Rex Burkhead (RB, HOU) - Fantasy Football Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 8% of Leagues ANALYSIS: I'm a simple man: I see an RB1 available in my WW, I go and grab some shares. It's really easy and such a straightforward approach that for those in deeper leagues it should take no time to make that decision. Rex […]

DeSean Jackson (WR, LV) - Fantasy Football Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 4% of Leagues ANALYSIS: DeSean Jackson definitely didn't have a great start to the 2021 season, and it can even be said that his whole Rams tenure was a rather forgettable one this year. LA has played staggering football this season, but other than in Week […]

Jack Doyle (TE, IND) - Fantasy Football Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 1% of Leagues ANALYSIS: You might not love Jack Doyle, but you have to acknowledge how even on a low snap share the Colts tight end has been able to put up numbers more often than not--most of them all in the past five weeks and […]

Cole Kmet (TE, CHI) - Fantasy Football Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 24% of Leagues ANALYSIS: There is a thing about Chicago and it is that the Bears have pretty much sucked for most of the season. Not happy enough with the start to their campaign, Chicago moved on from veteran Andy Dalton to rookie Justin Fields at […]

Boston Scott (RB, PHI) - Fantasy Football Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 19% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Look, we have consumed 12 weeks of games already. In other words, we're past the second-third of the season. With that good chunk of play already in the rearview mirror, call me crazy but I think it's safe to assume Philadelphia hates […]

Jamaal Williams (RB, DET) - Fantasy Football Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 39% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The Lions, somehow, have been able to not win a game 12 weeks into the season. Not a very good stat, but it's not that this team has many truly threatening weapons out there on the gridiron on a weekly basis. And even […]

Welcome to the RotoBaller NBA Recap. In this feature, we will highlight a few key fantasy basketball takeaways from the games played during last night's slate.

Fantasy Basketball Deeper-League Waiver Wire Adds for Week 7: Malik Monk, Anfernee Simons, Rudy Gay

The deeper a fantasy basketball league, the harder it is to hit a winner with your last few picks. It is also harder to find decent help from the waiver wire if your late-round picks don't do you justice. If you picked up a few stinkers, don't lose hope just yet. I will try to […]

Kevin Huerter (SG/SF, ATL): Week 7 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 40% of leagues ANALYSIS: The Redhead Mamba started the season slowly and came off the pine as part of Atlanta's second unit nightly. No bueno. The Hawks had a rough start to the year on top of that, and with Huerter limited to just 23 MPG […]

Matisse Thybulle (SG/SF, PHI): Week 7 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 52% of leagues ANALYSIS: Saying Matisse Thybulle is a one-of-a-kind type of player isn't too far-fetched, folks. And I'm just not talking about cherry-picking stats here and there to elevate the Sixer, no sir. Thybs has definitely benefited from the absence of the likes of Joel […]

Malik Beasley (PG/SG, MIN): Week 7 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 32% of leagues ANALYSIS: Rollercoaster of a season for Malik Beasley, this one. He started the year with four consecutive stinkers, improved to a very tasty number to kick November off, then came back to hell for a week, and in the past five games he's played […]

Pat Connaughton (SG/SF, MIL): Week 7 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 40% of leagues ANALYSIS: The Bucks are still missing Donte DiVincenzo and although Khris Middleton is back on the court after missing a few games--of which Pat Connaughton took great care starting at both forward positions--Patty keeps playing ample time nightly while delivering sound performances for […]

Alex Caruso (PG/SG, CHI): Week 7 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 58% of leagues ANALYSIS: My boss is going to kill me the minute he sees this post because that 58-percent rostership is way above the threshold... only I'm my own boss so I'll give myself a pass because the Bald Boy Alex Caruso deserves this type […]

Kelly Oubre Jr. (SF/PF, CHA): Week 7 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 56% of leagues ANALYSIS: Second week in a row I'm breaking the rostership-law thanks the Wave Papi. Makes sense, though. Kelly Oubre Jr. has been a freakish revelation coming off the pine for the Hornets, and so should he be doing for you in pretty much […]

Anfernee Simons (PG/SG, POR): Week 7 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 11% of leagues ANALYSIS: The best Anfernee since Penny Hardaway. Anfernee Simons is balling for the Blazers this season yet he's somehow heavily flying under the radar of most fantasy GMs out there. Damn. I could have understood that in years past if only because of […]

Patty Mills (PG/SG, BKN): Week 7 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 46% of leagues ANALYSIS: As long as Kyrie Irving remains unvaccinated and thus ineligible to play for the Nets (or he gets traded away in exchange for another point guard), Patty Mills will stay as the main beneficiary of Irving stubborn ways. And things have gotten […]

Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (PG/SG, WAS): Week 7 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 20% of leagues ANALYSIS: Not a single game. Not a single one has KCP missed this season when it comes to being part of the Wiz Kiz starting lineup, manning the SF slot 19 times already to kick the year off. Quarter of a season in […]

Marquez Valdes-Scantling (WR, GB) - Fantasy Football Week 12 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 16+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 9% of Leagues ANALYSIS: This is definitely just a move for those in the deepest of fantasy leagues. That's mostly because Marquez Vales-Scantling is Green Bay's WR3 and/or WR4 at the very best and prior to W11 he had topped at a 66% snap share while […]

Elijah Moore (WR, NJY) - Fantasy Football Week 12 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues ROSTERED IN: 57% of Leagues ANALYSIS: I'm molly-breaking the self-imposed 50-percent threshold with this post, but I'm glad I'm doing so. Honestly. Because if you go check your WW and you happen to find Moore still sitting in there, then you can grab a prime piece ROS for the […]

Cam Newton (QB, CAR) - Fantasy Football Week 12 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 51% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Cam Newton is so good it's barely believable, and we can only thank the Panthers for handing him another chance (read: deal) to man Carolina's offense ROS after parting ways with him just a handful of months ago. No collusion is attached […]

The Running Game Is Alive! NextGen Stats Analysis

Folks, it's time to put on your battle armor and get ready for war. We've completed 11 weeks and I can see the playoffs on the horizon already. And let me tell you something: nobody is pushing me out of them. If you too have a chance at making the playoffs at this point in […]

Tua Tagovailoa (QB, MIA) - Fantasy Football Week 12 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Leagues ROSTERED IN: 45% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Tua Tagovailoa has had a rough season mostly because of his injuries. Other than that, though, he's been a lock to start for the Fins in all games he's been healthy enough to doing so with the exception of W10, in which he […]

Russell Gage (WR, ATL) - Fantasy Football Week 12 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED IN: 17% of Leagues ANALYSIS: I know what you're thinking: how the hell am I going to add a wideout who plays for a quarterback that finished his last two games with a combined 5.8 FP!? And there would be nothing wrong with that statement because that […]

Mac Jones (QB, NE) - Fantasy Football Week 12 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 2QB Leagues ROSTERED IN: 40% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Salute to the 15th pick of the 2021 NFL draft and fifth quarterback off the board. LOL. The Pats can't lose even if they want to, man. Jones, even though being the latest of the top-tier quarterbacks to be selected this past summer, […]

Darnell Mooney (WR, CHI) - Fantasy Football Week 12 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 58% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It is very clear how Darnell Mooney's rostership has grown through the season and how it is now clocking in above 50% easily. That said, I have a good excuse for writing about Mooney's viability as a WW target given the latest […]
