Andy Dalton (QB, CIN) - Week 1 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues

OWNED IN: 28% of Leagues

ANALYSIS: Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton is surrounded by a steady stud in A.J. Green, an upstart RB in Joe Mixon, a buzzy “sleeper” in John Ross and Tyler Eifert is currently healthy, knock on wood. Where does this leave Dalton?

Well, in our opinion, pretty darn good shape! However, most folks do not see it that way moving forward. He is owned in the same amount of leagues as fellow low-owned QB with great weapons Eli Manning. It is worth noting that many experts rank Dalton as a top-12 QB for Week 1 against the Colts in Indy’s dome, and while I have him as my QB18 since he does not contribute with the wheels, I still respect the long-term upside if his skill players meet their potential.
