    Last Weeks picks: QB - Mariota decided to delay the Ridder era with a crazy day. Zappe ended the day as QB 7. Skylar got hurt early, and Teddy went on to end the day as QB 8. Mixed bag. RB - Ken Walker delivered a big day ending up at RB 8. The other guys, not so much. Benjamin ended up as RB 22, which was not a horrible showing. Coleman did nothing. WR - Pierce ended up WR 25, and Meyers was middle of the pack. Cobb got hurt and goes back to fantasy irrelevance. TE - Hurst ended up at TE 25 for the week. Meh. On to the Waiver Wire after Week 7. QB:

    1. Matt Ryan - After a mixed season thus far, Ryan went off with QB 2 numbers for the week and lifted him to QB 14 for the year. He is probably on your waiver wire and worth a look.
    2. Taylor Heinicke - Wentz is out, and Taylor is next up. He may not be a great option, but he is the starter.
    3. Marcus Mariota - Back from the dead. Not sure how long it will last, but worth a flier.

    RB:

    1. Kenyan Drake - Who knows what will happen in Baltimore but for now, Drake is the guy. He might be a one-week option, though.
    2. Latavius Murray - Murray ate into what should have been a prime spot for Gordon. The coaching seems to be high on him for now. Definitely worth a pickup.
    3. Deon Jackson - Until Taylor gets back in gear, Jackson might get you a few weeks of value.

    WR:

    1. Brandon Aiyuk - Aiyukl had a big day logging in at WR 3 for the week. He could be an excellent rest-of-the-season grab as long as Garapolo is QB.
    2. Robbie Anderson - It could be risky, but a move to Arizona could be just what the doctor ordered for Anderson.
    3. Juju Smith Schuster - Juju came in at WR 8 this week, and in that high-octane KC offense, he could have some good weeks ahead.

    TE:

    1. Daniel Bellinger - The rookie ended up as TE 7 for the week, and his best days could be just around the corner.
