Bryce Brown (RB, PHI) - Waiver Wire Pickups

Analysis: If you can spare the bench space, there are few players with more potential upside than Bryce Brown. I mentioned him earlier in the season, but as he is still available in about two-thirds of leagues, I feel strongly enough about him to repeat it. Chip Kelly loves to run the football. The Eagles O-line is very impressive. Shady McCoy has failed to play a full season as a feature back, missing games in all but his rookie season. Should McCoy miss time, which is no stretch considering his workload and style of play, Bryce Brown could easily be a top-five RB in his stead. McCoy is elite, but Brown is no slouch, and would likely be the starting RB on most teams in the NFL. If you need a RB this week, Bryce isn’t your guy. But if you have space for a gamble on a potential fantasy savior, add Brown immediately.
