Three early fantasy football waiver wire pickups for Week 12

Cam Newton had quite the return to fantasy relevance back in Week 10, scoring two touchdowns even though he didn't start the game at quarterback.

Well, he started the game in Week 11 against Washington and delivered a vintage performance. Cam completed 20-of-25 passes for 189 yards and two touchdowns long with 46 rushing yards and a touchdown on the ground.

Washington's defense isn't great, but we must accept Newton as a top-12 fantasy quarterback option thanks to his ability to run the ball and score in the red zone as a rushing threat.
