Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Advice: Drop or Hold?

DROP RECOMMENDATIONS

Droppable:

Let’s summon up the Grandpa Simpson revolving-door GIF for Emari Demercado. The Cardinals’ rookie running back was a waiver-wire darling a week ago, when it appeared he might be first in line to fill in for the injured James Conner. But Arizona deployed a three-man backfield on Sunday. Demercado’s 33 snaps led the Cardinals’ RBs, but Demercado had just three touches (two carries, one catch), while Keaontay Ingram had 12 touches and Damien Williams had nine. Back to the discard pile for this undrafted free agent.

Darnell Mooney has been held without a catch in three games this season. It appears the Chicago passing game can support only one fantasy-viable wide receiver, and that’s D.J. Moore.

With Javonte bac from a hip injury in Week 6 and talented rookie Jaleel McLaughlin continuing to get work, Samaje Perine has slid to No. 3 in the Broncos’ RB pecking order. No need to keep rostering him.
