We’ve changed things up for FAAB week 11: All the potential waiver wire steals are listed. If you don’t see a player here, he is either owned in too many leagues (~50%) or he is worth zero. Feel free to ask about specific players in the comments.
FAAB Week 11
Quarterback |
FAAB (%) |
Notes |
Case Keenum |
1 |
Good matchups week 12 and 13, but Bridgewater could be back by then |
Jay Cutler |
1 |
Soft matchup this week (TB), but every other opponent is strong ROS |
Blake Bortles |
1 |
People forget he’s a great fantasy QB every year. Soft schedule ROS, except for a Week 14 tilt against Seattle. WR core is annihilated, however |
Ryan Fitzpatrick |
2 |
A serviceable backup this week against Miami. Could gel with that offense and be a smash hit ROS, because TB would be dumb to bring Winston back this season |
Brett Hundley |
0 |
Not a good pickup this week(BAL), but consider grabbing him out of FA for TB-Cle weeks 14-15 |
Running Back |
FAAB (%) |
Notes |
Lactavius Murray |
51 |
If he’s on your waiver wire and you see him on your waiver wire, don’t be alarmed when you start lactating uncontrollably. This might be your last chance to get a 15+ carry-per-game guy on a decent offense |
Rex Burkhead |
1 |
The New England RB lottery tickets should always cost 1% |
Dion Lewis |
5 |
No longer a lottery ticket, as he’s scored 5 or more in HPPR his last 6 games |
Samaje Perine |
5 |
If you need a 1-2 week fill-in, he’s good. Not a ROS play, though, as Rob Kelley should return |
Jamaal Williams |
26 |
Might pan out to nothing, but could be the lead back on an offense that is growing stronger |
Austin Ekeler |
1 |
Despite strong performance, his fumble cost SD the game. |
Wide Receiver |
FAAB (%) |
Notes |
Jamison Crowder |
10 |
Seems to be coming around to preseason expectations. Far from a sure thing, however |
Corey Davis |
18 |
Almost had a touchdown, but fumbled. 10 targets in the last game |
Chester Rogers |
0 |
On a bye week, playing for the Colts. Hard to get behind this guy, despite 6 catches last week |
Marquis Goodwin |
0 |
On a bye, too hot and cold to make a reliable plug-and-play option |
Tight End |
FAAB (%) |
Notes |
Charles Clay |
0 |
Still injured a bit, tough matchup. Wait. |
Garrett Celek |
0 |
Tempting, until you realize he will sit on your bench both this week (bye) and next (SEA) |
Jermaine Gresham |
2 |
A killer one-week play. Stanton has hit him in the red zone in both his starts, and they play a woeful Houston secondary this week |
