Chris Godwin (WR, TB) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 30% of Leagues ANALYSIS: If we're judging by pure physical talent alone, Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin is a must-add. He displayed that talent with a nice touchdown grab near the sideline, finishing with 31 yards on four receptions. DeSean Jackson stole the show, but he suffered a […]

Ryan Griffin (TE, HOU) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 2% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Houston Texans tight end Ryan Griffin is not just the starting tight end in Houston, he is already one of their main red zone threats. Griffin was targeted twice inside the end zone, only to be overthrown by Deshaun Watson, and only has DeAndre Hopkins as […]

Eric Ebron (TE, IND) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 32% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Indianapolis Colts tight end Eric Ebron might be on the verge of a breakout. Could it be?

Dallas Goedert (TE, PHI) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 3% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The final stat line was not great (one reception for four yards) and the Eagles offense was not impressive in general with Nick Foles at the helm, but Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert nearly nabbed his first NFL touchdown early in the game. You […]

Jonnu Smith (TE, TEN) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 1% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Tennessee Titans tight end Jonnu Smith is in a good spot to get a lot of playing time. Delanie Walker's misfortune now creates an opportunity for Smith to shine in his second season. Walker left the first contest of the year with an ankle […]

Ryan Grant (WR, IND) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 3% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Sure enough, Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Ryan Grant had a busy day in his first start with the Colts. His nine targets were the most on the team and his eight receptions tie him for eighth-most in the league so far. Expect Grant […]

Taylor Gabriel (WR, CHI) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 1% of Leagues ANALYSIS: At the time of this writing, Chicago Bears wide receiver Taylor Gabriel had five catches against the Packers, two on the Bears' first offensive drive alone. That may not mean much, but it does show promise that he will be involved in the […]

Brandon Marshall (WR, SEA) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 6% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Brandon Marshall showed he still has something left in the tank, catching three of six targets for 46 yards and a touchdown. He also caught another touchdown pass, but was flagged for offensive pass interference. Marshall shouldn't be overlooked due […]

Geronimo Allison (WR, GB) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 11% of Leagues ANALYSIS: For a moment, it looked as if the fantasy value of every Packers skill player just went out the window. Then Aaron Rodgers came back and so did the Pack. Green Bay Packers wide receiver Geronimo Allison made his presence known in a big way […]

Tyrell Williams (WR, LAC) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 19% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Tyrell Williams only caught two passes for eight yards, but consider that one of them was a touchdown and he had another long touchdown grab slip through his fingers. Williams could have put together a big fantasy day […]

John Ross (WR, CIN) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 26% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver John Ross was a massive bust as a first round rookie last season.

Statcast Hitter Analysis - Launch Angle Risers/Fallers (Week 24)

Statcast Hitter Analysis - Exit Velocity Risers/Fallers (Week 23)

Bold Predictions for 2018 Fantasy Football - Pierre Camus

Next up to bat, stepping up the plate... wait, wrong sport.

Could Tavon Austin Be Zeke's Kryptonite in PPR?

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott could be the top overall player in fantasy football in 2018. In fact, I had this notion throughout the offseason that he would be utilized more in the passing game and parlay his league-leading rushing yard-per-game average into an overall RB1 finish. But I'm taking it back. Dez Bryant […]

Buy or Sell - Undervalued and Overvalued Players for Week 20

If your league doesn't have a trade deadline before September (or at all), you still have plenty of time to wheel and deal for the playoff stretch. Most of us, however, are up against Father Time and his ceaseless battle to rob us of our most precious commodity. If you're in the market to make […]
