Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Targets: David Njoku
David Njoku (TE – CLE): 51% rostered
- Next opponents: @ATL, LAC, NE
- True value: $13
- Desperate need: $18
- Budget-minded: $6
Analysis: After two quiet weeks with his top-four snap share and top 18 route participation, David Njoku was bound to break out. Yes, I know I’m cheating because he’s rostered in just over 50% of Yahoo leagues, but I don’t care. People need to know. If Njoku is out there in your league, you should be picking him up. The upside for a player with his athletic measurables seeing a 32.2% target share like he did against Pittsburgh is ridiculous. Njoku can compete with Amari Cooper for the team lead in targets.
