His track speed and agility make him a dangerous weapon in the open field, but he struggles with contact balance, ball security, and vision as a runner. He projects best in an outside zone or spread offense where he can maximize his athleticism and receiving skills. With improved pass protection, he could carve out a significant role as a third-down back early in his career.

His length, speed, and tackling ability make him a tone-setting presence against the run, while his range and ball skills add value in coverage. However, hip tightness and transition quickness limit his ability to be a true deep-field safety or slot coverage defender.

Kris Jenkins exhibits good positional strength and a high-effort approach to pass rushing, which serves him well both inside and potentially on the edge. His ability to fill holes, recover from cut blocks, and shed blockers to make plays shows a level of versatility and effectiveness against the run.

At 6’3”, 260 pounds with solid length and dense lower-body build, he wins with leverage, hand placement, and functional power rather than elite burst or bend. His 2024 season (11 sacks, 20 TFL, 6 forced fumbles) showcased true impact traits as a disruptive force capable of collapsing pockets and setting hard edges against the run. While his 2025 production dipped, his tape still reflects a high-floor defender who controls the point of attack and compresses the pocket with long-arm power. However, limited corner flexibility and inconsistent pass-rush sequencing cap his elite upside.

Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Week 8: Who to Add — Jaxson Dart, Kyle Monangai, Alec Pierce & Oronde Gadsden II Top Must-Add Players Week 8 is here, and by now, fantasy managers should know if they are contenders, making the playoffs, or in full crisis mode. Between injuries, key teams on bye, and backfields in flux, fantasy managers are scrambling to plug roster holes before the midseason push. Jump to Position Group QB | RB | WR | TE Quarterbacks Jaxson Dart (Giants) – 43% rostered Averaging 23.0 fantasy points per game over his last four starts, Dart has become a legit QB1 thanks to his dual-threat upside. He’s scored multiple touchdowns in every outing and faces a familiar Philadelphia defense he torched earlier this year. A must-add in any league he’s still available. Joe Flacco (Bengals) – 5% rostered Flacco threw for 342 yards and three touchdowns in his second Bengals start, instantly syncing with Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins. With one of the easiest QB schedules remaining, he’s a viable short- and long-term starter while Joe Burrow remains sidelined. J.J. McCarthy (Vikings) – 28% rostered Returning from an ankle injury, McCarthy is a speculative stash for fantasy managers in deeper leagues. Minnesota’s offensive line is getting healthier, and the rookie has a favorable rest-of-season schedule once he returns to full action. Michael Penix Jr. (Falcons) – 17% rostered Penix has quietly hit 240+ passing yards in three straight games and draws the Dolphins in Week 8, who’ve allowed the second-most QB fantasy points. He’s a steady streamer with QB2 upside, particularly for those navigating bye weeks. Running Backs Kyle Monangai (Bears) – 4% rostered Chicago’s rookie back has carved out nearly a 50/50 split with D’Andre Swift, logging 81 yards and a touchdown in Week 7. He’s now seeing work on third downs and at the goal line, giving him immediate Flex appeal against Baltimore and Cincinnati. Tyler Allgeier (Falcons) – 37% rostered Allgeier’s workload spikes in Atlanta wins, averaging 14 carries per game in victories. With Miami up next — a defense that’s struggled against the run — he’s a priority add for anyone short on RB depth during the bye-week crunch. Bam Knight (Cardinals) – 25% rostered Knight started his first game since 2022 and out-snapped Michael Carter, handling 17 touches for 64 total yards. Arizona’s on bye this week, but he’s worth stashing ahead of a Week 9 matchup with Dallas’ vulnerable run defense. Isaiah Davis (Jets) – 4% rostered Davis has emerged as Breece Hall’s clear backup and would inherit a full-time role if Hall is traded or injured. Deep-league stash with league-winning upside if the Jets make a move before the deadline. Tyjae Spears (Titans) – 30% rostered Spears continues to share snaps with Tony Pollard and remains one trade away from RB1 volume. His explosiveness and growing role make him a strong hold through the trade deadline. Bhayshul Tuten (Jaguars) – 27% rostered Tuten has been more efficient than Travis Etienne in recent weeks and could see his role expand after Jacksonville’s Week 8 bye. He’s one of the few backups with a real shot to take over his backfield. Tahj Brooks (Bengals) – 0% rostered A deep-league stash with massive contingency upside — if Chase Brown or Samaje Perine go down, Brooks would step into meaningful carries in one of the league’s most favorable RB schedules. Wide Receivers Alec Pierce (Colts) – 3% rostered Pierce led the Colts with 98 yards in Week 7 and remains the team’s primary deep threat. He’s averaged nearly 10 PPR points per game without scoring — meaning positive touchdown regression is coming. A strong WR3/Flex add for Week 9 and beyond. Kayshon Boutte (Patriots) – 27% rostered Boutte continues to flash red-zone chemistry with Drake Maye, scoring four touchdowns in limited volume. His role as New England’s X receiver keeps him on the field, and an uptick in targets could turn him into a long-term fantasy starter. Troy Franklin (Broncos) – 29% rostered Despite inconsistent results, Franklin has seen steady routes and scoring opportunities in Denver’s offense. He faces a Dallas defense allowing the most fantasy points to wideouts — giving him breakout potential in Week 8. Elic Ayomanor (Titans) – 26% rostered A steady role and upcoming matchup with the Colts’ soft secondary make Ayomanor one of the best streaming options this week. He’s due for another spike game as Tennessee leans more on its passing attack. Xavier Legette (Panthers) – 23% rostered The rookie finally broke out with nine catches for 92 yards and a score. Carolina’s passing game is trending upward, and Legette could solidify himself as the WR2 behind Tetairoa McMillan. Chris Moore (Commanders) – 7% rostered With multiple injuries in Washington’s receiver room, Moore stepped up as the primary X receiver. If Terry McLaurin and Deebo Samuel remain out, he’s a worthwhile one-week fill-in. Jaylin Lane (Commanders) – 1% rostered Lane caught three passes for 60 yards and continues to see expanded usage in three-receiver sets. In deeper leagues, he’s a short-term Flex with potential to grow if injuries persist. Jack Bech (Raiders) – 4% rostered Bech filled in for Jakobi Meyers and looked comfortable working from the slot, finishing second in team receiving. If Meyers is traded, Bech would instantly become a viable WR3 in PPR formats. Tight Ends Oronde Gadsden II (Chargers) – 2% rostered The rookie erupted for 164 yards on seven catches, cementing himself as the Chargers’ new TE1. With an 80% snap share and heavy usage in all situations, Gadsden is a must-add and potential rest-of-season starter. A.J. Barner (Seahawks) – 12% rostered Barner ranks near the top of PFF’s receiving grades among tight ends and continues to produce efficiently despite low volume. His target share could climb post-bye, making him a smart long-term hold. Colston Loveland (Bears) – 25% rostered With Cole Kmet sidelined, Loveland stepped into an every-down role, logging 21 of the final 23 snaps. If Kmet misses more time, Loveland is an instant streaming option in a resurgent Chicago offense. Isaiah Likely (Ravens) – 5% rostered Likely’s role is quietly expanding alongside Mark Andrews, and a potential trade could elevate him into full-time TE1 territory. He’s one of the best forward-looking stashes at the position. Theo Johnson (Giants) – 11% rostered Johnson delivered a career-high 66 yards and a touchdown in Week 7, emerging as a reliable safety blanket for Jaxson Dart. The Giants’ thin receiving corps keeps his weekly target floor steady.

