                                                          With four weeks of the 2017 NFL season already in the books, it’s safe to say there’s been more than a fair share of surprises. In their 2017 NFL First Quarter Review, Kevin Steele (@fantasywrath13), Ben Cummins (@BenCumminsFF), Ryan Williams (@RyanAlexander_W) and Anthony Pinzone (@the1andonlypz) take a look at some of the biggest story lines from the 2017 NFL fantasy football season.

                                                          Is Houston Texans rookie quarterback Deshaun Watson for real? Can Kansas City Chiefs rookie running back Kareem Hunt keep up his record setting pace? What should you do about Amari Cooper’s troubling slow start?

                                                                      Kevin Steele (@fantasywrath13) and Anthony Pinzone (@the1andonlypz) bring you their week 4 waiver priority on the latest TFA Transaction Tuesday!

                                                                      Well the injury riddled week we were anticipating has finally happened. Week 4 has anointed many new starters at the running back and wide receiver positions, good news for any teams that have been struggling or dealing with injuries of their own. The loss of running back Dalvin Cook in Minnesota is especially eye opening, as patient Latavius Murray owners were greatly rewarded with a bell cow RB on a run heavy offense.

                                                                      That wasn’t the only running back to go down this week, check out the rest of our week 4 waiver priority below!

                                                                                                      Kevin Steele (@fantasywrath13), Ryan Williams (@RyanAlexander_W) and Anthony Pinzone (@the1andonlypz) bring you their week 2 waiver priority on the latest TFA Transaction Tuesday!

                                                                                                      Once again injuries helped to sway the waiver order. With big names like Jordy Nelson, Randall Cobb, John Brown and Greg Olsen all either not playing or leaving their respective games with injuries, many teams will be scrambling for players to fill those holes. Greg Olsen owners got it the worst, with the TE going down for 2 months. You won’t want to miss Kevin and Ryan debate whether Devin Funchess or Russell Shepard is the name to own in Carolina going forward.

                                                                                                      Week 2 Waiver Priority – Top 10
