Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Advice: Drop or Hold?
Droppable:
Kyler Murray is expected to return to the Cardinals’ lineup in Week 10, which means that Josh Dobbs has only one game left in his run as Arizona’s starting quarterback. Unfortunately, that run will end against a strong Browns defense. Dobbs isn’t a viable streaming option this week and can be jettisoned.
Since Week 3, Jordan Love has averaged 219.2 passing yards per game and 6.0 yards per attempt, with five TD passes and eight interceptions. The last three of those games have been against the Raiders, Broncos and Vikings, so it’s not as if we can blame Love’s struggles on tough defensive matchups. If you’re still holding him, cut him loose and stream the position.
McKinnon is still being rostered in 35% of Yahoo leagues, which is hard to fathom considering that he’s averaging 2.6 rushing yards and 15.8 receiving yards per game. Granted, McKinnon does have a knack for finding the end zone, with 10 touchdowns last year and two touchdowns on only 26 carries this year. But good luck figuring out exactly when McKinnon is going to score his touchdowns.
