Giants Defense A Decent Streaming Option In Week 2

The New York Giants defense can be used as a streamer in Week 2 in what's projected to be a low-scoring affair (40.5 over/under) against the Washington Football Team Thursday.

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 38% of Leagues ANALYSIS: You have definitely heard about the signing of Kenny Golladay with the Giants, am I right? Sure.

K.J. Osborn (WR, MIN) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 1% of Leagues ANALYSIS: If forced to project who would be the Vikings' top-two receivers in Week 1, 99% of Earth's population would choose Justin Jefferson and Adam Thielen.

Devontae Booker (RB, NYG) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 8% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Seven backs were selected prior to Saquon Barkley during the majority of drafts, which was a byproduct of the concerns that surrounded both his health and his environment. Barkley’s exceptional rookie season (2018) remains embedded in the consciousness of all managers. However, he has missed 17 […]

Tight End Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 2

It only took one week of NFL action to have fantasy football managers antsy about their tight ends. Not every tight end caught two touchdown tosses like Rob Gronkowski.

Tyler Conklin (TE, MIN) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 5% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Who would've ever thought that a time would come when Kyle Rudolph is no longer suiting up for the Minnesota Vikings? Even with all of the talent that Kirk Cousins can choose from on each play, they've still provided themselves with TE options […]

Kyle Rudolph (TE, NYG) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 15% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Big surprise! Evan Engram is hurt again and missing games! This is about as shocking as Travis Kelce NOT missing games.
