Alex Smith (QB, KC) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues / Streamer for Week 7

Owned in 50% of Fleaflicker leagues

ANALYSIS: Okay, so he's already owned in 50% of leagues. But that still doesn't mean he should be sitting on the waiver wire in 50% of leagues. Two great signs point to Smith being your quarterback stream of the week. First, I love QBs coming off the bye. Derek Carr and Ryan Tannehill backed that up this week, and none of the seven QBs coming off a bye have scored below 17 points yet. The second reason I like Smith this week is that though the Chargers have been tough, they just let Derek Carr throw on them all day, to the tune of a career-high 25 points. The Chargers will be hungry to improve on that performance, but I'm going to side with Alex Smith and his extra time to prepare. Feel free to grab him off the Week 7 waiver wire if you're hurting at quarterback, or want to add some depth to your team.
