- π Taysom Hill is a viable tight end option if eligible, offering additional scoring potential beyond typical tight ends.
- π©Ή Zach Ertz is eligible to return from IR and is a top waiver target at tight end, though he may require a week to stash.

Waiver Wire Strategy and FAAB
- π° Most running backs are considered one-week fixes, but Hines and potentially Hyde offer longer-term value.
- πΈ For top waiver running backs like Ballage, Hines, and Ahmed, consider bidding closer to 25% of your FAAB budget due to high demand.
- π For players like Hyde and Alex Collins, you might be able to acquire them for less, especially if you can monitor the Thursday game for clarity on Seattle's backfield.
- π Aggressive bidding is recommended for those on the playoff bubble, as Week 11 offers several players who can help secure wins.
News and Notes
- π€ Drew Brees will miss several weeks with a punctured lung and rib injuries, opening the door for Jameis Winston.
- π Chris Carson is uncertain to play, potentially elevating Carlos Hyde or Alex Collins.
- π€ Allen Robinson has a hip pointer but is considered fine, though his fantasy outlook is tempered by the Bears' offensive line issues.
- π Jarvis Landry and Leonard Fournette are currently low on the drop meter, with considerations for weather and potential future usage.
Rookie Wide Receiver Class
- π The 2020 rookie wide receiver class is proving to be exceptionally strong, with players like CeeDee Lamb, Justin Jefferson, Tee Higgins, and Michael Pittman Jr. showing significant promise.
- π In a dynasty rookie draft, CeeDee Lamb is often the top pick, followed by Justin Jefferson and Tee Higgins.
