Week 3 Waiver Adds Under 50% Owned (Yahoo)

Kirk Cousins, QB, Las Vegas Raiders, 5% Owned , Cousins has been half decent in fantasy, given the fact that he has arguably been dealing with the worst WR room in the NFL. Not to mention, he has thrown 3 passing TDs in each game he's played, placing him at QB11 on the year. A favorable matchup against New Orleans is on the menu this week, but Kansas City and New England loom. These games could be shootouts for Cousins, who seems up for the task this year.

Jonah Coleman, RB, Denver Broncos, 28% Owned , The glaring hole left by Dobbins getting his yearly injury, combined with Harvey not playing, seems to have supplanted Coleman into a viable fantasy asset. The injury tags for both Harvey and Dobbins are pointing toward them playing in Week 3, but Coleman could be worth a stash in a Sean Payton offense.

Denzel Boston, WR, Cleveland Browns, 33% Owned , Denzel seems to have taken over as the #1 WR in Cleveland, which on paper doesn't sound very attractive, but multiple double digit scoring outings are hopeful signs. Fantasy success doesn't always have to mean real life success, and Denzel has the skill set, while his targets have increased from game to game. If your WR room is dealing with some injuries, Denzel might be worth an add and the occasional flex play, depending on the matchup. The Browns' schedule is one in which he can't be deployed every week, but he is worth a spot start against even decent offenses for a chance at a double digit fantasy score.

Adonai Mitchell, WR, New York Jets, 17% Rostered , Can Geno Smith really sustain 2 fantasy relevant wideouts? If you didn't check the box score last game, Adonai Mitchell received 12 targets, although he only turned them into 6 receptions for 63 yards. A juicy matchup against the depleted Detroit Lions secondary makes him a great flex spot start. Add in a little injury insurance in the case of Garrett Wilson going down, and Adonai is a great spot start with built in upside on your bench.

Las Vegas Raiders D/ST, 5% Rostered , The Raiders are the 4th ranked fantasy defense. They have had a light schedule against Miami and what appears to be a dumpster fire in the Los Angeles Chargers. Despite that, they have looked like a defense that generates takeaways and sacks.
