Coby Fleener (TE, IND) - 2015 Fantasy Football Sleeper

BALLER MOVE: Target ~115 overall  CURRENT ADP: Standard 139, PPR 135 ANALYSIS: Coby Fleener finished last season as the 6th best fantasy tight end. He is currently being drafted as the 14th TE in most standard and PPR leagues. The main reason is that Fleener clearly seems to be the second option at the position […]

Kyle Rudolph (TE, MIN) - 2015 Fantasy Football Sleeper

BALLER MOVE: Target Around Round 10 CURRENT ADP: Overall #114/ TE# 11 ANALYSIS: While Olsen is someone to target early in your drafts, Rudolph can be picked up in the later rounds. Kyle Rudolph has always had immense potential as a big, athletic pass catcher with the Vikings. He has yet to put everything together, mostly […]

Greg Olsen (TE, CAR) - 2015 Fantasy Football Sleeper

BALLER MOVE: Draft Early Fourth/Late Third CURRENT ADP: Overall #47/ TE #3 ANALYSIS: Greg Olsen wasn’t on this list a couple week ago, but with the news that Kelvin Benjamin tore his ACL in practice, Olsen is someone we have to address. I had been teetering back and forth between Olsen (ADP of 47 in standard leagues […]

Tyler Eifert (TE, CIN) - 2015 Fantasy Football Sleeper

BALLER MOVE: Target Towards End of Mid Rounds CURRENT ADP: Overall #178 / TE #22 ANALYSIS: Eifert is a guy I’ve talked about before, but he is worth writing about again. Despite the fact that I have seen some buzz around Eifert in the fantasy community and that his Fantasy Pros consensus rank is TE11, Eifert’s […]

Richard Rodgers (TE, GB) - 2015 Fantasy Football Sleeper

BALLER MOVE:  Target In Last Rounds or as Waiver Pickup CURRENT ADP: Overall #298 / TE #29 ANALYSIS: I was pretty bummed when Jordy Nelson went down with a torn ACL.

C.J. Spiller (RB, NO) - 2015 Fantasy Football Sleeper

BALLER MOVE: Target in Rounds 5-7 Current ADP: 76 STD, 55 PPR ANALYSIS: The Saints have always used multiple running backs in a variety of ways. This year, the two backs who will be featured are Mark Ingram and C.J. Spiller With Ingram the more traditional runner, Spiller will likely assume the pass-catching role. In 2014, […]

Andre Ellington (RB, ARI) - 2015 Fantasy Football Sleeper

BALLER MOVE: Target in Rounds 4-5 Current ADP: 46 STD, 37 PPR ANALYSIS: Andre Ellington is entrenched as the number one back for the Cardinals, so the carries -- as well as the targets -- will be there. His 46 receptions in 2014 ranks as the sixth most amongst running backs last season, despite coming […]

BALLER MOVE: Target In Late Rounds of 14 Team Leagues CURRENT ADP: Overall #233 / WR #74 ANALYSIS: There has been a lot of buzz about Brandon Coleman over the past couple of weeks so I wouldn’t be surprised if his current ADP is actually quite a bit higher than what is listed. When you are […]

Jameis Winston (QB, TB) - 2015 Fantasy Football Sleeper

BALLER MOVE: Target in Rounds 14-16 Current ADP: 166 STD ANALYSIS: Jameis Winston was a controversial figure in college, but his talent has never been in question. Winston is surrounded in Tampa Bay by three massive pass-catchers in Mike Evans, Vincent Jackson and Austin Seferian-Jenkins, all of whom should help Winston be efficient in the red zone. […]

Carson Palmer (QB, ARI) - 2015 Fantasy Football Sleeper

BALLER MOVE: Target in Rounds 12-14 Current ADP: 140 STD ANALYSIS: In 2013, Carson Palmer racked up 4,274 yards and 24 touchdowns, but his 2014 campaign was cut short by an ACL tear after he put up 1,626 yards and 11 touchdowns over six games.
