Obvious RB waiver wire if not already rostered : Tank Bigsby. I told my son to add him before last week, He didn't listen. Now he knows it will tough to get him. The last two weeks, 13 rushes / 90 yards, and last week was his breakout game, 13 rushes for 101 yards (2 TD's) and 1 reception for 28 yards. Even going back to week 1, he had 12 rushes for 73 yards. in the 3 games he has been involved in the offense, he has totaled 264 yards on 32 carries (whopping 8.25 YPC) and 2 TD's. He MAY be headed for RB1. Etienne is only averaging 3.7 YPC on 231 yards and with 53 rushes and only 2 TD's rushing.
What will be the bid for him ? $25 / $30 ?
WR adds :
Jaylen Tolbert - (Dallas) With Cook out, he is the clear #2 and gets as many targets as Lamb (double teamed)
Josh Downs (Indy)- Solid week in week out.
Deep add : Ray Ray McCloud (ATL). The targets the last 2 weeks, 9 and 7. 6 receptions each week totaling 123 yards. The TD \'s haven't came yet, but he is showing consistent production. DD points averaged. Where I think ATL needs to use him more is jet sweeps and handoffs out of the backfield. He is extremely talented, a big game is coming, Landon and Mooney get all the attention, but McCloud would be a nice #4/5 receiver. He will get solo coverage and has the ability to break one. After the 500 yards from Cousins, ATL may have found something. Spread the defense out and spread the ball around. There are worse options, but he is a solid deep / flier add.
