Week 11 is in the books, and it is time to look ahead to the waiver wire. These are the players you should be targeting on waivers ahead of Week 12 to get ahead of your league rivals.
Running back
Zach Charbonnet, Seattle Seahawks – An oblique injury forced Kenneth Walker to leave the Seahawks’ Week 11 clash with the Rams. Charbonnet stepped up in his absence and produced well. He’s featuring as both a runner and receiver and now seems primed for a bigger workload.
Ty Chandler, Minnesota Vikings – Last week was your best chance to get Chandler on waivers but if he is still available then you should really try and scoop him up. He looked better than Alexander Mattison and his tally of 15 points was good enough for an RB14 finish. This bodes well for next week’s matchup with the Bears.
Wide receiver
Jayden Reed, Green Bay Packers – If there is a wide receiver on this Packers roster that you want on your fantasy team it is Reed. He also ended up leading the Packers with 46 rushing yards in Week 11 too. Reed has now scored 19+ points in each of his last two games. Get him while you still can.
Odell Beckham Jr, Baltimore Ravens – There’s life in the old dog yet. OBJ has begun to blossom in Baltimore and has formed a nice connection with Lamar Jackson. His 15 targets since Week 9 is tied for the most on the team and with Mark Andrews out he is only likely to get more work.
Khalil Shakir, Buffalo Bills – Shakir has begun to establish himself as a key part of this Bills passing game. He was on the field for 73% of offensive snaps in Week 11 and has played at least 70% of snaps in each of the last three games. His 115 yards and 20.5 fantasy points against the Jets were career highs.
Tight end
Isaiah Likely, Baltimore Ravens – With Mark Andrews’ season likely over as a result of an ankle injury, Likely looks set for an increased role. The Ravens and Lamar Jackson love to use their tight ends in the passing game and Likely showed as a rookie that he can be an impactful receiver.
Quarterback
Jordan Love, Green Bay Packers – Love has really begun to find his feet in recent weeks. In Week 11 he scored 20.9 points putting him as QB9 for the week. He’s now finished as QB14 or better in each of his last three games.
