Fantasy Football Week 8 waiver wire: Jonah Coleman headlines must-add RBs

CBS Sports • • sports

Key Points:

  • Jonah Coleman and Rachaad White are recommended additions for Week 8 and beyond, with Coleman showing strong potential to lead Denver's backfield and White expected to be the Commanders' lead back during Jacory Croskey-Merritt's injury absence. Both are rostered over 65% on CBS Sports but are available on other platforms, warranting significant FAAB investment.
  • Quarterback options to consider include Kirk Cousins and Aaron Rodgers as low-end starters in Week 8, while Tyler Shough and Sam Darnold are suggested drop candidates due to inconsistent recent performances and upcoming byes.
  • Running back waiver wire targets include Emanuel Wilson, Rico Dowdle, and Mike Washington, who have shown productive recent performances or increased opportunity; drop candidates include Tyler Allgeier, Kendre Miller, and MarShawn Lloyd due to limited upside or return of starters.
  • Wide receiver adds to consider are Omar Cooper Jr., Deebo Samuel (potential Week 9 return), Chris Godwin, and Keenan Allen, with drop candidates including Josh Downs, Jaylin Noel, and Christian Kirk due to recent underperformance or injury concerns.
  • At tight end, Pat Freiermuth is a potential add despite recent struggles, while Mark Andrews, Jake Ferguson, and Dalton Schultz are recommended drops given underwhelming production; suggested DST streamers for Week 8 include the Jaguars, Bengals, and Bears.
