About Evan - RotoBaller
I grew up in New Jersey, just 30 minutes outside Philadelphia. Everyone in my neighborhood followed the Eagles with a passion. My fandom has not swayed over the last few years, but I found a passion for fantasy football that comes close to my love for the Birds. I've made some awesome picks throughout my years, like grabbing Arian Foster when he broke out and picking up Kurt Warner off free agency. However I've also made some horrible moves, such as grabbing Darren McFadden in every fantasy league I could 2 years ago. That's the joy of fantasy football though, you never know what can happen.

Marquess Wilson (WR, CHI) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 6% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: I wouldn’t necessarily consider Wilson a deep sleeper, but he was probably on the waiver wire in almost every league outside of dynasties. Wilson was a mega-prospect coming out of college that has a size/speed skillset not unlike his teammate Alshon Jeffery (except with more speed). After injuring... Read More

Marqise Lee (WR, JAX) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper PPR Leagues ANALYSIS: After struggling with hamstring injuries to begin the year, Marqise Lee has finally seen his targets rise dramatically the past 2 games to the point where he may be considered fantasy relevant. With a fantasy playoff schedule of the Texans, Ravens and Titans (who just got torched... Read More
Stedman Bailey (WR, STL) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper PPR Leagues ANALYSIS: Bailey is a guy I’ve been keeping my eyes on since being drafted by the Rams last year. He finally was able to earn a prominent role in the offense this week, and did more than deliver, hauling in over 100 yards in the first quarter in a dominant performance,... Read More
Donte Moncrief (WR, IND) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues ANALYSIS: I listed Moncrief on my deep league sleepers page last week, and also previously in the season. With Reggie Wayne sharply declining, now is the time to pick up his replacement off the waiver wire before you miss out. The Colts have an extremely favorable playoff schedule against the Browns, Texans, and... Read More

BALLER MOVE: Add in All 2 QB Leagues / Deeper 1 QB Leagues OWNED IN: 21% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: With Nick Foles out for at least the rest of the fantasy season, Mark Sanchez will step in as the quarterback of one of the best fantasy offenses in the NFL. With only Matt Barkley as a backup, look for... Read More
Taylor Gabriel (WR, CLE) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 2% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: With Andrew Hawkins being questionable against the Bengals on Thursday, Gabriel becomes somewhat of a flyer add this week as the most explosive player on the waiver wire. With 21 catches on 37 targets, Gabriel ranks second in the league in yards per... Read More

Jonas Gray (RB, NE) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues Owned in 5% Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: It’s impossible to judge Patriots running backs. Vereen had a monster game in Week 7, so it’s only fair that Bill Belichick rewards Jonas Gray with more touches than Vereen in Week 8, right? The master of game planning, it’s impossible to predict how... Read More
Jonathan Stewart (RB, CAR) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues Owned in 56% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Well, this a nice resurgence. Had it not been for Jonathan Stewart's strong play in Week 8, the Panthers may have had the opportunity to fail miserably in the red-zone against the Seahawks. He rushed for 79 yards on 16 carries and... Read More
Theo Riddick (RB, DET) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues Owned in 4% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Reggie who? Theo Riddick has made a name for himself in two of the past three weeks as a dangerous pass catching weapon out of the backfield. Against the Falcons swiss-cheese defense, he hauled in 8 catches for 74 yards... Read More
Lorenzo Taliaferro (RB, BAL) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues Owned in 13% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: It’s clear that the Ravens won’t be using Justin Forsett in goal line opportunities this year, as Bernard Pierce stole touchdowns in week’s 6 and 7, while Taliaferro stole two this week. With Pierce being hugely ineffective, Lorenzo Taliaferro got his shot and delivered big time in week... Read More
Charles Sims (RB, TB) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper PPR Leagues Owned in 9% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: This is the guy I’m looking to buy in just about any PPR league as a great stash. With Doug Martin struggling (and injured), and Bobby Rainey clearly not a favorite of the coaches, Sims should have his chance to shine once he returns from IR. Sims... Read More
