Top Quarterback Waiver Wire Pickups and Streamers for Week 3: Jimmy Garoppolo, Tua Tagovailoa, Carson Wentz, Jared Goff

It has been a rough start to the quarterback position to start the NFL season in terms of injuries. Last week, the Cowboys lost Dak Prescott for several weeks with a thumb injury. This week, exciting rookie Trey Lance was carted off the field after he suffered a broken ankle that will ultimately end his […]

Deeper-League Waiver Wire Adds for Week 3: Jordan Mason, Jaylen Warren, Nelson Agholor, Jerick McKinnon, D.J. Chark, Greg Dortch

The first two weeks of the NFL's regular season have concluded, so it's time to get back on the hunt for deep-league waiver pickups.

What are the Fantasy Outlooks for Deebo Samuel, George Kittle, Brandon Aiyuk with Jimmy Garoppolo as the 49ers' Starting Quarterback?

Trey Lance fractured his ankle in his third start in the NFL against the Seattle Seahawks and will miss the remainder of the season after surgery Monday morning. This is a huge blow for Lance, his fantasy managers, and perhaps the ceiling of the 49ers offense. As always, we aren't here to simply gloss over […]

Jared Goff (QB, DET) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 3

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 21% of Leagues ANALYSIS: This is the second season of Jared Goff in Detroit. This is, also, the nth season in which fantasy GMs are basically not trusting Goff just one bit. If you ask me though, I think the criticism is too loud definitely a little […]

Carson Wentz (QB, WAS) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 3

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 50% of Leagues ANALYSIS: I wrote a post about Carson Wentz as part of my weekly WW coverage. I'm doing it again this week, and that only highlights one thing: fantasy GMs still don't trust Carson Wentz but they absolutely should. In other words: stop reading […]

Jimmy Garoppolo (QB, SF) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 3

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 4% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Bye bye, Trey Lance.

Tua Tagovailoa (QB, MIA) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 3

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 61% of Leagues ANALYSIS: After two underwhelming seasons, it seems that Tua Tagovailoa is ready to show the skills that made him a top-five pick in the 2019 NFL Draft. Tua flashed an improved deep ball in a massive come-from-behind victory against the Baltimore Ravens in […]

Matt Ryan (QB, IND) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 3

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 44% of Leagues ANALYSIS: We knew Michael Pittman Jr. was good. We didn't know he was the key to the entire Colts' passing offense. Without their top wideout, Matt Ryan looked lost. He barely completed 50% of his passes for 195 yards and threw three interceptions […]

Marcus Mariota (QB, ATL) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 3

BALLER MOVE: Add in 2QB/Superflex Leagues ROSTERED IN: 11% of Leagues ANALYSIS: A former No. 2 pick, Marcus Mariota has never been the type to boom in fantasy. He is mostly an efficient but uninspiring game manager with some rushing upside. Mariota has played exactly that type of game over his first two games with […]
