BALLER MOVE: Add in leagues 12+ teams
Owned in 63% of Fleaflicker Leagues
ANALYSIS: Coming into this season Carson Palmer was highlighted as a sleeper QB pick. In week 1 Palmer showed right away that those who predicted that were correct (304 yards 2 TDs 0 Int). Sadly Palmer missed the next 3 games due to a rare nerve injury and during that time there was uncertainly when Palmer would return. In wake of that news many owners dropped Palmer for other waiver pickup options.
To the surprise of many people (including his own coach) Palmer returned week 6 and picked up right where he started in week 1 with a solid game (250 yards 2 TDs 0 Int). Now that Palmer has played two weeks in a row with no signs of his injury coming back he makes a fantastic QB waiver wire pickup going forward. With his bye week now passed and a ripe matchup vs the Eagles in week 8 (giving up the 5th most points to opposing QBs) Palmer is a must add in 2 QB leagues or in leagues with 12+ teams. If you are in a 10 team league and have a deeper bench Palmer is a nice stash.
