Indianapolis Colts (DEF, IND) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues Owned in 25% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Not traditionally known for their stout defense, the playoff bound Colts are flying under the fantasy football radar for their defense's usefulness. Owned in way too few leagues as evidenced above, they are the featured Thursday night game this week on the road […]

Tim Wright (TE, NE) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues / Continue Monitoring in All Leagues Owned in 10% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: My last recommendation is for managers in deeper leagues who are looking for a tight end option off the Week 6 waiver wire. This past week we saw Tim Wright post a fantastic game of […]

Louis Murphy (WR, TB) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper PPR Leagues / Monitor in All Leagues Owned in 3% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: I told you about Louis Murphy last week on my list of wide receiver sleepers, and I’m going to do it again. With Mike Evans still injured, Murphy is a legitimate plug-and-play wide receiver in deeper leagues, as he […]

Marvin Jones (WR, CIN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues Owned in 24% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Jones was a legitimate red zone threat for the Bengals in 2013, finding pay dirt 10 times. Although to be fair, four of those TDs came in one game. I still expect Jones to slide into that same type of offensive role when he […]

Owen Daniels (TE, BAL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues (Standard and PPR) Owned in 44% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Owen Daniels is coming off a productive game in Week 5 vs. the Colts with 5 catches (7 targets) and 70 yards. With Dennis Pitta out for the season, Daniels is clearly the TE1 on the Ravens and can be considered […]

Brain Quick (WR, STL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues Owned in 44% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: This is the last time I’m going to say this. ADD. BRIAN. QUICK. Austin Davis has proven himself to be a legitimate QB2, and Brian Quick is the main beneficiary. He has been amazingly consistent thus far, especially in PPR leagues, registering either seven receptions or […]

Brian Hoyer (QB, CLE) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues / All 2 QB Leagues Owned in 14% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: After a dramatic comeback win at Tennessee that saw three touchdowns and 292 yards from the hands of Hoyer, the Browns host a middle-of-the-road Pittsburgh defense that gives up 229 yards per game on average. Three touchdowns […]

Jordan Reed (TE, WAS) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Team Leagues (Standard and PPR) Owned in 58% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: My top tight end recommendation this week is Jordan Reed who’s seen just a handful of snaps since Week 1 this year. However, when he does come back (I have my fingers crossed for Week 6) he will become the TE1 […]

Austin Davis (QB, STL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues / All 2 QB Leagues 11% owned in Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Austin Davis has been a very solid fantasy QB for the last couple of weeks (Weeks Three and Five), posting three touchdowns and three-hundred plus yards in each start while only throwing two picks over those games. Though he has […]

Andre Williams (RB, NYG) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues 33% owned in Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: One of our writers Rek outlined the waiver wire pickup of Andre Williams last week here as one of his running back sleepers. This was a fantastic call as Williams will now be the lead running back for the Giants over the next 2 weeks (and […]

CJ Anderson (RB, DEN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Should be owned in 12 team leagues Owned in 6% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: After Montee Ball’s devastating groin injury on Sunday, the Broncos backfield is open for business with multiple candidates to take over the role.

Ronnie Hillman (RB, DEN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All 10+ Team Leagues Owned in 24% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: After Montee Ball’s devastating groin injury on Sunday, the Broncos backfield is open for business with multiple candidates to take over the role. On top of everyone’s lists seems to be Ronnie Hillman, as he was the first guy to go […]

Benny Cunningham (RB, STL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ team leagues and monitor on Waiver Wire Owned in 28% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Benny Cunningham once again comes into the spotlight due to the calf injury that Zac Stacy suffered during week 5's game. I wrote a sleeper post about Cunningham earlier in the season here, but he has […]

Joseph Randle (RB, DAL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in deep STD leagues (14+), Continue monitoring <12 teams Owned in 6% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS:  I'm sure many people have noticed that DeMarco Murray is on fire this year with over 100 yards each of the first 5 games of the season.  This accomplishment has only happened 3 times ever!  To add to this accomplishment Murray […]

Storm Johnson (RB, JAX) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ team leagues Owned in 3% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Sunday proved to be another disappointing day for Toby Gerhart as he sprained his ankle and only carried the ball 4 times for 9(!) yards. Johnson was the lone bright spot with 27 yards on 4 carries as Jacksonville seemed to […]

Justin Forsett (RB, BAL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in all leagues  Owned in 64% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS:  Since the season has begun the Baltimore Ravens knew they would not have Ray Rice due to suspension for a few games.  Little did they know that they wouldn't have him all season long...and end up cutting him.  Most fantasy football experts expected the […]

Odell Beckham Jr. (WR, NYG) – Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ team leagues 20% owned in Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Beckham made his first start of the season on Sunday after spending the first four weeks recovering from a major hamstring injury.
