Week 13 Kicker Streamers and Starts – 2021 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

There is always a player at every position who seems to come out of nowhere. Last year, it was James Robinson at running back and Logan Thomas at tight end. This happens every year, like clockwork.

Minnesota Vikings running back Alexander Mattison will get a "heavy workload" on Sunday against Detroit, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

Kansas City Chiefs running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire (illness) is anticipated to see a full workload versus Denver on Sunday, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

Our Sunday slate on DraftKings is a little smaller today with only three games. A look at the positions on DraftKings see a lot of OUT tags, the most glaring being LaMelo Ball. It opens up a ton of value, but how much do we actually need? We start off with the Ball-less Hornets in […]

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver DeSean Jackson (groin) is expected to suit up against Washington on Sunday afternoon, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.

David Johnson Unlikely To Play In Week 13

Houston Texans running back David Johnson (thigh, illness) is not expected to play against the Colts on Sunday, reports Adam Schefter of ESPN.

Danny Amendola Lands On Injured Reserve

Houston Texans wide receiver Danny Amendola (knee) has been placed on Injured Reserve after undergoing arthroscopic knee surgery this past week. The 36-year-old is expected to miss four to six weeks. Through seven games this season, he caught 17 passes for 135 yards and one touchdown. He's not on the fantasy radar whatsoever.

James Robinson Trying To Play On Sunday

Jacksonville Jaguars running back James Robinson (heel, knee) plans to try to play against the Rams on Sunday.

Kyler Murray Expected To Play On Sunday

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (ankle) is expected to start against the Bears on Sunday, reports Adam Schefter of ESPN. He had been listed as questionable.

DeAndre Hopkins Likely To Play Sunday, Could Be Used Sparingly

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins (hamstring) is likely to play in Week 13 but could be used sparingly due to his injury and concerns about the weather conditions, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 49% of leagues ANALYSIS:  The Sixers are healthy once for all. All of Embiid, Tobi, Danny Green, and the very own Matisse Thybulle are back playing after bouts with COVID and whatnot.

Patty Mills (PG/SG, BKN): Week 8 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues ROSTERED IN: 48% of leagues ANALYSIS:  I have built a list of 25 players to potentially write about as WW targets this week, as I do every Saturday. Only one player in that list is recommended as an addition for fantasy GMs doing it in whatever the league is. That's correct. […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 38% of leagues ANALYSIS:  Can somebody please tell me how Kevin Huerter aka the Red Mamba aka White Sniper is rostered just in a little bit more than one of every Yahoo fantasy leagues!? I get it. Kev is logging low usage rates, plays in a […]

Herb Jones (SF, NOP): Week 8 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 10% of leagues ANALYSIS:  The Pelicans stink. There is no way to sugarcoat that reality. Zion Williams remains out and all the Pels have to make up for that absence is a middling Brandon Ingram and some explosions from Jonas Valanciunas here and there. Oh, and […]

Otto Porter Jr. (SF/PF, GSW): Week 8 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 41% of leagues ANALYSIS:  At this point in the regular season and I don't think it makes much sense to keep doubting the Warriors.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 15% of leagues ANALYSIS:  As much as haters would love to see LeBron James and the Lakers miss on making the playoffs, I'm afraid they'll have to eat an L on that front when all is said and done. It's not that the Lake Show is […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 30% of leagues ANALYSIS:  The Knicks have finally taken the step and labeled Kemba Walker as a Certified Cooked-man. Cold world.

Jarred Vanderbilt (PF/C, MIN): Week 8 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 56% of leagues ANALYSIS:  There is no point in arguing that Jarred Vanderbilt is the bonafide starting PF of the 2022 Minnesota Timberwolves. With a healthy rotation available, he's kept hold of the starting nod and that has been the case for all last 12 games […]
