Kenbrell Thompkins (WR, NE) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add Immediately (Standard Leagues) ANALYSIS: The rookie Thompkins only had 3 catches on 7 targets in the Pats' 23-3 trouncing of the Bucs, but Thompkins and Brady were at least on the same page in the redzone. Two of his 3 catches went for TDs, giving him a great fantasy line. Thompkins remains a high […]

Josh Gordon (WR, CLE) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add Immediately (All League Types) ANALYSIS: Gordon is owned in 71% of leagues already so he's not your typical RotoBaller waiver wire add. That said, he's worth mentioning because of how dominant he was in his first game back from suspension in week 3.  Gordon torched the Vikings with newly installed Browns QB Brian Hoyer. […]

Karlos Dansby (IDP - LB, TEN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Standard Leagues (10+ teams IDP Leagues) ANALYSIS: Last year Dansby posted a career high 101 solo tackles at Miami and has returned back to Arizona, where his career started, to continue his tackling machine ways.  On the season Dansby has 28 solo tackles and has posted 3 solid weeks in a […]

Chiefs (DEF, KC) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add Immediately All Leagues (8+ teams) ANALYSIS: Its amazing how good the Chiefs defense has been.  Last week versus the Eagles they had 6 sacks, 2 interceptions, 3 fumble recoveries, and 1 TD.  The defense on the season has 15 sacks, 4 interceptions, 2 TDs, and 5 fumble recoveries. To make them even […]

Colts (DEF, IND) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Standard Leagues (10+ teams) ANALYSIS: This is a matchup play recommendation as the Colts will be playing the Jaguars in week 4.  Last week the Colts defense did very well against the 49ers (3 sacks, 1 interception, 1 fumble recovery) and I expect them to play well against an atrocious Jaguars […]

Santana Moss (WR, WAS)

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues (12+ teams PPR) ANALYSIS: Santana Moss is steadily posting solid numbers (catches & targets) each week this season. Why?  The Washington Defense is terrible!  This means that the Redskins will be playing from behind most of the season which requires a lot of passing plays.  Therefore Moss will get plenty […]

Nate Washington (WR, TEN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues (12+ teams PPR and standard) ANALYSIS:  If you follow the Tennessee Titans you probably know that Kenny Britt is in the dog house.  If you don’t follow the Titans, now you’re in the know. What this means is that Washington will have a chance to step up and be the #1 WR […]

Santonio Holmes (WR, NYJ) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Standard Leagues (10+ teams) ANALYSIS: Santonio Holmes has been battling injuries for the past couple of years and this past weekend he showed that he can perform when he’s healthy.  He had 5 catches for 154 yards and 1 TD, but at this time he still doesn’t look like he’s 100% (or maybe […]

Danny Woodhead (RB, SD) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stash in all PPR leagues; start in deeper PPR leagues. ANALYSIS: Ryan Mathews owners already know that Woodhead is starting to see an increased role. Add this to Ronnie Brown's TD vulture, and Mathews owners are certainly starting to sweat. Woodhead has now seen double-digit touches in back to-back weeks, and he put up some solid numbers for […]

Jason Snelling (RB, ATL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in deeper leagues or PPR leagues. ANALYSIS: Snelling proved Sunday that the RB situation in Atlanta is going to be a real time-share with Jackson out for the next few weeks. Snelling tallied four catches and 111 yards from scrimmage with a touchdown in Sunday's upset loss to the Dolphins.  Jacquizz saw more snaps and had more […]

Marcel Reece (RB, OAK) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in deeper PPR leagues. ANALYSIS: Reece has a very nice match up this week against the Redskins reeling defense. Reece is a monster, and he has a good opportunity on Sunday to show that he deserves his new contract. He showed his raw talent last season after DMC went down, and he is one of […]

Bilal Powell (RB, NYJ) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stash in all leagues. ANALYSIS: Bilal's slow start has contributed to him still being available in most leagues. While he is on bye next week, he is worth taking a stab at if he is available in your league. With Chris Ivory banged-up from a hamstring injury he received early in the Jet's Week Three win over the […]

Willis McGahee (RB, CLE) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add Immediately ANALYSIS: McGahee is taking a physical now, but once he passes it (if he passes it, that is), we expect him to sign with the Browns.  If you haven't heard, the Browns shipped out Trent Richardson to the Colts and are left with a gaping hole at RB. The old and […]

MLB Lineups Advice for Daily Fantasy Baseball (Fanduel) - September 18, 2013

With the season winding down 🙁 some teams are just giving up and some are fighting for their lives. Though anything can happen in this game, the probability of an ace pitching deeper into a game or a hitter giving it his all is obviously greater in a team that has fight. We oddly have […]

Nate Burleson (WR, DET) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues ANALYSIS: When most people think of the Lions offense, they immediately think Megatron, Reggie Bush and of course Matt Stafford, but the often forgotten about and most undervalued player in this offense is non other than former Vikings and Seahawks great Nate Burleson.  Posting 73 catches on 110 targets […]

Fred Jackson (RB, BUF) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add immediately in all leagues. ANALYSIS: I’m shocked that Fred Jackson is still available in nearly 50% of leagues. In a year with such a thin RB class, Jackson should at least be riding the pine in nearly every league. In spite of being C.J. Spiller‘s backup, Jackson has outperformed Buffalo’s starter and forced […]

Bryce Brown (RB, PHI) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stash in all leagues. ANALYSIS: As much as I hate to admit it as a LeSean McCoy owner and fan, Chip Kelly’s offense makes a full season for Shady far from a guarantee. Should McCoy miss any time, Bryce Brown, still available in 60% of leagues and former High School Player of the Year, stands to step […]