Charles Cross is one of the more athletically gifted tackles in the 2022 NFL Draft. His quickness and fluidity first allow him to redirect opposing pass rushers with relative ease. At 6-5 305lbs, he has a good length. He uses his length combined with a well-timed punch to win at the point of attack. Cross plays with good hands, and his punch allows him to move defenders off their track consistently. In pass protection, Cross forces defenders to convert speed to power by not allowing them to move inside or outside of him. The pitfall of this is that he can be bulled into the QB when the defender uses a power move. He struggles to anchor quick enough against stronger defenders off the edge. Because he is a lean player, he can be inconsistent as a run blocker. He is a capable run blocker who must improve his hand placement. He can sometimes allow his hands to get too far outside. Improving his pinching ability and hand strength to keep his hands inside will be key at the NFL level. Overall, Cross is a solid LT prospect, just a shade outside our instant impact player ceiling; Cross can overshoot our projection by adding functional weight and increasing his overall strength. ← Back to NFL Draft Big Board Charles Cross Mississippi State HT: 6050 WT: 310 YR: SO POS: OT OVR RK 6 POS RK CEILING POTENTIAL 3 KEY STRENGTHS KEY CONCERNS PLAYSTYLE & SCHEME FIT Charles Cross is one of the more athletically gifted tackles in the 2022 NFL Draft.

McBride, like Dulcich, participated in the Reese's Senior Bowl; he had a solid week. He did not run a 40 at the combine, but he did clock a 4.54 at his pro day. He is a versatile TE who can play inline, flexed, or out of the backfield. He takes pride in his blocking ability, and with improvement as a blocker, he could ascend into the best TE prospect in the 2022 class. ← Back to NFL Draft Big Board Trey McBride Colorado State HT: 6040 WT: 260 YR: SR POS: TE OVR RK 68 POS RK CEILING POTENTIAL 2 KEY STRENGTHS KEY CONCERNS PLAYSTYLE & SCHEME FIT McBride, like Dulcich, participated in the Reese's Senior Bowl; he had a solid week.

← Back to NFL Draft Big Board Jermod McCoy Tennessee HT: 6000 WT: 195 YR: JR POS: CB OVR RK 17 POS RK CEILING POTENTIAL KEY STRENGTHS Press-man technician ecovery speed + burst High-end instincts KEY CONCERNS Medical red flag Grabby habits Play strength PLAYSTYLE & SCHEME FIT Jermod McCoy is a rare corner who combines true press-man violence with elite technical discipline, and his tape shows a defender who doesn’t just cover routes—he erases them. He plays with patient, controlled hands at the line and uses mirror-match footwork with loose, reactive hips to smother releases and prevent separation before it begins. When receivers do gain a step, McCoy’s recovery speed and second gear come into play immediately, closing space like a track athlete with NFL-caliber burst. What sets him apart from most “sticky” corners is his mental game: route recognition, spacing awareness, and quarterback manipulation are advanced—he bait throws, disguise intentions, and turn breakups into turnovers and game-changing plays. He’s a physical, confident competitor with real CB1 traits, and if medicals clear his ACL recovery, McCoy projects as a Day 1 starter with long-term Pro Bowl upside and the kind of ball production that can change games. PLAYER COMPARISON: CEILING GRADE ANALYSIS Near Elite (70-74) A high-caliber prospect who is expected to become a significant contributor by Year 2. These players have outstanding physical tools and strong football IQ, with only minor flaws in their game.
