Engel won two dynasty leagues championships last season, including one in the Fantasy Football Players Championship (FFPC) and has won three consecutive championships in his highly competitive New York City league. So far this season, Engel has recommended high impact players such as Kadarius Toney, Cordarrelle Patterson, Dawson Knox and Khalil Herbert ahead of their breakout performances!
Now, he's revealed the best widely available free agents ahead of Week 9. One player to target on the Week 9 waiver wire: Tennessee running back Jeremy McNichols. With Derrick Henry out indefinitely due to a foot injury, McNichols will likely see an increased workload. He does have the versatility to make him worthy of starting lineup consideration, even with Adrian Peterson coming into the picture with the Titans.
Engel is also all-in on a quarterback 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 9 waiver wire claims.
