Brandon Bolden, New England Patriots

Baller Move:  Add in Deep PPR Leagues Analysis: The Patriots continue to utilize Bolden as an important running back in their offense, leaning on him in hurry-up situations and third-downs. Bolden’s strength is his hands, and the ability to catch passes out of the backfield.  And the Patriots have been using a lot of formations recently […]

Daniel Thomas, Miami Dolphins

Baller Move: Stash in Deep Leagues Analysis: Miami came out of their week six bye, and somewhat surprisingly decided that Thomas was going to be an important part of their weekly game plan going forward.  Many thought that Lamar Millerwould emerge as the clear-cut running back for the Dolphins, after the coaches made their bye week assessments.  But […]

Mike Tolbert, Carolina Panthers

Baller Move:  Add in Deep Leagues Analysis:  Tolbert is going to get some love again in week nine’s waiver wire, as he just keeps producing as the third-down running back for the Panthers.  In PPR leagues, Tolbert put up a solid 16.40 points last week.  He also racked up 9.60 points in week 7 and […]

Andre Ellington, Arizona Cardinals

Baller Move:  Add in All Leagues Immediately Analysis:  As the season progresses, Ellington’s running back role continues to grow within the Arizona offense.  Rashard Mendenhall continues to slip into fantasy football irrelevance, as he continues to be ineffective.  Ellington on the other hand is a young, fast, shifty, dynamic running back who can make plays.  On […]

Bryce Brown, Philadelphia Eagles

Baller Move: Stash in most formats Analysis: I have written up Bryce Brown a few times already this year, but in a slow week for RB waiver options, I felt Brown deserved reiteration. LeSean “Shady” McCoy is a phenomenal talent, but it is no secret he is susceptible to injury. While the Philadelphia offense is struggling with […]

James Starks, Green Bay Packers

Baller Move: Stash in deeper leagues Analysis: Starks is back from injury and had the opportunity to play backup to Eddie Lacy on Sunday night. He turned in solid production on his seven carries, notching 57 yards and a touchdown on a nice 25-yard dash through the middle. Starks is a very talented runner who several teams would kill to […]

Andre Brown, New York Giants

Baller Move: Stash in all leagues. Analysis: The long wait is almost over. Andre Brown will be eligible to start in Week 10. Still available in about 80% of leagues, the time is now to claim Brown off of waivers if you can. He is the lined up to be the starting RB in New York moving […]

Montee Ball, Denver Broncos

Baller Move: Stash in deeper leagues Analysis: Ronnie Hillman‘s late goal-line fumble last week against the Colts could have been both his undoing and Ball’s big chance. Montee Ball owners who were patient are now finally seeing some light at the end of the tunnel for Ball’s chances of contributing this year. Considering that Ball is now […]

Reshad Jones (IDP - S, MIA) - Waiver Wire Pickup

Baller Move: Add in Standard Leagues (12+ teams IDP Leagues) Analysis: On the season Reshad Jones has 36 tackles (six per game), 1.5 sacks and one pick, which makes him a fairly decent option to consider if you are in looking for an IDP Safety option.  This past week, he had his best game on the season: nine […]

CAROLINA (CAR), DEF – Waiver Wire Pickup

Baller Move: Add in Standard Leagues (12+ teams) Analysis: Coming off a great game versus the St. Louis Rams (four sacks, one INT, two fumble recoveries and one TD), they will be facing a Tampa Bay team who will not have Doug Martin.  I expect solid production for the Panthers defense as they feast upon the second-worst offense […]
