Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Advice: Drop or Hold?
DROP RECOMMENDATIONS
Droppable:
After opening the season with 12-131-0 in his first two games, Robert Woods has amassed 10-96-1 in the four games since, and he’s been held to 30 yards or fewer in three consecutive games. Since Week 3, Woods has averaged just 4.0 yards per target. It’s time to jettison the 31-year-old veteran.
Don’t drop yet:
Even though he hasn’t been getting a lot of work, don’t get rid of Cam Akers. Vikings RB Alexander Mattison continues to underwhelm, and if the Vikings’ season continues to go nowhere, Akers might get an audition as a leading man. He and Vikings head coach Kevin O’Connell worked together when they were both with the Rams.
The Philadelphia backfield has turned into the D’Andre Swift show, and Gainwell currently has no standalone value. But he’s still a valuable handcuff as the No. 2 back in one of the league’s best offenses.
