Week 3 Waiver Wire: Chris Carson, J.J. Nelson Highlight Pickups to Know

By now, owners can see the importance of the fantasy football waiver wire.

Those who splurged on, say, Kareem Hunt of the Kansas City Chiefs were rewarded in Week 2 with another 22.90 points. Javorius Allen of the Baltimore Ravens was an even longer shot, yet we projected him as a necessary add and he went on to post 16.10 points in a bigger role.

Of course, not every waiver add will hit. Those who threw weight behind Minnesota Vikings quarterback Sam Bradford were left scrambling for help after he outright missed Week 2, though thankfully the issue arose at the easiest position to stream.
