BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues OWNED IN: 49% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Rashad Jennings left last week's game with an injury, and hasn't practiced yet this week. It's looking more and more likely that he won't suit up for this week's game versus the Tennessee Titans, especially given that the Giants signed Chris Ogbonnaya as an insurance running […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues OWNED IN: 58% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: With the recent news the DeAngelo Williams is nursing a hand injury, and virtually certain to miss the Week 14 game versus New Orleans, Jonathan Stewart becomes an interesting name to consider grabbing off the waiver wire.

Johnny Manziel (QB, CLE) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Monitor / Add as Streaming Option for Week 14 ANALYSIS: First off, be aware that Manziel may not even have the starting job. Browns coach Mike Pettine said he would make his decision by Wednesday between him and Brian Hoyer. If he is the starter he makes a great fantasy play regardless of his actual QB […]

Marqise Lee (WR, JAX) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper PPR Leagues ANALYSIS: After struggling with hamstring injuries to begin the year, Marqise Lee has finally seen his targets rise dramatically the past 2 games to the point where he may be considered fantasy relevant. With a fantasy playoff schedule of the Texans, Ravens and Titans (who just got torched […]

Latavius Murray (RB, OAK) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues ANALYSIS: I was really looking forward to how Murray would fare against the Rams, but unfortunately he was unable to recover in time from his concussion. He will almost definitely be back for his Week 14 matchup, but it’s not a great one. The 49ers have only given up one rushing […]

Ryan Fitzpatrick (QB, HOU) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add as Streaming Option for Week 14 ANALYSIS: Coming off of an incredible Week 13 performance, Fitzpatrick is primed to have another big day facing a mediocre defense. I am in no way promising another six-touchdown performance from the Harvard product, but Fitzy has some serious starter potential this week, coming in as a low-to-mid QB1. […]

Jordan Cameron (TE, CLE) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues (Monitor Injury Status) ANALYSIS: This coming week the Cleveland Browns will be facing a Indianapolis Colts team has given the 4th most points to opposing TEs. Enter stage left Jordan Cameron as my next tight end recommendation off the waiver wire.  Cameron, who has had an injury plagued season, […]

Garrett Graham / Ryan Griffin (TE, HOU) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Very Deep Leagues OWNED IN: 6% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Looking at the upcoming schedule for the Texans, I see favorable matchups for their tight ends Garrett Graham and Ryan Griffin. Graham is the starter, but is banged up so I'll recommend both since I don't know who will be starting this week.  Over […]

Charles Sims (RB,TB) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leauges OWNED IN:  18% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: As many of you already know, Doug Martin had a rushing TD this weekend. So why am I featuring Charles Sims? Because Sims can be useful for those of you in deep PPR leagues. I mean, he tied Mike Evans for receiving yards in week 13. Okay, so […]

Roy Helu (RB, WAS) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leauges OWNED IN: 34% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: I know that he has had some bad games in between, but I feel like I've been shouting Roy Helu's name from the mountain tops for PPR owners for most of the season now. In fact, he's so much better of a receiver than […]

Doug Martin (RB, TB) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Very Deep Leagues OWNED IN: 61% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The Bucs gave their former Pro Bowl running back, Doug Martin, the bulk of the carries in Sunday's week 13 loss to Cincinnati. Martin ran the ball 18 times for 58 yards and a score. Those 18 carries were the most Martin […]

Stedman Bailey (WR, STL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper PPR Leagues ANALYSIS: Bailey is a guy I’ve been keeping my eyes on since being drafted by the Rams last year.  He finally was able to earn a prominent role in the offense this week, and did more than deliver, hauling in over 100 yards in the first quarter in a dominant performance, […]

Donte Moncrief (WR, IND) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues ANALYSIS: I listed Moncrief on my deep league sleepers page last week, and also previously in the season. With Reggie Wayne sharply declining, now is the time to pick up his replacement off the waiver wire before you miss out.  The Colts have an extremely favorable playoff schedule against the Browns, Texans, and […]

Teddy Bridgewater (QB, MIN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add for Week 14 (Streaming Option) ANALYSIS: It seems to be a staple in my streaming options to pick a QB that’s throwing against the Jets porous secondary. This week, the lucky QB is Teddy Bridgewater. If you’re desperate, Bridgewater is a low-end QB1, high-end QB2 this week based on the matchup. The […]

Jordan Reed (TE, WAS) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ team leagues (PPR) ANALYSIS: This week I’ll be recommending the injury plagued but also very talented Jordan Reed.  I will admit that his matchup this week is not great versus the Rams, but I’m liking his matchup the following week a lot.  With Colt McCoy at quarterback, the Redskins offense has […]

Dan Herron (RB, IND) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues ANALYSIS: Regular readers will remember that Herron was featured last week. Those of you who come to my weekly moderated chats with Zach will also know I was very high on Herron. So what did he do to reward me for talking him up? He rushed eight times for 88 […]
