Lou Williams (PG/SG, LAC) - Fantasy Basketball Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around 108 Overall CURRENT ADP: 134 ANALYSIS: We know what Lou Williams is: a role, off-the-pine player. Okay, now that we have covered all of Lou's negatives we can start focusing on the positives. Lou, even though starting just eight of 65 games last season, still played 28.7 mpg for a combined […]

Julius Randle (PF/C, NY) - Fantasy Basketball Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around 65 Overall CURRENT ADP: 88 ANALYSIS: I was one of the fantasy GMs with plenty of Julius Randle shares last season. I can't complain, but I must also say that Randle was frustrating at times, even more on DFS contests than in re-draft leagues. Why? Because of consistency issues, and a […]

Spencer Dinwiddie (PG/SG, BKN) - Fantasy Basketball Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around 80 Overall CURRENT ADP: 132 ANALYSIS: The Nets are poised for a big turnaround this season after putting together a completely revamped roster last season. Too bad for them, Durant couldn't step onto the court once, and Kyrie Irving has forced out just 20 games into the season. That made Dinwiddie […]

Second-Year NBA Players Who Won't Break Out

Every NBA player enters the league with high hopes, but not every player ends up fulfilling those hopes. Year two is an important one when it comes to player development. If someone's going to sustain a long NBA career, they have to start showing something in that second season or it becomes an even more […]

Deeper League Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 14

The fantasy playoffs may be starting for many leagues, which means now is the time to get your team prepared for a hopeful deep playoff run. Many players could still end up on the COVID list, while others are nursing injuries, so depth is especially important. At this point, the deepest parts of the waiver […]

Week 13 Outliers Analysis - We Must Overreact!

Week 13 was pretty random as far as quarterbacks went, with Derek Carr, Baker Mayfield, Ryan Tannehill, Matthew Stafford and Jared Goff finishing in the top-six. Patrick Mahomes only scored 19.32 fantasy points but his day could have been much bigger had Tyreek Hill's touchdown been properly called by the officials and counted. Darren Waller […]

Top 250 Dynasty Prospects for 2021

The 2020 baseball season was unlike any year we’ve ever seen with its shortened season and schedule that can perhaps be best described as organized chaos. The absence of a minor league season played havoc with prospect prognosticators. The 2021 season — and perhaps beyond — will continue to present unique challenges as the pandemic […]

NBA Fantasy Basketball Draft Busts: Centers

Today, let's talk about some potential busts at the center position. For whatever reason -- be it talent, lack of opportunity, or some combination of those two things -- […]

Biggest Risers of 2020 – Relief Pitchers

In 2020, we saw a large number of relief pitchers, previously not in the upper tier of fantasy rankings, breakout or bounce back from 2019 decrepitude. Below we will take a look at a few of the biggest relief pitcher risers of the 2020 season as we gear up for 2021 drafts in the spring. […]

Top 50 Fantasy Baseball Redraft Prospects for 2021

The abbreviated, wild-ride known as the 2020 MLB season has come to an end and the playoffs are in full swing. Sadly, that means fantasy baseball seasons are finished. And prospects watchers have turned their attention towards the 2021 season. The 2020 season saw a significant number of key contributions from rookies and, had you […]

49ers Defense Hammered By Bills

The 49ers Defense couldn't contain Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills in Week 13. The Bills put 34 points up on the board while Allen threw for 375 yards and four touchdowns. The 49ers managed just one sack on Allen. They came away with a fumble recovery, but weren't able to do much else. It […]

Jordan Reed Catches Touchdown In Week 13

San Francisco 49ers tight end Jordan Reed caught three of his four targets for 32 yards and a touchdown in Week 13 against the Buffalo Bills. It was his third touchdown of the year and first since Week 2, when both of his other touchdown catches were made. While Reed led all 49ers tight ends […]

Kendrick Bourne Catches Four Passes In Week 13

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Kendrick Bourne had a small but notable role, as usual, in the offense in Week 13 against the Buffalo Bills. Bourne caught four of his six targets for 35 yards, a performance very reminiscent of his Week 12 outing when he caught three passes for 34 yards. Bourne was third […]

Deebo Samuel Catches Six Passes For 73 Yards

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel caught six of his nine targets for 73 yards in Week 13 against the Buffalo Bills. His six receptions were a team high and he tied for the team lead in targets with Brandon Aiyuk. Samuel had a breakout game in Week 12, when he caught 11 passes […]

