Week 3 Deeper League Waiver Pickups
Injuries have decimated the ranks of the NFL through two weeks, taking down some of the best at each position. Big-name quarterbacks are dropping like flies while notable skill position players are taking turns riding the injury carousel. In deeper leagues, it's kill or be killed on the waiver wire this week. The following players […]
Teddy Bridgewater (QB, NO) - Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ team leagues OWNED IN: 0% of leagues ANALYSIS: In the early days of 2019, no position has gone from "yeah, it's really deep" to "umm" faster than quarterback. Andrew Luck retired. Nick Foles broke his collarbone. Ben Roethlisberger's season is over. And in New Orleans, Drew Brees went down with […]

Assisting our famous waiver wire pickups list, and our weekly waiver wire columns by position, this column focuses on suggested waiver wire bidding percentages for fantasy football owners in leagues using a Free Agent Acquisition Budget (FAAB).

Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds
After the opening week of the NFL season, the toughest decision for fantasy football owners was which rookie receiver to take a chance on.

Waiver Wire Express - Week 3 Lightning Round
Week 2 solidified some waiver-wire adds as more than flashes in the pan, while other Week 1 studs followed that up with a flop. Whether you're coasting towards an easy 2-0 start, in the thick of it at 1-1 or up against it with an 0-2 team, you never stop improving. Stay tuned as injury updates […]
Wide Receiver Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 3
Week 2 of the NFL season is (mostly) over. A lot of the best wide receiver performances from the weekend were from players who most folks already own, which makes it a bit tougher to navigate the waiver wire this week. This wasn't like Week 1, where guys like John Ross exploded and were no-doubt […]
D.J. Chark (WR, JAC) - Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-plus team leagues OWNED IN: 12% of leagues ANALYSIS: The 22-year-old product from LSU didn't do much with Blake Bortles at quarterback in his rookie season, catching only 14 passes for 174 yards and no touchdowns in 11 games. Through two games in 2019, though, D.J. Chark is just three catches […]
Jalen Ramsey Asking For Trade
Jacksonville Jaguars cornerback Jalen Ramsey's agent has asked for a trade following the Week 2 loss to the Texans, according to league sources. The Jaguars have spoken to interested teams, but they have no current plans to trade Ramsey after he got into a heated exchange with head coach Doug Marrone on the sidelines on […]
D.J. Chark, Chris Conley, Marqise Lee Limited Monday
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receivers D.J. Chark (ankle), Chris Conley (hip) and Marqise Lee (knee) were all limited in practice on Monday ahead of the Week 3 game Thursday night against the Titans. All three should be able to suit up, although Lee missed the Week 2 game. Chark has been Jacksonville's most productive wideout through […]
Dede Westbrook Struggles Against Texans
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Dede Westbrook caught just one of his five targets in Sunday's loss to the Houston Texans, finishing with just three yards. It was the second disappointing game in a row for Westbrook, though this one makes Week 1's 30 yard performance look good. Westbrook and rookie quarterback Gardner Minshew just aren't […]
D.J. Chark Finds End Zone In Week 2
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver D.J. Chark found the end zone for the second week in a row, catching a late score in the fourth quarter that brought the Jaguars within a point. Chark led the team with nine targets, catching seven of them for 55 yards. His usage in Week 2 suggests that his Week […]
Chris Conley Has Solid Week 2
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Chris Conley caught four passes for a team-high 73 yards in Sunday's loss to the Houston Texans. Rookie quarterback Gardner Minshew has been looking Conley's way pretty consistently, and he's becoming a solid fantasy option in deeper leagues. With Marqise Lee and Keelan Cole seemingly out of the team's receiving rotation, […]
Leonard Fournette Grinds Out Solid Fantasy Day
Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette carried the ball 15 times for 47 yards in Jacksonville's Week 2 loss to the Houston Texans. He also caught four passes for 40 yards. Fournette was the only Jaguars running back with a carry or a target in this one, and while it wasn't his best game, his […]
Gardner Minshew Leads Jaguars In Rushing
Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Gardner Minshew threw for 213 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's loss to the Houston Texans. He was 22-for-33 passing and also added 56 rushing yards on six carries. It was another solid fantasy outing for Minshew, though it didn't really translate to the scoreboard for the rookie passer. Minshew looks like […]

NFL DFS Prop Picks for 9/15/19 - Monkey Knife Fight
The natural inclination after Week One of the NFL season is to react to the on-field information that was presented by the first games of the season. The challenge for statistical evaluation is that one game is a small sample any way you slice it. For example, how much weight to you put to the […]
Marqise Lee, A.J. Bouye Ruled Out
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Marqise Lee (knee) and cornerback A.J. Bouye (hip) have both been downgraded to out for Week 2 against the Texans. Neither player will travel with the team to Houston. Lee is fourth on the receiver depth chart right now behind Dede Westbrook, D.J. Chark and Chris Conley, so he's not even […]
