With week one in the books, not only are people with under performing teams scrambling, but also David Johnson, Allen Robinson, and Kevin White owners are desperately trying to find players to fill some pretty big holes. So whether you need to fix your poor draft or you need to replace injured players I got you covered. If you have questions about players not on this list feel free to hit me up in my Facebook group Dynasty League Problems or find me on Twitter @MikeKelleyDLP.
Top Waiver Wire Adds for Week 2
NOTE: percentage owned is based on FleaFlicker player availability on Tuesday morning and all players suggested is assuming PPR unless noted.
The LootCrate Waiver Wire Add of the Week: QB DeShone Kizer (CLE) – 27% Owned
I know the Browns did not win this past week, but Kizer looked pretty good for a rookie quarterback having to go up against a very tough Steelers defense. The Steelers were constantly in his face and he still managed 20/222/1 on 30 attempts. Throw in 17 more yards and a touchdown on the ground and you end up with a very solid QB2 play this past week. I suspect things will be getting better for him in the coming weeks too. Having to play in Baltimore will not be easy, but it is doable. After that he has the Colts, Bengals, and the Jets. Those are some pretty favorable games for Kizer to get in a nice groove. If he continues to play as well as he did last week and makes a little progress each week, Kizer could end up making his way into the top 15 of quarterbacks before the seasons end. If you are in a dynasty, 2QB or superflex league be sure so scoop up Kizer. If you are not in one of those leagues but you have got your quarterback late and started a guy like Andy Dalton I would strongly consider grabbing Kizer as insurance.
RB Kerwynn Williams (ARI) – 6% Owned
WR Nelson Agholor (PHI)
TE Charles Clay (BUF)
Honorable Mentions:
Love our content? Check out the GoingFor2 Live Podcast Network!
- Jared Goff (LA) 24 percent owned – I have been high on this guy all off season and he week one performance has not changed my mind.
- Trevor Siemian (DEN) 22 percent owned – At times during the preseason things did not look good for Siemian, but he came out week one and did what he does, manage the game.
- Tarik Cohen (CHI) 16 percent owned – Could be the next Tyreek Hill, does a little of everything and does it well.
- Chris Thompson (WAS) 25 percent owned – Would like to see more rushing, but 4/52/1 in the receiving game is nice for any running back.
- Charles Sims (TB) 26 percent owned – With Doug Martin suspended and Jeremy McNichols cut, Sims should have no problem going back to his usual role of passing down back with plenty of running chances.
- Kenny Golladay (DET) 30 percent owned – One of my favorite rookies. Saw seven targets and turned it into 4/69/2. Should see more looks as the season progresses.
- Cooper Kupp (LA) 35 percent owned – There were some concerns after missing two preseason games, but those are long gone after a 4/76/1 opening day performance.
- Paul Richardson (SEA) 16 percent owned – If Russell Wilson could get two seconds in the pocket Richardson could be the most targeted receiver for Seattle.
- Allen Hurns (JAC) 22 percent owned – With ARob out for the year some one has to fill his role and Hurns is the best candidate on the roster to do that.
- Jared Cook (OAK) 29 percent owned – Could this be the year he produces a full season? He is in the right spot for it.
Dynasty Stashes:
- Marlon Mack (IND) 29 percent owned – Saw action early, which is a good sign, but until Indy is out it he might not see too much consistent use. His future is bright though stash him if you can.
- George Kittle (SF) 10 percent owned – 5/27/0 is not very good, but it is promising that he saw six targets and caught five of them. Might not be much this year, but once C.J. Beathard takes over he could become very valuable.
