Top Running Back Waiver Wire Options

  • ⚑ Emanuel Wilson is a priority add, especially if Jacobs misses Week 12, due to a favorable matchup against the Vikings.
  • πŸ’‘ Kenneth Gainwell is also a strong consideration, facing the Bears, and is projected to be a top 24 running back.
  • 🏈 Sean Tucker is ranked third due to the potential return of Bucky Irving but could be a flex play if he gets the starting job against the Rams.
  • πŸš€ Zonovan Knight presents an opportunity against Jacksonville if Trey Benson and Amari Demarcado are out, with a history of productive performances.
  • πŸ“Œ Chris Rodriguez is likely the starting running back for Washington coming off their bye week.
  • βœ… Deon Singleary is worth adding, with indications that Bashel Tutin will play and was outperforming Travis Etienne before his injury.

Quarterback Waiver Wire Considerations

  • 🌟 Jacobe Brassette is the top waiver wire quarterback, having proven himself with five straight games over 22 fantasy points, even without Marvin Harrison Jr.
  • 🎯 Justin Fields is a deeper option in one-quarterback leagues after his recent performance, though Tyrod Taylor is starting for the Giants.
  • πŸ“ˆ Bryce Young could be a second option in one-quarterback leagues against the 49ers, showing potential when forced to throw.
  • ❓ Other two-quarterback options include Jameis Winston, Aidan O'Connell, Tyrod Taylor, Mason Rudolph, Davis Mills, and Shedeur Sanders.

Wide Receiver Waiver Wire Targets

  • πŸ† Michael Wilson is a significant target, especially if Marvin Harrison Jr. remains out, showing potential for a high target share against Jacksonville.
  • πŸš€ Christian Watson is worth rostering after scoring two touchdowns on five targets, with potential for increased volume if the Packers offense relies more on passing.
  • πŸ’‘ Parris Campbell is a stash option, particularly if Brian Thomas Jr. is out, and given the Cardinals' defense.
  • 🧐 Darnell Mooney is worth considering due to Drake London's injury status, offering potential if he can perform better.
  • 🌟 M. Holland has had two good games in his last three and is worth monitoring.
  • πŸ”‘ Jaden Higgins has seen seven or more targets in three of his last four games.
  • ⚠️ Jaylen Coker may see more involvement if Xavier Legette is out due to a hip injury.
  • ✨ Tyrell Shavers is a flyer to consider if he earns a larger role after the team scored their most points of the season.
  • πŸ“ˆ Luther Burden is a stash to see how his situation develops.

Tight End and Defense Waiver Wire Picks

  • 🏈 Juwan Johnson is a strong tight end option coming off his bye, having a season-high 92 yards and a touchdown in his first game without Rashid Shaheed.
  • πŸ“Š Dalton Schultz remains a low-end starter option despite a tough matchup against Buffalo.
  • πŸš€ Chig Okonkwo could have an opportunity to catch passes for the Titans offense, especially with Ridley out and other injuries.
  • πŸ›‘οΈ Cleveland Browns are a top defense pick against the Raiders, followed by the Chiefs against Daniel Jones, and the Jaguars against Jacobe Brassette.
