That is as a result of Tuesday at 4 pm ET is the NFL commerce deadline, and any potential offers might impression your waiver wire strikes, which will probably be mirrored right here.
Whereas no main offensive trades might occur, simply know that we’ll have you ever lined if one thing does go down earlier than it’s essential to submit your waiver claims Tuesday night time. Personally, I am hoping Tuesday is a loopy day in the case of the NFL commerce market.
So far as accidents go for Week 8, we bought comparatively fortunate. Cooper Kupp (ankle) appears to have averted a severe damage, Mark Andrews (shoulder) might be obtainable in Week 9 and hopefully Gus Edwards (hamstring) might play as nicely. The one guys who have been harm in Week 8 possible not obtainable in Week 9, not less than as of Monday, will probably be Rashod Bateman (foot), DeVante Parker (knee), Mark Ingram (knee) and Irv Smith (ankle).
There are six groups on a bye in Week 9 — Cleveland, Dallas, Denver, the Giants, Pittsburgh and San Francisco — so lots of Fantasy managers might be lacking a number of stars. It ought to make for an energetic week on the waiver wire as lots of you’re on the lookout for key replacements.

Week 9 Waivers
- On a bye: Dak Prescott, Russell Wilson, Daniel Jones, Jimmy Garoppolo, Kenny Pickett and Jacoby Brissett
- Accidents: Ryan Tannehill (ankle), Matt Ryan (shoulder), Carson Wentz (finger) and Sam Darnold (ankle)
- Verify to see if obtainable: Jared Goff (84 p.c rostered). Goff was a bit of unfortunate with simply 19 Fantasy factors in Week 8 in opposition to Miami since he handed for 321 yards and one landing. His finest soccer this season has been at house (averaging 28.0 Fantasy factors per sport), and he will get the Packers in Detroit in Week 9. It is not a straightforward matchup, however with six quarterbacks on a bye you may need to use Goff as a low-end starter in deeper leagues.
- Drop candidates: Daniel Jones (90 p.c rostered), Matthew Stafford (83 p.c), Russell Wilson (70 p.c) and Jimmy Garoppolo (69 p.c). Jones, Wilson and Garoppolo aren’t value stashing whereas on a bye. Jones was a serious letdown in Week 8 at Seattle with simply 9 Fantasy factors and solely has two video games this season with 20-plus factors. Wilson has one sport this season with greater than 19 Fantasy factors. Garoppolo may be value stashing in deeper leagues with 4 video games in a row with not less than 20 Fantasy factors, however he is but to high 22 factors on the 12 months. Until he is been your starter all season lengthy, you’ll be able to drop him now and attempt to get him again in Week 10 if wanted. … Stafford has one sport this season with greater than 19 Fantasy factors, which was Week 2. It is arduous to belief him in Week 9 at Tampa Bay, particularly if Cooper Kupp (ankle) is at lower than 100%.

operating backs
- On a bye: Nick Chubb, Kareem Hunt, Ezekiel Elliott, Tony Pollard, Melvin Gordon, Latavius Murray, Saquon Barkley, Najee Harris and Christian McCaffrey
- Accidents: Ezekiel Elliott (knee), Gus Edwards (hamstring), James Conner (ribs), Chuba Hubbard (ankle), JK Dobbins (knee), Cordarrelle Patterson (knee), Cam Akers (private), Elijah Mitchell (knee), Joshua Kelley (knee), Kyren Williams (ankle), Mark Ingram (knee) and Damien Williams (ribs)
- Verify to see if obtainable: Chuba Hubbard (71 p.c rostered) and Isiah Pacheco (68 p.c). Hubbard ought to be the No. 2 operating again behind D’Onta Foreman if Hubbard performs in Week 9 on the bengals. However shifting ahead, Hubbard may show to be extra helpful than Foreman given his anticipated function within the passing sport. Within the first sport with out Christian McCaffrey in Week 7 in opposition to Tampa Bay, Hubbard had 11 complete touches (two catches on three targets) for 73 complete yards and a landing earlier than hurting his ankle. He ought to be rostered in all leagues. … Pacheco began for the chiefs in Week 7 at San Francisco, forward of Clyde Edwards-Helaire, and we’ll see if that continues to be a everlasting transfer in Week 9 in opposition to the Titans. Pacheco solely had eight carries for 43 yards in opposition to the 49ers, and Edwards-Helaire and Jerick McKinnon nonetheless bought loads of work. However coming off the bye, hopefully Pacheco is headed for a much bigger function. He ought to be stashed in all leagues to seek out out.
- Drop candidates: Damien Harris (91 p.c rostered), JK Dobbins (66 p.c) and Jeff Wilson (63 p.c). In shallow PPR leagues, it may be time to maneuver on from Harris, who’s clearly behind Rhamondre Stevenson for the Patriots as of now. In two video games again after lacking Week 6 with an ankle sprain, Harris has mixed for 14 carries for 45 yards and no touchdowns, together with three catches for 17 yards on 4 targets. You are not beginning Harris in Week 9 in opposition to the colts, and the Patriots have a bye in Week 10. … Dobbins is value stashing in case you have an IR spot, however do not hold him in your bench. He is not eligible to play till Week 12 on the earliest, and the Ravens may be cautious with him and maintain him out longer than that to ensure he is 100% for a possible playoff run. … If you wish to stash Wilson with the hope he is the handcuff for Christian McCaffrey that is nice, however understand that Elijah Mitchell (knee) might return after San Francisco’s bye in Week 9. Whereas McCaffrey is wholesome, Wilson could have a restricted function, and he might fall to 3rd on the depth chart when Mitchell returns.

