The farther we get into the season, the more sparse the waiver wire gets. With that being said, there are still plenty of assets sitting out there for the taking. Let’s see who is there this week.
All of the handcuff RB’s…
So it feels like there are about 150 RBs hurt right now and their backups are players who can start for you right off the waiver wire. A lot of them are owned, but check your waiver wire to see if any of these guys are available in your leagues…
CAR RB Chuba Hubbard
CHI RB Damien Williams
CHI RB Khalil Herbert
KC RB Darryl Williams
SEA RB Alex Collins
NYG RB Devontae Booker
CLE RB Demetric Felton (1.1% Owned)
The Browns were without Nick Chubb this past weekend and in the game, Kareem Hunt left with a calf injury that will keep him out for 4-6 weeks. The browns play on Thursday this week, so if Chubb is not ready to go for the game, Felton is most likely to see a big boost in workload along with fellow RB D’Earnest Johnson.
FAAB Bid Suggestion: $10
IND WR TY Hilton (24.4% Owned)
Hilton returned from injury in week 6 and got his first snaps with QB Carson Wentz. While he saw a modest 4 targets, he looked effective turning them in 80 yards. I expect his targets to keep increasing, especially with a QB that likes to stretch the field like Wentz.

ARI WR AJ Green (29.3% Owned)
If you listened to last weeks show, I told you how my favorite WR target in ARI after Deandre Hopkins was AJ Green. I love his redzone usage and it again paid dividends in week 6. Green was targeted 3 times in the redzone and hauled in a TD. He has failed to score 10 points only 2 times this season in half-PPR scoring formats and he seems to have an established role in this high powered Cardinals offense

ARI TE Zach Ertz (44.3% Owned)
Just 1 day after Ertz started for the Eagles in the absence of Dallas Goedert and scored a TD, he was traded to the TE needy Arizona Cardinals. This is a match made in heaven in my eyes as the Cardinals were really starting to use TE Maxx Williams before his injury and now Ertz can slot right in and take those targets. He’s another TE to add to the dart boards and could even be more than that if he performs up to his potential.
FAAB Bid Suggestion: $20
WFT TE Ricky Seals-Jones (2.1% Owned)
Cody talked on last weeks show about Ricky Seals-Jones and how he loved his usage in the absence of Logan Thomas. Well, Seals-Jones then proceeded to get even more involved in the offense in week 6. If you are someone who missed out on Dalton Schultz or Dawson Knox off the waiver wire a few weeks ago, Seals-Jones could be a great fill in until Logan Thomas returns from his injury.
