2020 Fantasy Football Waiver Wire by NFL Position

ALL RB - WR - TE - QB - DEF

Tre'Quan Smith (WR, NO) - Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 15% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Nobody was expecting a lot from Tre'Quan Smith came Week 1 and that is precisely what he did, a bunch of nothing. Smith was targeted just once, and although the caught that lone pass he finished with just four yards even though he... Read More Antonio Losada 1 day ago

Devonta Freeman (RB, FA) - Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 16% of Leagues ANALYSIS: This might be the only time I have written a waiver wire post about a still-available free agent. That's correct. Freeman is still out there without a signed contract and could end anywhere... or nowhere. That being said, the latest news related to... Read More Antonio Losada 1 day ago

Jeff Wilson Jr. (RB, SF) - Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 16+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 0% of Leagues ANALYSIS: You might be wondering if I should be put in a mental health center. I know about it, you don't have to hide your thoughts. Now, bear with me and let me explain. San Francisco entered Week 2 with two very good and... Read More Antonio Losada 2 days ago

Myles Gaskin (RB, MIA) - Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 14% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Forget about Jordan Howard. Forget about Matt Breida. Raise your hand to hail Miami Dolphins leading-back Myles Gaskin. Who would have thought... After getting the former two tailbacks this past offseason, Miami is running everything through second-year man Myles Gaskin this season. The... Read More Antonio Losada 2 days ago

Mike Davis (RB, CAR) - Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 1% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Looking at Carolina's fantasy numbers through two weeks of play you'll get it quickly: it's Christian McCaffrey, and then (maybe) come the rest. CMC tallies read 28.4 and 24.8 PPR points in back-to-back weeks. He reached the latter mark in a game that he... Read More Antonio Losada 2 days ago

Jordan Akins (TE, HOU) - Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 2% of Leagues ANALYSIS: They called a man crazy for recommending rostering Jordan Akins after his Week 1 performance. Now, they are calling him a visionary. Thank you, thank you, but I had this feeling I was going to be right. Sure, Akins W1 stats were the... Read More Antonio Losada 2 days ago

Jordan Reed (TE, SF) - Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED: 6% of Leagues ANALYSIS: When you have a stud at the tight end position such as San Francisco does (George Kittle), you don't really care about the rest of the personnel there. Unless your starting weapon goes down injured, which is exactly what happened this weekend.... Read More Antonio Losada 2 days ago

Logan Thomas (TE, WAS) - Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED: 32% of Leagues ANALYSIS: After four years in the league providing little production, it looked like Logan Thomas had finally found his mojo to kick 2020 off. Thomas logged 52 snaps in Week 1, was targeted a nice eight times, and hauled in half of those... Read More Antonio Losada 2 days ago

Mo Alie-Cox (TE, IND) - Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 1% of Leagues ANALYSIS: With Jack Doyle being the TE1 of a team featuring a bunch of more-than-capable rushers and a couple of good receivers at least, it makes sense to find Mo Alie-Cox available in virtually every league. Doyle, though, missed Week 2 injured, and that... Read More Antonio Losada 2 days ago

Dalton Schultz (TE, DAL) - Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED: 2% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Had I told you the name "Dalton" and asked about who do you think had a good game for the Cowboys in Week 2, odds are you responded "Andy". Far from real, though. It was Shultz, TE Dalton Schultz, who thrived with... Read More Antonio Losada 2 days ago

Michael Pittman Jr. (WR, IND) - Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED: 15% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The first reactions to Sunday's Parris Campbell injury were all pointing toward a torn ACL. Good for him and the Colts, it looks like those early impressions were mostly wrong and he avoided such a season-ending fate. Even with that, and seeing... Read More Antonio Losada 2 days ago

Andy Isabella (WR, ARI) - Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 16+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 0% of Leagues ANALYSIS: At least at this point of the season, don't consider adding Isabella unless you can stash him or you happen to play in a super-deep league. It mostly comes down to his usage going forward and seeing how things develop between Arizona's offense... Read More Antonio Losada 2 days ago

