Waiver Wire & FAAB Discussion - Week #8 (3 Viewers)

Week 8 Waivers

Not much out there this week. But there are 6 teams on bye this week, so a lot of names you may not consider will be starting even as backups.

Running Backs

Bye week desperation
RB Kyle Monangai
RB Tyrone Tracy
RB Brashard Smith
RB Isaiah Davis
RB Justice Hill
RB Jeremy Mcnichols

Check if still out there
RB Tyjae Spears (42% on sleeper)

Worth grabbing if dropped
RB Zonovan (Bam) Knight (bye wk8)
RB Bayshul Tuten (bye wk8)

Very speculative
RB Devin Neal (Saints)

Wide Receivers

Might be worth it
WR Tez Johnson

Hold your nose bye weeks
WR Xavier Legette
WR Elic Ayomanor
WR Chimere Dike
WR Van Jefferson
WR Marvin Mims
WR Alec Pierce
WR Troy Franklin
WR Tyler Johnson
WR Jaylin Lane
WR Chris Moore
WR Luke McCaffrey

Tight Ends

Finally something worthwhile
TE Orande Gadsen

Maybe still ok
TE Juwann Johnson
TE Theo Johnson

Good luck chasing
TE Daniel Bellinger
TE Pat Freiermuth
TE Colby Parkinson
TE Austin Hooper

Speculative
TE Gunnar Helm

DST

Indy vs Tenn
ATL vs Miami

Treyveon Henderson starting to land on waivers. Any positive thoughts on him?
Team is winning and coaches seem to be old school in that vets get preferential treatment. He also hasn't really flashed anything like Gibbs did when he was a rookie that would force them to give him more work. Might not happen for redraft.

I put a bid in bc I need a major lotto ticket. Drafting Bowers early was a major mistake and now Evans gone so I need a hail Mary. It's a desperation play but with so many other busts this season I figure why not.
 
I added Alec Pierce. I like his high yards per catch and recent usage. Need WR help. Not sure if I'll start him this week or not though.
Also added Chargers Defense - they play Vikings week 8, and Titans week 9.

I'm stashing Jennings. Think he'd take over for RS if it injured.

Coaches know things we don't they don't seem to .not like T Henderson or he would of had the touches, not Jennings had in important part of game couple weeks back.
 
Kareem Hunt was dropped in my league and I’m desperate at RB with Bucky out and Montgomery and Kenneth Walker on Bye. Is he worth picking up or has Smith taken the backup role from him?

Good pickup

He missed practice today with a bone bruise.

I have Henderson as well and I think there is only a slim chance he would become starter if RS was injured. I agree with you on Jennings. Contemplating ejecting Henderson for Tuten in case he can take over the JAX spot or at least step in if Etienne is injured.

My $.02 It's possible he gets a goal line carry, if they get close. Smith has taken over his receptions.
 
Josh Downs is a FA right now in a 12 team start 3WR and 2Flex. I feel like he has to have some value in a league like that? I’d have to drop Jaylin Noel (who I’m starting)? spears or Burden for him. But it’s not moving the needle for me. Should I?

I'd grab Downs. He already has a starting role in great offense. He'll be someone you can start weekly,instead of hoping Noel takes over as Texans slot wr role.
Braxton Berrios might take targets n playing time from Noel this week too.

Downs not splitting his wr role.

Well, Downs is looking like he’s 4th in the receiving pecking order.
 
tuten.

Last year TB OC Coen changed RB from white to Irving after the bye. White was fine before the bye but not special
Coen is now HC of the jags and on bye this week. Etienne has been fine but not special. And he’s nursing a shoulder injury.

It’s thin but enough for me to stash a week

Start weekly
Was a terrible waiver week
Hopefully Tez Johnson proves you wrong :shades:
Was only available in about 10% of my leagues people grab those guys quick in the high stakes world.
Stop. Stakes have nothing to do with it. Roster sizes do.
