Time to beat the waiver wire for week 11 on FFT Express.
All right. What's up and welcome. Dave is here with a list.
He's taking names and beating waiver wires. He's got players that you should go get now before it's too late.
Only two teams on a buy Colts and Saints next week. What's up, Dave? How are we doing?
I'm all out of bubble gum. The big stash and an emphasis on staff.
This is not a player that we're going to talk about as somebody that you can add off the waiver wire and start right away.
This is strictly a stash for week 10 to see what happens moving forward.
Sean Tucker running back, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, better efficiency than Rashad White for three straight weeks,
had a goal line touchdown in week eight, was not even close to being in garbage time,
had nearly as many carries in week eight as Rashad White needed better with them.
Again, I'm just looking to stash to see what happens here.
we know that Bucky Irving with his foot and his shoulder could be out a while.
It's discouraging that he wasn't practicing coming out of the buy.
This is a running back, and we're desperate for running backs, Adam.
This is a running back that I'm putting on my bench just to see what happens this week.
If he ends up being pretty good, maybe he ends up being a factor for us moving forward.
All right.
First thing you should do after doing that when you're trying to beat the waiver wire is look at which teams are playing Cincinnati and Dallas.
And that always gives us, not even joking, right?
but you can throw the Jets on there too probably yeah
Pittsburgh's facing Cincinnati
and uh Dallas is at Las Vegas on Monday night
and the Jets have New England on Thursday
so that gives you Aaron Rogers if you want to go pick them up
Gino Smith is a possibility here maybe Trey Tucker
yeah if you're watching this before the Thursday night game
both those players would make sense sure right good point okay so anyway
who else should we go to quarterback I'll go to any position you want
bud quarterback is good with me you're trying to replace jane daniels how about these guys with tough
matchups in week 11 baker mayfield justin field sam darnald jerry golf bow nicks so maybe look for that
second quarterback you mention aaron rogers he would be on the list joe flacko going up against
pittsburgh we know what he did of the sealers when they faced off a few weeks ago but they're rostered in too
many leagues so let's pivot to jacobi brissette the new starting quarterback of the arizona cardinals
70% available.
Don't want to start him this week against Seattle.
But man, if he beats up the Seahawks
after he's beat up three other opponents now,
you're going to love him against San Francisco,
who coming into this week has allowed at least 23.6 fantasy points
to four of the last five quarterbacks that they've faced.
If you can't get your hands on Berset,
then you're looking at J.J. McCarthy.
You're looking at Michael Pennix.
You're looking at Marcus Mariotta,
but really the prize that quarterback would be percent.
All right.
I like McCarthy against Chiquette.
Chicago, too.
All right, some possibilities there, running back.
And we already talked about the stash of Sean Tucker.
We'll talk about some other running backs you could stash.
But if you're just in a major desperation spot for week 10 and maybe week 11,
Devin Singletary is at the top of the list.
I know it's gross.
10 touches in week 9.
Can he build off of that?
You see the giant starter the rest of the season.
Maybe you speculate on that.
Again, beggars can't be choosers at this point in the year.
Imari Di Mercado would be next up.
He had 15 touches in week nine, and he looked pretty good,
but we know Trey Benson's eventually coming back,
and he's at Seattle this week against the 49ers next week.
Torell Jennings would be next up,
but he's in that same boat as Demarcato or Rondre Stevenson
will eventually come back, and when he does,
that's going to hurt Torell Jennings.
Other stash running backs,
these are players that you're just going to throw on your bench,
see what's happening.
Devin Neal with the Saints, and they're on by in week 11,
so he'd have to have a really good week 10,
for you to carry them through week 11,
basal tootin with the Jaguars.
And Adam, I noticed that Jared Patterson
looked a little better than Kamani Vidal last week,
and he was the one salting the game away for the Chargers.
And I wonder if it's worth, in those deep, deep leagues, man,
because Jared Patterson's available in 98% of leagues,
is he worth stashing away just in case the Chargers
pull a fast one on us and they use
him more in week number 10.
It's something that you could at least consider, but I do like Sean Tucker better than
those guys.
And a friendly reminder, if I may, this is the time of year to get the backup to your best
running backs, assuming that the backup is like at least 70% as good as the starter.
It's good to have Brian Robinson, Jr.
If you've got Christian McCaffrey, it's not as good to have Amir Abdullah if you've
got Jonathan Taylor.
So you're going to have to figure it out a little bit based on the stud running back that
you have.
but this is the time of year where you do want to handcuff your RVs.
In the same vein as Jarrett Patterson,
I wonder if Chris Rodriguez is going to make any inroads in Washington.
I don't think so.
He kind of beat up on backups last week.
But they do have the dolphins in week 11.
So any type of change, Rodriguez is only 9% roster.
We'll do some wide receivers and tight ends and DSTs when we come back on FFT Express.
I have to tell you about this game-changing product that you,
used before a night out drinking. It's called pre-alcohol. Zbiotic pre-alcohol drink is the world's first
genetically engineered probiotic. Here's how it works. When you drink, alcohol gets converted
into a toxic byproduct in the gut. It's a buildup of this byproduct, not dehydration.
