Thanksgiving weekend time to scour waiver wire

Thanksgiving is a holiday rich in tradition.

Watch the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade as friends and family stuffed with everything from turkeys to stuffing to mashed potatoes and gravy to the infamous lime-green jelly-like mold that your crazy aunt brings every year. gather around the table.

Sometimes I'll throw a soccer ball in the backyard and then come home and eat pumpkin pie.

But one of the most satisfying traditions is when you open the fridge the next day to find delicious leftovers waiting to be delivered to your gut just one more time.

same goes for you fantasy soccer Four games into Week 13, the lineup and waiver wire are complete.

While everyone else in the league is recovering from their food coma, it's important to evaluate your own roster and see if you need to change your lineup or if there are players that could still be added. .

Did you play against Tua Tagovailoa, Josh Jacobs, and Keenan Allen?

Already behind this week and need upside?

Receivers like Nick Westbrook-Ikin and Marquez Valdes-Scantling could probably be added as they are swing-for-the-fence types, but the bigger threat to disrupt the status quo is bigger than Taysom Hill. I wonder?

Most fantasy analysts don't want to admit it, but using Hill in an eligible position could be a game-changer.

Out of the seven games he's played this season, he's reached double-digit fantasy points three times, and nearly cleared the 40-point mark in his most recent game.

So when Saints interim coach Darren Rizzi told the media that Hill would be a “big part” of the team's offense, you should pay attention.

Yes, there's always a chance that Hill will score less than five points, which is his record with four games remaining this season, but if you're behind on the scoreboard, you'll have to take your chances.

There are other players this week who could be difference-makers, whether they're sitting on the bench or available in shallow leagues.

Despite some outstanding efforts, Tampa Bay running back Bucky Irving remains a player that most people don't trust.

Three-man backfields are obviously problematic, but seeing as Sean Tucker was benched last week for a goal-line fumble, the heavy lifting is on Irving and Rashard White's hands. It will be entrusted to you.

He should have a big day against the Panthers, who rank last in every metric of run defense.

They should also consider adding Chargers receiver Rad McConkie to the lineup.

He's the only reliable receiver on that team, and he and Justin Herbert have a great relationship on the field.


Do you want to bet on the NFL?


Playing against the 28th-ranked Falcons pass defense opens up a wide range of possibilities this week, and fantasy teams should benefit greatly.

Holidays are always full of distractions, so if you can be first in line for leftovers, you can make sure you eat well.

Someone like Irving or McConkey will give us higher floors and higher ceilings.

Hill may be the Ross Geller Moist Maker's version.
