Marquez Valdes-Scantling (WR, GB) - Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues

OWNED IN: 6% of Leagues

ANALYSIS: The debate for the WR2 in Green Bay all off-season was between Randall Cobb and Geronimo Allison, but a dark horse candidate may have emerged. After injuries to Cobb and Allison, Marquez Valdes-Scantling has stepped up the past three games. Since Week 5, Valdes-Scantling has 12 catches on 21 targets for 216 yards and two touchdowns.

We wrote about Valdes-Scantling in the pre-season as the favorite of the rookie wide receivers in Green Bay to breakthrough and make an impact in 2018. His is an athlete who can make some serious plays with the ball in his hands. He could very well be the WR2 in Green Bay the rest of the season and should be added in deeper leagues and teams dealing with depth issues.