That's the blame for those rough days after drinking. Pre-alcohol produces an enzyme to break
this byproduct down. Just remember to make pre-alcohol your first drink of the night,
drink responsibly, and you'll feel your best tomorrow. A couple weeks back, so on my morning jacket
at the Brooklyn Paramount, but I had an early morning tea time the next day all the way in New Jersey.
Had my prebiotic, pre-alcohol, went out, enjoyed the concert, woke up the next morning,
got to the tea time in time, and pared the first hole.
Make the most of every toast, tailgate, and touch down this holiday season.
Just don't forget to bring pre-alcohol along for the ride.

out. We're back. Okay, wide receivers to look at Dave, Richard. We are replacing Michael Pittman, Chris Olavay, Josh Downs, Alec Pierce. You already know all the other wide receivers who are hurt. I don't have to repeat that list. I don't want to rub salt in the wounds. Two wide receivers that you can pick up off the waiver wire and use this week. Parker, Washington, as much as we talked about him, still out there in 68% of leagues. If it's a PPR league, he's not bad as a flex. Same thing for DeMario Douglas, if he can do that again against Tampa Bay.
I do like the match of form as long as Kishon Booty is not playing for the Patriots.
Stash candidates for Week 11, Christian Watson of the Packers, 35% available.
So he meets that threshold that we talk about.
He's against the Giants.
Calvin Austin against Cincinnati.
And Cedric Tillman, as long as he's on IR, you can stash him on your IRA.
And sometimes you can take a player, stash him on IR, and then he's activated, but you don't have to move him.
And then you kind of carry him for free.
It depends on your league.
scoring or actually not scoring your league's in your lineup set get your lineups before he gets
activated yeah yeah yeah you've got to do something like that but he's someone that you might be
able to sneak on your roster and just see what his utilization is for week number 10 i'm assuming
that he's going to play in week 10 does he take targets away from the tight ends there who the
heck knows he's taken on the jets that's a favorable matchup so maybe against baltimore in week 11
you could consider cedric tilman as well as kind of like a desperation type wide receiver 3
All right, tight ends, Dave.
You're replacing Tyler Warren.
You're replacing Joanne Johnson.
We'll talk about him in a second.
Tucker Kraft is on IR.
Hunter Henry, Zach Ertz, T.J. Hawkinson, they suck.
So who can you go to the waiver wire and pick up?
David Nujoku, still available in 41% of leagues.
Jets this week, Ravens next week.
But Joanne Johnson literally woke up this morning, Adam, and thought, I wonder how many leagues
Joanne Johnson's in.
And he's available in more than half of CBS Sports Leagues.
we've talked about them all week, double-digit PPR points in three straight games.
Saints just traded away Rashid Shihid.
They're on buy in week 11.
But if he has a good week 10, you'll carry him through the buy, and it's Carolina in
week 10.
Other tight ends that you could start this week and next week, K.
Dot and Dalton, Dalton, Schultz, Theo Johnson, Schultz is the only one who's available
in more than half of CBS Sports Leagues.
And three tight ends, maybe four, five, six.
All right, I got a long list of tight ends to stash.
the best one to stash, not start, but stash, is Luke Musgrave, just to see if he's used anywhere
reasonably close to Tucker Kraft in Green Bay.
Colson Loveland, after all the targets he got last week, absolutely should be on fantasy
rosters.
He's available in 43% of leagues.
And going back to that matchup between the Steelers and the Bengals, Pat Fryermuth,
double-digit, half-PPR points to eight tight ends this year by Cincinnati.
Frymermoose had four more targets in three straight, including
Six targets, five catches, 111 yards, two touchdowns against Cincinnati in week number seven.
You could do worse than stashing Friermuth on your team, but Musgrave, Loveland would be ahead of him.
We're going to close it out with some DSTs.
So the one that I like, I don't love a lot of the Ds, unless the Ravens are out there, but they're widely rostered.
Same thing with the Chargers.
The Chiefs DST gets Denver in week 11.
Obviously, you can't use them this week unless you're a lunatic that wants a zero from your DST spot,
but they're out there in half of CBS leagues.
You can pick them up.
You could pick up the Falcons DST, 65% available.
They've got the Panthers.
And if you're a risk taker, if you like to dive out of airplanes and not sure if your parachute works or not,
the commander's DST at Miami, 79% available, three of the past four DSTs to take on the dolphins
and put up double-digit fantasy points.
Yeah, I hope you have a good DST for next week.
is not looking good there.
Good luck to you, everyone.
Okay.
Was that?
Want to go skydiving?
No, not with you.
You're way too risky for me.
That is Dave Richard.
I'm out of the reason why.
Would you go skydiving without me?
No.
My brother went skydiving.
Would you?
Yeah, absolutely.
Yeah, he went on doing that before I croak.
Yeah, I'm not going to do that ever.
Might be the reason why I croak.
Yeah, exactly.
You let me know how it is.
There's an indoor skydiving place around here that
I think it's for kids.
I don't know if adults actually do it,
but it seems pretty interesting.
You can't match for a kid.
That's true.
Yeah, I just wear my Star Trek shirt.
All right, folks.
Have a great day.
We'll talk to you tomorrow with Starter Sit for the NFC Home Games ceiling.
