Chris Thompson (RB, WAS) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14- and 16-Team Leagues

OWNED IN: 3% Fleaflicker

ANALYSIS: Chris Thompson was questionable for Week 1 with a bum shoulder, but finally came off the injury report days before the season opener. He played the role of third-down back and even found the end zone. Rob Kelley didn't see the field despite a solid preseason, but Jay Gruden may be choosing experience over potential early on. Thompson, a fourth-year veteran, produced 240 receiving and 216 rushing yards last season and will probably wind up with similar numbers if he holds the same role this season. Thompson is currently limited to deep PPR league value, but should be next up if Matt Jones gets injured.
