Mark Trumbo (OF, ARI) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues ANALYSIS: Trumbo has been healthy for a while now but has only recently found the groove he was in at the beginning of the season when he was belting HRs left and right.  He has 3 HR and 13 RBIs over his last 8 games.  The BA is not a […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues Owned in 29% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Roy Helu remains one of the better running back handcuffs to have in fantasy football.

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues Owned in 28% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Don't be sleeping on the slight edge that a high-end kicker can give you week to week, because sometimes it's a matter of a few points that separate you from a win.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12 team leagues or deeper Owned in 31% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Ladarius Green is a promising young tight end for the Chargers.

Cecil Shorts (WR, JAX) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12 teams or deeper 56% Owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Apparently beginning the season with a hamstring injury is a good way to get yourself forgotten.

Heck of a Week 3.

Mohamed Sanu (WR, CIN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Most Leagues, Start in Leagues with Three WR Slots Owned in 44% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Sanu is not the Bengals' top wideout, nor is he worthy of being the team's #1 WR even if AJ Green were not there.
