Willis McGahee (RB, CLE) - Waiver Wire Pickups

Analysis: Surprisingly still available in most leagues, McGahee finally seems to have learned his new offense enough to be effective and handle the load. In a year with so few reliable RB situations, Old Man McGahee is worth owning as the feature back in Cleveland. He put up a respectable line in his third week of action against Buffalo, totalling 72 yards on 26 carries. His YPC still leaves room for improvement, but this should increase as his comfort level with his new O-line raises. Regardless, the sheer volume of carries he stands to receive leaves Willis, who turns 32 this month, as a solid flex option or bye-week fill-in, especially against the suspect Detroit rushing defense.
