan Fitzpatrick is the model of inconsistency when it comes to on-field play, but has somehow been decently consistent when it comes to fantasy scoring. Also prone to rushing and throwing touchdowns along with interceptions, why would he be here this week? Well, if […]

Blake Bortles Has a Developed Corps of Weapons

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 58% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Blake Bortles' development isn't going nearly as smoothly as Derek Carr's-- he's producing fantasy points nearly every week this year. In fact, right now he's about to jump past Alex Smith and become the ninth highest scoring QB so far this year. Bortles […]

Derek Carr Is in Full Breakout Mode

BALLER MOVE: Add in 8- and 10-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 63% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Derek Carr is quickly becoming one of the NFL's budding stars as a passer, and more importantly, for our purposes, one of the league's better options in fantasy. After a bumpy start including three under 15 point games in his first five weeks, Carr […]

Tight Ends Waiver Wire: Week 10 Pickups and Adds

Fantasy football gets a little more back to normal this week after owners had to suffer through a bye week where a half-dozen teams were off. You're probably not sweating as much this week with your Tight End. San Diego’s Antonio Gates is the most valuable tight end that is off, and most of the quality […]

Austin Sefarian-Jenkins a Great Injury Stash

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 50% Ownership on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: The hardest market to find waiver pickups is always at tight end. ASJ should be returning to the lineup next week (or soon), and should have the highest upside of any tight end you can find on the waivers. The Buccaneers are going […]
