WR
Main Waiver Wire Pickups
- NYJ Jermaine Kearse (1% owned) / Robby Anderson (55% owned) / Terrelle Pryor (2% owned) vs MIN
- High ankle sprain for Quincy Enunwa. Terrelle Pryor may be dealing with a groin injury. Kearse could see a big uptick in targets. Robby Anderson could also be a beneficiary. We know he has big play ability.
- ARI Christian Kirk (14% owned) vs DEN
- It seems Kirk has become the best Cardinals WR to own for fantasy football.
- TB Chris Godwin (44% owned) vs CLE
- LAC Tyrell Williams (9% owned) vs TEN (London)
- Featured in Fantasy Football Film Study: Week 7 Waiver Wire
- CHI Taylor Gabriel (22% owned) vs NE
- One of Jason’s favorite WR adds for the week.
- CLE Antonio Callaway (22% owned) @TB
- LAR Josh Reynolds (1% owned)@SF
- With Cooper Kupp out for at least a week. Reynolds should see some playing time on the amazing Rams offense.
- MIA Albert Wilson (10% owned) vs DET
- Hard to “trust” anyone on the Dolphins, but Wilson has shown big play ability.
RB
Probably Owned (but worth checking)
- PHI Corey Clement (59% owned) vs CAR
- PHI Wendell Smallwood (60% owned) vs CAR
- MIN Latavius Murray (49% owned) @NYJ
Main Waiver Wire Pickups
- ATL Ito Smith (9% owned) vs NYG
- Moved to the top of this list once Devonta Freeman was placed on IR. Of course, that happened right after we recorded the podcast.
- IND Marlon Mack (26% owned) vs BUF
- HOU D’Onta Foreman (24% owned) @JAX
- He’s a stash as he could take over as the main back for the Texans. However, returning from injury, he’s unlikely to return in Week 7.
- MIA Frank Gore (10% owned) vs DET
- He is infinite, he is Gore. Not exciting but he topped 100 yards rushing last week.
- TB Peyton Barber (33% owned) vs CLE
- As soon as we were ready for Ronald Jones to get a real shot, Barber had 16 touches in Week 6, while playing on 62.1% of snaps.
- SF Raheem Mostert (0% owned) vs LAR
- It was a surprise that Matt Breida was active due to him being called Doubtful mid-week. It was also a surprise when Raheem Mostert had 12 carries for 87 yards while Alfred Morris saw a single snap. Factor in that Matt Breida has left multiple games due to injury, Mosert could have opportunity going forward.
TE
Probably Owned (but worth checking)
- NYG Evan Engram (72% owned) @ATL
- ATL Austin Hooper (67% owned) vs NYG
Main Waiver Wire Pickups
- CIN C.J. Uzomah (33% owned) @KC
- TB O.J. Howard (54% owned) vs CLE
- PIT Vance McDonald (50% owned) BYE
- Because he’s on Bye in Week 7, he may get dropped and would be a solid TE for future weeks.
