BALLER MOVE: Add in All leagues
OWNED IN: 3% of Fleaflicker Leagues
ANALYSIS: Brown was already a hot waiver commodity this week when Thomas Rawls was lost for the season with a broken ankle. But he became my #1 pickup for the last few weeks of the season when the Seahawks released RB DuJuan Harris Tuesday afternoon.
It doesn’t appear that the team has any interest in giving Fred Jackson more than a few touches per game. With no timetable for Marshawn Lynch’s return, that should mean Bryce Brown is a feature back for the fantasy playoffs.
Brown has only had seven starts in his career but he does have three 100 yard games. He has also flashed some catching ability, with two separate games of at least six catches while playing for the Bills last season.
His next two opponents, the Browns and the Rams, are both in the top ten in fantasy points allowed to RBs. That makes Bryce Brown a must-add in all leagues this week. Even if it’s just to block your playoff opponent from grabbing another feature back - I recommend putting a claim in as Brown may see 15+ touches, and has shown he can do real damage in the past.
