Potential Busts for Week 7: Ranking the Top 10 for Fantasy Football

I ran it by my editors upstairs, but they shot down the idea of changing this to a “Nine Potential Busts and One Who Will Inevitably Get 200 Yards” list, and probably rightfully so. I think we will need at least two more weeks of yardage outbursts before we can officially claim correlation between my […]

Caleb Sturgis (K, MIA) - Waiver Wire Pickups

  BALLER MOVE: Add in All 12+ Leagues - Week 7 Streaming Option Owned in 7% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: The best thing that has happened to Caleb Sturgis this week is that he gets to face off against a Bears defense that allows the third most fantasy points to kickers at 10.8 points per game. Why do we […]

Billy Cundiff (K, CLE) - Waiver Wire Pickups

  BALLER MOVE: Add in All 12+ Leagues - Week 7 Streaming Option Owned in 3% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Billy Cundiff may not be the cream of the crop when it comes to fantasy scoring at the kicker position, but for Week 7 of NFL action he gets to face off against the defense allowing the most points to opposing […]

Malcom Floyd (WR, SD) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper PPR Leagues / Stash in Standard Leagues ANALYSIS: Malcom Floyd is a wide receiver that I like for fantasy football, but is also a hard guy to play every week in standard leagues. In Week 1 of the NFL season, he surprised for 11 fantasy points for non-PPR scoring. After seeing a 75% increase in […]

Brian Tyms (WR, NE) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Dynasty Formats / Monitor in All Leagues ANALYSIS: I had been debating with myself whether I should add Brian Tyms in my dynasty league. Ultimately I could not bring myself to pull the trigger, so of course he caught a long touchdown pass on Sunday. I would have regretted it, except I […]

Ryan Tannehill (QB, MIA) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All 2 QB leagues / Stream in 12+ Team Leagues ANALYSIS: I really thought this year would be the year that Tannehill took a huge step forward for the Dolphins. He didn't seem to agree with me, at least not for the first 3 games. In standard leagues for the first 3 […]

Hakeem Nicks (WR, IND) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Very Deep Leagues 57% owned in Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Nicks may never again be the receiver he was in New York in 2011, but if anyone can bring him back to relevancy, it's Andrew Luck. Through six games, he only has 141 yards on 17 receptions, but he has crossed the […]

Week 7 Quarterback Sleepers: After the Waiver Wire

Hello once again RotoBallers, and welcome to Week 7 of NFL action. I apologize to you guys for not getting this out earlier in the week, but due to technical difficulties, I've been unable to get you my weekly QB updates until now. Alas, here we are. Even though waivers ran for most leagues last night, it’s never to late […]

Mark Ingram (RB, NO) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add Immediately in All leagues ANALYSIS: Before going down with a hand injury Mark Ingram, was having the break-out year many of us had wished for him. On the season he has rushed 24 times for 143 yards and 3 touchdowns, in only 2 games. That would be a 6.0 yards per carry average... […]

3 Fantasy Football Players Sending Out Warning Signals After Week 6

  Players That Are Making Me Nervous For Week 7 First, a quick follow up to last week's article: LeSean McCoy obviously decided to bust out after I wrote about him here. The Darren Sproles injury doesn't hurt his chances to continue producing at a high level, either. However, Zac Stacy continued to look bad against […]

Week 7 Risers & Fallers Analysis for Fantasy Football

It feels like this NFL season has been littered with more injuries than ever. Maybe it's because every game, practice, press conference and interview is constantly under a media microscope, but there are a number of players who might be able to step into favorable opportunities to produce for fantasy, spurred by the injury bug […]

Joe Flacco (QB, BAL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Most Leagues / Start on Bye Weeks or 2 QB Leagues Owned in 51% of Yahoo leagues ANALYSIS: Following Flacco's thrashing of the Tampa Bay secondary, fantasy owners may be quick to trust him as a starter on a week-to-week basis. If you are lucky enough to have Baltimore's signal caller as […]

Week 7 Running Back Depth Charts: Updates, Injuries & Stashes

With so much volatility around the NFL given the recent string of injuries, especially to running backs, there have been a lot of changes already with the backfields of many NFL teams. Running backs are a critical component and core building block for all fantasy football teams, so it's important to stay on top of the running back […]

Valeri Nichushkin: Fantasy Hockey Sleeper for NHL Sophomores

  Who is Valeri Nichushkin? Last year saw the emergence of quite a few great NHL rookies. Nathan MacKinnon running away with the Calder Trophy surprised virtually no one, while Ondrej Palat and Tyler Johnson seemingly came out of left field to capture second and third place in Rookie of the Year voting, respectively. One of the […]

Cleveland Browns (DEF, CLE) - Waiver Wire Pickups

  BALLER MOVE: Add in All 12+ Leagues Owned in 33% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Don't look at us like we're crazy for talking about the Cleveland Browns defense as a sleeper waiver wire pickup for Week 7. After a few up and down weeks it seems the Browns are poised for a nice three game run, with three very […]

Jordan Reed (TE, WAS) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues Owned in 60% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: My top waiver wire recommendation for this week is Jordan Reed. Even though he's already 60% owned, that number is still way too low. After waiting the whole season for Reed to get healthy, he showed up the first week he came back with 8 […]

Ryan Tannehill (QB, MIA) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues / Stash for BYE Weeks Owned in 38% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Following his coach's suggestion that he might be benched, Tannehill has silenced any critics over the last two weeks of the fantasy football season. Over that time, he has racked up ~19 points and ~22 points in back to […]

Jace Amaro (TE, NYJ) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues Owned in 9% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: It was Amaro that led all tight ends in targets and receptions in Week 6 (as in all tight ends in all of fantasy football). He even went in for a score, despite just 68 yards on 10 receptions. He also had another […]

Brandon LaFell (WR, NE) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues Owned in 14% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: LaFell is another guy that I mostly dismissed after his first strong game of the fantasy football season. That was justified when he followed it up with just 20 yards against the Bengals when Tom Brady was great, but in Week 6 they were both at their best […]
