Week 12 Waiver Wire Pickups Highlighted by Sean Tucker, Emanuel Wilson, Michael Wilson

Some of the top Week 12 waiver-wire additions took full advantage of their Week 11 opportunities.

Sean Tucker stood out inside a Tampa Bay Buccaneers offense that's missed Bucky Irving for a long stretch.

Emanuel Wilson filled the hole in the Green Bay Packers rushing attack that was left open by Josh Jacobs' in-game injury.

Michael Wilson did the same thing, but from the start, in the Arizona Cardinals passing game, as he was one of Jacoby Brissett's top targets with Marvin Harrison Jr. out.

All three players look more than one-week wonders and could provide massive help across the final few fantasy matchups of the regular season.

Sean Tucker finally had his breakout performance inside the Tampa Bay offense.

The third-year running back produced 106 yards and two touchdowns on the ground and scored once more on a passing play.

Tampa Bay's offense struggled to find consistency on the ground after Bucky Irving went down with an injury.

Rachaad White is only averaging 3.9 yards per carry and hasn't had more than 65 rushing yards in a single game during Irving's absence.

Tucker averaged over five yards per carry in each of his last two games, a sign that he can be effective even when Irving returns.

Tucker may not have the same impact in Week 12 against a tough Los Angeles Rams defense, but the next few weeks look promising.

Tampa Bay plays the Arizona Cardinals, New Orleans Saints and Atlanta Falcons in Weeks 13-15 in what could be a breakout stretch for Tucker. That would be the primary reason to pick him up now instead of waiting until after next week.

Emanuel Wilson filled in for an injured Josh Jacobs with 40 rushing yards and a touchdown on Sunday.

According to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero, "the initial belief is (Jacobs) avoided a significant injury" to his knee.

Wilson will likely be more of a short-term waiver-wire replacement for Jacobs, or any other running backs dealing with injuries or on bye weeks.

Green Bay is about to start a stretch of five games in which it plays four NFC North opponents and the Denver Broncos, not exactly the ideal stretch for any running back.

Wilson is worth the pickup, though, from a pure volume perspective. If Jacobs misses any time, Wilson will be the feature back inside the Green Bay offense.

Michael Wilson was one of the most productive fantasy football players in Week 11.

He caught 15 passes for 185 yards in a game in which the Cardinals played from behind from the start against the San Francisco 49ers.

Prior to Marvin Harrison Jr.'s injury, Wilson was the No. 3 option at best inside the Arizona passing offense behind Harrison and McBride.

Right now, Wilson is the top wide receiver in an offense that might have to be pass-heavy in losing situations for the next few weeks.

Arizona takes on the Jacksonville Jaguars, Tampa Bay and the Rams in the next three weeks. The game scripts for all three of those games will be positive for Wilson and any other Cardinals pass-catchers.

He obviously won't catch 15 passes every week, but as long as Jacoby Brissett is competent in the pocket, Wilson is a viable WR2 or FLEX option while Harrison is out.
