Welcome to the latest episode of the FantasyPros Football Podcast. Our weekly waiver wire show is hosted by Dan Harris (@danharris80) and Mike Tagliere (@MikeTagliereNFL). We’ll be interviewing featured experts who will offer insight to help your squads.
Scott Engel of RotoBaller joins us to discuss this week’s top pickups at every position (2:43) and the guys give their thoughts on who it’s time to consider dropping (51:33)! What kind of impact will the injuries to Teddy Bridgewater (3:49) and Drew Brees (5:55) have on their respective offenses? Is Salvon Ahmed (13:56) or Alex Collins (26:15) the best short-term RB add and who is the better long-term bet between Cam Akers (9:05) and Nyheim Hines (14:34)? Will Kalen Ballage (21:57) to lead the Chargers’ backfield until Austin Ekeler returns, does Sammy Watkins (32:06) get too many targets to leave on waivers, and how attractive of a fantasy option is Jameis Winston (44:51) for the foreseeable future?
