Jay Cutler (QB, CHI) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add Immediately (All Leagues) ANALYSIS: Cutler had a very respectable Week One performance versus a good Bengals defense, going 21-for-33 with 242 yards, two TD and one INT.  He wasn't sacked once, which is big positive sign considering the Bengals’ front four.  It means that Cutler was able to get rid of the […]

Doug Baldwin (WR, SEA) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep PPR Leagues (12+ Teams) ANALYSIS: Baldwin showed nice chemistry with Russel Wilson on Sunday, catching seven passes for 91 yards vs. very stout looking Carolina defense. Baldwin gets an even tougher matchup this week vs. San Francisco, so you should keep him on the bench for that game for sure. That […]

Sam Bradford (QB, STL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stash (All Leagues) ANALYSIS: Sam Bradford, former #1 pick, is finally looking like the player the Rams expected him to be when they drafted him. He put up 299 yards passing against a solid Cardinals' secondary, while leading the Rams to 14 points in the fourth quarter for a come-from-behind 27-24 win.  Bradford did […]

Terrelle Pryor (QB, OAK) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add Immediately (All Leagues) ANALYSIS: Raiders fans should be thanking the late Al Davis for believing in Smith’s ability to lead a team.  If he keeps up his performance, he may single-handedly take the Raiders out of the Jadeveon Clowney sweepstakes.  Pryor's value is in his running game-- 13 rushes for 112 yards, parallel to […]

Kansas City (Def, KC) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add Immediately ANALYSIS: Coming into Week One, many experts and fantasy sites had the Chiefs D/ST ranked in the bottom third of the league. They had a favorable matchup in Jacksonville, but “favorable” and “execution” are two very different things. What they did was take care of business, pitching a shutout. Jacksonville’s lone score […]

Montee Ball (RB, DEN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stash (All Leagues) ANALYSIS: The Broncos made Ball their man with the 26th pick in the second round of the 2013 draft. Ball was an easy choice as he played in good system in college and had a solid 4 years of college experience under his belt. He is very quick and he's a bruiser. […]

Geno Smith (QB, NYJ) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Continue Scouting (Add in Deep Leagues) ANALYSIS: Smith is coming off an impressive debut in which he passed for 256 yards and rushed for an additional 47 yards on six scrambles.  Plenty of skeptics expected more than one INT in 38 pass attempts, but he did a decent job avoiding the mistakes that plagued […]

Ronnie Hillman (RB, DEN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stash (All Leagues) ANALYSIS: Hillman is entering his 2nd season in the NFL. A scat back from San Diego State, Hillman was a third round pick and as a rookie made little impact on a Bronco team that still had Moreno and McGahee. He racked up 330 yards on 85 carries, third best on […]

Knowshon Moreno - (RB, DEN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stash (All Leagues) ANALYSIS: Moreno is entering his 5th season in the NFL and has never really flourished as a feature back since being taken 12th overall in the 2009 draft. 2012 was an injury plagued season for the speedy back who saw limited action in only 8 games, while increased emphasis was […]

Patriots (Defense, NE) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add Immediately (All Leagues) ANALYSIS: This coming week the Patriots have the Jets, and I really don’t need to say much more than that. The Jets are a mess again this year and will start Geno Smith at QB who will make a mistake in the game which the defense will feast on. […]

Cowboys (Defense, DAL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add Immediately (All Leagues) ANALYSIS: Last year, the Cowboys made a surprise decision to fire their defensive coordinator, Rob Ryan, after one season. To replace Ryan, they hired Monte Kiffin and immediately showed what he brings to the table. In the first game of the season against the division-rival Giants, the Cowboys had […]

Kenny Stills (WR, NO) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues (12+ teams & Standard) & Continue Scouting (10 teams or fewer) ANALYSIS: Kenny Stills, a rookie from Oklahoma, had a decent first game as a professional: two catches for 86 yds. Stills flashed his potential in the high-powered Saints offense with a 67-yard play. In previous years under Sean […]

Marlon Brown (WR, BAL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Standard Leagues (10+ teams Standard) ANALYSIS: The Ravens’ offense is missing many of the offensive playmakers that helped them win the Super Bowl last year. With Boldin traded and Pitta on the IR, the Ravens lost another key offensive player in Jacoby Jones with an MCL sprain that will take him […]

Julian Edelman (WR, NE) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add Immediately (8+ teams PPR & Standard) ANALYSIS: Last year, New England frustrated fantasy owners by starting Julian Edelman over Wes Welker for the first few weeks of the season. Unfortunately for Edelman, a hand injury brought the opportunity for Welker to return back to the starting lineup. Now in 2013, Edelman again […]

Jerome Simpson (WR, MIN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Continue Scouting ANALYSIS: Vikings wideout Jerome Simpson had a great game this past weekend with seven catches for 140 yards. Yes I know what you're thinking, if he could do that each week then he'd be...well, he'd be a top 5 receiver in the NFL, ha!  The reality is Christian Ponder is the QB for the […]
