Monday Morning NFL Recap - Week 7 Surprises, Busts & Laughers

I feel like we as a country needed this week to happen, you know?  To fall back into the comforting routine of Roger Goodell's catching heat for his complete, almost sociopathic lack of regard for the health or happiness of women.  I'm not saying he's secretly a sci-fi version of Donald Trump who's discovered a […]

Fantasy Football Buy Low & Sell High Candidates for Week 7

The waiver wire isn't the only place to change the course of your team. The right trade can make or break your season. The key is to buy low on cold players and sell overachieving players whose values have skyrocketed. While this is a well-known method, some owners still tend to overreact to a small sample size, so […]

Jay Ajayi (RB, MIA) Waiver Wire Pickup

BALLER MOVE: Pick up in 10-12 team leagues. OWNED IN: 42.5% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Jay Ajayi went completely bonkers in Week 6 against the Pittsburgh Steelers defense. He demolished the opposition with 25 carries for 204 yards and two touchdowns. That is over eight yards-per-carry (YPC). The even more surprising thing about this situation was that he did this […]

Week 7 NFL Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds

Welcome to the post-Week 6 installment of the Waiver Wire weekly series for the 2016 fantasy football season. I wager most of you didn’t hurt too badly with BYEs, as only Minnesota and Tampa Bay were off. More likely, you got burned by the “active” Arian Foster or Pittsburgh-falling-on-its-face against Miami. Speaking of, many of […]

Jay Ajayi (RB, MIA) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

Baller Move: Add in 10-team leagues Owned In: 37% of Fleaflicker leagues Analysis: So much for the return of Arian Foster. Technically he did return, but was not in the starting lineup and carried the ball just three times. Enter Jay Ajayi, who had never even run for 50 yards in a single game in his brief NFL career. […]

MarQueis Gray (TE, MIA) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14- and 16-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 0% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Third-string tight ends make their way on fantasy rosters as often as waterboys and assistant coaches, but MarQueis Gray is someone to watch in deep leagues after catching three passes for 81 yards against Pittsburgh.  With Jordan Cameron concussed and Dion Sims ineffective, Gray could play […]

Jay Ajayi (RB, MIA) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

Baller Move: Add in 10-team leagues Owned In: 37% of Fleaflicker leagues Analysis: And were we ever impressed by Jay Ajayi's 13-42-1 line against Tennessee in Week 5, sheesh. He entered Miami’s Week 6 matchup against the Steelers with rather-low odds of a breakout, which were further dampened by the news that Arian Foster would be active. Ajayi out-snapped […]

Fantasy Mad Libs: Starts and Sits for Week 6

Week 6. Can I be honest? I gave up in one league already. For most leagues, it's barely a third of the way through the season, and if you own Le'Veon Bell or Tom Brady it is far too early to cut bait on an entire team. It was my dynasty league, the one I […]
