Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Stash Targets
Stash Candidates:
Breece Hall‘s late addition to the injury report brought about a short-lived panic from the fantasy community. The Jets activated Isaiah Davis and Kene Nwangwu, while Braelon Allen reprised his role as short-yardage thumper. Davis caught a touchdown pass and Nwangwu returned a kickoff for a touchdown, while Allen did virtually nothing with his seven touches. But the rookie from Wisconsin is still in the copilot seat in case Hall is unavailable down the stretch.
The Atlanta Falcons have been atrocious on offense for all the talent they put on the field. Kirk Cousins has been entirely to blame for this. Bijan Robinson has been his amazing self throughout, but he has inexplicably come off the field for Tyler Allgeier on passing downs. Allgeier is a quality player but won’t have stand-alone value as long as Robinson is healthy.
The only time the Seattle Seahawks cashed in on a goal-to-go situation on Sunday came on a Zach Charbonnet TD run. Only two pivotal red zone touches went to Kenneth Walker. Never mind Ryan Grubb’s peculiar personnel choices for scoring chances; Walker is considerably more dangerous to a defense than Charbonnet. The UCLA grad is still worthy of a stash as the season winds down.
Christian McCaffrey‘s most recent injury pushes Jordan Mason into FAAB spending spree territory, but don’t forget about explosive rookie Isaac Guerendo. The fourth-round pick from Louisville scored an impressive touchdown through the snow in Buffalo on Sunday night and will be working in tandem with the oft-injured Mason.
James Cook is a machine. Even though Ray Davis has looked awesome in his fleeting moments this season, Buffalo has refused to increase his role behind their dynamic starter. Ty Johnson is even seeing snaps on passing downs, though Davis housed one of the most electric receiving touchdowns the Bills have had all year. I won’t quit the rookie from Kentucky. He will get a ring on my champion fantasy roster, even if he merely stayed ready on the bench the entire time.
