Mike Gesicki Finishes With 22 Yards

Miami Dolphins tight end Mike Gesicki has been an inconsistent fantasy option lately. That trend continued versus the New Orleans Saints in Week 16. Gesicki hauled in three of his four targets for 22 yards in the win. He finished second on the team in targets, but that doesn't mean too much considering the Dolphins […]

Jaylen Waddle Snags 10 Receptions

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle put together an epic performance against the New Orleans Saints on Monday night.

Myles Gaskin Posts Dud Against Saints

Phillip Lindsay Gets Back In Action

Miami Dolphins running back Phillip Lindsay made his first appearance on the field since Week 12.

The Dolphins used a three-back committee, which limited […]

Duke Johnson Remains Involved In Week 16

Miami Dolphins running back Duke Johnson was coming off a career game last week and failed to carry that momentum into this week. He rushed 13 times for 39 yards in the Week 16 victory over the New Orleans Saints. The Dolphins decided to use a three-back committee, so there wasn't a ton of value […]

Tua Tagovailoa Does Enough To Beat Saints

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa wasn't exactly sharp during the Monday night matchup against the New Orleans Saints. However, he was able to get the job done against a team with 16 players on the COVID list and another 10 on injured reserve. Tagovailoa completed 19-of-26 passing attempts for 198 passing yards with one touchdown […]

Rex Burkhead (RB, HOU) - Fantasy Football Week 17 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues ROSTERED IN: 13% of Leagues ANALYSIS: If something is clear in Houston, that is Rex Burkhead's role becoming more prominent each of the few past weeks: the rusher has gone from playing 24 snaps to log 35, 38, and lastly 42 in consecutive weeks from W13 through last Sunday.

Josh Palmer (WR, LAC) - Fantasy Football Week 17 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 5% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Rookie WR Josh Palmer, truth be told, wasn't much more than an afterthought prior to his Week 14 explosion. The Charged picked Palmer with a third-round selection, but only used in 197 snaps prior to that aforementioned W14 game. That means he […]

K.J. Osborn (WR, MIN) - Fantasy Football Week 17 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED IN: 34% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The Vikings are a three-man offense built around the very talented Dalvin Cook, Adam Thielen, and Justin Jefferson.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 1% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The Buffalo Bills faced New England this weekend without any of their WR2 and WR3 guys available.

Davis Mills (QB, HOU) - Fantasy Football Week 17 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 2QB Leagues ROSTERED IN: 3% of Leagues ANALYSIS: One thing has been made clear throughout the season: no quarterback from the 2021 class has played to any substantially good levels in their freshman campaign. It looked like the Patriots might have stolen the best passer of them all, but at the […]

Carson Wentz (QB, IND) - Fantasy Football Week 17 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 2QB Leagues ROSTERED IN: 48% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Can't argue about Wentz's downtick in production during the second half of the season. It is what it is, but it is also what has him available in more than half of Yahoo leagues and as a viable option sitting on the WW […]
