🔁 Quarterbacks
🧠 These guys all have higher ownership, but grab whoever is available.
🔥 Mac Jones (SFO) Quietly put up QB10 numbers. Brock Purdy’s toe injury might linger, and Mac looks like a competent spot-starter in the meantime.
🚀 CJ Stroud (HOU) QB1 overall this week—and looking like the rookie version of himself again. If he was dropped during the slump, use all your blind bid $$ to get him.
👀 Bryce Young (CAR) I’ve been a skeptic, but I’ll admit it: he looked solid last week. Still not a locked-in starter, but a worthwhile Superflex flyer.
🏃♂️ Running Backs
Some legit league-altering upside here.
💣 Rico Dowdle (CAR) Out of nowhere—RB1 for the week! With Chuba Hubbard hurt, Dowdle exploded. It could become a timeshare, but Dowdle looked like the guy. Big upside grab.
⚔️ Vidal / Haskins (LAC) Omarion Hampton is out 4+ weeks, and now it’s Vidal or Haskins in L.A. No clarity yet—each has flashes of potential, but there’s risk. Pick your dart throw.
🚨Bill Croskey (WAS) Finally. The breakout game we were waiting for. This is why Brian Robinson got shipped to SF. If someone got scared and dropped Croskey, scoop him up immediately.
🎯 Wide Receivers
Mostly depth adds, but a few high-ceiling darts.
🔥 Ryan Flournoy (DAL) Broke 100+ yards, logged in as WR15. Could crash back to earth—but the big-play upside is real. Cheap bid, big reward potential.
🎲 Xavier Hutchinson (HOU) Just 3 catches, but two TDs. Could disappear next week—but you chase upside in deep leagues.
🧊Calvin Ridley (TEN) First good game all year—5 catches, 100+ yards. I’m not fully back on the train, but he’s worth a stash if you have space.
✨Tight Ends
📈 Mason Taylor (NYJ) Rookie alert! 9 catches as Justin Fields’ safety blanket. Expect continued volume as the chemistry grows. Could be this year’s late-season breakout TE.
🧠 Final Thoughts
The bye weeks are brutal—but the wire is still offering chances to find league-winners. This is where you earn playoff berths. Be aggressive, stay sharp, and don’t let up.
See you next week for more! #FantasyFootball #DynastyFootball #WaiverWire #Week6 #IDP #Superflex
