Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups to Target

Jauan Jennings (SF): 31% rostered

• Next Opponents: NE, ARI, @SEA
• True value: $5
• Desperate Need: $8
• Budget-minded: $3

Analysis: Well, apparently, we were all misinformed. We were told by many (myself included) that it was “Brandon Aiyuk week.” Jennings said loudly, “Excuse me. I’d like a word.” Jennings exploded with a 40% target share, 11 receptions, 175 receiving yards and three scores in the 49ers’ losing effort. Obviously, Jennings won’t put up this type of week-winning stat line every game while Deebo Samuel is out, but he will remain a steady contributor for an offense that injuries have ravaged. As long as Samuel and George Kittle are out, Jennings will be the No. 2 option in this offense. He has plus matchups in each of the next two games against New England and Arizona, which have allowed the 10th-most and 11th-most fantasy points per game to wide receivers.

Darnell Mooney (ATL): 26% rostered

• Next Opponents: NO, TB, @CAR
• True value: $4
• Desperate Need: $6
• Budget-minded: $2

Analysis: Mooney has proven over the last two games that last year’s falloff was the outlier. The talent that captivated us in previous seasons is still there. Over the last two weeks, Mooney has averaged 7.5 targets and 77 receiving yards per game as an integral part of Atlanta’s passing attack. He has operated as the No. 2 behind Drake London, essentially pushing Kyle Pitts into a tertiary role. Mooney faces an uphill battle next week against the Saints secondary before some flex-worthy matchups against the Bucs and Panthers.

Alexander Mattison (LV): 31% rostered

• Next Opponents: CLE, @DEN, PIT
• True value: $4
• Desperate Need: $7
• Budget-minded: $1

Analysis: Mattison has never really been an exciting player to roster in fantasy, but he has caused an uproar in the fantasy community with his new role as a touchdown vulture. Mattison has now scored in each of the Raiders’ first three contests, despite virtually no production on any of his other opportunities. It takes a real sadist to add him off of waivers hoping his rage-inducing touchdown streak continues.

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.
