Summary
It might not be the sexiest Waiver Wire week, but there are some RBs who could surprise us with big games like Raheem Mostert, Chris Ivory, Jalen Richard and perhaps even Ronald Jones. We discuss our top priorities (2:00) before breaking down the Amari Cooper trade (8:40). Who gains value and who loses value? Is Jordy Nelson a must-own player now? ... A sneak peak at each position (19:15) including DSTs and IDP. Then we recap NYG-ATL (26:48) and KC-CIN (34:30). Too early to drop Andy Dalton? ... Waiver Wire QBs (38:25) including Baker Mayfield and Derek Carr, RBs (41:00) including the aforementioned guys plus Doug Martin and Kenjon Barner, WRs (50:30) including Geronimo Allison and Danny Amendola, TEs (54:41) including C.J. Uzomah and Vance McDonald, plus DSTs and Kickers at the end of the show ... Your emails at fantasyfootball@cbsi.com
