BALLER MOVE: Add In 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 20% of leagues ANALYSIS: If you are more than an average basketball fan and NBA follower, you surely know Shabazz Napier. At the end of the day, Napier was a first-round draftee but he never truly seemed to pan out in his first five seasons in the […]

When it comes to handling a fantasy football team there isn't a single approach to win the weekend or the season.

Fantasy Playoffs Passing Leaderboards: Next Gen Stats

It's over. The season is over. I can't believe my eyes, but they're telling me pretty clearly that we're past Week 16 and that's a wrap for our fantasy football adventures in the year 2019. I still remember those days thinking about untapped potential, impossible expectations, and lifting trophies just before feasting in back-to-back Christmas […]

Gus Edwards (RB, BAL) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 10% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Mark Ingram left last weekend’s game injured and Gus Edwards took on the majority of the Ravens’ backfield workload. In his 12 carries on the game, he was able to rack up 66 yards on the ground and added an extra 7 more through […]

Justice Hill (RB, BAL) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR leagues OWNED IN: 4% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Quite the season for the Ravens, isn’t it? Baltimore has already won its division and will be on a bye during the first round of playoff games. Of course, leading-back Mark Ingram will sit out next week’s game (because of Baltimore’s record […]

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

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 9% of Leagues ANALYSIS: For one reason or another, Russell Gage seems to have found his place in Atlanta’s offense. More than anything, Sanu’s trade opened the door to an extended usage and in the games that’s been the case he has been able to put […]

Diontae Johnson (WR, PIT) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 15% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Diontae Johnson of all Steelers is about to finish the 2019 season as the receiver with most snaps to his name on offense among those to play in Pittsburgh this year. Not that he doesn’t merit the accolade, though. Another week, another great […]

John Ross (WR, CIN) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 13% of Leagues ANALYSIS: I’m afraid we won’t see Week 1 John Ross any time son, but if Ross is able to put together another performance as that of last weekend I’d be very comfortable playing him next week. Ross came back (at least to a […]

Albert Wilson (WR, MIA) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 28% of Leagues ANALYSIS: I don’t know about you, but I surely was very high on Albert Wilson entering the season. Sadly, injuries kept him out for most of the first third of the season and even after getting back he didn’t do a lot in his […]

Mike Gesicki (TE, MIA) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 28% of Leagues ANALYSIS: After playing 31 games as a pro, Mike Gesicki finally finished a game with two receiving touchdowns.

Daniel Jones (QB, NYG) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 19% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It looks like a couple of games off the field made wonders for Daniel Jones, right? The rookie came back after handing the reins to Eli Manning in weeks 14 and 15 and he performed as good as ever: 5 (!) touchdowns did […]

Andy Dalton (QB, CIN) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 2QB Leagues OWNED IN: 9% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Andy Dalton lost the starting nod earlier in the year and was riding the pine as soon as in Week 10. He did so for three games and was back starting again for the Bengals in Week 13. This past weekend, though, marked his […]

Drew Lock (QB, DEN) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 2QB Leagues OWNED IN: 6% of Leagues ANALYSIS: We can’t pretend Drew Lock is a fantasy darling, but in his four professional games as a starter so far he’s done enough to be considered a good second-fiddle and QB2 in such leagues. This past weekend he bounced back a bit and although […]

Gardner Minshew (QB, JAX) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 2QB Leagues OWNED IN: 15% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Even though it wasn’t his best game ever, Gardner Minshew was able, once again, to do enough to be considered a good play in 2QB leagues all around the nation. Sure, the 181 yards on 13 completions were not mind-blowing, nor was his 41.9 […]

Danny Amendola (WR, DET) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 25% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Veteran greats never die. Danny Amendola, a once 13.5 fantasy points per game-type player, put on one of his best games of the year this past Sunday while facing Tampa Bay. Amendola finished the day with 102 yards on eight receptions (13 […]

Gardner Minshew (QB, JAX) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 2QB Leagues OWNED IN: 15% of Leagues ANALYSIS: I might be a homer writing this little article, but I have believed in Gardner Minshew since the very first moment he took the field all the way back in Week 1 and he hasn’t disappointed just one bit. Sure, he’s had his bad […]

Mitchell Trubisky (QB, CHI) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 23% of Leagues ANALYSIS: While Mitchell Trubisky was close to pulling another upset against Green Bay this past Sunday, he ultimately fell short and Chicago conceded another loss. Not everything is bad for fantasy owners, though, as Trubisky excelled once again. He wasn’t that good if looking […]

Ryan Fitzpatrick (QB, MIA) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 25% of Leagues ANALYSIS: In the season of the running-quarterback (shouts Lamar Jackson!) Ryan Fitzpatrick has found his way to enter (at least for now) the history books. Fitzpatrick just became the Dolphins leading rusher this past Sunday running for 33 yards on four attempts. More important […]

Anthony Miller (WR, CHI) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 26% of Leagues ANALYSIS: If anyone other than Allen Robinson (obviously) is excelling in this “new” Mitch Trubisky-led offense of the Bears that must be Anthony Miller. The numbers certainly don’t lie. Just take a look at what happened last Sunday against Green Bay: Miller finished with […]

Dwayne Haskins (QB, WAS) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 2QB Leagues OWNED IN: 3% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It took time, but Dwayne Haskins seems to be finally heating up. And the flames might be coming at the perfect time for those still battling for the fantasy football chip. Haskins just completed the second multi-touchdown game of his career against Philadelphia on […]

Chris Conley (WR, JAX) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 22% of Leagues ANALYSIS: While Chris Conley’s season hasn’t been the best from a receiver league-wide, not a lot of us would have predicted him finishing the year as the Jaguar with the second-most snaps played in 2019. He’s only trailing D.J. Chark and Conley's incredible game […]

Breshad Perriman (WR, TB) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 11% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Mike Evans’ came first. Chris Godwin’s followed. The injury bug has hit Tampa Bay so hard that none other than Breshard Perriman has become the go-to guy of the Bucs attack, and he’s more than handling that task. Perriman had his best game […]

Drew Lock (QB, DEN) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 2QB Leagues OWNED IN: 6% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Either you’re uniquely great, or you’re going to struggle as a rookie passer. That is how pro football works. Ask Drew Lock, who has seen it all. The Denver Broncos now-starting quarterback had an average first game (16.2 fantasy points), a booming second one […]

Diontae Johnson (WR, PIT) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 15% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Diontae Johnson might not be a league winner, but he is still in a very good position to help you get that coveted championship trophy. Just a couple of weeks ago Devlin Hodges helped Johnson reach 60 yards and score a touchdown in […]
