Jared Cook (TE, STL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in PPR Leagues as Bye Week / Injury Replacement

ANALYSIS: With a weak receiving corps in St. Louis, Jared Cook is a guy who will get a lot of looks from rookie quarterback Austin Davis. If you are a Jimmy Graham owner looking for a backup, Cook could be the answer this week. While a tough matchup against the San Francisco linebackers may prevent him from having any true appeal in standard leagues, he is likely to garner enough touches to earn value in PPR leagues. Cook has also seen his touchdown total increase each year he has been in the league, so he is a strong bet to find the end zone sooner rather than later. At only 27% owned in Yahoo! leagues, Cook could be on the rise, and PPR owners looking for a backup should jump on the chance to grab him before the Rams play on Monday night.
