As Geno Smith has thrown a whopping one touchdown pass. The bright spot? Tre Tucker. He currently ranks as WR 22 in fantasy. Rumors have been swirling recently that Jakobi Myers wants to be traded, and the team is listening to offers. If so, then Tucker would slide into the WR1 role and inherit an uptick in targets. If Tucker can get going in the second half of the season, I don\u2019t see why he can\u2019t finish as a top 18 WR this season, especially if Jakobi gets traded. The best part about all of this is Tucker is available in 54% of ESPN leagues, so if he\u2019s on the waiver wire, do yourself a favor and take the free square like I did this week.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><em><strong>For more fantasy football analysis, check out our <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/2025\/10\/30\/fantasy-football-rankings-top-10-quarterbacks-week-9\/\" target=\"_self\">Week 9 Quarterback Rankings<\/a>!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3>Buy &#8211; Quinshon Judkins<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_251703\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-251703\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-251703\" src=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/10\/USATSI_27369880_168400545_lowres-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"quinshon judkins\" width=\"640\" height=\"426\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/10\/USATSI_27369880_168400545_lowres-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/10\/USATSI_27369880_168400545_lowres-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/10\/USATSI_27369880_168400545_lowres-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/10\/USATSI_27369880_168400545_lowres-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/10\/USATSI_27369880_168400545_lowres-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/10\/USATSI_27369880_168400545_lowres-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/10\/USATSI_27369880_168400545_lowres-1200x800.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-251703\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Credit: Scott Galvin-Imagn Images<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>What a steal Judkins was if you were intelligent enough to pick him on waivers or draft him in a late round. I certainly didn\u2019t, and I\u2019m still kicking myself for it. Judkins is an absolute beast in the running game, and that\u2019s exactly <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/category\/nfl-teams\/browns\/\" target=\"_self\">Cleveland Browns<\/a> football. Averaging 16.8 carries per game, 69.4 YPG, and dominating goal-line carries. Last week, the Browns team simply did not show up, as Judkins had a stinker of a game, and we all know fantasy football managers only remember what they don\u2019t do for me lately. With that being said, I\u2019d be offering trades to Judkins owners trying to pry him away, as the Browns have a solid schedule in the 2nd half of the season, which will boost Judkins&#8217; fantasy production.<\/p>\n<p><!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<h3>Sell- Tee Higgins<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-196907\" src=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2024\/10\/Tee-Higgins-Trade-1024x553.jpg\" alt=\"Tee Higgins Trade\" width=\"640\" height=\"346\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2024\/10\/Tee-Higgins-Trade-1024x553.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2024\/10\/Tee-Higgins-Trade-300x162.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2024\/10\/Tee-Higgins-Trade-768x415.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2024\/10\/Tee-Higgins-Trade-1536x830.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2024\/10\/Tee-Higgins-Trade.jpg 1773w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/category\/nfl-teams\/bengals\/\" target=\"_self\">Bengals<\/a> offense has been rolling of late with Joe Flacco behind center. Tee has been his typical self this season, very inconsistent. As it may have been smarter to sell him coming off his Week 7 boom game, his 11 fantasy points posted in Week 8 still may be enough to move him. He\u2019s averaging 3.1 catches per game to go along with 45 YPG. Not good, unless he\u2019s your WR 4, which I doubt is a reality for anyone, especially where he was drafted. Ranking as WR34, he\u2019s a must sell to a WR-needy team.<\/p>\n<h3>Sell- Keenan Allen<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_252967\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-252967\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-252967\" src=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/10\/Keenan-Allen-Fantasy-Football-Buy-Sell-Hold-Week-9-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Keenan Allen Fantasy Football Buy Sell Hold Week 9\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/10\/Keenan-Allen-Fantasy-Football-Buy-Sell-Hold-Week-9-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/10\/Keenan-Allen-Fantasy-Football-Buy-Sell-Hold-Week-9-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/10\/Keenan-Allen-Fantasy-Football-Buy-Sell-Hold-Week-9-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/10\/Keenan-Allen-Fantasy-Football-Buy-Sell-Hold-Week-9-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/10\/Keenan-Allen-Fantasy-Football-Buy-Sell-Hold-Week-9-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/10\/Keenan-Allen-Fantasy-Football-Buy-Sell-Hold-Week-9-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/10\/Keenan-Allen-Fantasy-Football-Buy-Sell-Hold-Week-9-1200x800.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-252967\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Credit: Jayne Kamin-Oncea-Imagn Images<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Let me start off by saying I am a huge fan of Mr Allen. Mr. Allen is a class act and everything a team should want in a player. Now, with that being said, yes, he\u2019s been having a way more productive season than I could have ever imagined, but the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/category\/nfl-teams\/chargers\/\" target=\"_self\">Chargers<\/a> offense is so spread out that it\u2019s hard to bank on consistent production from him each week. I get he\u2019s WR8 currently, but he\u2019s a 33-year-old WR in a run-first offense with multiple playmakers at all positions. Yes, he\u2019s 15.1 fantasy points per game, but if I could flip him for a top-tier player in an area of need for your team that\u2019s going to help you down the stretch, I am all for it.<\/p>\n<p><!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<h3>Hold &#8211; Nico Collins<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_252968\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-252968\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-252968\" src=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/10\/USATSI_27091325_168419650_lowres-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"426\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/10\/USATSI_27091325_168419650_lowres-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/10\/USATSI_27091325_168419650_lowres-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/10\/USATSI_27091325_168419650_lowres-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/10\/USATSI_27091325_168419650_lowres-1536x1023.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/10\/USATSI_27091325_168419650_lowres-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/10\/USATSI_27091325_168419650_lowres-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/10\/USATSI_27091325_168419650_lowres.jpg 2035w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-252968\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Credit: Thomas Shea-Imagn Images<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Nico Collins has not had the start to the season I thought he was going to, as I drafted him in many leagues. A combination of bad offensive line play leading to bad quarterback play, and it all leads to mediocre WR play. Most managers drafted Collins in the late 1st or early 2nd round, and I know they aren\u2019t happy about it, but I say stay the course. <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/category\/nfl-teams\/texans\/\" target=\"_self\">Houston<\/a> has a very favorable schedule via the forward pass for the rest of the season. Nico is currently sitting at WR36, and I wouldn\u2019t be shocked if he finishes in the top 15 at the end of the year if this offense can continue to look like it did last week against the 49ers. The offensive line held up, and Stroud completed 30 of 36 passes.

They show up when you least expect it, and then no-show when they have cupcake matchups. London is another guy who was drafted early and has not played out how we imagined. The positive for London is the run game, with Bijan really putting pressure on defenses, but the downfall is inconsistent quarterback play. I truly feel that London missed Week 8 because the Falcons thought they would easily beat up on the Dolphins, so they gave him a week\u2019s rest for his hip issue. Looking forward to a Week 9 matchup in New England. Boy, that really blew up in their face. London has had double-digit targets in 4 of his 6 games played this year, which is encouraging, but only two touchdowns. London will continue to be the focal point of this offense along with Bijan, so expect 7+ targets a week from him and just pray his numbers increase in the touchdown department.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>For more great fantasy football analysis, check out <a href=\"https:\/\/drroto.com\/category\/blog\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">DrRoto.com<\/a>!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Each week, I\u2019ll break down the players I think you should buy low, sell high, or hold onto as the fantasy season unfolds.
