Week 2 Waiver Wire Adds (Yahoo Scoring) Under 50% Owned
Tampa Bay Buccaneers D/ST, 9% Rostered , Although Tampa lost to the Bengals, the defense did a moderately decent job, contributing 9 fantasy points. Tampa takes on Cleveland in Week 2, and the goal this season is to stream any defense against the Browns.
San Francisco 49ers D/ST, 12% Rostered , San Fran put an exclamation point on both offense and defense against a leading candidate for a Super Bowl victory this year, the Los Angeles Rams. They have a much easier opponent coming up against Miami, and should look to feast on Malik Willis and his underwhelming supporting cast.
Caleb Douglas, WR, Miami Dolphins, 12% Owned , Speaking of Malik Willis' supporting cast, Caleb Douglas has emerged as the WR1 for Miami, which isn't much to write home about right now. Catching 5 of 7 targets for 94 yards in your first game ever is nothing to scoff at. He's a borderline flex in certain matchups, and despite all the talk surrounding Malik Willis' running ability, he was a fairly accurate passer in his first week. Even if Douglas isn't worth a start against the Niners this week, he is worth a stash, as he has immense breakout potential this year.
Bryce Young, QB, 14% Owned , Bryce had himself a game against Chicago, scoring 32 fantasy points, which was third among all quarterbacks. Chicago's defense might have been Swiss cheese, but Carolina seems to have found something with Jalen Coker and Tetairoa McMillan. Bryce also seems to have sneaky red zone rushing ability, getting a touchdown with his legs. Don't expect 32 points every week, but he's worth a stash in case of an injury or as a bye week start.
Emmett Johnson, RB, Kansas City, 20% Owned , Emmett was an afterthought in the blowout victory against Denver on Monday night, but with the little action he saw, he made waves, recording 2 receptions for 44 yards and 8 carries for 24 yards. Emmett has many things going for his fantasy relevance. For starters, Kenneth Walker has had only one healthy season in four years, and the Chiefs seem to want to run him into the ground and win games on defense. Any running back holds value in an Andy Reid style offense, and the built in injury history with Kenneth Walker leaves Emmett as one of the best bench stashes in fantasy this year.
