Maxx Williams a Desperation TE Play
BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues OWNED IN: 10% Owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Most fantasy owners and pundits probably assumed that Baltimore’s pass offense would go down the drain faster than your mother-in-law’s cold onion soup once Joe Flacco suffered his season-ending injury.

Zach Ertz the Target Monster
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 40% Owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Ertz’s 2015 campaign was rockier than Rick Perry’s presidential campaign. He went without a touchdown catch for the first 10 games and missed a week due to a concussion. But at least Ertz’s 2015 is ending on a much higher note than... Read More

Bilal Powell the Jet's Secret Receiving Weapon
BALLER MOVE: Add in All PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 32% owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: It appears the Jets have finally found a really nice way to utilize Powell out of the backfield. He is showing some strength in his runs and his usually reliable set of hands in the passing game. With defenses trying their... Read More
James White "Catching On" to Patriot Way
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 51% owned in Fleaflicker <-- yes I cheated a smidge to include him. ANALYSIS: If James White is somehow still available in PPR leagues you need to get him. Even if standard though, he has proven that he is trusted by Tom Brady in the passing attack... Read More

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues/Add in Deep Leagues OWNED IN: Karlos Williams: 46% owned in Fleaflicker / Mike Gillislee: 1% owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: LeSean McCoy is reportedly now dealing with a torn MCL and is considered "week-to-week" with a hope that he returns for Week 17.

Spencer Ware Looks to Pound Browns
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 38% owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Spencer Ware was an "emergency only" option at running back on Sunday (he registered two snaps), so Charcandrick West got to do all of the lifting. If Ware does come back into the fold for Week 16 though, Ware is the bigger guy who... Read More
Restarting the Christine Michael Hype Train
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 17% owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: I can't believe I'm finally writing this, but here we are. Christine Michael is your add out of the Seahawks backfield after he ran with purpose against a crappy Cleveland defense, going for 84 yards on 16 carries. When you rush for... Read More
Jordan Cameron a Desperation TE Play in Week 16
BALLER MOVE: Stream in Deep Leagues OWNED IN: 54% Owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Coming into the year, what fantasy owners worried most about Cameron was that he had suffered a couple concussions and might be one more away from missing an entire season or even retiring. But that hasn’t been his problem at all because... Read More
Jared Cook Can Get Your Team Cookin' Week 16
BALLER MOVE: Play in Deeper Leagues OWNED IN: 13% Owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: The St. Louis pass offense is downright offensive between its lack of talent, lack of execution and lack of creativity. But if the Rams have been doing anything right the past month-plus it has been attempting to force passes to Cook, something... Read More
Will Tye is Your Guy
BALLER MOVE: Add as TE Streamer OWNED IN: 8% Owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: It is time to jump on the fantasy bandwagon of the man with the short but sweet name.

Week 15 Running Back Depth Charts for Fantasy Football
The fantasy football semifinals are here and you'll never guess what happened in Week 14 - more running backs got injured! Who could have seen that coming?

Dorial Green-Beckham a Solid Flex Play in Week 15
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 40% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: DGB is clearly the number one receiver in Tennessee right now. He's coming off a quiet game against the Jets, but he still averaged 17.7 yards per catch in that game. What that tells me is that Marcus Mariota likes to look... Read More
Ted Ginn Jr.: Carolina's Big Play Guy
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 37% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Ted Ginn Jr. is absolutely on fire right now. The Panthers were seen as a somewhat one-dimensional team that could only beat opponents on the ground and with good defense. This narrative has changed dramatically though as we have seen Cam Newton elevate... Read More
Brandon Bolden a Sneaky RB Play
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 2% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: This has been one of the most injury-plagued and confusing seasons I've ever seen for fantasy running backs.

Tyler Kroft Next Man Up in Cinci
BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues OWNED IN: 1% Owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Can you believe Pittsburgh’s Mike Mitchell concussed another player? Can you believe Cincinnati has two tight ends named Tyler on their roster? And can you believe that Tyler Kroft could actually help someone win their fantasy league? Kroft should be the next... Read More
Zach Miller From the Streets of Chicago
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 15% Owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: There were obviously several fantasy owners who ignored my advice to pick Miller up a couple weeks ago because Martellus Bennett was still active, on the field and catching Jay Cutler’s passes. But now that Bennett has been banished to injured reserve,... Read More
Add Austin Sefarian-Jenkins for Strong Finish
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 55% Owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Hey, hey! Seferian-Jenkins stayed healthy for two games in a row!

Week 15 Tight End Waiver Wire Pickups and Adds: Austin Seferian-Jenkins, Zach Miller and Tyler Kroft
Unless you are in a fantasy football league that does not believe in a postseason and goes by cumulative point totals (which is silly), your league is in the thick of the playoffs and hopefully your squad qualified for them. This is not the time to make a boneheaded Leon Lett-like decision if you are... Read More
