Nick Ahmed Placed On Injured List With Shoulder Inflammation

The Arizona Diamondbacks placed shortstop Nick Ahmed (shoulder) on the 10-day injured list on Sunday. The 31-year-old veteran had been sidelined for about a week before the move to the injured list. The team originally said he was dealing with right shoulder soreness, but he was placed on the injured list with left shoulder inflammation. […]

Kendrick Bourne (WR, NE) - Fantasy Football Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 0% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Flier WW target of the week, this one. Bourne, he of the zero-percent rostership made the cut after coming absolutely out of the left field for the Patriots on Sunday racking up 21.6 PPR points in his best game of the baby […]

Tyler Conklin (TE, MIN) - Fantasy Football Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 4% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The Vikings lost starting-TE Irv Smith prior to Week 1 and Minny has been forced to play their reserves for three games and  going. The main beneficiary: Tyler Conklin, who has led the position for the team in all three games and […]

Tim Patrick (WR, DEN) - Fantasy Football Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 22% of Leagues ANALYSIS: How is it possible that Tim Patrick is still rostered in only one-fifth of Yahoo leagues!? It's been two weeks since Jerry Jeudy went to the shelf, and Patrick has put up three consecutive games of 12+ PPR points finishing in the […]

Hunter Renfrow (WR, LV) - Fantasy Football Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 11% of Leagues ANALYSIS: While other players have gotten the headlines coming from Las Vegas' games so far this season (Darren Waller's 19 targets in W1, Henry Ruggs III waking up for good in W2) the truth is that Hunter Renfrow has been a low-key […]

Mecole Hardman (WR, KC) - Fantasy Football Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 51% of Leagues ANALYSIS: We're breaking the 50%-rostership-at-most rule, but this could turn into a league-winning WW target so it makes sense to cover Mecole Hardman. As I have said in other past WW columns I have writing about Kansas City's players, it's a little bit […]

Evan Engram (TE, NYG) - Fantasy Football Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 40% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It took Evan Engram three weeks to make his season debut but it finally took place on Sunday with the Giants facing the Falcons. The truth? Engram pretty much stank; can't argue about that. But that's not what is of interest here. […]

A.J. Green (WR, ARI) - Fantasy Football Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 15% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Quite a leap of faith the one you'll need to take by rostering Green, folks. A.J. Green is coming off a horrid season--the worst of his career--in which all he could do was averaging 7 FPPG in PPR leagues with 111.3 total […]

Emmanuel Sanders (WR, BUF) - Fantasy Football Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 25% of Leagues ANALYSIS: While it is a little bit surprising to find a player of Emmanuel Sanders caliber available in 75% of fantasy league, the truth is that those thoughts are more linked to his past than his present. Sanders finished four of the six […]

Teddy Bridgewater (QB, DEN) - Fantasy Football Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ teams Leagues OWNED IN: 28% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The Broncos come off a demolition derby against the Jets, so it makes sense to find Teddy Bridgewater as just the 24th-best quarterback of Week 3's slate of games (pending MNF) as Denver ran New York off the field to a 26-0 […]

Jacoby Brissett (QB, MIA) - Fantasy Football Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ teams/2QB Leagues OWNED IN: 2% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The last time we saw Tua Tagovailoa grace a football field, back in Week 2, all he could do was completing one of his four passing attempts for 13 yards. He was forced out of the green after that, making way for […]

Jameis Winston (QB, NO) - Fantasy Football Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 2QB Leagues OWNED IN: 46% of Leagues ANALYSIS: For someone with Jameis Winston's production this season, the truth is that the near-50% rostership will end falling sooner rather than later. That doesn't mean Winston should be thrown straight out of every fantasy-squad window, though. Winston is producing low numbers but his […]

Daniel Jones (QB, NYG) - Fantasy Football Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ teams Leagues OWNED IN: 45% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Daniel Jones has been all around the board to kick the year off. He debuted to the tune of a QB14 finish, proceeded to play to the QB4 levels in Week 2, and lastly this Sunday he closed the game against the […]

Taylor Heinicke (QB, WAS) - Fantasy Football Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ teams/2QB Leagues OWNED IN: 6% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Second week of the Taylor Heinicke era in Washington, and second game in which the forced-started passed the test rather nicely. I don't think anyone in the world is happy with Ryan Fitzpatrick missing time as he brings the fireworks weekly, but […]

