Offensive Line Champs and Chumps - Fantasy Football Matchups To Target, Avoid (Week 10)

Navigating the bye weeks was probably a nightmare for fantasy managers. Thankfully, we finally got some explosive offensive performances from the teams that were playing.

Should I pick up Phillip Dorsett after his Week 9 performance? Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Outlook

Is Darren Waller playing in Week 9? Should I pick up and start Foster Moreau for fantasy football?

It seemed like fantasy managers were getting a great discount on a high-volume tight end throughout the fantasy draft season when Darren Waller was being drafted as the TE4.

Offensive Line Champs and Chumps - Fantasy Football Matchups To Target, Avoid (Week 9)
