FFT Express - EARLY Week 8 Waiver Wire TARGETS! McGowan, Douglas, Concepcion, Williams, & Others! (10/26 Fantasy Football Podcast)

Eisenberg flags Antonio Williams as a very interesting waiver wire target for Week 8 due to the Terry McLaurin season-ending injury. Williams did not play in Week 7 but is now positioned to receive increased offensive role and opportunity with McLaurin sidelined.

Had eight target game when Diggs was out in London; expected to benefit most without McClure in the lineup, though projections may not reflect this opportunity yet relative to Concepcion and Douglas.

Eisenberg mentions Baker Mayfield as a quarterback option to consider on the waiver wire if you want to stream or bind these players, positioning him as a secondary option behind Brissett and Geno Smith.

Jamie Eisenberg ranks Zonovan Knight as his #1 waiver wire target; Knight is rostered in about 70% of CBS Sports leagues, making him slightly overexposed on that platform but still a priority add.

Eisenberg identifies Caleb Douglas as one of two rookie wide receivers who stood out on the Week 8 waiver wire, positioning him as a breakout candidate worth targeting.

Caleb Douglas has played two full games this season with 94 receiving yards in week one and two touchdowns in week seven; Jamie Eisenberg expects him to continue making plays for the Dolphins offense, which is heading in the right direction post-bye with improved quarterback play from Lake Wells.

Second week in a row as the most targeted tight end for the Rams with Adams out; battled through injuries but expected to be the primary target option rather than high-end touchdown producer.

Option to chase if targeting touchdown upside at the tight end position.

Recommended to stash; at some point he will play and the 49ers receiving core is in poor shape, creating opportunity for him.

Eisenberg includes Devin Singletary on the waiver wire list for Week 8, noting that while Tracy still has a chance to play ahead of him due to a hamstring injury situation with Scadaboo, Singletary remains a relevant option.

Devin Singletary is on Jamie Eisenberg's waiver wire list; Tracy's injury status is uncertain, but Eisenberg believes Tracy still has a chance to play ahead of Singletary in the Giants backfield.

Ranked third among tight end waiver targets; most widely available at 15% roster percentage.

Eisenberg highlights Dylan Samson as a running back with potential based on his role in the passing game, positioning him as a flex-caliber option for Week 8. While Judkins had a strong performance, Eisenberg believes Samson will maintain the passing game role.

Eisenberg identifies Fernando Mendoza as a long-term waiver wire target with imminent starting opportunity. While the 49ers are sticking with Kirk Cousins for now, Mendoza's time to start is coming soon.

Jamie Eisenberg notes that Geno Smith is not peppering Garrett Wilson with targets as expected; instead, the Jets quarterback is using other weapons in the offense, with Cooper stepping up for two straight weeks and Mason Taylor becoming more involved, suggesting a potential decline in Wilson's target volume.

Eisenberg identifies Geno Smith as one of two potential starting-caliber quarterbacks on the Week 8 waiver wire for 12-team leagues, with a favorable matchup against the Raiders.

Ranked second among tight end waiver targets; has had two solid games in a row and gets the Lions this week, which has allowed other tight ends like Tucker Craft to produce well.

At 65% roster percentage; has been awesome with four straight games of consistent production and should be the first tight end to target off waivers.

Hunter Henry is referenced as a number one tight end option; the context suggests tight ends have favorable matchups against the Dolphins, who have struggled against the position for much of the season.

Eisenberg identifies J.J. McCarthy as a long-term waiver wire target, suggesting future starting opportunity as the Vikings appear committed to Kirk Cousins for now but McCarthy's time to start is coming.

Eisenberg identifies Jacoby Brissett as one of two potential starting-caliber quarterbacks on the Week 8 waiver wire for 12-team leagues, with a favorable matchup against Dallas.

Eisenberg identifies Jeremiah Love as the running back with the most potential to start in Week 8, noting he may play against Dallas. He's positioned as the better Cardinals running back compared to Tyler Algier at this point.

Jonah Coleman is rostered in fewer than 40% of leagues on Sleeper and Yahoo (35% on Yahoo/Sleeper), making him a significant waiver wire value play; his rostering percentage is likely to increase.

May make his debut in Week 9; status uncertain, so he's a stash candidate rather than immediate waiver priority.

Jamie Eisenberg is rostering Kalon Black in every league he has because of the 49ers backup running back role; Black got a scare from McCaffrey but Eisenberg knows the historical value of the 49ers backup position.

If Lemon has a good game Monday night against the Commanders in Week 8 and both Smith and Wicks are out again, he would rank third or fourth on the waiver wire receiver priority list; contingent on Monday performance.

Had four catches for 83 yards at Houston and eight targets the week before; getting a lot of love from QB JJ McCarthy.

Eisenberg mentions Malik Willis as a quarterback option to consider on the waiver wire if you want to stream or bind these players, positioning him as a secondary option behind Brissett and Geno Smith.

Mason Taylor has been the Jaguars' lead tight end for the last couple of weeks ahead of Sadiq and is just starting to produce; he scored two touchdowns against the Dolphins, who have struggled against tight ends for much of the season, providing a favorable matchup context.

Jamie Eisenberg expresses continued interest in Michael Mayer as a tight end option, noting he has produced 12.2 PPR points or more in three of his last four games; however, the Rams defense is strong against tight ends, making this a matchup to monitor.

Struggled against the Rams, who are really good against tight ends; this is a matchup to avoid for Mayer.

Eisenberg notes that while Michael Penix is playing well, he carries a tough matchup in Week 8, making him a less attractive waiver wire option compared to Brissett and Geno Smith.

Jamie Eisenberg identifies McGowan as the top waiver wire target for Week 8, suggesting he could trigger panic spending. The rationale centers on potential trade value: with the Giants' offense struggling and Daniel Jones committed again, teams may look to trade McGowan before injury risk materializes, especially given his strong performance against Minnesota's defense. Eisenberg advises spending as much waiver wire money as possible to secure him.

Jamie Eisenberg ranks Seth McGowan as his #2 waiver wire target; McGowan is rostered in about 70% of CBS Sports leagues, making him slightly overexposed on that platform.

Expected to benefit most clearly from McClure's absence; should see increased target opportunity in the offense.

Jamie Eisenberg suggests Travis Hunter as a potential fly-around receiver option coming off a strong game before his bye week, noting he was injured going into his bye last year but has returned with solid production this year.
