– WR- Green Bay Packers

Valdez-Scantling now has the same amount of targets as Davante Adams through three games this season.  He has now ran away with the title of the Packers number two target. With a nice upcoming schedule with four of the next five weeks Valdez-Scantling has high end flex appeal

Demarcus Robinson– WR – Kansas City Chiefs

John Brown – WR – Buffalo Bills

The fact John Brown is available in leagues is unreal. He’s the Bills top receiver and has at least 50 yards in all three games this season. While he does have a rough matchup next week against the Patriots that could mark the last time you can pick him up on waivers. Act now before it’s too late

DK Metcalf – WR- Seattle Seahawks

Players available in 25-50% of leagues

Ronald Jones– RB – Tampa Bay Buccaneers

When given the opportunity and volume this year Ronald Jones has produced well. Jones netted 121 yards on 15 touches this week against the Giants. In week one Jones had 14 touches which he converted to 93 yards. The big play back is showing burst and playmaking ability, now it’s time to see if the Bucs will realize they should give him the rock. .

Raheem Mostert– RB- San Francisco 49ers

Frank Gore– RB- Buffalo Bills

Nelson Agholor– WR- Philadelphia Eagles

DJ Chark– WR- Jacksonville Jaguars

Chark has been on fire in the Jaguars offense. He has now scored a touchdown in all three games this season and is averaging over 15 yards per reception.  Chark has a ton of upside with his big play ability and is starting to give a nice floor with the volume he’s been getting this season. 

Mecole Hardman– WR – Kansas City Chiefs

Will Dissly – TE – Seattle Seahawks

Jacoby Brissett – QB – Indianapolis Colts

Daniel Jones– QB- New York Giants

What more can you say about Danny Dimes debut other than WOW! The rookie signal caller made it into the NFL record books racking up over 300 yards and an 18 point comeback win in his first career start. Yes this performance was against a lowly Bucs defense but it’s a great sign of things to come for Jones. As for fantasy Jones has a nice rushing ability to help give a floor and should be in a lot of negative game scripts forcing him to throw which gives him upside. 

Gardner Minshew II- QB- Jacksonville Jaguars

Rex Burkhead– RB- New England Patriots

Wayne Gallman– RB- New York Giants

The injury to Saquon Barkley is a devastating one for the Giants and fantasy owners alike. This puts Wayne Gallman in the driver’s seat for the Giants starting running back.  Gallman is nowhere near the player Barkley is and won’t match anything near the production. What he does bring is upside in the pass game and can bang between the tackles. Gallman isn’t in a good enough offense to to be a RB2 but he is a guy who you can start in the flex or play during bye weeks in a pinch. 

Darrel Williams– RB- Kansas City Chiefs

Preston Williams– WR- Miami Dolphins

One of the lone bright spots of the Dolphins seasons has to be Preston Williams. The UDFA has back to back games with over 60 receiving yards. Williams is definitely a pick-up in very deep leagues as far as being able to play. Where Williams does stand out is a potential dynasty league stash who could pay dividends in the next few years when the Dolphins decide to play competitive football. 

Kenny Stills– WR- Houston Texans

Diontae Johnson– WR- Pittsburgh Steelers

Auden Tate– WR – Cincinnati Bengals

Dawson Knox– TE- Buffalo Bills

Dawson Knox had a break out game against the Bengals with 3 catches 67 yards and a TD and adding a ridiculous truck stick to the highlight reel. The numbers aren’t impressive yet but he’s improved every week and so has his targets. In a rough tight end landscape Knox gives you upside that you can get cheap.
