Ok, let’s be real about Charbs… can he really be fantasy relevant? He can, but can he be a fringe RB2? The arguments for this: there is no Kenneth Walker anymore, which leaves Charbonnet as the primary running back (most likely) on an elite offense. He will get most of the work as Price will mainly be a change of pace back and Charbonnet can not only run the ball, but catch the ball as well. The Seattle defense is very good, which may lead to a positive gamescript and a lot of running. Plus, Charbonnet was getting most of the goal-line work, even when K9 was there. Plus, he’s had 2 full weeks of practices before, potentially, playing this week. A full week of practice is good enough for a player to be physically ready to play, let alone two.

The arguments against: Charbonnet is coming off a major injury, he may have a slow start and he may be hampered. Price is coming off IR and Wilson has definitely been serviceable. Wilson has had 80+ yards and 3 TDs as the starter in various different games this year, plus he’s getting the volume… the Seahawks also have Holani who, can more or less, catch the ball. So there’s Wilson, Price, and Holani in Charbs’ way. What do you guys think?

Is Charbonnet fool’s gold? Or can he be relied upon?

TLDR: Charbs may be the workhorse but his injury is holding him back

WAR measures how many more wins a specific player generates compared to an average replacement player at the same position. In my opinion it's the best way to compare players across positions cause it accounts for positional scarcity.

Here are the WAR leaders over the last 4 weeks:

biggest risers:

• Jameson Williams and ARSB both rose by more than 10 spots
• Drake Maye takes the no. 1 QB spot from Josh Allen
• Judkins jumped from RB 18 to RB 10, Irving from RB 19 to RB 11
• Malik Nabers takes the no. 1 WR spot from Puka Nacua

biggest fallers:

• Garrett Wilson dropped the most, from WR 14 to WR 38
• Derrick Henry dropped 13 spots, Bijan Robinson 7 spots
• Christian Watson fell from WR 8 to WR 19
• Brock Purdy fell out of the top 100

And here are the leaders over the season:

trend = players with a change of at least 5 spot since last week

Hey guys, unsure if this is the right thread but figure this is where all the fantasy football ball knowers were at.

Was sent this Trivia-Styled fantasy game to work on and have been enjoying it a ton with my friends. Was hoping to get some feedback on the concept from the general public!

Basically it takes players from 2010 to modern and gives you fantasy related questions (i.e who has more career points? Highest week? More top 10 finishes and so on)

I attached some close calls and streak breakers here.

A long interest of mine has been seeing how the fantasy world was before my time playing, i know all the legends but no idea how they were fantasy wise. Thinks its a cool way to compare

As always, appreciate you guys! And if this is the wrong thread I apologize.

Some really solid trench performances this past week.

O-Line: CIN, TB and LAR put in good work.

D-Line: SEA was on another level, MIN keeps it going and NYG keeps them in a close game.

Week 8 Matchups: TH

Trench Injury Overview: FR.

Hey y’all,

These guys put up duds in Week 7, but was that a fluke or will it continue going forward?

The Panic Meter this week includes:

- Nico Collins
- Justin Jefferson
- Derrick Henry
- Chris Olave
- Chase Brown

Who are you most panicked about heading into Week 8 and beyond?

Your leagues probably clear waivers on Wednesday, but some weird leagues clear early on Tuesdays. Thanks to them, we can see what size bids are actually winning players in waivers. I grab a sizeable sample of these Tuesday leagues from the Sleeper API, and see who's trending.

Week 8 is a quieter, cheaper week than Week 7. Last week's top add, Omar Cooper Jr., drew bids in 52% of the sampled leagues and usually won at 12% of budget. This week, Caleb Douglas is the most contested add bid on in 29% of leagues. Jonah Coleman is the priciest, at a 9.0% median. Kaelon Black is only 30% owned, but it still took 14.5% of budget to win him in 3 of 4 leagues.

Methodology

This analysis pulls the results of FAAB transactions from over a thousand leagues. It normalizes each bid based on the total league budget (not the individual team's remaining budget). "Bids that won" is a measure of competitiveness. A lower "Bids that won" percentage indicates that, on average, more teams in a league are bidding for that player.

Someone in the Week 6 thread made a good point about ownership. "Leagues bidding" only counts leagues where the player was actually available. A guy like KC Concepcion (62% owned) only shows up in the leagues where he's free, so his sample is smaller than Caleb Douglas's (19% owned). Check the Owned column before you lean too hard on a number.

