Josh McCown, Chicago Bears

Baller Move: Add in Deep Leagues Analysis: Jay Cutler is down again with a bad ankle, and McCown will get the starting nod in Week 11 against the Baltimore Ravens. The matchup against the Ravens is a mixed bag since their defense is coming off a 3 INT game in Cincinnati, but are still 23rd in the NFL with […]

Case Keenum, Houston Texans

Baller Move: Add in All Leagues Analysis: Case Keenum’s waiver wire star remains bright following a week of mediocre games by other waiver wire QBs.  If you’re looking for a quarterback to add to your fantasy team, do you really want to roll the dice with EJ Manuel or Geno Smith when you can pickup Keenum?  Keenum has […]

Antrel Rolle, New York Giants (IDP – S)

BALLER MOVE: Add in Standard Leagues (12+ teams IDP Leagues) ANALYSIS: For the past four games, Antrel Rolle has had 31 total tackles, two sacks and two interceptions (averaging around eight tackles a game).  This past week, Rolle had his best game of the season with 10 solo tackles and a sack.  The two sacks on the […]

Detroit, DEF

BALLER MOVE: Add in Standard Leagues (12+ teams) ANALYSIS:  Detroit will be playing a Pittsburgh Steeler offense which has given up the fifth-most points to opposing defenses.  Pittsburgh has struggled this season with turnovers and has a -11 turnover ratio.  While Pittsburgh has the potential to score points, I like Detroit’s chances to have at […]

Green Bay, DEF

BALLER MOVE: Add in Standard Leagues (12+ teams) ANALYSIS:  For this coming week, Green Bay will be playing a NY Giants team that has given up the third-most points on the season to opposing defenses.  Overall, the Giants have a -13 turnover ratio on the season and I expect that will not improve this coming […]

Cordarrelle Patterson, Minnesota Vikings

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues only (12+ teams Standard, PPR) ANALYSIS: In Week 1 of this season, I mentioned that Patterson was going to be the new Percy Harvin on the Vikings.  So far, he hasn’t lived up to that, and Jerome Simpson has started longer than I anticipated.  But this week Simpson was arrested with a DWI.  […]

Leonard Hankerson, Arizona Cardinals

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues only (12+ teams PPR) ANALYSIS: For the past two weeks, Hankerson has had five catches per week and 116 yards.  While these aren’t mind-blowing numbers, they are decent WR numbers in a PPR league.  I am a bit concerned about his viability for long-term success, and I would only […]

Mike Brown, Jacksonville Jaguars

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues only (12+ teams Standard, PPR) ANALYSIS:  Last week, I mentioned that Justin Blackmon was suspended for the season.  Due to this suspension, the ‘next man up’ is Mike Brown.  While Brown did not have an opportunity to shine this week (the Jaguars were up the whole game, so they ran the clock […]

Dennis Johnson - RB, Houston Texans - Waiver Wire Pickup

With Arian Foster not practicing this week due to hamstring and back issues and Ben Tate facing four broken ribs, things are looking bleak for the running backs in Houston. Third-string option Dennis Johnson might well end up playing simply because there is nobody else. He played most of the second half in Week 9, and while Ben Tate has indicated he will […]

Garrett Graham – TE, Houston Texans – Waiver Wire Analysis

Baller Move:  Add in All PPR Leagues Analysis: In the 2 weeks that rookie quarterback Case Keenum has been under center, Houston’s tight end Graham has seen a slight bump in his passing targets.  In week 9 he saw 6 targets, and in the previous game he saw 8 targets.  This is a nice development, and hopefully a sign […]

Chris Ogbonnaya – RB, Cleveland Browns - Waiver Wire Pickup

Baller Move:  Stash in PPR Leagues, Deeper Standard Leagues Analysis: There are a few things we know about the Cleveland Browns in 2013.  Their team is much improved, sitting at 4-5, after bringing in a new head coach and offensive scheme.  They didn’t love what they saw in Trent Richardson, and decided to trade their starting RB to […]

Montee Ball – RB, Denver Broncos - Waiver Wire Pickup

Baller Move:  Stash in Deeper Leagues, Monitor in All Leagues Analysis: Ball has clearly emerged as the #2 running back for the Broncos after Knowshon Moreno, asRonnie Hillman wasn’t even active in their last game.  The Broncos have already said that they want to lighten the workload for their lead running back Moreno over the next few weeks, […]

Andrew Quarless – TE, Green Bay Packers – Waiver Wire Analysis

Baller Move:  Stash in Deeper PPR Leagues Analysis: Since Jermichael Finley went down with his injury, Quarless has been the only relevant tight end in Green Bay.  While his numbers haven’t been great, he did see a big increase in targets and receptions last week after Aaron Rodgers left the game with an injury. Seneca Wallace was then under center for the Packers, […]

Waiver Wire Sleepers for Week 10

Below, I will highlight some fantasy football waiver wire sleepers for Week 10 of the NFL season.  In most fantasy football leagues, waivers run on Tuesday nights.  But there’s still plenty of time to make waiver wire pickups, and as injury reports get released throughout the week new players should be targeted off your fantasy football waiver […]

Tim Wright - TE, Tampa Bay Buccaneers

After a silent start to the year, Wright has been climbing the ladder to fantasy relevance week by week. After Week 6, when he reached 91 yards, he’s become more impressive with each game. He’s reached the end zone each of the past two weeks and has become one of Mike Glennon‘s favorite receivers. Wright used […]

EJ Manuel - QB, Buffalo Bills

After the first few weeks of football, I could hardly have referred to Manuel as a “sleeper” but that all changed after he sprained his LCL on October 3rd. He is set to return to the field this weekend, and he could turn out to be a very solid sleeper surprise for those willing to […]

Week 10 Fantasy Football Rookie Sleepers - RB, TE, QB

NFL Running Backs (RBs) - Week 10 Fantasy Football Updates

We are past midseason and we have seen just about everything to be seen from the running back position. The Washington backup RBs, Darrel Young and Roy Helu, have combined for six touchdowns over the past four weeks. And Eddie Lacy is doing what he is expected to do in carrying the running game for […]

Denard Robinson – RB, Jacksonville Jaguars - Waive Wire Analysis

Baller Move:  Continue Monitoring in All Leagues Analysis: Earlier this week the Jaguars stated that Robinson would be their #2 running back going forward, over both Justin Forsett and Jordan Todman.  At this point of the season, the Jaguars need to be looking towards the future, and the very realistic probability that Maurice Jones-Drew will not be with the team next year […]
