Volume is king in fantasy football, and this report will help you understand which players are due more or less according to their roles. It is a great way to know who is overperforming (sell high) and underperforming (buy low) based on historical data tied to metrics we know drive volume.
- Overall offense: Which teams are enabling winning volume and efficiency across game scripts
- Quarterbacks: How involved is each quarterback in the running game and who is unlocking upside for their weapons
- Running backs: Which backs are handling early downs, short-yardage and passing downs
- Tight ends: Who is running enough routes and meeting critical targets per route thresholds
- Receivers: Which receivers are in the most routes and operating broadly within the offense

WEEK 10 TAKEAWAYS
Waiver Wire
– QB Cam Newton should take over as the starter in Week 11. He provides the rushing upside we are looking for and gets a significant upgrade in weapons compared to his time in New England last season. FAB: 5-10%
– RB A.J. Dillon will handle a near every-down role while Aaron Jones recovers from a mild MCL sprain. Expect Dillon to see 75% of the rushing attempts and 5-10% of targets as a low-end RB1. FAB: 50%+
– RB Wayne Gallman split work with Mike Davis after Cordarrelle Patterson left the game (high-ankle sprain). He handled 80% of the rushing attempts while Davis saw more passing work. FAB: 2-5%
– WR Tre'Quan Smith has two top-36 finishes in the last three games and is leading the team in routes over the past two contests. FAB: 2-5%
– TE Gerald Everett has overtaken Will Dissly and is the primary tight end in Seattle. FAB: 2-5%
– See re-issue waiver suggestions below under each team: Justin Fields, Elijah Moore, Michael Gallup, Van Jefferson, Mark Ingram II, Rhamondre Stevenson, Jeff Wilson Jr.
Sell High
– RB Joe Mixon (re-issue) has three top-five finishes in his last four games and ranks as the RB4, but his underlying utilization and efficiency indicate he is most likely a touchdown-dependent high-end RB2.
Buy Low
– RB Miles Sanders is a speculative buy-low at an RB3 price tag thanks to the Eagles' newfound dedication to the run. At worst, he is in a committee and equals his previous production due to the larger rushing pie. At best, he reclaims a near every-down role to provide above-expected returns.
– TE Mike Gesicki‘s utilization remains elite despite the two recent box score duds. He is a top-six tight end with a No. 1 overall upside each week.
Upgrades
– RB Mark Ingram II is in an every-down role as long as Alvin Kamara is out. He is a high-end RB2.
– WR DeVonta Smith is becoming a target funnel for Jalen Hurts, and his underlying WR2 utilization has been shining through over the past two weeks. The passing volume is down in Philadelphia but efficiency is up for the rookie. He is a high-end WR3.
– WR Keenan Allen has three consecutive 30%-plus-target-share games. This one was only a matter of time. He is closing in on WR1 status.
– TE Dan Arnold is Trevor Lawrence‘s favorite target, topping a 20% target share in consecutive games. His utilization is near the elite route (80%) and TPRR (20%) thresholds we covet. He is a low-end TE1 who could push higher.
Downgrades
– QB Jalen Hurts is averaging nearly 100 fewer yards per game passing over the last three contests. He remains the second-most-involved quarterback in designed-rushing attempts, but the big passing game top is gone. He is a low-end QB1.

Trend: Conner solidified his every-down status with Chase Edmonds out of the lineup, handling 84% of the snaps and most SDD and LDD work.
Rest of season:
- Edmonds: low-end RB2 upon return
- Conner: low-end RB1 while Edmonds is out; touchdown-dependent low-end RB2 after
- Benjamin: stash RB5 while Edmonds is out

Sell-high/Monitoring: Ertz eclipsed the 80% route barrier for the second game, but 66% of his routes came from the slot. That could change once Hopkins returns, given how often Kirk also operates from inside. In addition, Ertz rarely gets open against single-man coverage (27%), while Kirk is second on the team behind Hopkins at 40% and Kirk leads the team in open rate versus press-single-man coverage (44%).
Rest of season:
- Hopkins: low-end WR1
- Kirk: boom-bust WR3
- Green: low-end WR3
- Moore: stash WR5
- Ertz: high-end TE2
