Karlos Williams Continues to Reward Owners
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 47% Owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Karlos Williams has been one of the biggest surprises in this year's rookie RB crop. He came out of the draft with nearly no hype (in fact, most of what I've seen on him was negative) and barely saw his stock rise... Read More

Week 9 Waiver Wire Overview: Jeremy Langford, Kamar Aiken, Robert Woods & More
Waiver Wire Adds for Week Nine The eighth Sunday of the season is through and if you were lucky enough to have your team finish this week healthy, you probably won. Week 8 saw an unspeakable amount of injuries to major players, another dominant showing from future Hall of Famer and winner of at least two league... Read More
Robert Woods Could Benefit from Easy Coverage
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14- and 16-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 15% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: It seems like forever ago, but there was a time where Robert Woods had a lot of hype on him coming out of USC. It's also been a long time since Percy Harvin had a ton of hype on him. Speaking of Harvin,... Read More
Jamison Crowder is Worth a Shot in PPR Leagues
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 11% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Jamison Crowder's ownership remained low over the bye week, which is great because he'll be easy to grab now. Since gaining a legitimate role in the Redskins offense, Crowder has hovered between nine and 16 points every week in PPR leagues, creating a... Read More
Kamar Aiken Is the Number One Wideout in Baltimore
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 15% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: This isn't the way anyone wanted to see Steve Smith Sr. end his football career. Having another great year, Smith unfortunately will have his final season before retirement end on the heels of an achilles injury. One of football's most under-appreciated players hopefully... Read More
Geno Smith Is Worth a Shot in Deep Leagues
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14- and 16-Team Leagues or 2QB Leagues OWNED IN: 5% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Oh boy, here I go again. I've always been interested in Geno Smith's potential fantasy value. A quarterback who can attack the field everywhere and has the ability to run for big gains, Geno's been consistently held back by a weak... Read More
Red Hot Derek Carr Has an Easy Upcoming Schedule
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues, Start in Deep Leagues OWNED IN: 45% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Derek Carr's already owned in a lot of leagues, but this number should really rise after this week. Against the New York Jets, Carr had his best game yet. He attacked the entire field, maximizing his wide receivers' space to help them gain... Read More
Can Peyton Manning Resurrect Vernon Davis' Career?
BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 28% Owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: That's right, Vernon Davis is now a Bronco. One of the greatest athletes at the position of all time, Davis will be given a chance to recharge his career with a Peyton led team including a Gary Kubiak offense that has... Read More
Roll the Dice on Jacob Tamme for Some TE Help
BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues OWNED IN: 11% Owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Jacob Tamme comes in and out of relevance. It's hard to rely on him, but I like momentum. Tamme's not worth spending a high waiver pick on, but if you're desperate he has value as long as Hankerson is injured and defenses... Read More
Recent Injury Bug Could Open Door for Ben Tate
BALLER MOVE: Speculative Add in Deeper Leagues OWNED IN: 5% Owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Man, remember Ben Tate? Everyone use to be so excited about this guy before he had a rough, rough season with the Browns that involved losing his job to Isaiah Crowell and Terrance West (who have both lost their jobs). Well,... Read More
Bid Aggressively on DeAngelo Williams
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 54% Owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: He's already owned in most leagues, but if you're in one where he isn't, he has to be owned now. During the two weeks Bell was out, Williams somehow managed to be amongst the top fantasy running backs and is on his... Read More
Orleans Darkwa a Not So Dark Horse RB Pickup
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 16% Owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Orleans Darkwa would leave the game early on against the Saints, but once again he looked like a good running back on the NFL field. I'd be more than willing to take Darkwa on most rosters I have and hope that he... Read More
Could David Cobb Give Your Team a Titanic Boost?
BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues OWNED IN: 39% Owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: We're getting closer to the time of the season where Cobb returns and carries everyone into the promise land of the playoffs. Nah, not really. But he's going to likely do better than any of the current backs are playing in Tennessee.... Read More
Ray Rice a Good Stash for Desperate Owners?
BALLER MOVE: Speculative Add in Deep Leagues OWNED IN: 7% Owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Look, no one's expecting him to get signed. I'm not going to tell you to drop a player for him either but if you've got the spot open why not? Le'Veon Bell, Matt Forte, and even Reggie Bush's injury opens up the need for... Read More
Jeremy Langford a Top Tier Injury Replacement
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 10% Owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Matt Forte is reportedly dealing with an MCL injury, meaning Langford becomes the next man up. Langford was an elusive back in college who showed some good spurts of vision and had some receiving skills to boot. In my notes, I felt... Read More

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... Read More
Titans a High Risk/Reward Unit in Week 8
BALLER MOVE: Add as Streamer Defense OWNED IN: 15% Owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: You want a crazy punt play? Here's as crazy as it can get. Brian Hoyer isn't immune to throwing INTs. He also has the 10th highest sack rate in the league right now. The Texans just lost Arian Foster for the season,... Read More
Eric Ebron Roaring for Lions
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12 Team Leagues or Deeper OWNED IN: 33% Owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS:There was a lot of hype about Eric Ebron when he entered the draft. Some people even believed he'd have first year value at a position that has almost never had first year value. Obviously, that didn't happen- but now... Read More
Redskins Will Look to Feed Jordan Reed
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 45% Owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Jordan Reed returned to the Redskins in grand fashion with the top scoring performance amongst TE's, putting together 11 catches for 72 yards and two touchdowns. As the only special target on the Redskins, Reed is going to demand targets and continue... Read More
Danny Amendola's Role Growing?
BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues OWNED IN: 16% Owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: I don't believe any notion that Amendola is breaking out all over again but the situation might be a lot more positive than we're assuming. Julian Edelman is hurting with drops, Dion Lewis is injured and may continue to stay injured, and... Read More
Stefon Diggs Quickly Ascending WR Ranks
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 38% Owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: He was the #1 priority waiver last week, and it's going to be no different this week. Diggs is on his way to being the waiver WR breakout for the 2015 season and should be owned. Against the Detroit Lions Diggs managed... Read More
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... Read More
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... Read More
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... Read More
Cutler a Cut Above Other Bye Week Options
BALLER MOVE: Add as Bye Week Replacement OWNED IN: 39% Owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Jay Cutler is returning from a bye-week, just in time to cover yours. Cutler hasn't been killing it this year but has been able to put together some high end QB2 performances since returning from injury. This week he'll face the... Read More

Week 7 Waiver Wire Overview: James Starks, Christine Michael & More
Waiver Wire Adds for Week Seven The sixth Sunday of the season is through, and the wackiness continues. Carolina did what few have been able to do in recent years and completed a comeback win against the Seahawks in their own stadium, while the Chargers fell just short of stopping the Packers win streak. And there's still... Read More
Benjamin Watson; A Saintly TE Option This Week
BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues OWNED IN: 10% Owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Honestly, there aren't good tight end options appearing on the waiver this week. However, for people looking at tight ends, your current options probably aren't very good either. Watson is coming off one of his best games as a pro and has... Read More
