Fantasy Impact:

Halloween becomes Christmas for Tyrod Taylor. He gets a 6-foot-5 target who had 1,008 yards in his rookie year in 2014 and 941 yards in 2016 with Carolina, totaling 16 touchdowns in those two seasons (he missed 2015 with a torn ACL). In eight games this year, he has 32 catches for 475 yards and two touchdowns. This is a huge upgrade in Buffalo's passing game, especially for Taylor's touchdown potential. While Benjamin may not be ready for Thursday's game against the Jets, Taylor's fantasy upside going forward just shot into solid QB1 range. If for some reason he's available in your league, pounce on the waiver wire.
