Kenneth Faried (PF, DEN) - Value Play on DraftKings 12/18

Kenneth Faried (at UTA, $6,100) Faried has been struggling with health issues recently, but he looked fully healthy against the Wolves and it wouldn’t be surprising to see him play heavy minutes tonight. He has been hitting and exceeding value in limited minutes recently, and his price is entirely too low for his talent. The […]

Carmelo Anthony (SF, NYK) - Big Money Play on DraftKings 12/18

Carmelo Anthony (at PHI, $8,300) Many people have been saying Kristaps Porzingis has hit the “rookie wall,” but it likely has more to do with Melo taking over games. He has scored 50+ fantasy points in three consecutive games, and he’s contributing in all categories. His price is extremely low for the upside he possesses, […]

Jrue Holiday (PG, NO) and Tyreke Evans (SG, NO) - Stack on DraftKings 12/18

Jrue Holiday (at PHO, $5,100) Holiday only saw 24 minutes in his last game, but he still managed to score over 30 fantasy points. He has now scored 30+ fantasy points in five consecutive games. He should see around 30 minutes tonight, and he gets a great matchup against a fast paced Suns team. Phoenix […]

Tight End Outlooks: Jacob Tamme, Heath Miller and Scott Chandler

If you have needed a tight end at any point during the season, Atlanta Falcons’ Jacob Tamme has been a solid option. He has been flying under the radar, but Tamme has put up solid numbers wee k in and week out. Tamme is quarterback Matt Ryan’s No. 3 option behind Julio Jones and Devonta […]

The Next Men Up - Denard Robinson, Bryce Brown, Brandon Bolden, and Carolina's Committee

There are four new faces coming out of the woodwork to help you out (maybe) at running back in Week 15. LeGarrette Blount (hip), T.J. Yeldon (MCL), Jonathan Stewart (foot), Thomas Rawls (ankle) all suffered injuries in Week 14, and I guess DuJuan Harris (he stinks) is notably out of the way as well in […]

Wide Receivers Sending Out Warning Signals: Amari Cooper, Dez Bryant, Julio Jones, Emmanuel Sanders & More

The theme of this week's Warning Signals piece is essentially "repeat offenders." We'll be taking a look at some players who we've already discussed in the past but are once again throwing up duds at the worst possible time. For the most part, a lot of the key fantasy wide receivers are what they are at […]

Kevin Love (PF, CLE) - DraftKings Big Money Play, 12/17

Kevin Love (vs OKC, $8,000) For all you Serge Ibaka haters out there (cough cough, yours truly, cough), we’re going to see if all that practice of him standing out near the three point line has finally paid off. Because Kevin Love will be taking outside shots. And despite Ibaka’s insistence to hang out near the arc, I am […]

D'Angelo Russell (PG, LAL) - Tournament Value Play for DraftKings, 12/17

D’Angelo Russell (vs HOU, $5,400) The rookie out of Ohio State is bar none the top value play at point guard of the day, despite most likely starting off the bench. Russell has scored at least 41 DraftKings points in two out of his last three games while averaging about 34 minutes of playing time during […]

Fantasy Stock Up: Brandon Bolden, James White

The injury bug has enjoyed sweeping through the NFL and specifically New England this season. LaGarrette Blount joins a long list of fantasy-point-producers that will now be sidelined for the remainder of the season, while Brandon Bolden and James White join another list of those with sudden increased fantasy value and emergent opportunities. Bolden will step in […]

Quarterback Outlooks: Sam Bradford, Tyrod Taylor and Andy Dalton

If you ask two different people about their thoughts on Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Sam Bradford, you would probably get two different answers. Some people believe he is super talented and the Eagles shouldn’t let him test free agency during the offseason. Others think he has absolutely no business being a starting quarterback in the league. […]

Running Back Outlook: Bryce Brown, Christine Michael, Fred Jackson

First it was Marshawn Lynch. An injured abdomen. Likely out for the season. Then, Thomas Rawls. Rushed for over 200 yards in one game, but fractured his ankle three weeks later. Out for the season as well. DuJuan Harris was supposed to get the call, but was subsequently released by the Seahawks after a relief […]

Running Back Outlooks: Jonathan Stewart, T.J. Yeldon, C.J. Anderson

Fantasy football owners will not be happy to hear that Carolina Panthers running back Jonathan Stewart has been ruled out for Week 15 against the New York Giants. He’s not going to play this week. We are going to be very cautious with this," head coach Ron Rivera said, according to Panthers.com. "The MRI came […]

Kevin Durant (SF, OKC) - Big Money Play on FanDuel 12/17

Kevin Durant (at CLE, $10,200) Yes I am trying to fit Kevin Durant and James Harden in my lineups tonight. As they say, big time players, make big time plays, in big time games. As far as regular season games go this game is one of the biggest. The Thunder have quietly won six games in […]

James Harden (SG, HOU) and Trevor Ariza (SF, HOU) - Stack on FanDuel 12/17

James Harden (at LAL, $10,800) This is definitely going to be a popular pick tonight, and rightfully so. Don't over think this one, it's James Harden against the Lakers. With a bunch of relatively safe cheap players available to roster tonight, Harden should not be the only star you can fit into your lineup.   Trevor […]

Keshawn Martin (WR, NE) - Waiver Wire Analysis

Baller Move: Keep on the waiver wire Owned In: 4% of Fleaflicker Leagues Analysis: The New England Patriots always find a way.

Omri Casspi (SF, SAC) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 35% of Yahoo! Leagues ANALYSIS: Omri Casspi had himself a pretty nice day on Tuesday against the Rockets. He recorded 19 points, six rebounds, six assists, and two steals. The scoring came on an efficient 8 of 11 shooting, with three of those makes coming from downtown. […]

Matthew Dellavedova (PG, CLE) - Value Pick on FanDuel 12/17

Matthew Dellavedova (at OKC, $4,200) Matthew Dellavedova is another low priced point guard I think has great chance to exceed value tonight. Of course Kyle Lowry is super tempting, but there are some other stars I have my eye on,  and I think Dellavedova will get starters minutes at a bench players price. There is […]

Jon Leuer (PF/C, PHO) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 36% of Yahoo! Leagues ANALYSIS: Markieff Morris has been struggling this season and has lost his slot in the starting lineup.

Matt Barnes (SG/SF, MEM) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 44% of Yahoo! Leagues ANALYSIS: Matt Barnes was recently moved into the starting lineup for Memphis, and he's been playing very well. Over the last four games, he's averaging 13 points and slightly over nine rebounds a game. Barnes has always been a good defensive enforcer due […]

Wide Receiver Outlooks: Leonard Hankerson, Julian Edelman and Vincent Jackson

Former Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Leonard Hankerson wasn’t without a football team for very long.

Thus far this season he has 26 receptions for 327 […]