Chuba Hubbard (RB, CAR) - Fantasy Football Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 22% of Leagues ANALYSIS: This is far from your under-the-radar WW option. In fact, not many players with such a low usage and volume of opportunity are as rostered as Chuba Hubbard was prior to the last TNF. That's what happens when you're Christian McCaffrey's backup, […]

Terrace Marshall Jr. (WR, CAR) - Fantasy Football Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 15% of Leagues ANALYSIS: This is more of a bet than a solid addition at this point, but we might be getting there slowly but surely. Nobody is going to label Terrace Marshall Jr. as more than a low-end receiver playing a secondary role for the […]

Sam Darnold (QB, CAR) - Fantasy Football Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ teams/2QB Leagues OWNED IN: 21% of Leagues ANALYSIS: As ridiculous as it sounds, Sam Darnold has been around for three full seasons already and is now throwing rocks for the fourth season in his NFL career. He's doing so in Carolina, which traded for him this offseason to grab him […]

MNF NFL DFS Lineup Picks for FanDuel, DraftKings - Eagles vs Cowboys Showdown

I look to keep that momentum rolling tonight, but this one is […]

Tyler Mahle Earns 13th Win On Sunday

Cincinnati Reds right-hander Tyler Mahle was excellent in a Sunday start against the Washington Nationals. Mahle allowed just one unearned run over six innings while striking out six and walking two. The veteran hurler picked up the win, improving his record to 13-6, to go along with a 3.54 ERA, 1.21 WHIP, and 204 strikeouts […]

Tyler Stephenson Hits 10th Homer

Cincinnati Reds catcher Tyler Stephenson had a big afternoon in a 9-2 win over the Washington Nationals on Sunday. Stephenson went 3-for-5 with a double, a homer, two runs, and three RBI in the win. The rookie catcher hit a two-run homer in the fifth inning and added a sacrifice fly in the eighth. Stephenson […]

Elijah Moore Exits Early In Week 3 Loss

New York Jets rookie wide receiver Elijah Moore (concussion) was expected to be heavily involved in the passing game against the Denver Broncos in Week 3. He hauled in three receptions on six targets for 22 yards before exiting the game due to a concussion. This is a week-to-week type of injury. There is a decent […]

Corey Davis Targeted 10 Times

New York Jets wide receiver Corey Davis is one of the few players producing decent fantasy value for this team right now. Davis posted a dud in Week 2, but bounced back against the Denver Broncos. He hauled in five of his 10 targets for 41 yards in the shutout loss. It was a better […]

Ty Johnson Barely Involved In Loss To Denver

New York Jets running back Ty Johnson was expected to have a bigger workload with Tevin Coleman (illness) ruled out for Week 3. That being said, Johnson and rookie Michael Carter were asked to lead this backfield. Well, it's the Jets, so things weren't disastrously bad for them. Johnson rushed three times for 17 yards […]

Michael Carter Disappointing In First Career Start

New York Jets running back Michael Carter received his first career NFL start against the Denver Broncos in Week 3. The promising rookie back was unable to find much room to run in this one. He rushed nine times for 24 yards in what ended up being a shutout loss for the Jets. Both quarterback […]

Zach Wilson Posts Brutal Performance In Week 3

New York Jets quarterback Zach Wilson had a promising NFL debut, but he has been awful since then. In Week 3, Wilson completed 19 of 35 passing attempts for 160 yards with zero touchdowns and two interceptions in the loss to the Denver Broncos. It was partly Wilson's fault, but the offensive line didn't give […]

Dawson Knox Scores Once Again

Buffalo Bills tight end Dawson Knox has been a tough fantasy player to predict on a weekly basis. He is technically the TE1 in Buffalo, but that doesn't mean a lot considering the wide receivers they have on the roster. Despite that, Knox has been able to put together decent performances through the first few […]

Emmanuel Sanders Posts Two-TD Performance

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders has been a solid addition to this offensive unit. He didn't find the end zone through the first two games, but that quickly changed against the Washington Football Team in Week 3. The veteran wideout hauled in five of his six targets for 94 yards and two touchdowns in […]
