Eli Manning (QB, NYG) - Week 7 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 2-QB Leagues

OWNED IN: 22% of Leagues

ANALYSIS: If you're a Giants fan, owner of New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning, or simply follow football closely enough to know that Manning has looked horrible for most of the year, suggesting him as a waiver wire pickup seems like a questionable call. The fact remains that the Giants do have some of the most talented skill players in the league and should get Evan Engram back.

The real appeal here is the matchup with the Falcons, who are a bottom-three pass defense in all respects and just gave up 29 points and 389 passing yards to the Bucs. Manning is averaging 277 yards per game but has just six TD in six games. He should be more appealing for those looking for a safe floor than a big game, as he's less risky than Bortles or Trubisky.
