Brent Celek (TE, PHI) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add In Deeper Leagues (12+ teams) ANALYSIS: Philadelphia has a new head coach, Chip Kelly, who will use a fast-paced offensive attack.

Patterson was drafted this year (29th overall) and will play in roles very similar to those Harvin held (PR/KR, Slot WR). Currently, Patterson is behind Jerome Simpson on the depth chart, but I anticipate that […]
