As a result, fantasy managers will be on the lookout for wavier wire additions and replacement options for those injured over the weekend. Here’s a look at a player that is receiving early waiver wire buzz this week along with our advice on how to approach him in your bidding: Evan Engram.

Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Targets: Evan Engram

Evan Engram (JAC): 19% rostered

• Next opponents: @LAC, @PHI, HOU
• True value: $1
• Desperate need: $3
• Budget-minded: $0

Analysis: Engram falls in the same bucket as Hayden Hurst this week. He might just be the discount version. Engram followed up his 10.5% target share and 81.0% route participation in Week 1 with a banner game in Week 2. He led the team with a 26.6% target share and seven grabs. It doesn’t matter if he only turned these looks into 46 receiving yards. In PPR leagues, with that type of raw volume, you give yourself a shot at the top 12 weekly or higher if you find yourself doing the Griddy in the endzone.