The result is a distribution of what FAAB budget % it actually took to win in any given league. You can see an example player curve pictured in the post, where 12.5% of budget was enough to win Caleb Douglas in about 7 of 10 of the sampled leagues that claimed him, and 20% won about 9 of 10.

The table below shows how many leagues are bidding for a player (relative only to each other), how competitive those auctions are, and what % of FAAB is winning at the 50th and 75th percentiles.

A 0.0% median here means most leagues that claimed Brissett did placed a $0 bid.

Details and data: Full FAAB Price List, with links to player-specific pages/curves.

This data might not tell you exactly what to bid, but hopefully it helps you think about your bidding strategy a little more concretely.

I'm thinking about other ways to leverage this data throughout the week, so let me know if you find it useful, or if there's anything else you'd like to see.

I'm back this season with the F6P weekly usage report. Here is a preview of the Week 7 post. Each week I hit on just about every team, but this week's highlighted teams are...

• Bengals RB
• Cardinals RB
• Chargers RB
• Cardinals WR/TE
• Commanders WR/TE

What usage from Week 7 or this season has caught your attention?

Running Backs

Key: snaps/rush att/targets/inside 5 carries

Green Bay Packers

• Josh Jacobs 35/11/7/1
• MarShawn Lloyd 24/6/2/0
• Pierre Strong 8/0/0/0

Jacobs made his season debut after coming off the Commissioner's Exempt List. In his first game of the season, he played 52% of the snaps and got 11 carries, seven targets and the only carry inside the five. The low snaps do not worry me at all when I see he dominated the usage like he did, especially in the passing game.

It looks like MarShawn Lloyd has gone back to being the primary handcuff in this backfield. He played 24 snaps compared to just eight for Pierre Strong. I do expect Jacobs role to grow a bit more, so Lloyd will be very hard to trust going forward.

Wide Receivers/Tight Ends

Key: snaps/routes run/targets/end zone targets

New York Jets

• Garrett Wilson 50/29/3/0
• Omar Cooper Jr. 38/23/5/0
• Mason Taylor 37/21/6/2
• Adonai Mitchell 26/18/3/1
• Kenyon Sadiq 22/12/1/0

Cooper showed out in Week 6, but that was without Adonai Mitchell. This past week, despite Mitchell returning, he did it again. Wilson is still the main guy there, but if Cooper is somehow still available in your league, he is a must-add.

The bigger story might be Mason Taylor. He led the team with six targets, got two end zone targets and ran a route on 64% of dropbacks. Kenyon Sadiq still hasn't gotten his role back, and he played just 37% of the snaps. If you need a tight end, Taylor is the one I'd add here.

Hey everyone,

I put together this week’s top waiver wire pickups using rankings from top fantasy sites like Yahoo, NFL, FantasyPros, Rotoballer, and others. It’s ranked by position, with links to the sources if you want to read up on the ranking & research.

You can also sync your fantasy leagues to see who’s available and direct links back to your fantasy platform to make your waiver claim.

It’s all free & no sign-up required. https://www.draftwiz.net/nfl/waivers/2026/8

which players who had a decent 2+ game stretch early and then faded HARD are likely to come back and be relevant and who are long gone?

Example candidates-

others- H. Fannin(he showed promise again in week 7, Josh Palmer, Keaton Mitchell, McConkey (looked good in WK1 and until injury in WK2), Kenyon Saadiq, Brian Robinson JR.

With fantasy football reg season at halfway point since most leagues start playoffs wk 14, Share other names as well and if youre holding on because you think they can show relevance and perhaps much more, or if you think those players are no longer relevant.

Some Week 8 Waiver Wire Adds

QB

Geno Smith, Jacoby Brissett

RB

Jonah Coleman, Seth Mcgowan

WR

Omar Cooper Jr., KC Concepcion, Antonio Williams

TE

Hunter Henry, Chig Okonkwo

Deeper Dive and more names in video (optional)

McGowan is the only Colts RB besides Jonathan Taylor who has played a snap this year, and his role keeps growing: 6% of the snaps in Week 2, 33% last week, with a career-high 11 carries in a one-score game.

Three ways he pays off:

- His role keeps growing even with Taylor healthy

- Taylor gets hurt (he's at 20 carries a game)

- The Colts trade Taylor (they just moved Quenton Nelson, though ownership reportedly wants to keep JT *which I don't really believe*)

He's on 25.6% of Sleeper rosters but only 4% on ESPN.

Is he worth a spot on your bench, or are you waiting to see if Taylor actually gets moved?

I would still rank it: Coleman then Black then McGowan for now, right?

**EDIT: The Colts firesale continues! Buckner traded to the 49ers!**
