MFFL Waiver Wire
Week 3

Congratulations to the managers that escaped week 2 two injury free. To all others, sucks to suck.

All right all the you Moose Knucklers, here is week three’s waiver wire breakdown:

The Hebrew Hammer: Team Manager – Matt Orzolek

The Hebrew really did drop the hammer…and all his FAAB this week for two pivotal adds. The widely attractive Mike Davis (Car – RB) and Jerick McKinnon (SF – RB) were those added and Rob Gronkowski (TB – TE) as well as Tevin Coleman (SF – RB) were dropped. As I am confident in saying that almost everyone submitted a high bid, I am pleased to announce that the selling price for Davis was $55 and McKinnon was $45.

Both players are notable and commanded a high bid, blowing one’s entire budget though in today’s operating environment is catapulting ones chances to wear a dress as other injuries and events (COVID, legal matters, or bad play) could hamper these two players fantasy potential.

“Let’s see how this one plays out.”

Hold My Beer: Team Manager – Gavin Fahey

Someone certainly did need to Hold a beer as that fat wallet needed some support while he threw down $40 FAAB on this week’s addition of newly signed Devonta Freeman (NYG – RB). Hold My Beer dropped Dede Westbrook (Jax – WR) for the add. Devonta Freeman is hypothesized to replace Saquon Barkley (NYG – RB) who was recently placed on IR, due to a season ending injury.

Considerable risk lays ahead. The NYG are not that good, Saquon Barkley was struggling to produce from the start of the season and the Giants have a fairly tough schedule facing defenses such as the; 49’ers, LA Rams, Dal, and Washington. Additionally, the Devonta Freemen will likely be in a RB committee with Dion Lewis and Wayne Gallman.

#ACLstrength: Team Manager – Reece Pagel

We all need someone behind the helm. Leading our fantasy teams to victory week after week and for #ACLstrength, Daniel Jones (NYG – QB) wasn’t cutting it and was released into the pits of the wire. #ACLstrength rescued Ryan Tannehill (Ten – QB) from the pits of the waiver and has been called to action. He didn’t stop there, #ACLstrength also added Myles Gaskin (Mia – RB) and dropped Saquon Barkley (NYG – RB). These rescue missions cost a pretty penny, $51FAAB to be precise. $33 for Gakin and $18 for Jones.

Tannehill is a wild card however, is in position to realize some solid fantasy production in the coming week. Playing against the Minnesota Vikings with the 6^th worst Defensive ranking this year and a yahoo fantasy projection of 21.68 points. Im bullish here and think Tannehill covers 25.00 points.

Is It Christmas Eve: Team Manager – Zach Gratton

Christmas Eve was yet another victim of weeks two’s onslaught of injuries with Courtland Sutton (Den – WR) going to IR and in his place Christmas Eve added Adam Humphries (Ten – WR) and Keelan Cole (Jax – WR). Total cost of transaction $23 FAAB.

Both players present moderate fantasy value and are WR3 – WR4’s with some upside potential present. Nothing special here – other than spending a combined $23 on both players. Depth is important though.

Washington R-Words: Team Manager – Mr. Dietrich (Sacko)

The R-words dropped Logan Thomas (Was – TE), Los Angeles Rams (Def) and added Wayne Gallman Jr. (NYG – RB), and Indianapolis (Def). Overall, this was not a bad drop and add with an overall price tag of $18FAAB. I’ll be honest I wanted Indy too as they face the NY Jets this week and I think they are this year’s Miami Dolphins team from the previous year. Outside of the defensive add, Gallman is clearly stepping into a larger role with added snap counts. He is however shadowed by Freeman and Lewis.

Other Notable Adds/Drops

The Great Goatse: Adding; KJ Hamler (Den – WR), Frank Gore (NYJ – RB), Michael Pittman (Ind – WR) and the Los Angeles Chargers (Def) and removing; Anthony Miller (Chi – WR), Darrel Williams (KC – RB), the Arizona Defense from the line-up as well as Steven Sims Jr. (Was – WR). Hamler costs $9FAAB and LAC Def cost $3.

Meh: Adding; Justin Herbert (LAC – QB), Jamaal Williams (GB – RB) and dropping AJ Dillon (GB – RB), Jimmy Garoppolo (SF – QB) …poor fella. Herbert $5FAAB, Jamaal $2FAAB.