huge receivers
- On a bye: Amari Cooper, Donovan Peoples-Jones, CeeDee Lamb, Michael Gallup, Courtland Sutton, Jerry Jeudy, Wan’Dale Robinson, Darius Slayton, Diontae Johnson, George Pickens, Chase Claypool, Deebo Samuel and Brandon Aiyuk
- Accidents: Cooper Kupp (ankle), Ja’Marr Chase (hip), Deebo Samuel (hamstring), Keenan Allen (hamstring), Adam Thielen (knee), Mike Williams (ankle), Allen Lazard (shoulder), Marquise Brown (foot), Michael Thomas (foot), Rashod Bateman (foot), DeVante Parker (knee), Corey Davis (knee), Jahan Dotson (hamstring), Nico Collins (groin), Russell Gage (hamstring), Jarvis Landry (ankle), Treylon Burks (toe), Christian Watson (concussion), Randall Cobb (ankle), DJ Chark (ankle), Kenny Golladay (knee), Josh Palmer (concussion) and Noah Brown (foot)
- Verify to see if obtainable: Allen Robinson (75 p.c rostered) and Garrett Wilson (74 p.c). If Cooper Kupp (ankle) cannot play in Week 9 then Robinson could be value utilizing as a No. 3 fantasy receivers in all leagues. He is been a catastrophe all season with simply two touchdowns and no video games with greater than 63 receiving yards, however his targets would spike in opposition to the Buccaneers if Kupp is out. … Within the first sport with out Breece Corridor (ACL), the jets have been compelled to throw in Week 8 in opposition to New England, and Wilson had his most targets (seven) since Zach Wilson changed Joe Flacco in Week 4. Wilson completed with six catches for 115 yards, and Corey Davis (knee) was additionally out. The Jets may be throwing much more shifting ahead with out Corridor, and Wilson seems to be like he’ll profit in a giant approach.
- Drop candidates: Rashod Bateman (85 p.c rostered), Drake London (81 p.c), Curtis Samuel (76 p.c), Hunter Renfrow (68 p.c) and Marquise Goodwin (62 p.c). Bateman goes to overlook “a couple of weeks” along with his foot damage, in line with coach John Harbaugh, and there isn’t any purpose to stash him now, particularly since Baltimore has a bye in Week 10. … London continues to be a non- issue for Fantasy managers given the Falcons run-first offense, and he has now scored seven PPR factors or much less in 5 video games in a row. … Samuel may be value holding in PPR leagues, however he hasn’t scored a landing since Week 2 and has 62 receiving yards or much less in six video games in a row. In non-PPR leagues, it is simple to maneuver on from Samuel as a stash candidate. … Even in a sport the place Davante Adams struggled and Darren Waller (hamstring) was out in Week 8 at New Orleans, Renfrow was nonetheless a non-factor with one catch for six yards on two targets. He is now scored eight PPR factors or much less in 4 of 5 video games this 12 months, and his excessive for the season is 10 PPR factors. … We mentioned so as to add Goodwin final week with the possibility DK Metcalf would miss time with a knee damage. However Metcalf was in a position to play in Week 8 in opposition to the Giants, and Goodwin managed simply 4 catches for 33 yards on 5 targets. Goodwin will solely be Fantasy related if Metcalf or Tyler Lockett have been to overlook any time.

Week 9 Waiver Precedence Checklist
- On a bye: David Njoku, Harrison Bryant, Dalton Schultz, Greg Dulcich, Pat Freiermuth and George Kittle
- Accidents of be aware: Mark Andrews (shoulder), Darren Waller (hamstring), Irv Smith (ankle), David Njoku (ankle), Daniel Bellinger (eye) and Cameron Brate (neck)
- Verify to see if obtainable: Dalton Schultz (78 p.c rostered) and Gerald Everett (74 p.c). I am hopeful that Schultz turned the nook in Week 8 in opposition to Chicago along with his finest sport since Week 1 when he had six catches for 74 yards on seven targets in opposition to the Bears. Dak Prescott appears again to his previous self following a five-game absence with a thumb damage, and Schultz additionally seems to be wholesome after battling a knee damage since Week 2. He ought to be 100% after the cowboys Bye in Week 9, and Schultz has top-five upside when he and Prescott are wholesome. … Everett might be the No. 1 or 2 goal for Justin Herbert with Mike Williams (ankle) harm, and Keenan Allen (hamstring) additionally missed follow Monday after the Chargers‘Bye in Week 8. Everett, together with Josh Palmer, ought to proceed to be a favourite goal for Herbert with these accidents at receiver. Everett has scored not less than 11 PPR factors in 4 of seven video games this 12 months and has not less than six targets in all however one sport over that span.
- Drop candidates: Irv Smith (74 p.c rostered) and David Njoku (68 p.c). Smith is not anticipated to play in Week 9 at Washington and is taken into account week-to-week after hurting his ankle in opposition to the Cardinals in Week 8. He hasn’t been productive sufficient to roster whereas he is out with an damage. … Njoku has a bye in Week 9 and won’t return to motion in Week 10 from the ankle damage he suffered in Week 7. In deeper leagues it is best to maintain onto him, however it may be arduous to justify stashing him if it’s essential to add one other tight finish or assist at a unique place. Hopefully, Njoku is again to 100% sooner moderately than later as a result of he was having a breakout season previous to his damage.
