Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Targets: Isiah Pacheco
Isiah Pacheco (RB – KC): 24% rostered
- Next opponents: @LAC, LAR, @CIN
- True value: $6
- Desperate need: $11
- Budget-minded: $3
Analysis: The backfield in Kansas City is a bit more clear after the Chiefs’ win over the Jaguars in Week 10. Pacheco all but phased out Clyde Edwards-Helaire, which honestly should have happened a long time ago. Pacheco and his running mate Jerick McKinnon formed a nice thunder and lightning duo that the team can certainly work with down the stretch. The upcoming date with the run-funnel Chargers defense should be a really nice spot for Pacheco to banish CEH for good.
