IDP Leagues - Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 2
I woke up on a bright Monday morning in a cabin adorned with photos of Tibetan people and locations, prayer flags, and masks. I pulled out my phone and pulled up the Red Zone Network. Although I was lying in a sleeping bag on a wooden bed under a wool blanket, I couldn't have been... Read More

Donovan Peoples-Jones (WR, CLE) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 2
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 4% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It was hard to get a read on the Browns passing game in Week 1. On one hand, the team threw for the second-fewest yards in the league in Week 1 with 138. On the other hand, the team was 16th in pass... Read More

Jarvis Landry (WR, NO) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 2
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED IN: 42% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Are we still here with Jarvis Landry? Really, in the year 2022 of our Lord? Jesus Christ. Landry, of course, is seemingly never going to be properly rated judging by that being the case for the past 10 or 15 or... Read More
Jamaal Williams (RB, DET) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 2
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 47% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Two players from the Detroit Lions finished Week 1 inside the top-12 at their respective position: WR Amon-Ra St-Brown and RB D'Andre Swift (top-3 pending MNF). So, what makes Jamaal Williams so appealing as to have him featured in the WW weekly... Read More
Khalil Herbert (RB, CHI) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 2
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 41% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Whether this game was a fluke or not, you'd be smart adding Khalil Herbert to your roster before other fantasy GMs catch up and you miss on the opportunity. The consensus opinion is and has always been that of David Montgomery being... Read More
Devin Duvernay (WR, BAL) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 2
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 31% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It is still early (very early, probably) to come up with a definitive conclusion about who's who in the Ravens offense. Devin Duvernay, if only for the lack of other viable options, seems to have found a role as the WR2 of... Read More
Zay Jones (WR, JAC) - Fantasy Football Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED IN: 12% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Zay Jones is an intriguing waiver wire target in deep leagues heading into Week 2. Christian Kirk was the team's leading receiver just as everyone expected, but it was Zay Jones who emerged as the team's No. 2... Read More
Carson Wentz (QB, WAS) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 2
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 12% of Leagues ANALYSIS: This feels like Carson Wentz was waiting all the summer only to finally did this on his very purpose just to make us all feel bad. Not me, as I've rated Wentz a bit above the consensus opinion for all of his... Read More
Zack Moss (RB, BUF) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 2
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 7% of Leagues ANALYSIS: I have to assume when the Bills drafted James Cook with a second-round pick they definitely did not envision what happened to the rookie in his first game--actually first snap--as a pro: one snap played, one fumbled, and just one more snap... Read More
Robbie Anderson (WR, CAR) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 2
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED IN: 12% of Leagues ANALYSIS: He teased his retirement. He laughed at the idea of having Baker Mayfield as his quarterback. He did all of that, then probably some more, scared the hell out of all fantasy GMs, and when Week 1 arrived all Robbie Anderson... Read More
Marcus Mariota (QB, ATL) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 2
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 9% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The Saints rallied, Atlanta lost, and Marcus Mariota played mediocre-to-good football. Nothing to be too surprised about, but something to exploit this weekend ahead of the Week 2 slate of games if you decided you'd stream your starter at the quarterback position.... Read More
Jamal Adams Suffered "Torn Quad"
Seattle Seahawks safety Jamal Adams (quadriceps) was forced to exit early in Monday's matchup with the Denver Broncos.

Jameis Winston (QB, NO) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 2
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 46% of Leagues ANALYSIS: I don't have an explanation for Jameis Winston's "low" rostership. Yes, he's nearing a fifty-fifty proposition, but that's still low to my eyes. Winston, as wild as he's been career-wise and as much criticism as he's endured, has always performed for his...

Travis Etienne And James Robinson Split Snaps In Week 1
Jacksonville Jaguars running backs Travis Etienne and James Robinson are one of the backfield battles to monitor.

George Kittle Hopeful To Practice On Wednesday
San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle (groin) missed Sunday's game against the Bears. The team seemed optimistic that the 28-year-old would suit up, further evidenced by head coach Kyle Shanahan's comment about his availability, "that's why he made the trip." Although he did not play in Week 1, there is hope for a Week... Read More
Rondale Moore Will Test Hamstring On Wednesday
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Rondale Moore (hamstring) did not play in Sunday's game against the Chiefs.

Despite an underwhelming rookie season, finishing with... Read More
Is Devin Duvernay A Good Fantasy Football Pickup for Week 2? Waiver Wire Outlook
The Baltimore Ravens entered 2022 with a notable hole at the No. 2 wide receiver spot. After Week 1, we might have some idea of who will fill that hole. Third-year receiver Devin Duvernay found the end zone twice in the team's Week 1 win over the New York Jets. Is this a sign of... Read More
Broncos Defense Disappoints Against Seattle
The Denver Broncos defense/special teams unit was a popular streaming choice in fantasy football in Week 1 against the Seattle Seahawks and quarterback Geno Smith, but they fell flat in a 17-16 loss on Monday night.

Brandon McManus Has Busy Night In Week 1
Denver Broncos kicker Brandon McManus made three of his four field-goal attempts and his only extra-point try in the team's Week 1 loss to the Seattle Seahawks on Monday night. His only miss was for the win late in the fourth quarter from 64 yards out when the Broncos curiously decided to kick the deep... Read More
KJ Hamler Targeted Just Once In Loss To Seahawks
Denver Broncos wide receiver KJ Hamler was barely seen in the season-opening loss to the Seattle Seahawks in Week 1 on Monday night. He was only targeted once in the game and hauled it in, but he was out of bounds. Hamler came into this game questionable with knee and hip injuries -- he suffered... Read More

Jerry Jeudy Posts Over 100 Yards, TD In Loss To Seattle
Denver Broncos wide receiver Jerry Jeudy had a nice first game in the team's 17-16 Week 1 loss to the Seattle Seahawks on Monday night. Jeudy caught four of his seven targets on the night for a team-high 102 yards and their only touchdown. He connected with quarterback Russell Wilson on a 67-yard strike when... Read More
