ByPublished: Oct 27, 2020 3:17PM UTC . 2 min read

Before you determine which players you should target on the Fantasy football waiver wire ahead of Week 8, you NEED to see what Scott Engel has to say.

Engel is an inaugural member of the Fantasy Sports Writers Association's Hall of Fame. He is a four-time FSWA Award Winner and nine-time finalist, and has pulled off a three-peat in his prestigious New York City Fantasy Football League that includes other experts and high-stakes players. If there's anyone who knows what it takes to win a league, it's him. 

Engel is 67-37-1 in his seasonal Fantasy Football leagues after seven weeks. Breakout performers such as Justin Herbert and Tim Patrick have been among his top recommendations so far this season. 

Now, he's revealed the best widely available free agents ahead of Week 8. One player Engel is advising Fantasy players to target on the Week 8 waiver wire: Seattle Seahawks running back Carlos Hyde, who scored on a 24-yard run on Sunday night. He could play a very significant role for Seattle this week.

Engel is also all-in on a wide receiver with MASSIVE upside! This player is still widely available and could be a huge boost to your roster moving forward! Anyone who adds this player could hit it BIG. You ABSOLUTELY need to see who it is before making any Week 8 waiver wire claims.

Which players should you target on the Week 8 Fantasy football waiver wire? And which wide receiver is a MUST-ADD? ... Join SportsLine right now to see the best league-winning free agents entering Week 8, all from a Fantasy Hall of Famer!
