Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Stash Targets: Week 9
Running Back Waiver Wire Stash Candidates
Braelon Allen had double-digit carries for the second time this season on Sunday, carrying 12 times for 32 yards and a touchdown in the Jets’ loss to the Patriots. The talented rookie has considerable implied value as the backup to Breece Hall but very little stand-alone value since his usage has been unpredictable.
Blake Corum is purely a lottery ticket. He’s getting a handful of snaps in every game, but the Rams’ backfield is still the Kyren Williams show. Kyren is one of the most valuable assets in fantasy because of his heavy workload and his prowess at the goal line. Corum had a wildly productive college career at Michigan, and if an injury ever forced the Rams to plug Corum into Kyren’s role, Corum would presumably become a valuable asset himself.
Ty Chandler is a dual run-catch threat who’s one of the more valuable handcuffs in fantasy, backing up Aaron Jones in Minnesota.
Zach Charbonnet clearly isn’t going to steal work from Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker III when Walker is playing so well. But Charbonnet is an effective downhill runner who also offers some utility as a pass catcher, which means he’d have immense value if Walker were to go down.
Rookie Kimani Vidal of Troy University has become the primary backup to RB J.K. Dobbins, who has overcome a major knee injury and a torn Achilles. The Chargers are one of the run-heaviest teams in the league, and if Dobbins were to incur additional injury misfortune, Vidal would stand to benefit.
