Irv Smith Jr. (TE, MIN) - Week 10 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 7% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Let me make something clear before we move forward: Minnesota's passing game and QB Kirk Cousins are, let's say, not volume-friendly.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 24% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Keep sleeping on Agholor, but do so at your own risk.

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins completed 13-of-20 passes for 220 yards and three touchdown passes in the team's convincing 34-20 win over the Lions. It was an unspectacular air attack for Minnesota, leaning heavily on the 248 all-purpose yards from dynamite running back Dalvin Cook. But Cousins cashed in when given the chance in the […]
