Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Targets: Isaiah McKenzie

Isaiah McKenzie (WR – BUF): 45% rostered

  • Next opponents: PIT, @KC, BYE
  • True value: $4
  • Desperate need: $8
  • Budget-minded: $2

Analysis: Before you bid on him, realize that McKenzie sustained a concussion on Sunday and could potentially miss Week 5. McKenzie has compiled 11-97-2 on 15 targets over his last two games. If he keeps getting targets, he’s going to be a worthwhile fantasy asset, because those targets are coming from Josh Allen. Gabriel Davis still hasn’t shown the ability to consistently draw a steady diet of targets, and that bodes well for McKenzie’s involvement.
