Follow on Google News | NFL Week 16 Waiver-Wire Pickups | NFL Football BettingSportsbook - NFL Week 16 Waiver-Wire Pickups: It's all about the running game this week on our fantasy football waiver-wire pickups. A few notable runners popped out last weekend.
By: Billgerber Below we have the top players you might want to pay attention to on the wire. Running Backs Jerome Harrison (Browns) You wouldn't think a running back that just had the third-highest single-game rushing total ever (with three touchdowns to boot) would be on fantasy football waiver wires, but Jerome Harrison may be available in your league. A few weeks ago Harrision's name started popping up again as a fantasy relevant name because Jamal Lewis was officially announced as being done for the season. Since the Browns still had the Chiefs and Raiders on their schedule, it only made sense to grab Harrison off the wire. http://www.sportsbetting.com Then, on Thursday night football in Week 14, Harrison saw rookie Chris Jennings take the majority of touches. Many fantasy owners gave up on Harrison once more and probably cut him going into this week. If Harrison is available his is a no-brainer to pick up with a great matchup this week against the Raiders. http://www.sportsbetting.com Michael Bush (Raiders) It looks like the Raiders are finally solid on letting Michael Bush be the main ball carrier on this team once again. Bush had a big game against the Broncos and should have another solid fantasy football performance against the Browns next week. With the Raiders actually playing well, the running game is back, and Bush should have plenty of opportunities to produce this weekend at Sportsbook Online. Justin Forsett (Seahawks) It looks like Julius Jones suffered another rib injury this week against the Buccaneers, and that means Justin Forsett may be the feature back next week. Unfortunately, Forsett doesn't have a great matchup against the Packers, but he has shown he can get the job done. Forsett will make for a decent flex option this week if he has the job to himself. Defense/ ST 49ers Defense If you're looking for a solid defense to help you win a fantasy football championship, look no further than the 49ers defense. This week the Niners play the Lions, and next week they play the Rams. This is the best two-game matchup any fantasy defense will have, hands down. Look for the 49ers to win both games and for their defense to play a big part in the reason for their success. End
