Giovani Bernard (RB, CIN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 48% of Yahoo! Leagues ANALYSIS: Giovani Bernard took advantage of Joe Mixon's absence last week, rushing 14 times for 30 yards and a score.

Running Backs Waiver Wire - Week 16 Pickups and Adds

Hopefully you're secure with your running back and/or flex situation, because the waiver wire cupboard is pretty bare at the position.
