Grab Jarrett Jack (PG/SG, BKN) and Don't Look Back
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 76% of Yahoo! Leagues ANALYSIS: If you snagged Jarrett Jack towards the end of your respective drafts, you hit the jackpot. J.J. has been really good despite the fact that his Nets have stumbled out of the gates. On the season Jack is averaging 14.6 points, 4.4 […]
Jorge 9 years agoOmri Casspi (SF, SAC) a Deep League Stud
BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues OWNED IN: 9% of Yahoo! Fantasy Leagues ANALYSIS: Omri Casspi has been on a nice roll lately. DeMarcus Cousins will naturally draw a lot of defensive attention, so this has been creating opportunities for Casspi, as has the fact that the Kings now have Rajon Rondo's elite passing skills. […]
Jorge 9 years agoDevin Funchess Worth a Shot in Deep Leagues
BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues OWNED IN: 16% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: After a solid showing in Week nine, Devin Funchess failed to deliver in Week 10. Before the season started, many were looking at Funchess as a sleeper pick once Kelvin Benjamin went down. This hasn't happened but there could still be some […]
Jorge 9 years agoDoug Baldwin Flying High for Seahawks
BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues OWNED IN: 29% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: In a crazy Sunday night game, Doug Baldwin looked really good for the Seattle Seahawks. Baldwin caught seven of his 10 targets for 134 yards and a touchdown. The 10 targets were a team high, and he was responsible for over half […]
Jorge 9 years agoBe Patient with James White
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 39% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: We all knew James White wouldn't be as good as Dion Lewis, but the pedestrian outing on Sunday afternoon had to be cause for concern for his fantasy owners. Let's take a closer look at why James White wasn't a factor […]
Jorge 9 years agoThe Fall of a Legend: Peyton Manning
The adage goes that Father Time is undefeated, and on Sunday he claimed another victim. Peyton Manning was simply terrible against the Kansas City Chiefs. The future Hall of Famer threw four interceptions and had absolutely nothing behind his throws. It was so bad that the Broncos turned to backup quarterback Brock Osweiler. After the […]

Jorge 9 years agoMarcus Thornton Benefiting from Rockets' Small Ball
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 41% of Yahoo Leagues ANALYSIS: Marcus Thornton is blasting off in Houston! The veteran shooting guard is averaging 16.6 points a game and has been a nice boost for the Rockets' offense. Terrence Jones' injury has opened the door for Thornton and it looks like he could […]
Jorge 9 years agoNemanja Bjelica is the Manja You Want to Own
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 40% of Yahoo Leagues ANALYSIS: The 27 year old Serbian power-forward has been pretty good for the Timberwolves so far this season. On Tuesday night against the Hornets, Bjelica scored 13 points while nabbing seven boards and dishing four dimes. His three game streak of double digit […]
Jorge 9 years agoIsh Smith a Good-ish Option at the Point
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 14% Yahoo Leagues ANALYSIS: Ish Smith has come in and done a very good job for the New Orleans Pelicans. His value will take a hit when Jrue Holiday is ready to roll, but in the mean time he is looking like a Ricky Rubio lite […]
Jorge 9 years agoHeath Miller a TE Filler for Week 10
BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues OWNED IN: 47% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: I have to admit, I would have been more excited to write about Heath Miller if Big Ben were under center on Sunday. In Week 8 against the Bengals, Miller recorded 105 yards receiving on 10 catches. A solid standard league game […]
Jorge 9 years agoThe New and Improved Jay Cutler
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 48% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: I know a lot of people still want no part of Jay Cutler after the letdowns of seasons past, but it's time to recognize. Cutler has been playing very well this season despite the slew of injuries that have hit his offense. […]
Jorge 9 years agoAre The Cheeseheads Curdling? Eddie Lacy, James Jones, Randall Cobb & More
After starting 6-0, the Packers have lost two games in a row and their season is now very much in question. Since the preseason, Green Bay was going to have to overcome adversity as their star wideout Jordy Nelson went down with an ACL injury. Despite this, fans and analysts alike were confident that Aaron […]

