I've never done a league where a waiver wire claim moves you to the back of the line so I have a question.

1) If I have the 8th pick and me and the 6th pick each pick someone up - next week will I get the 11th pick and he gets the 12th?

2) If I have the 8th pick and pick up 2 people and the 6th picks up one player - next week will I get the 12th pick and he gets the 11th?

Tyrell Williams should be everybody's #1 WW claim. I'm not going to sit here and say it's a lock. It's obviously not but his measurables project him as a WR1 and he has a chance to get #1WR opportunity in SD.

This only flames out if Rivers doesn't trust him. His floor if there is trust is low end WR2 production. Ceiling is 1000+ yards and double digit TD'S.

Is Williams worth blowing the #1 WW claim in standard? Not sure if I want to pull the trigger. He'd be a flex option only most weeks since I have BMarsh and Arob

Jusrt think of them as instant moving to the back of the line after you use one. The last guy to use one is last in line.

So the general consensus is that Tyrell Williams is better for RoS than Travis Benjamin?

Put these in order please:

Will Fuller
Travis Benjamin
Tyrell Williams

Lessons learnt from week 1:

Don't over value running backs on bad offenses. Supposed #1RB Gurley - nothing. AP, Zeke - piss poor. Doesn't matter how many chances you get if the defense knows what you're doing.

i still kinda like benjamin over williams just because benjamin showed some skills last year and williams is largely unproven. but honestly, i think gates and woodhead see the biggest bumps and id just be tossing a coin between benjamin/williams at this point

So you're saving it for the next chance at a possible #1 WR with a possible season long opportunity?

Watch his 5 targets and remember they were trying to protect a lead. He looks bigger and faster than everybody and jumps off the tape.

Yeah. I wouldn't trust any SD WR enough to blow a high waiver priority.

This. Rivers is gonna spread it even more than he usually does. Woodhead becomes a PPR monster and Gates as long as he stays healthy cleans up. Anyone's guess on a week to week basis what WR's deliver for the Chargers but they have a very juice schedule the next 3 weeks minimum.

Yeah, I'm not blowing any waiver budget on anything this week. Probably just dump Ajayi for BPA once dust settles

I have a league that resets, I usually have a bunch of waiver picks in. No reason to wait for free agency.
