NHL Best Bets for Tuesday (11/19)
Kenneth Le
The NFL landscape continues to shift, as trades and injuries reshape fantasy football lineups around the league. There’s no way to predict injuries, unfortunately, but of you’ve been keeping up with our waiver wire watchlists over the past couple weeks, you could have found DeAndre Hopkins before he got sent from Will Levis in Tennessee to Patrick Mahomes in Kansas City. There isn’t an opportunity quite as obviously enticing as that one this week, but we can hopefully keep you a step or two ahead of the curve as player values continue to change.
This Waiver Wire Watchlist column uses Aaron Schatz’s DVOA metrics and FTN’s other advanced statistics and charting data to identify players whose short-term matchups make them compelling streamers and whose workload and efficiency trends have them poised for fantasy breakouts. And it aims to identify them a week before their breakouts. Why exhaust your FAAB or waiver priority to win the next Dobbins or Likely when you can add him now for free?
Reminder: This list was put together in the lead-in to Week 8, looking forward to the players who could be popular waiver wire targets ahead of Week 9. If you have a roster spot to play with, these are free agent options you could grab early to beat the waiver buzz.
All of these players are below 50% rostership on one of ESPN or Yahoo unless otherwise specified.
Quarterbacks
Derek Carr, QB, New Orleans Saints (13%/13%)