Jorge 9 years agoKent Bazemore (ATL, SG/SF) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 41% of Yahoo Leagues ANALYSIS: Kent Bazemore has been playing very well for an Atlanta Hawks team that is off to a hot start. We saw last season that the Hawks distribute the ball well and play a bit like an Eastern Conference version of the Spurs. […]
Jorge 9 years agoKristaps Porzingis (NYK, PF) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues/ Buy Low in Trades OWNED IN: 67% of Yahoo Leagues ANALYSIS: I know, Kristaps Porzingis is owned in two thirds of Yahoo Leagues, but that's not enough. The Latvian rookie has shown potential with the Knicks so far. His ability to hit from range and to score in the […]
Jorge 9 years agoWillie Cauley-Stein (SAC, C) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Short-term Add in All Leagues/Add in all 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 45% of Yahoo Leagues ANALYSIS: With "Boogie" out for a while, Willie Cauley-Stein could be in line for some extended minutes. He's really more of a short term option, but owners in need of rebounds and blocks could do a lot […]
Jorge 9 years agoJoique Bell the RB to Own in Detroit?
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 51% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: So much for Ameer Abdullah. Many owners were hoping for a Lamar Miller-like resurgence from "AA" after the coaching change in Detroit. Unfortunately, Abdullah is deeper in the doghouse than Snoopy during a blizzard. With Zenner out, this leaves Theo Riddick […]
Jorge 9 years agoMatt Jones Still a Viable RB Option
BALLER MOVE: Add in All 10 + Team Leagues OWNED IN: 52% Owned in Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: After the Bye week to rest up and get healthy, I think Matt Jones is poised to have a solid second half. DeSean Jackson is back and that should help Kirk Cousins spread the field a bit. Jordan […]
Jorge 9 years agoChris Givens Worth a Look as Smith Sr. Replacement
BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues OWNED IN: 2% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: It was truly heart wrenching to see Steve Smith Sr.'s career potentially end due to a ruptured Achilles Tendon on Sunday. A true warrior and pretty much Joe Flacco's main option in the passing game this season. Things continue to get worse […]
Jorge 9 years agoGive Crockett Gillmore Some More Fantasy Love
BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues OWNED IN: 22% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Just like Chris Givens and Kamar Aiken, Crockett Gillmore should benefit from the loss of Steve Smith Sr. Tight ends are sparse and although Gillmore hasn't had a relevant fantasy day aside from Week 2, he should now be Flacco's top endzone […]

Jorge 9 years agoLadarius Green a Potential Top Option ROS
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 52% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Ladarius Green was a beast on Sunday. I know many critics and doubters will say that was only because Antonio Gates was out, but Green has proven he has value even when Gates does play. Rivers has been slinging the ball […]
Jorge 9 years agoBrandon LaFell Hopes to Knock Rust Off
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 52% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: That was certainly an inauspicious start to Brandon LaFell's 2015 season on Sunday. In fairness, he was very rusty and he did not have an easy matchup against the Jets. That being said, his quarterback is still Tom Brady, and I'm buying […]
Jorge 9 years agoStay the Course with Matt Jones
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 54% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: The Redskins' ground game has been a mess, but Jones was on the field more than Alfred Morris. While his usage on Sunday was a bit confusing, a running back who will see goal line touches in the NFL has fantasy […]

Jorge 9 years agoGary Barnidge, Charles Clay - Week 6 Lineup Busts?
Gary Barnidge (TE, CLE) Suddenly the third ranked fantasy tight end in the league, Gary Barnidge looks the part of a potential beast this season. But against an elite Denver defense that has yet to surrender a touchdown to a tight end this year, it may be wise to leave Barnidge on the bench this week. […]
Jorge 9 years agoPierre Garcon, Jeremy Maclin - Week 6 Lineup Busts?
Pierre Garcon (WR, WAS) Basically anyone who is facing Darrelle Revis will likely have a bad day. When it’s a glorified No. 2 receiver like Pierre Garcon, a bust is even more likely. Fantasy owners may have no choice but to start Garcon because of bye weeks, but a trip to Revis Island is rarely productive. […]
Jorge 9 years agoAndre Ellington, Duke Johnson - Week 6 Lineup Busts?
Andre Ellington (RB, ARI) While Andre Ellington has scored in both games he played this season, his limited carries last week coupled with Pittsburgh’s strong running defense makes it difficult to trust him. The Steelers haven’t allowed a rushing touchdown to a running back this season so things don’t look good for Ellington. Duke […]
