Logan Thomas - Week 13 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks
Bid Aggressively on DeAngelo Williams
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 54% Owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: He's already owned in most leagues, but if you're in one where he isn't, he has to be owned now. During the two weeks Bell was out, Williams somehow managed to be amongst the top fantasy running backs and is on his... Read More
Orleans Darkwa a Not So Dark Horse RB Pickup
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 16% Owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Orleans Darkwa would leave the game early on against the Saints, but once again he looked like a good running back on the NFL field. I'd be more than willing to take Darkwa on most rosters I have and hope that he... Read More
Could David Cobb Give Your Team a Titanic Boost?
BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues OWNED IN: 39% Owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: We're getting closer to the time of the season where Cobb returns and carries everyone into the promise land of the playoffs. Nah, not really. But he's going to likely do better than any of the current backs are playing in Tennessee.... Read More
Ray Rice a Good Stash for Desperate Owners?
BALLER MOVE: Speculative Add in Deep Leagues OWNED IN: 7% Owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Look, no one's expecting him to get signed. I'm not going to tell you to drop a player for him either but if you've got the spot open why not? Le'Veon Bell, Matt Forte, and even Reggie Bush's injury opens up the need for... Read More
Jeremy Langford a Top Tier Injury Replacement
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 10% Owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Matt Forte is reportedly dealing with an MCL injury, meaning Langford becomes the next man up. Langford was an elusive back in college who showed some good spurts of vision and had some receiving skills to boot. In my notes, I felt... Read More

Week 8 Running Back Depth Charts for Fantasy Football
The NFL action in Week 7 was lacking something. What could it have been?... Oh! Three of the best five teams in the NFL didn't play. There were plenty of meaningless games, head-scratching blowouts, and devastating injuries in Week 7, leading to a ton of garbage time yardage and backups getting the chance to shine. Four...

Ladarius 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... Read More
Brandon 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... Read More
Stay 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.

Michael Crabtree to Benefit from Raiders' Air Attack
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 61% owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Michael Crabtree deserves to be one of the hottest names on the waiver wire, but unfortunately, 61 percent of people may have beaten you to the punch. The Oakland Raiders have no problem airing it out quite a bit, and rookie Amari... Read More
Has Michael Floyd Bounced Back?
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 34% owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: After the first three weeks of the 2015 season, if you had told me that I'd be featuring Michael Floyd in a wide receiver waive wire article, I would have called you crazy. Floyd had exactly two catches for 30 yards... Read More
FAAB Auction Bidding - Week 8 NFL Waiver Wire Targets
Week 7 was relatively quiet outside of Arian Foster being lost for the year, and even his replacements aren't really enticing. This week seems to be more about reminders from players who have played well before, but may be available due to their own bye weeks or coming back from an injury. Buffalo, Jacksonville, Philadelphia, and... Read More
Tight Ends Waiver Wire: Week 8 Pickups and Adds
Fantasy owners are going to be without Washington’s Jordan Reed, Buffalo’s Charles Clay, Jacksonville’s Julius Thomas and Philadelphia’s Zach Ertz this week. That’s a lot of receptions, yards and touchdowns to lose as fantasy teams enter the meat of their seasons. There is variety when it comes to some of the available tight ends on... Read More
Feeling Lucky? Roll With Hoyer in Week 8
BALLER MOVE: Start as Bye Week Replacement OWNED IN: 21% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: How could anyone see the result of this game and want to gamble on Hoyer putting up fantasy points again!? Well, I am apparently foolish enough to do so. With it being the heart of the bye week period, there are... Read More
Get Tricky and Pick Up Run DMC
BALLER MOVE: Add in all Leagues OWNED IN: 55% Owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: With Joseph Randle suffering a lower back injury, it was Darren McFadden who stepped in instead of Christine Michael. Although I still want to own the lottery ticket, if you're in a league where McFadden is on the waivers, he's a lottery... Read More

Week 7 Running Back Depth Charts for Fantasy Football
Week 6 was odd. There's no other way to put it. Every RB in the AFC East (a division with historically poor running back play over the years) had a magnificent performance and seem poised for future success as well. On the contrary, Every back in the AFC West, which has purported impressive RB play... Read More
Tight Ends Waiver Wire: Week 7 Pickups and Adds
No Tyler Eifert, no Martellus Bennett, no Richard Rodgers…no problem? Four more teams are on bye this week, so fantasy owners are scrambling like Russell Wilson to fill in their blanks at the tight end position. And with Eifert (342 yards, six TD), Bennett (292 yards, two TD) and Rodgers (189, two TD) having the... Read More
FAAB Auction Bidding - Week 7 NFL Waiver Wire Targets
Week 6 saw quite a few notable players go down and miss some action, causing other guys to rack up some numbers that might be a genuine indicator of future output, or misleading. We saw Jeremy Maclin (concussion), Keenan Allen (hip), Sammy Watkins (ankle), Allen Robinson (knee), and others leave their games early. This meant... Read More
Derek Carr Has Top 10 Potential in Week 7
BALLER MOVE: Add as Bye Week Fill-In OWNED IN: 43% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Carr is probably only eligible to be written about in this column for one week.

Can You Dig Stefon Diggs (WR, MIN)?
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 8% Owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: In two games starting for the Charles Johnson-less Vikings, Stefon Diggs has amassed 13 receptions for 216 yards. Those numbers might not be exciting, but the consistent usage and high yardage is promising. Diggs might not have the talent on his own... Read More
James Starks a Must-Add This Week & Beyond
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 20% Owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Even without this big game from Starks, only 20% ownership is insanely low for the handcuff of a RB that plays on one of the best offenses in the NFL. He's literally one injury away from being an RB1. Week 6 was... Read More

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 18% owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: With Breshad Perriman out indefinitely and Steve Smith Sr. out with his rib injury, Kamar Aiken caught four balls on nine targets for 78 yards in week 5.

Time to Buy In on Rodgers to Rodgers Connection
BALLER MOVE: FAAB Bid: $4 - 6 OWNED IN: 42% owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Richard Rodgers is the only real tight end the Packers have left, and it's becoming clear that Aaron Rodgers does notice Richard Rodgers out there as the weeks go along. While Rodgers didn't find the end zone in Week 5, he... Read More
Three's Not a Crowd For Jamison Crowder
BALLER MOVE: FAAB Bid: $1 - 2 OWNED IN: 6% owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: DeSean Jackson returning is going to cut into Jamison Crowder's snaps, but Washington can't be too picky when it comes to having someone effective on the offensive end. DeSean Jackson and Pierre Garcon will be good for them, but with Jordan Reed... Read More
Thomas Rawls a Nice Stash For Rest of Season
BALLER MOVE: FAAB Bid: $6 - 10 / Lynch Owner: $16 - 20 OWNED IN: 30% owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: With Marshawn Lynch out in Week 5, Thomas Rawls was "the guy" again for Seattle over the veteran Fred Jackson.

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep 12 Team Leagues; FAAB Bid: $6 - 8 OWNED IN: 39% owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Brandon LaFell is eligible to return from the PUP list in Week 7, and while that's a tough draw against the Jets, you are going to want to get ahead of the curve on this one... Read More
Week 5 NFL Recap: Injuries, Breakout Performers & Game by Game Analysis
Fantasy aside, the fifth week of NFL action featured some entertaining match-ups that should make us all appreciate the game of football in general.