Marquez Valdes-Scantling (WR, GB) - Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 36% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Aaron Rodgers had a fantastic start to the season in Week 1 passing for a monster 364 yards and four touchdowns. Throwing 44 passes, it made sense to find all of Green Bay's wideouts getting at least four targets each and racking up... Read More Antonio Losada 2 days ago

Darnell Mooney (WR, CHI) - Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 16+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 0% of Leagues ANALYSIS: You won't find Mooney-talk around often. While that is reasonable to a certain extent, it is to another. Let me explain. Mooney has only logged six targets through Week 2, but he's caught all of them for 74 combined yards and a touchdown.... Read More Antonio Losada 2 days ago

Russell Gage (WR, ATL) - Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 21% of Leagues ANALYSIS: I have to admit that two things surprised me last week. The first one was that Gage joined the two of Julio Jones and Calvin Ridley in Atlanta's offense in terms of targets (12 each). The second one was to see how many... Read More Antonio Losada 2 days ago

Frank Gore (RB, NYJ) - Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 14% of Leagues ANALYSIS: 37-year-old New York Jets running back Frank Gore was the team's primary ball-carrier in Week 2, rushing the ball 21 times for 63 yards. Rookie La'Mical Perine was the only other running back on the team to earn multiple carries as he rushed... Read More Andrew Ericksen 2 days ago

N'Keal Harry (WR, NE) - Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 26% of Leagues ANALYSIS: New England Patriots wide receiver N'Keal Harry reeled in eight of his 12 targets for 72 yards in Week 2 against the Seattle Seahawks. It was the most productive game in the young career of the 2019 1st round pick and could be... Read More Andrew Ericksen 2 days ago

Chris Thompson (RB, JAX) - Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED: 23% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Jacksonville Jaguars running back Chris Thompson saw his role increase in Week 2 against the Tennessee Titans. Thompson caught three of his four targets for 20 yards and a touchdown and also added two carries for seven yards in the game. James... Read More Andrew Ericksen 2 days ago

Damien Harris (RB, NE) - Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 26% of Leagues ANALYSIS: There's been no standout New England Patriots running back through two weeks of the season and that makes second-year back Damien Harris (hand) a tremendous waiver wire add ahead of Week 3. Harris suffered a hand injury in training camp and was placed... Read More Andrew Ericksen 2 days ago

Gardner Minshew II (QB, JAX) - Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 31% of Leagues ANALYSIS: I already wrote about Minshew last week, and here I am again introducing you to the Minshewmania once more, just in case you missed it the last time. See, I get the critics dropped on Minshew for his fourth-quarter interception that sealed the... Read More Antonio Losada 2 days ago

Drew Sample (TE, CIN) - Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED: 1% of Leagues ANALYSIS: This is the ultimate flier of waiver wire pickups. I wouldn't blame you if you hadn't heard Drew Sample's name prior to this week, but here we are. C.J. Uzomah's, the Bengals TE1, fell down to an Achilles injury in the fourth... Read More Antonio Losada 2 days ago

Tee Higgins (WR, CIN) - Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 3% of Leagues ANALYSIS: While Higgins fell one pick short of becoming a first-round draftee this past draft, the Bengals spent the 33rd-overall selection on the Clemson product. You don't waste such a high pick on someone you don't trust, so what we saw on Week 1... Read More Antonio Losada 2 days ago

Baker Mayfield (QB, CLE) - Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues ROSTERED: 48% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Baker Mayfield barely made it to my weekly waiver wire posts, but his under-50% rostered rate was enough for me to consider writing about him. Mayfield is far from an unknown asset, that's right, but it doesn't make much sense to still find him... Read More Antonio Losada 2 days ago

Rex Burkhead (RB, NE) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED: 4% of Leagues ANALYSIS: When Rex Burkhead left the Cincinnati Bengals and signed on with the New England Patriots, those familiar with the Nebraska alum could see for miles away that he would be a great fit in the Tom Brady-led offense. Four years and a... Read More RotoBrady 5 days ago

Scotty Miller (WR, TB) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED: 4% of Leagues ANALYSIS: We have seen only a limited sample of Scotty Miller as an NFL wide receiver since the start of 2019 following his standout career at Bowling Green State, but with Tom Brady under center in Tampa Bay and a hodgepodge of question-mark-players... Read More RotoBrady 5 days ago

