What is up?

0:14.8

My name is Jeff Rackleven.

0:17.0

It is Tuesday, December 13th.

0:20.2

We are now officially in the fantasy football playoffs.

0:24.0

And game on. If you're still listening, you're likely in the playoffs. If not, it's kind of

0:30.1

weird that you're listening, but I respect it. But if you are here, you are in the playoffs

0:34.5

and you need to make some waiver moves. We're going to dive into it. This is not a robust waiver run, but there are some key players out there. So I'm going to get right into it here. We start at the top two running backs who are surprisingly fairly widely available. J.K. Dobbins is out there in enough leagues to make the list. Now, you have to be available in at least

0:55.1

30% of leagues, and he's just over that, so I don't know, it's worth a peak in your leagues.

1:00.6

I know he's probably not there, but I would go 50 to 100%. This is the time of year where we're

1:04.8

just spending our fab, because it isn't going to do us any good in the offseason. The other

1:08.5

player is Zonovan Knight. Night is available in over 40%

1:12.6

of leagues, which is surprising. Maybe some people thought Michael Carter was going to impact

1:17.7

Zonovan Knight's usage. That didn't happen. Nice to clear lead back in early downs, averaging

1:25.0

five yards per carryover's last three games. That's not going anywhere

1:28.1

down the stretch. So if those guys were out there, there are must ads. Now, I realize, again,

1:32.5

probably not out there. Treylin Berks, I'd go 30% on Traylin Berks. He's available in half

1:39.5

of leagues, which is wild. Perhaps he was dropped with the concussion, but he should get back on the

1:46.2

field this week. And he was really coming on strong right before the concussion two weeks ago.

1:51.9

Should be a wide receiver three down the stretch. How about this? Evan Ingram, 20%. Now,

1:57.0

I don't expect last week to happen again. And they do have a relatively tough run of games for the fantasy football playoffs.

2:05.6

But by the same token, tight end is terrible, it's brutal, it is so tough to field a viable option.

2:13.6

And Ingram has proven over the course of the season, yes, he's going to be a little bit hit or miss, but he can get it done.
