BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 6% of Leagues ANALYSIS: As great a thing as it'd be to have more than one (Travis Kelce) reliable tight end to play weekly in our fantasy leagues, that's not the truth. This is Kelce's world, and we just live in it. Other than the Chiefs stud, […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 37% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Don't look now, but are we experiencing a veteran-WR renaissance led by the likes of T.Y. Hilton and A.J. Green?

Full Story »Russell Gage (WR, ATL) - Week 15 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 11% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Russell Gage had a monster start to the year. The Falcons wide receiver played 69 and 82 percent of Atlanta's snaps on offense, finished W1 and W2 with 20.4 and 16.6 PPR points respectively (good for WR11 and WR20), but then proceeded to […]

Full Story »Nelson Agholor (WR, LV) - Week 15 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 35% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The days of low-volume, high-efficiency Nelson Agholor are over. Agholor is not your boom/bust, four-target-or-less player anymore. The Raiders have made Agholor a fundamental part of their offense and it's been four games in a row in which the WR has logged 6+ […]
Full Story »Quarterback Waiver Wire Pickups and Streamers - Week 15
Despite Week 14 featuring a bunch of blowouts, quarterback production wasn’t anything special. Only three quarterbacks passed for over 300 yards passing. A bunch of quarterbacks were able to find the end zone through the air, however, with two players (one of which being Drew Lock) throwing for four touchdowns, two players passing for three […]
Full Story »Tim Patrick (WR, DEN) - Week 15 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 28% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Now that Tim Patrick has played 12 games, we can easily split his season into two halves which align with the before/after bye-week games of Denver.

Full Story »Jalen Hurts (QB, PHI) - Week 14 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 2QB Leagues ROSTERED: 17% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It happened. We've been calling for sitting Carson Wentz since maybe Week 2 when Wentz just finished putting up back-to-back 14-FP performances to kick the season off. The Eagles opted to keep Carson manning the pocket until that changed yesterday when Jalen Hurts finally […]
Full Story »Drew Lock (QB, DEN) - Week 15 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 11% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Has Denver found its franchise quarterback in Drew Lock, once for all? Hard to say, but in my opinion, he's as close as they've gotten as of late. Lock isn't mindblowing, and perhaps his turnover-issues will kill his real-life upside, but he's not--by […]
Full Story »Tua Tagovailoa (QB, MIA) - Week 14 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 20% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It took Tua seven appearances and six starts, but he finally got things right right.

Full Story »Derek Carr (QB, LV) - Week 15 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 47% of Leagues ANALYSIS: We're already one game into the fantasy postseason. If you still need to read my columns to remind you that Derek Carr is pretty much a must-have quarterback in every relatively-deep league, then something is wrong here. Carr has been quite productive for […]

Full Story »Yasiel Puig: Ready to Rise in 2021
Yasiel Puig signed with the Atlanta Braves in 2020 but due to having COVID, the signing never went through and he never got his chance to play. Now we enter 2021 and we get to play this waiting game again as we hope to see him sign sooner rather than later. We tend to look […]