Logan Thomas (TE, WAS) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 1% of Leagues ANALYSIS: At 6-6 and 250 pounds, Logan Thomas definitely has a build that will prove useful in practically anything he could be assigned to do on the football field. The 29-year-old product of Virginia Tech was a three-year starter at quarterback, and while he... Read More RotoBrady 6 days ago

Nyheim Hines (RB, IND) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in All PPR Leagues ROSTERED: 16% of Leagues ANALYSIS: First carry from a Colts' rusher this season: Marlon Mack. First touchdown from a Colts' rusher: Nyheim Hines. No Jonathan Taylor at sight to start Week 1's game with the proven Mack taking on the rushing duties and Hines doing so on the... Read More Antonio Losada 6 days ago

Benny Snell Jr. (RB, PIT) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues ROSTERED: 16% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The Pittsburgh Steelers welcomed Ben Roethlisberger back until a virtual year off the field... but at the same time they had to say goodbye to RB James Conner just two quarters into the season. Bad for the rushing game, right? Wrong. Enter Benny Snell... Read More Antonio Losada 7 days ago

Joshua Kelley (RB, LAC) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues ROSTERED: 11% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Los Angeles Chargers rookie running back Joshua Kelley had an extremely promising NFL debut this past week, carrying the ball 12 times for 60 yards against the Cincinnati Bengals. Kelley entered the game in a battle with Justin Jackson (quad) for the No. 2... Read More Andrew Ericksen 7 days ago

Malcolm Brown (RB, LAR) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues ROSTERED: 24% of Leagues ANALYSIS: More than likely, there was just one running back from the Los Angeles Rams that was drafted in your fantasy football leagues, Cam Akers. In Week 1 against the Cowboys, we saw the Rams utilize Malcolm Brown the most, however. He is the veteran... Read More Aaron Schillinger 1 week ago

Parris Campbell (WR, IND) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 22% of Leagues ANALYSIS: If you watched the Colts game in Week 1, you definitely noticed how involved Parris Campbell was on this offense. He saw nine targets and caught six of them for 71 yards. TY Hilton also saw nine targets, which was tied for the... Read More Aaron Schillinger 1 week ago

Laviska Shenault Jr. (WR, JAX) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED: 12% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Jacksonville Jaguars rookie wide receiver Laviska Shenault Jr. proved to be one of the top pass-catching options for quarterback Gardner Minshew II in Week 1 against the Indianapolis Colts. Shenault was targeted four times in the game and caught three passes for... Read More Andrew Ericksen 1 week ago

Peyton Barber (RB, WAS) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 2% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Washington Football Team running back Peyton Barber served as the team's primary ball-carrier in Week 1 against the Philadelphia Eagles. Barber received 17 of the team's 29 hand-offs and rushed for 29 yards and two touchdowns. Antonio Gibson was second on the team... Read More Andrew Ericksen 1 week ago

Chase Edmonds (RB, ARI) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 40% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Arizona Cardinals running back Chase Edmonds was a big offensive spark for the team in their Week 1 victory over the San Francisco 49ers. Edmonds carried the ball six times for 26 yards and caught three passes for 19 yards and a touchdown... Read More Andrew Ericksen 1 week ago

Jerick McKinnon (RB, SF) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED: 11% of Leagues ANALYSIS: San Francisco 49ers running back Jerick McKinnon had a promising, long-awaited debut for the team in Week 1. McKinnon carried the ball three times for 24 yards and reeled in three catches for 20 yards and a touchdown on five targets. McKinnon... Read More Andrew Ericksen 1 week ago

Russell Gage (WR, ATL) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues ROSTERED: 1% of Leagues ANALYSIS: I knew Matt Ryan was capable of doing things. What I didn't know was that Ryan, and Atlanta Falcons' receivers, were capable of doing these things. All of Julio Jones, Calvin Ridley, and Russell Gage finished Week 1 with 114+ yards each, helping Ryan's 450-yard (!)... Read More Antonio Losada 1 week ago

