There isn’t any larger time to make the most of the waiver wire than the fantasy soccer playoffs. Whether or not your star large receiver simply went down (see Ja’Marr Chase) otherwise you simply wish to block your opponents from strengthening their roster (no judgment right here). The waiver wire this week and subsequent will play a giant half in who’s topped champion in your league. This week we now have a number of choices to focus on on the ability positions. Let’s break these down additional beneath.
Quarterbacks
Joe Flacco – (18.2% Owned)
Joe Flacco has formally turn out to be a viable fantasy possibility on the quarterback place. Sure, we’re nonetheless in 2023 which makes that assertion much more baffling however the stats communicate for themselves. Flacco has completed no worse than QB13 in his three video games with the Cleveland Browns. He’s nonetheless very a lot a gunslinger which suggests there might be errors however the manufacturing might be there. In case you have Trevor Lawrence and are nervous about his concussion it’s best to decide up Flacco as a security possibility.
Operating Backs
Clyde Edwards-Helaire – (36.5% Owned)
Fellow operating again Jerick McKinnon could also be getting the thrill this week however Edwards-Helaire is the higher possibility going ahead. Edwards-Helaire out-touched McKinnon 17 to 7 and had 101 whole yards in Sunday’s win over the Patriots. For those who’re caught deciding between the 2 simply keep in mind that Edwards-Helaire may also be a risk within the passing recreation.
Vast Receivers
Curtis Samuel – (39.7% Owned)
Enjoying any large receiver within the Commanders offense is dangerous at this level however Samuel has been essentially the most constant this season. He grabbed one other 2 receiving touchdowns on Sunday on 9 targets for Washington. As of now, it seems to be like quarterback Sam Howell will end the season because the starter (which is the fitting transfer). If that’s the case Howell has developed a pleasant chemistry with Samuel and I see that persevering with.
Tight Ends
Hunter Henry – (20.8% Owned)
There aren’t many choices on the tight finish place on the waiver wire however Henry is the best choice if obtainable. Henry has now completed back-to-back weeks inside the highest 5 for tight ends together with 3 receiving touchdowns in that span. He additionally has a wonderful matchup this week with the Broncos who’re giving up a median of 10.6 fantasy factors per recreation to tight ends. For those who’re skinny at tight finish go and seize Henry.
