Rashad Jennings (RB, NYG) - 2015 Fantasy Football Sleeper

BALLER MOVE: Target In Eighth Round CURRENT ADP: Overall #84, RB #31 ANALYSIS: On the surface, it might appear that Jennings is too old, too brittle and in a backfield that's too crowded to trust him. Jennings is 30, a supposed age of decline for running backs, has never played 16 games in a season and […]

BALLER MOVE: Add In Later Rounds CURRENT ADP: Overall #88, RB #34 ANALYSIS: When the Muscle Hamster burst onto the scene during his rookie campaign with 1,926 total yards and 12 TDs, it seemed that he was on his way to being one of the best backs in the game. But the last two seasons […]

Knowing the type of offensive game a team uses and understanding their individual skill sets is crucial in making your picks.

Can QB Ryan Fitzpatrick Bring Fantasy Value To The Jets?

By now everyone who has internet or has watched eight seconds of Sports Center knows that Jets quarterback Geno Smith was sucker punched by an irrelevant former late round draft pick and will miss 6-10 weeks with a broken jaw.

Analyzing and Projecting the Rookie QBs: Tampa Bay's Jameis Winston and Tennessee's Marcus Mariota

Since 2002, only 18 rookie quarterbacks have started week 1 of the season for their team, and five of them came in 2012.

BALLER MOVE: Target in Later Rounds for FLEX Upside in PPR CURRENT ADP: 140 STD, 126 PPR ANALYSIS: With John Fox taking over the helm in Chicago, can Eddie Royal be last season’s Emmanuel Sanders?

Brandon Coleman (WR, NO) - 2015 Fantasy Football Sleeper

BALLER MOVE: Target in Later Rounds for WR3 Upside CURRENT ADP: 201 STD, 159 PPR ANALYSIS: Whenever the words "wide receiver" and "Drew Brees" are in the same sentence, you have to like your chances in fantasy football.

Jorge De La Rosa (COL, SP) - Waiver Wire Analysis

BALLER MOVE: Matchup Streamer OWNED IN: 6% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: I know what you're thinking. You want me to trust a Rockie in a win-or-go-home scenario!?

BALLER MOVE: Target in Rounds 4-5 Current ADP: 42 STD, 39 PPR ANALYSIS: Amari Cooper is regarded as the most "can't miss" wide receiver in this year's rookie class, and he has the talent to back it up.
