Rashid Shaheed (WR, NO) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 2

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 17% of Leagues ANALYSIS: I'm not sure the Saints and quarterback Derek Carr can sustain three fantasy-relevant wide receivers, but Rashid Shaheed's Week 1 performance and the injury concerns that always accompany Michael Thomas mean that he should be on your radar.

Jakobi Meyers (WR, LV) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 2

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 50% of Leagues ANALYSIS: This is one of the toughest adds to write about. Jakobi Meyers (concussion) was really, really good in Week 1.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPRLeagues ROSTERED IN: 55% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Heading into this week, one of the big questions I had was how much the Texans would pass the ball with rookie C.J.
