NFL Survivor League Picks – Targets & Avoids (Week 8)
We are almost halfway through the football season. Where'd the time go!? Now though, is where the fun begins. Teams begin separating themselves from the pack as they look to make a playoff push. The Bills, Eagles, Jaguars, and Washington are all on bye. For those of you unfamiliar with survivor pools it’s very simple; […]

Week 8 Deeper Sleepers: Replacing Arian Foster
Welcome to our season-long segment at RotoBaller where we will be targeting players owned in 25% or less of Fleaflicker leagues. To describe last week's picks in one word... meh. Sure, we hit on Stefon Diggs, but that felt more like a "no duh" pick given how good he looked his first two games. The only […]

Zac Stacy (RB, NYJ) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Handcuff to Chris Ivory in deeper leagues OWNED IN: 9% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Look, we all know what the most valuable fantasy asset is for any running back - opportunity. So news of starter Chris Ivory's hamstring flareup in Sunday's 30-23 loss to the New England Patriots immediately put backup Zac Stacy on […]

FAAB Auction Bidding - Week 8 NFL Waiver Wire Targets
Week 7 was relatively quiet outside of Arian Foster being lost for the year, and even his replacements aren't really enticing. This week seems to be more about reminders from players who have played well before, but may be available due to their own bye weeks or coming back from an injury. Buffalo, Jacksonville, Philadelphia, and […]

Week 8 Waiver Wire Overview: Darren McFadden, Stefon Diggs, Orleans Darkwa & More
Waiver Wire Adds for Week Eight The seventh Sunday of the season is through, and the wackiness continues. Miami finally began playing like the uber-talented team they were projected to be, while the Bills continued to struggle in London. And there's still another big matchup on tonight's Monday Night slate. Week 7 saw a gruesome season ending injury […]

Week 7 NFL Recap: Injuries, Breakout Performers & Game by Game Analysis
The most common text I sent this Sunday was “this is by far the ugliest week of football of the year” and I don’t think that’s even up for debate right now. From top to bottom, from Thursday night to Sunday night, nearly every game had some serious flaws. In a weird sort of way, […]

Go to the Dark Side with Orleans Darkwa
BALLER MOVE: Add in Very Deep Leagues OWNED IN: 1% Owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: I was really interested in Darkwa entering this season, listing him constantly in my version of the running back depth charts as a player to watch. Last year he saw limited action but in his one game where he got some […]

Alfred Blue the Cure to Your Foster Blues
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 48% Owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Arian Foster's 2015 is unfortunately over much earlier than anticipated, and that makes Blue the next man up. Blue was decently ineffective his first time around as the starter, but the offense has changed since then and being optimistic about his potential […]

Get Tricky and Pick Up Run DMC
BALLER MOVE: Add in all Leagues OWNED IN: 55% Owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: With Joseph Randle suffering a lower back injury, it was Darren McFadden who stepped in instead of Christine Michael. Although I still want to own the lottery ticket, if you're in a league where McFadden is on the waivers, he's a lottery […]

Week 7 Running Back Depth Charts for Fantasy Football
Week 6 was odd. There's no other way to put it.

On the contrary, Every back in the AFC West, which has purported impressive RB play […]

The waiver wire isn't the only place to change the course of your team. The right trade can make or break your season.

Week 7 Fantasy Football Risers, Fallers and Trade Candidates
Through six weeks of the NFL season, no player has risen faster than Devonta Freeman, the clear breakout star of the fantasy season.

Thursday Night NFL Matchups Analysis: Week 7 Start/Sit for Fantasy Football
The Seattle Seahawks defense has allowed game-winning drives in the closing moments of back-to-back games against the Cincinnati Bengals and Carolina Panthers. Staring at a 2-4 record and an early matchup with division rival San Francisco 49ers, the quest to appear in three straight Super Bowls is looking shaky. Aside from their real-life scenario, there's also the […]
