10 Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 9
Jonathan Stewart, RB, Carolina Panthers
Jonathan Stewart has always been an average-to-below-average back - and he may be the second-best option on his own team, behind a quarterback, as sad as that is - but just like Allen Robinson before, you have to take players that are their team's number-one option. Always.
He may only get 15-20 touches a game, but putting up 4.6 yards per carry average against a Seattle defense is nothing to sneeze at. The tilt on Thursday against the Saints should prove to be much easier sledding, but beware that DeAngelo Williams could be back.
