Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups to Target

Ray Davis (BUF): 21% rostered

• Next Opponents: @IND, KC, BYE
• True value: $3
• Desperate Need: $7
• Budget-minded: $1

Analysis: I haven’t the foggiest idea why it was Ty Johnson who saw the field before Ray Davis in Week 9 to spell James Cook. Nothing against Johnson, but Davis exploded for 17 fantasy points on six touches. His 67-yard touchdown reception was electric and exhibited Davis’ penchant for shaking off tackles and his underrated long speed and agility. While it probably isn’t feasible to expect this sort of game every week from the rookie from Northern California, he has everyone’s attention as another key weapon on the high-octane Bills.

Quentin Johnston (LAC): 15% rostered

• Next Opponents: TEN, CIN, BAL
• True value: $4
• Desperate Need: $6
• Budget-minded: $2

Analysis: We need to start taking Johnston seriously at this point. This is his third game of the season with at least 44 receiving yards and a score. Sunday against the Browns, Johnston played 68% of the Chargers’ offensive snaps, seeing an 18.5% target share and producing 118 receiving yards and a score. Johnston should be a strong flex moving forward, especially against Cincy and Baltimore. The Bengals and Ravens have allowed the seventh-most and the most fantasy points per game, respectively, to perimeter wide receivers (per Fantasy Points Data).

Bo Nix (DEN): 34% rostered

• Next Opponents: @KC, ATL, @LV
• True value: $2
• Desperate Need: $4
• Budget-minded: $1

Analysis: We got more modest numbers from Bo Nix on Sunday. He still put up a respectable 17.72 fantasy points despite not scoring a single touchdown. The Ravens’ defense stiffened up for the first time in weeks. A date with the division-rival Chiefs at Arrowhead seems like a tough test for a rookie, but his rushing upside provides a safe floor if you’re low on FAAB.

Drake Maye (NE): 11% rostered

• Next Opponents: @CHI, LAR, @MIA
• True value: $1
• Desperate Need: $2
• Budget-minded: $0

Analysis: I want to offer you a hypothetical situation. You’re up a creek without a paddle at QB and are running low on FAAB. All the good quarterbacks are rostered in your league. You need a cheap streamer who can run. May I interest you in Drake Maye? He looked horrendous passing against Tennessee, so how did he manage 15.74 fantasy points? A whopping 95 rushing yards is how. Even against a brutally difficult Chicago defense this week, the rookie from North Carolina can pop off and win you a matchup. He’s a wild child, but that Jameis Winston style of play can be fantasy gold if you’re feeling frisky enough for the risky.

Mike Gesicki (CIN): 13% rostered

• Next Opponents: @BAL, @LAC, BYE
• True value: $4
• Desperate Need: $6
• Budget-minded: $2

Analysis: With Tee Higgins out in Week 9, it was wheels up for Gesicki. Prior to his meeting with the Raiders on Sunday, in the three games without Higgins, Gesicki effectively operated as the team’s WR2 with a 20.6% target share, a 21.9% air-yard share, 2.98 yards per route run, and a 25.3% first-read share (per Fantasy Points Data). In Week 9, he continued this trend with a 15.3% target share, 100 receiving yards, and two scores. The tight end could keep up this amazing run in Week 10, as Tee Higgins isn’t a lock to return, and Gesicki has another smash matchup. The Ravens have allowed the second-most receiving yards per game and the ninth-most fantasy points per game to tight ends.
