Waiver Wire Pickups & FAAB Advice for Week 2: Elijah Mitchell, Nyheim Hines

The long drought is over! NFL Week 1 is in the books, and it was as thrilling as we hoped it would be. We saw dramatic come-from-behind wins, big upsets, flashes of rookie superstardom, and Christian McCaffrey return at Avenger level. But, most importantly, for fantasy football coaches, after months of projecting how our players would be used, we finally have some actual data and saw some real action.

It's important not to overreact to Week 1 while also being aggressive on the waiver wire. It may seem obvious, but do not drop or trade Ezekiel Elliott, Saquon Barkley, Najee Harris, Kyle Pitts, Davante Adams, or Aaron Rodgers.
