Fantasy Football: 5 players to add off waivers to replace Christian McCaffrey

Pierre Strong Jr. (Cleveland Browns)

If those four players aren't available and fantasy football managers need to dig a little deeper, then Pierre Strong Jr. could be a great player to add off the waiver wire. The Cleveland Browns are locked in as the fifth seed and that won't change with a win or a loss in Week 18.

The Browns could look to rest Jerome Ford and Kareem Hunt which means Pierre Strong Jr. would get a majority of the work. Strong joined the Cleveland Browns after one season with the New England Patriots and has been limited this season due to the other running backs on the team with 226 rushing yards and 47 receiving yards in 16 games.

However, the past two games Pierre Strong Jr. has been a little more productive with 20+ rushing yards in each game and an average of 5.6 yards per carry. The Browns are playing a Bengals defense that hasn't been great against the run and could be a good week for the Browns' running back.
