Falcons-Eagles MNF Recap

  • πŸ’‘ Kirk Cousins showed improved mobility and comfort in the Falcons' comeback win against the Eagles, ending with a strong performance.
  • 🎯 Drake London and Darnell Mooney each saw seven targets, indicating a potential resurgence for the Falcons' passing game.
  • πŸ“ˆ The Eagles' defense is identified as a matchup to target, especially given their struggles against tight ends.

Buy Low Candidates

  • πŸš€ Garrett Wilson is a prime buy-low target due to difficult opening matchups, with potential for improved performance against the Patriots.
  • πŸ’° Travis Kelce is also recommended as a buy-low, with expectations of increased target volume as the Chiefs' offense adjusts to the absence of Isiah Pacheco.

Sell High Candidates

  • ⚠️ JK Dobbins is a sell-high candidate due to his injury history and the Chargers' tendency to use a running back committee.
  • πŸ“ˆ Alvin Kamara is another sell-high option, despite his strong start, due to concerns about his age and potential for future production decline.

Top Waiver Wire Priorities

  • 🏈 Carson Steele is the top waiver wire target for the Chiefs' backfield, assuming Kareem Hunt is not signed or is not a significant factor.
  • 🎯 Hunter Henry is a recommended tight end pickup, especially for teams needing a consistent option, given the Patriots' offensive situation.
  • 🌟 Darnell Mooney is listed as a third priority, with potential to be a WR3 or boom-bust flex option.

Quarterback Waiver Wire Adds

  • 🌟 Derek Carr is highlighted as a top waiver add, performing exceptionally well through the first two weeks with strong downfield passing and comfort in the Saints' offense.
  • 🎯 Geno Smith and Deshaun Watson are also recommended as QB pickups, with favorable matchups and potential for increased production.
  • ❓ Sam Darnold is a deeper league option, showing promise with the Vikings, but health and the return of key players are factors.

Wide Receiver Waiver Wire Adds

  • 🎯 Darnell Mooney is a moderate excitement pick, seen as a potential WR3 or flex due to improved Falcons offense and Cousins' play.
  • ⚑ Quentin Johnston is a high-upside pick, despite a tough matchup, due to his speed, target share, and potential to be the Chargers' top receiver.
  • πŸ’‘ Jauan Jennings is a deeper league option, benefiting from injuries to Deebo Samuel and Christian McCaffrey on the 49ers.

Running Backs & Tight Ends

  • πŸƒ Carson Steele is the primary target in the Chiefs' backfield, with Samaje Perine and potentially Kareem Hunt as other options, but caution advised against overspending.
  • 🏈 Hunter Henry is a top tight end target, offering consistency and a favorable matchup against the Jets.
  • 🎯 Mike Gesicki is a good option for a one-week fill-in, facing Washington, while Cobe Parkinson is also a viable option with depleted Rams receiving corps.
