Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Targets

Khalil Shakir (BUF): 6% rostered

• Next Opponents: DEN, NYJ, @PHI
• True value: $2
• Desperate need: $4
• Budget-minded: $1

Analysis: Shakir has taken over as the Bills’ starting slot receiver. When Shakir has been given opportunities, he has flashed, and we could continue to see that in the coming weeks. He has plus matchups in Weeks 10, 15 & 16 against secondaries that all rank inside the top ten in PPR points per target allowed to slot receivers (per Fantasy Points Data). Shakir is a plug-and-play flex play in those weeks.

Jameson Williams (DET): 28% rostered

• Next Opponents: @LAC, CHI, GB
• True value: $2
• Desperate need: $4
• Budget-minded: $1

Analysis: Williams could ascend to a full-time role coming out of the bye. While he has played a part-time role since his return from suspension, his 25% target per route run rate and 15.1 average depth of target (per Fantasy Points Data) are intriguing. That downfield prowess could be on display this week against the Chargers, who have allowed the sixth-most deep passing yards and the fifth-highest depth-adjusted completion rate (per Fantasy Points Data).

Josh Reynolds (DET): 28% rostered

• Next Opponents: @LAC, CHI, GB
• True value: $2
• Desperate need: $4
• Budget-minded: $1

Analysis: Entering Week 9, among 123 qualifying wide receivers, Reynolds ranked 33rd in receiving grade and 43rd in yards per route run (per PFF). Reynolds has posted three top-36 WR weeks this season. With plus matchups against the Chargers, Bears and Packers incoming, Reynolds could add to his WR3 or better finish total.

Noah Brown (HOU): 2% rostered

• Next Opponents: @CIN, ARI, JAX
• True value: $1
• Desperate need: $2
• Budget-minded: $0

Analysis: Brown has had a 16.7% target share over the last two weeks, including his Week 9 blowup against Tampa Bay. Brown body-bagged the Buccaneers’ secondary, hanging 153 receiving yards on them. Investing in the pass catchers tied to the golden arm of C.J. Stroud is wise, but Brown’s time in the starting lineup might be limited. Robert Woods has been sidelined with a foot injury. Once he returns, Brown is likely heading back to the bench, but Woods could miss at least another week. If you’re looking for a decent flex play in Week 10, Brown fits the bill.

Successful In-Season Fantasy Football Management

Once your fantasy football team is drafted, the work is not over. Successful in-season management is crucial to a winning fantasy football season. Here are some tips to help you manage your team effectively throughout the season:

Stay up to date on player news
Keep track of player injuries, suspensions, and other news that may impact their performance. This will help you make informed decisions about which players to start each week.

Monitor the waiver wire
Keep an eye on the waiver wire and be ready to pick up players who may be undervalued or overlooked by other teams. This can provide valuable depth to your roster. Use our waiver wire assistant to view optimal lineups, waiver and trade suggestions, and league analysis.

Analyze matchups
Analyze the upcoming matchups for your players and opponents to determine which players to start in your lineup each week. Look for favorable matchups and take into account the strength of the opposing team’s defense.

Stay active in trades
Be open to trading players with other teams if it will benefit your team. Analyze the potential impact of a trade before making a decision and negotiate with other teams to find a mutually beneficial agreement.

Be prepared for bye weeks
Plan ahead for bye weeks by having backup players ready to fill in for your starters. Avoid having too many players with the same bye week, which can leave your team short-handed.

Don’t overreact to one bad week
Avoid overreacting to one bad week of performance by a player. Take a long-term view of their performance and evaluate their potential moving forward.

Continuously evaluate your roster
Continuously evaluate your roster throughout the season and make adjustments as needed. Be willing to drop underperforming players or make changes to your lineup if necessary.
