What To Do If You Missed Out On Ollie Gordon, Braelon & More On The Week 4 Waiver Wire
Key Points:
- Week 4 saw multiple backup running backs like Ollie Gordon, Braelon Allen, and Jaylen Wright emerge as top waiver wire targets amid injuries to starters, driving aggressive FAAB spending in many leagues.
- Alvin Kamara and Kendre Miller present strong insurance options in the Saints backfield with Travis Etienne sidelined, as Kamara is expected to handle high-value touches and Miller to split base work, offering RB2 and flex upside respectively.
- Keaton Mitchell of the Chargers is available in 66% of Yahoo leagues and showed breakout potential in Week 3 with significant snap share and target involvement, making him a viable RB4 with upside amid struggles from Omarion Hampton.
- Seahawks' Emanuel Wilson is part of a committee but leads the backfield in rush attempts and short-yardage opportunities, providing a potential low-cost option with multi-TD upside on a high-powered offense, especially if waiver options are limited.
