Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Advice: Drop or Hold?
DROP RECOMMENDATIONS
Don’t drop yet:
We know Gabe Davis has a feast-or-famine profile. You feasted in Weeks 2-5, when Davis scored a touchdown in four consecutive games. Your stomach is rumbling now that he’s had only 4-27-0 over his last four games. Fear not. There are more tasty dishes on the way.
The Bears kept Cole Kmet in to block for rookie QB Tyson Bagent quite a bit in Week 7, as Kmet ran routes on just 26 of his 63 snaps. Maybe it will continue to happen with Bagent at quarterback, but not necessarily. And Justin Fields will be back at QB for the Bears eventually.
Calvin Ridley‘s roller-coaster season has had more downs than ups so far. But c’mon, you know he’s too good to drop. Never drop a player out of spite. If you want to keep Ridley on your bench until he turns in a couple of prove-it games, fine. Don’t drop him.
