NFL DFS Advice, Lineup Picks & Sleepers - DraftKings Daily Fantasy Football (Week 2)

Welcome to the Week 2 edition of Daily Fantasy Football DraftKings targets. An introduction is not really all that necessary, as the title of this DFS article pretty much sums up what is going to be discussed. It's important to identify players with good matchups, but we also want to look at their DraftKings prices so […]

Percy Harvin (WR, BUF) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 57% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Percy Harvin impressed in his Week 1 performance against the Indianapolis Colts, hauling in 5-of-5 targets for 79 yards and a touchdown. In fact, Harvin was the only impressive receiver for the Bills, as the team's top wideout, Sammy Watkins, was left catchless on […]

DeAngelo Williams (RB, PIT) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All League Formats OWNED IN: 55% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Week 2 will almost certainly be the last time DeAngelo Williams holds any value once the incumbent starter Le'Veon Bell returns from his two-game suspension. With that being said, Williams was a monster Week 1 against the New England Patriots, rushing for 127 yards […]

Danny Amendola (WR, NE) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14- and 16-Team Leagues Ownership: 12% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Once a PPR phenom, Danny Amendola caught just 27 passes in 2014. Still, despite receiving at least one target in 15 different games, 12 of his receptions came in Weeks 16 and 17. With eight receptions for 63 yards in Week 16, Amendola […]

Thursday Night NFL Matchups Analysis: Week 2 Start/Sit for Fantasy Football

The second Thursday night matchup of the season is hours away, featuring an AFC West division matchup between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Denver Broncos at Arrowhead Stadium. The Denver Broncos have been the class of the division the past four seasons, looking for their fifth straight division title in 2015. The Chiefs were the […]

Buck Allen (RB, BAL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14- or 16-Team Leagues Ownership: 9% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Javorius Allen, also known as "Buck," solidified himself as Justin Forsett's backup in Week 1. Allen was given nine carries, which he turned into 30 yards against the Broncos' tough run defense. Lorenzo Taliaferro has yet to return from injury, so at least […]

Catcher Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds: Week 25

It is officially playoff season in fantasy baseball across all leagues and finding stop gaps in every position can be the key to advancing deep into the playoffs towards a championship. The Catcher position is often hard to fill or appropriately analyze due to the low number of players that are rostered across your league. […]

Andy Dalton (QB, CIN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 42% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Andy Dalton is usually a polarizing fantasy option. He often gets buoyed by his big games, but can put up some big time stinkers. It's a new season though, and his Week 1 performance was very strong against the Raiders. Dalton […]

Jared Cook (TE, STL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add as Backup TE in 12+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 19% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Jared Cook is a physical freak. At 6'5" and 254 lbs with some speed, he can be a true matchup nightmare. Unfortunately, he hasn't quite realized this potential so far in his NFL career. He tends to […]

Phillip Dorsett (WR, IND) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 22% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS:  Last week the Indianapolis Colts' star receiver T.Y. Hilton sustained a bruised knee injury which owner Jim Irsay stated would sideline him a 'few weeks'.  At this time it has been reported that Hilton will be out at least two to three weeks. […]

This Thursday has nine games on the slate starting with the Cubs traveling to Pittsburgh to face the Pirates at 12:35PM. The Athletics head to Chicago to play the White Sox at 2:10PM. Unfortunately, I am going to skip those games and head straight into the later games. I will say that both Kyle Hendricks […]

Eric Ebron (TE, DET) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12 Team Leagues or Deeper OWNED IN: 30% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Eric Ebron was the tenth overall pick a year ago, so clearly he was a highly regarded talent out of college. He's a big target at 6'4" and 265 lbs and should be one of Matthew Stafford's main redzone/endzone […]

Dion Lewis (RB, NE) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-Team Leagues Ownership: 29% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Most people view Dion Lewis as a one-week fill in for LeGarrette Blount, but there could be more potential there. Lewis looks to be the clear choice to take over the Patriots' pass-catching-back role, which has the potential to be very productive. Lewis racked […]

Welcome to the Fierce 40 series of my 2015 College Football Rankings, where I will be counting down the top 40 ranked teams in the NCAA.

Alex Smith (QB, KC) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep and 2QB Leagues Ownership: 37% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: "Game manager" Alex Smith finally has an arsenal of weapons to work with. In his second year, tight end Travis Kelce appears set to emerge as a star. Kelce, who caught five touchdowns in 2014, reeled in two scores in an 106-yard effort in […]

Aaron Nola Could Be Shutdown After Next Start

The Philadelphia Phillies could shut down rookie pitcher Aaron Nola after his next scheduled start. The 22-year-old has 11 starts during his rookie campaign. Nola’s 12th and potential final start of the season would be against the Marlins in Miami on Tuesday. Nola has pitched 175 innings this season between the majors and minors and […]

Danny Woodhead (RB, SD) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 72% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS:  Coming into the 2015 season Danny Woodhead was given the 'sleeper' title.  Now that week 1 is over he no longer a 'sleeper' and rightfully so.  The reason that Woodhead was under the radar a bit was due to a season ending injury he […]

Lance Dunbar (RB, DAL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 34% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS:  For the start of the 2015 season there were many questions about what the running back approach would be for the Dallas Cowboys this season.  With the huge loss of DeMarco Murray to free agency and the lack of drafting or acquiring […]

Tyler Lockett (WR, SEA) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues w/ Return Yards and 14+ Team Standard Leagues OWNED IN: 30% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS:  Tyler Lockett is an interesting case, as he came on strong into Week 1 on the heels of a strong preseason. Fantasy owners and experts alike fell in love with what they saw, though expectations […]

Austin Seferian-Jenkins (TE, TB) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 59% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS:  Austin Seferian-Jenkins, or "ASJ" for those averse to keystrokes, was the lone bright spot for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 1. At the end of the game, ASJ was second on the team in targets with seven, and put together an incredible […]

Bishop Sankey (RB, TEN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 46% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS:  Week 1 was a great week to be an owner with stock in the Tennessee Titans, as they made the Tampa Bay Buccaneers look like a bunch of amateurs. Marcus Mariota is getting most of the attention for his stellar performance, as he […]

Brandon Coleman (WR, NO) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 27% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS:  Brandon Coleman had a strong debut for the Saints, posting a solid 4-41-1 line in Week 1. The reports about Coleman putting serious pressure on Marques Colston, to the point of overtaking him as the true WR2 for New Orleans, seems to now […]

Donte Moncrief (WR, IND) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 39% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Don't be fooled by the fact T.Y Hilton is questionable for week 2 versus the New York Jets: Moncrief is a legit option in Indy's passing attack. With questions pertaining who would take hold of the WR3 role between Moncrief and Phillip Dorsett, Moncrief went undrafted […]

Cole Beasley (WR, DAL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 8% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: While Dez Bryant owners are still sobering up to the fact they lost their first round pick for six weeks (at least), those owners desperate for WR are rejoicing. Terrance Williams is expected to slide into the WR1 role, which leaves us with […]
