Baker Mayfield (QB, CLE) - Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues ROSTERED: 48% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Baker Mayfield barely made it to my weekly waiver wire posts, but his under-50% rostered rate was enough for me to consider writing about him.

Teddy Bridgewater Struggles Against Tampa Bay

Carolina Panthers quarterback Teddy Bridgewater completed 33 of 42 passes for 367 yards and two interceptions in a 31-17 loss to the Buccaneers.

Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson did managed to throw for 275 yards against the Baltimore Ravens in Week 2, but with just one touchdown and an interception, Watson didn't have the strong day that fantasy managers expect from Watson.

Matt Ryan Tosses Four Touchdowns

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan went 24-for-36 with 273 yards and four touchdowns in the 40-39 loss to the Dallas Cowboys in Week 2.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady completed 23 of 35 passes for 217 yards, a touchdown and an interception in a victory over the Panthers.
