In the first week of the waiver wire, analysts are already identifying players who deserve attention in C2C format leagues. The analysis brings names that stood out in the opening games and could be good choices for anyone looking to improve their team.

Player who surprised at Oregon State

Atkinson, from Oregon State, was the team's only bright spot on the day. He completed 29 passes for a total of 376 yards and a touchdown, generating 23.94 fantasy points. The player showed good passing quality and release speed, although the receivers failed to avoid drops. Still young, Atkinson appears to be a good target for anyone looking for an ascending quarterback.

Marshall, the easiest choice at Kansas

Quarterback Marshall had his first start at Kansas, completing 14 of 19 passes for 246 yards and two touchdowns, in addition to 49 rushing yards on seven attempts. The team finished with over 600 total yards, demonstrating the combination of passing and rushing that could be interesting for C2C leagues. Although the opponent was LIU, the upcoming game against Missouri promises a greater challenge.

Pop Watson stands out against Rutgers

Pop Watson had an impressive performance against Rutgers, completing 19 of 22 passes for 197 yards and three touchdowns, plus 40 rushing yards. He finished with nearly 30 fantasy points. The performance against a Big Ten team shows efficiency and versatility, and the future schedule looks more favorable.

What to consider in week one

For those looking to improve their team in C2C format, the first week offers good opportunities to acquire players who haven't been heavily explored in leagues yet. The analysis highlights that the fast pace of college football makes situations change quickly, and players who stand out in this phase can be good choices for anyone wanting to get ahead of the rest of the league.