Gardner Minshew II (QB, JAX) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 22% of Leagues ANALYSIS: All hail the 'stache! Garden Minshew II took the game just where he left him last season, put on the superhero suit again, and completed a masterpiece to the tune of completing 19 of 20 attempts for 173 yards, 3 TDs, and no... Read More Antonio Losada 1 week ago

Teddy Bridgewater (QB, CAR) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 2QB Leagues ROSTERED: 22% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Teddy B finished Week 1 as the QB15 through Sunday's games and top-34 player overall in PPR leagues. More than that, and even although you might not believe what I'm about to say: Bridgewater completed 22 of 34 attempts for 270 yards, the ninth-highest... Read More Antonio Losada 1 week ago

Willie Snead IV (WR, BAL) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED: 1% of Leagues ANALYSIS: We all know the top-three guys walking around Baltimore these days, one per skill position: TE Mark Andrews, WR Marquise Brown, and RB Mark Ingram. Well, while Andrews was the best Raven in Week 1, it turns out that both Ingram and... Read More Antonio Losada 1 week ago

Kirk Cousins (QB, MIN) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 2QB Leagues ROSTERED: 34% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It is hard to trust Kirk Cousins as a weekly QB1 if only because Minnesota should be a run-first team. Last season, the Vikings set some low-volume records on the passing front through the first weeks of the year, and that shouldn't change all... Read More Antonio Losada 1 week ago

Adrian Peterson (RB, DET) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 45% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The talk regarding Detroit's backfield during the offseason was focused on its two prime assets: Kerryon Johnson and rookie D'Andre Swift. Even after adding uber-veteran Adrian Peterson from Washington in time for the start of the season, it never made much sense to... Read More Antonio Losada 1 week ago

Jimmy Graham (TE, CHI) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED: 5% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Last season, playing for Green Bay, Jimmy Graham's fantasy outcomes were all over the table. He had days of multiple targets and putrid scores, and others in which just a few passes allowed him to rack up goodies in bunches. For any... Read More Antonio Losada 1 week ago

O.J. Howard (TE, TB) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 17% of Leagues ANALYSIS: I don't think there is any need to introduce O.J. Howard to you by talking about his past seasons here. That is already a well-known story and one we don't want to remember, but rather forget as soon as possible. Just to put... Read More Antonio Losada 1 week ago

N'Keal Harry (WR, NE) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ PPR Team Leagues ROSTERED: 32% of Leagues ANALYSIS: I must admit that I was really high on N'Keal Harry last season, in his rookie year and the last with QB Tom Brady playing for the Patriots. And what did Harry do? Let me know, that is. Over his seven played... Read More Antonio Losada 1 week ago

Preston Williams (WR, MIA) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 38% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Some fantasy GMs will check the Week 1 fantasy-point leaderboard and deem Williams as a bust and not worth waiver wire addition. And they will be super wrong with that approach. Don't be that guy, please. First of all, Miami faced New England... Read More Antonio Losada 1 week ago

Larry Fitzgerald (WR, ARI) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED: 23% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The Cardinals kicked off the 2020 season finishing their Week 1 game this close to putting two players (with Monday's games still to be played) in the top-10 of PPR leaderboards. QB Kyler Murray racked up 29.3 and WR DeAndre Hopkins reached 29.1... Read More Antonio Losada 1 week ago

Danny Amendola (WR, DET) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED: 2% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Danny Amendola has me excited. Actually, the Lions as a whole have me excited. Matthew Stafford is back healthy and although he only completed 24 of his 42 pass attempts he still threw for 297 yards, of which 81 came from Amendola's... Read More Antonio Losada 1 week ago

Allen Lazard (WR, GB) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 42% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Only one week into the season, sure, but I am already celebrating Aaron Rodgers getting back to his 2011 vibes! Yay! This is not about Green Bay's quarterback, though. It is about who seems to have solidified himself as the Packers no. 2... Read More Antonio Losada 1 week ago

Sammy Watkins (WR, KC) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues ROSTERED: 41% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It might sound ridiculous, and it probably is, but it wouldn't be too crazy to say Watkins may be already past his peak this year after having a great Week 1 performance. If you remember what happened last season, you'd understand what I'm talking... Read More Antonio Losada 1 week ago
