Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Stash Targets

Stash Candidates: Wan’Dale Robinson, Jameson Williams, Skyy Moore

Wan’Dale Robinson flashed in his second NFL game. He was one target behind Daniel Bellinger from tying for the team lead (four). Robinson secured three of those targets for 37 yards and a score. These are the good things for Robinson’s outlook. Now, let’s discuss why he isn’t higher on this list. He only played 23% of the snaps while running 11 routes. He was on the wrong side of a slot split with Richie James. This is only his first game back from injury, so it’s conceivable that Robinson was being worked in. The talent is real. He just needs to continue to earn playing time. Robinson should have opportunities to do so with upcoming matchups against JAC, SEA, HOU and DET.

Jameson Williams again makes the stash list. His talent is undeniable. Just because we haven’t seen it in the NFL yet doesn’t mean he can’t be a league winner. Because of their atrocious defense, the Lions’ offense continues to pile up points in shootouts. That isn’t changing. As I highlighted last week, in Weeks 8-18, Detroit faces five opponents with pass-defense DVOAs of 19th or lower. The upside is there. Stash him now.

Andy Reid, we need a sit-down conversation. Skyy Moore is your best receiver. I know he’s a rookie and came to you from a small school, but it’s time to stop with the foolish games. Moore has now logged three straight games with at least 20 snaps and double-digit routes. It’s only a matter of time before Reid realizes that Mecole Hardman needs to head to the bench permanently. Moore has played well in these small samples, surpassing 1.80 yards per route run in three of five games. Pick him up. Be patient. Good things are coming.
