We finish the show by answering your listener mailbag questions (1:04:04) and share our thoughts on who we would trade Ezekiel Elliott (1:04:41) for and if it's wise to trade James Conner and A.J.

We're back after another riveting weekend of NFL action to give you the lowdown on this week's best waiver wire adds! What's the impact of Odell Beckham's (2:53) season-ending injury and is Carlos Hyde (6:11) the main RB fantasy managers should be targeting?

Later on, Dan and Yates recap last night's game and preview every single one of this week's upcoming matchups! Is Carson Wentz (18:00) once again a reliable QB1 or do all the injuries around him dampen his rest of season outlook? Are we willing to trust A.J. Green (48:24) after his resurgence last week and should Jerick McKinnon (1:01:34) be plugged into lineups despite being in a timeshare against a tough Patriots run defense?

We're back to give you our insight on this week's top waiver wire pickups alongside Adam Aizer of CBS Sports. The guys get started with a recap of Sunday night's game (2:51) and discuss whether we can trust Darrell Henderson (8:48) moving forward. Later, we move into the waiver adds (14:03) and break down who the top RB add is between Giovani Bernard, Boston Scott (14:09), and Justin Jackson (14:47) and decide if Tim Patrick (36:48) is someone WR-needy fantasy managers can rely upon with confidence. The show concludes with a game of Drop or Keep (56:55) where we examine the players like Leonard Fournette (58:16), Zach Ertz (59:25), and JuJu Smith-Schuster (1:00:04).
