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 […]

C.J. Spiller (RB, NO) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Pick up in PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 64% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Standing with his concerned teammates, C.J. Spiller watched his counterpart, Khiry Robinson, get carted off the field after a goal line run against the New York Giants; a running assignment that could now be handed off to Spiller instead. Robinson is out for the season with a […]

Langston Galloway (PG/SG, NYK) - NBA Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add for PTS and 3PM OWNED: 46% of Yahoo! Leagues ANALYSIS: You can pretty much just read what I wrote about Rodney Hood. Langston Galloway, like Hood, will help you in 3PM and PTS, and also chip in some rebounds and assists. And just like Hood, he might run into some playing time […]

NBA Waiver Wire: Forwards (Week 2)

Finding productive guys on the wire that are long term options at the forward spot is a difficult task after just a week. This list focuses on two sets of guys. The first two, Marvin Williams and Gerald Green, are guys that won't "wow" by any means but are consistently dependent. The next two, Jeremy […]

Rodney Hood (SG/SF, UTA) - NBA Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add for PTS and 3PM OWNED: 54% of Yahoo! Leagues ANALYSIS: I’ll be honest. I was definitely skeptical of Rodney Hood as a viable fantasy option this season, but he is growing on me. Hood has won the starting SG spot (for now) over Alec Burks, and if he continues to shoot this […]

Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (SG, DET) - NBA Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in all leagues OWNED: 71% of Yahoo! Leagues ANALYSIS: I know, I know, 71% owned is pretty high to be including Kentavious Caldwell-Pope in a Waiver Wire Pickups article, but he wasn’t owned in the RotoBaller Writer’s Fantasy Basketball League until now, so I figured it was worth a write up. I’ll […]

Marvin Williams (SF/PF, CHA) - NBA Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in all leagues OWNED: 46% of Yahoo! Leagues ANALYSIS: Pretty surprised Marvin Williams is owned in less than half of Yahoo leagues. After losing Michael Kidd-Gilchrist for the season, Marvin Williams has been forced into a much larger role on both sides of the ball in Charlotte. Unless Frank Kaminsky or Cody […]

Mo Williams (PG/SG, CLE) - NBA Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in all leagues (Until Kyrie Irving comes back) OWNED: 60% of Yahoo! Leagues ANALYSIS: Mo Williams is a little higher owned than I usually include in these articles, but he should be 100% owned until Kyrie Irving comes back. Let’s get the obvious out of the way. LeBron likes and trusts Mo […]

Andrew Luck’s Bad Night Yields Nightmare Games For Donte Moncrief & T.Y. Hilton on MNF

Monday Night Football was a terrible night for fantasy football owners of the Indianapolis Colts' star wide receivers. Andrew Luck had an awful game but finished with enough stats to save fantasy owners from complete heartbreak. The Colts quarterback threw for 231 yards and two touchdown passes along with three interceptions. Luck looked very bad […]

Marcus Thornton (SG, HOU) - NBA Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add for PTS and 3PM in deep leagues OWNED: 7% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Am I about to write over 300 words on Marcus Thornton? Is he really still in the NBA? Believe it or not, the answer to both of those questions is yes. While I wasn’t originally planning to include Marcus Thornton […]

Keenan Allen’s Injury to Improve Fantasy Value of Stevie Johnson and Malcom Floyd

The bad news for the San Diego Chargers keeps coming. Star wide receiver Keenan Allen is officially out for the season with a lacerated kidney. Allen is leading all AFC receivers in total receptions and has emerged as one of the best fantasy names at his position. The heartbreaking news broke Monday when head coach […]

Dwayne Harris Is Worth a Shot in Very Deep Leagues

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14- and 16-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 7% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Everything in me wanted to stay away from any wide receivers in that ridiculous New York Giants vs. New Orleans Saints shootout. I mean, the game featured 13 passing touchdowns. Well, I couldn't do it, and I'm adding Dwayne Harris to the […]

Brian Hartline Could See a Role Increase

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14- and 16-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 7% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Who was that guy that showed up for the Cleveland Browns in Week 8? Alright, alright, I'm not going to sell the farm to get Brian Hartline on my fantasy team, but hey, if you have a deep bench or want a player […]

Marquess Wilson Could Step into Bigger Role

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14- and 16-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 9% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: While both Matt Forte and Eddie Royal went down with injuries for the Bears in Week 8, we don't have much info on either. All we truly know is that Royal and Forte's injuries aren't season-ending, according to Adam Jahns of the Chicago […]

Malcom Floyd Could Explode Against the Bears

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 22% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Malcom Floyd is a tough man to figure. He's had some solid games in terms of receiving yardage, specifically catching five balls for 95 yards against the Green Bay Packers three weeks ago. Unfortunately, he followed that performance up with a one-catch, seven-yard […]

Each week, we'll be bringing you a list of players who are no longer "ownable" in many fantasy football leagues. Obviously, this list has to be interpreted with a grain of salt, depending on the type of league you play in. If you're in a 14 team league with 5  bench spots, many of these […]

Robert Woods Could Benefit from Easy Coverage

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14- and 16-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 15% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: It seems like forever ago, but there was a time where Robert Woods had a lot of hype on him coming out of USC. It's also been a long time since Percy Harvin had a ton of hype on him. Speaking of Harvin, […]

Jamison Crowder is Worth a Shot in PPR Leagues

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 11% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Jamison Crowder's ownership remained low over the bye week, which is great because he'll be easy to grab now. Since gaining a legitimate role in the Redskins offense, Crowder has hovered between nine and 16 points every week in PPR leagues, creating a […]