Brandon Aiyuk Leads 49ers In Receiving Against Bills

San Francisco 49ers rookie receiver Brandon Aiyuk caught five of his nine targets for a team-high 95 yards and a touchdown in Week 13 against the Buffalo Bills. Aiyuk and Deebo Samuel each had nine targets to lead the 49ers while no other 49ers pass catcher had more than six. Quarterback Nick Mullens aired the […]

Jeff Wilson Jr. Leads 49ers In Rushing In Week 13

San Francisco 49ers running back Jeff Wilson Jr. was the team's most effective rusher in Week 13 against the Buffalo Bills. Wilson carried the ball seven times for 47 yards, good for 6.7 yards per carry. He out-performed the team's lead back, Raheem Mostert, who had nine carries for 42 yards. Wilson also saw five […]

Raheem Mostert Rushes For Just 42 Yards In Week 13

San Francisco 49ers running back Raheem Mostert only saw nine carries in the team's Week 13 loss to the Buffalo Bills. He performed adequately with the workload, gaining 42 yards, which was good for 4.7 yards per carry. However, Jeff Wilson Jr. received a nearly equal workload and out-performed Mostert, carrying the ball seven times […]

Nick Mullens Throws Three Touchdown Passes In Week 13

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Nick Mullens delivered a solid fantasy performance in Week 13 against the Buffalo Bills. He completed 26 of 39 passes for 316 yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions. It was just his second 300-yard game of the season and his 39 passing attempts were a season high.

Tuesday Night Football DFS Lineup Picks for FanDuel, DraftKings

Tuesday Night Football, really? Just when you thought we'd seen it all in 2020, we have yet another first.

[…]

Tyler Higbee (TE, LAR) - Week 14 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 48% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It's been a while since the last time we saw Tyler Higbee finish a game scoring double-digit fantasy points, but it finally happened this past Sunday when he finished with 12.4 PPR points against the Cardinals. We were all licking our chops back […]

Logan Thomas (TE, WAS) - Week 14 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues ROSTERED: 40% of Leagues ANALYSIS: We know that the tight end position is pretty much a one-man wrecking crew (Travis Kelce) and that outside of that very concrete player, it's all a random weekly affair. Perhaps Darren Waller and T.J. Hockenson can be included in that top-tier level, but […]

Adrian Peterson (RB, DET) - Week 14 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 48% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Although the Lions were expecting rookie D'Andre Swift to be back this past weekend, he couldn't make it to the field (concussion) and missed his third consecutive game. That meant, of course, payday for veteran Adrian Peterson, as it's been the case now […]

Browns Claim Marvin Hall Off Waivers

The Cleveland Browns claimed wide receiver Marvin Hall off waivers from the Lions on Monday. Hall was cut by Detroit over the weekend and has found a new home quickly. The 27-year-old from Washington saw increased action with Kenny Golladay (hip) injured this year, posting career-highs in catches (17), targets (30), receiving yards (290) and […]

Darrynton Evans Back From Injured Reserve

The Tennessee Titans activated rookie running back Darrynton Evans (hamstring) from Injured Reserve on Monday and also activated offensive tackle Isaiah Wilson from the suspended list. The NFL's leading rusher resides on the Titans in Derrick Henry, so Evans has seen very little work in his first season in the league. The 22-year-old third-round pick […]

Cowboys Put Zack Martin On Injured Reserve

The Dallas Cowboys placed offensive guard Zack Martin (calf) on Injured Reserve on Monday. Martin suffered his calf injury in the Thanksgiving loss to the Washington Football Team and will now have to miss the next three games, putting his availability in question for the rest of the season. It's more bad news for running […]

Joe Haden Injured Monday

Pittsburgh Steelers cornerback Joe Haden (concussion) left late in the Monday night loss to the Washington Football Team and did not return to the game. Haden will need to be cleared from the league's concussion protocol this week in order to play on Sunday night in Week 14 against the Bills. The 31-year-old veteran is […]

Broncos Defense Slows Down The Chiefs In Week 13

The Denver Broncos Defense looked really impressive in the Week 13 Sunday night loss to the division-rival Chiefs and their exciting and high-scoring offense. In their first meeting in Week 7, Denver allowed 40-plus points in the snow, so this was certainly an improvement against the defending Super Bowl champions. It was even more impressive […]

Jamahal Hill Impresses Saturday's Co-Main Event

Jamahal Hill scored an impressive second-round stoppage against UFC veteran Ovince St. Preux on Saturday, keeping his impressive undefeated record. Hill kept his cool in a very close first round. After unleashing in the second round, Hill eventually pressured St. Preux, leading the referee to call the stoppage. Statistically, Hill tallied 68 significant strikes, with […]
