Jaret Patterson (RB, WAS) - Fantasy Football Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 2% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Antonio Gibson keeps grinding through the season despite playing through multiple injuries but his effectiveness continues to wane.

Ty Johnson (RB, NYJ) - Fantasy Football Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 5% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Do the Jets suddenly have an offense? We'll see what version of Mike White we get next week but it's certainly looking better than before. As long as Tevin Coleman remains sidelined with a bum hammy, Johnson will get a fair amount of touches alongside Michael Carter.... Read More

Wide Receivers - Rest of Season Rankings for Fantasy Football
This is the time of the fantasy football season when teams with losing records either start to panic or lose interest and stop making moves to improve their teams.

2021 Fantasy Baseball Pitching Awards
The World Series is underway, promising us a new champion this year. It will be followed soon thereafter by the announcement of the 2021 MLB Awards.

Week 8 Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds
If you survived the first byepocalypse and emerged with a victory, congratulations. The coming week brings only two teams on bye, so reliance on waivers should be far less and the options slightly more enticing. As always, I will identify as many noteworthy waiver wire targets as possible at every position with a brief explanation of... Read More

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues, Superflex / 2QB Leagues ROSTERED IN: 37% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Despite playing in extremely wet conditions, Wentz had another solid outing against a tough defense in Week 7.

Top Trade Targets and Avoids for Week 7
Lamenting the byepocalypse won't do much good. There are fewer players worth starting and many fantasy football lineups are plugging in players never thought to be fantasy-relevant. You won't get much help from the waiver wire, so why not improve your team through the trade market instead? This article will advise fantasy GMs on players... Read More
Running Backs - Rest of Season Rankings for Fantasy Football
Fantasy football is a weekly game and always has been. In 2021, with COVID still a factor and injuries running rampant more than ever, it's nearly impossible to predict what the remainder of the season will look like. But that's exactly what I'll attempt to do. No position is more volatile than running back and... Read More
Week 7 Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds
The waiver wire may not look any prettier this week but it's more important than ever with six teams due for a bye. For that reason, certain players coming off big games or on potent offenses may not be mentioned whereas others that may not normally be relevant will be on the list for Week... Read More
Jaret Patterson (RB, WAS) - Fantasy Football Week 7 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 1% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The shin injury that is hampering Gibson could lead to missed time and a big opportunity for Patterson. He has all of nine carries for 28 yards on the season so we don't know what he is capable of just yet. He was... Read More
D'Ernest Johnson (RB, CLE) - Fantasy Football Week 7 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 2% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Kareem Hunt's calf injury is expected to sideline him for a few weeks and an IR stint seems inevitable.

Coaches on the Hot Seat - Fantasy Implications
The first NFL head coach who didn't make it through the 2021 season was Jon Gruden, although not at all for reasons anyone would have anticipated (except Keyshawn Johnson). The Gruden story alludes to a larger problem within the league and society as a whole but this piece isn't meant to serve as a platform... Read More
Week 6 Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds
Unfortunately, the injury bug has come back to bite some big-name running backs. If you managed to add Alexander Mattison a couple weeks ago or Damien Williams last week and roll with them in your lineup, you were a happy GM in Week 5. Will replacements for Saquon Barkley and Clyde Edwards-Helaire be similarly productive... Read More
Taylor Heinicke (QB, WAS) - Fantasy Football Week 6 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues and 2QB/Superflex Leagues ROSTERED IN: 16% of Leagues ANALYSIS: What's that sound? It's the siren song of garbage time points forthcoming. Heinicke played his worst game of the year against New Orleans, tossing two picks and completing less than half of his passes over 41 attempts. The Saints... Read More
Top Trade Targets and Avoids for Week 5
Welcome to Trade Targets and Avoids for Week 5. While trade strategy varies widely depending on league size and, most importantly, league mates, we will identify some players who are ideal targets in the current market. Those who follow last week's advice might have acquired Robert Woods before his explosion on Thursday night. We will... Read More

Smart Dynasty Early-Season Stashes
It would be easy to forget about waivers in dynasty leagues. Most of the promising young players are already rostered and some dynasty leagues are deep enough that there isn't anybody worth scooping up unless you want to take a flier on Kerryon Johnson becoming relevant again. Even for teams in win-now mode, there are... Read More
Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds
We had a clear frontrunner for top waiver priority and FAB burner this week before Sunday even began. Christian McCaffrey is expected to miss time with a hamstring injury suffered Thursday night, which means rookie Chuba Hubbard will be added everywhere by frustrated C-Mac stakeholders or sniped by others looking to spite their league mates.... Read More
Sammy Watkins (WR, BAL) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 23% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Funny how Watkins is getting more passes thrown his way in Baltimore - the team with the lowest number of passing plays last year - than he ever did in Kansas City. Watkins has seen eight, seven, and seven targets in his... Read More
Tim Patrick (WR, DEN) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 22% of Leagues ANALYSIS: While Courtland Sutton's stakeholders weren't too thrilled, Patrick rewarded those who added him on waivers yet again. He didn't score a touchdown but he did come away with a team-high 98 receiving yards. Jerry Jeudy is still out and K.J. Hamler is going to miss... Read More
