In Week 1, Davis was the leader in snaps and routes run. The WR2 role is much closer between Corey Davis, Garrett Wilson, and Braxton Berrios. Corey Davis, New York Jets (6% rostered)Įlijah Moore was the clear WR1 for the Jets. He’s a priority waiver wire pickup this week. In higher volume games, Anderson could be a reliable starter. The Panthers won’t always be able to get away with throwing under 30 times, but Anderson put up WR1 numbers this week. That won’t be the norm, but Anderson is the clear WR2 on this team. Anderson actually out-targeted Moore 7 to 4. Moore and Robbie Anderson played the exact same number of snaps and ran the exact same number of routes. Top waiver wire pickups in Week 2 | Wide receivers Robbie Anderson, Carolina Panthers (10% rostered)ĭ.J. Wilson may be an uninspiring talent, but he can produce RB2 numbers with volume in a run-heavy offense. Every starting RB in the NFL should be rostered. While Mitchell is out, it should be Wilson as the primary back. Mitchell took a hard hit to his knee and appeared to suffer an MCL sprain. Elijah Mitchell is the unquestioned starter, but when he’s out, Jeff Wilson is the unquestioned starter.

The Steelers don’t exactly have a great offensive line or a great offense in general, but any running back likely to see 15 touches a game is worth rostering. Mike Tomlin typically uses one back heavily. Warren played every snap at running back in overtime. The severity of Harris’ injury is currently unknown, but it’s reportedly “not a big deal.” Nevertheless, in the event there’s any chance Harris will miss time, Jaylen Warren is a must-add. Najee Harris hurt his leg or foot at the very end of regulation in the Steelers’ overtime win against the Bengals. Jaylen Warren, Pittsburgh Steelers (4% rostered) Burkhead looks like a top-36 fantasy back. He saw a whopping eight targets in a game where the Texans never faced negative game script. Any running back getting that level of usage needs to be rostered.Įven more encouraging is Burkhead’s passing game usage. ![]() 32-year-old Rex Burkhead played 72% of the offensive snaps and touched the ball 19 times. Well, so much for Dameon Pierce being the starter. Top waiver wire pickups in Week 2 | Running backs Rex Burkhead, Houston Texans (12% rostered) Fantasy managers unimpressed by their quarterback situation can look to Mariota for a nice floor. Given the Falcons’ less-than-stellar offense, I don’t foresee Mariota’s rushing slowing down anytime soon. Mariota took off 12 times for 72 yards and a score. He still managed to get to nearly 20 fantasy points. Marcus Mariota threw for just 215 yards and zero touchdowns. Yet another lesson in the value of rushing.
