Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups to Stash

Stash Candidates: Alexander Mattison, Melvin Gordon, Tyler Allgeier, Ty Johnson

Alexander Mattison might trick some people into a waiver overspend with his touchdown on Sunday, but he still only saw five touches behind Dalvin Cook. He is still completely irrelevant without a Cook injury.

Melvin Gordon is going to make his Chiefs debut next week in all likelihood, but there should be plenty of doubt about how many touches he can pluck from Isiah Pacheco and Jerick McKinnon.

Ty Johnson is a secondary or tertiary option in a messy NYJ committee. He had six receptions and one rushing attempt in Week 13. As strong as Bam Knight has looked, Johnson is only relevant as long as Michael Carter is on the shelf with his ankle sprain. Carter might even be ready this week.
