1. Kendre Miller, RB, New Orleans Saints, 6% Owned

Kendre Miller has been buried on the depth chart to start the year, but with Alvin Kamara nursing a nagging ankle tweak and the Saints leaning more on the pass with rookie QB Spencer Rattler finding his rhythm, Miller could see a bigger workload this week against a Carolina run defense that's been gashed lately. He's got that explosive burst we saw in college, and at this ownership, he's a pure lottery ticket for handcuff insurance or a desperation flex if you're thin at RB.

2. Wan'Dale Robinson, WR, New York Giants, 49% Owned

Robinson's been quietly racking up targets in a Giants offense that's finally clicking under Brian Daboll's tweaks, especially with Malik Nabers sidelined for the season after a torn ACL and rookie QB Jaxson Dart, who's already looking sharper and more dynamic than the benched Russell Wilson, slinging the ball his way. Last week, he turned 8 targets into 65 yards and a score, nothing flashy, but consistent volume in a pass-heavy attack facing a vulnerable Washington secondary. If Dart keeps slinging it, Robinson's your sneaky WR3 with upside before he gets snapped up.

3. Darren Waller, TE, Miami Dolphins, 12% Owned

Darren Waller burst back onto the scene in his Dolphins debut last Monday night, hauling in three catches for 27 yards and two touchdowns, including a leaping 4-yard grab on fourth-and-goal and a slick 9-yard score, to power Miami to their first win of the season against the Jets. Coming off a year-long retirement and a hip issue that sidelined him for the first three weeks, the 33-year-old looked every bit the red-zone mismatch he was in his Raiders heyday. With Tyreek Hill now out for the year after tearing his ACL and other ligaments in the same game, Waller's target share is set to explode in Mike McDaniel's scheme that loves versatile tight ends, think Jonnu Smith's TE1 production last year, but with Waller's athletic upside. He's a must-add streamer or bye-week savior for TE-needy rosters.

4. Romeo Doubs, WR, Green Bay Packers, 31% Owned

Doubs has emerged as Jordan Love's go-to in the red zone amid Green Bay's WR carousel, hauling in touchdowns on limited snaps while Christian Watson battles hamstring woes. The Packers' high-powered attack should feast on a Lions defense that's soft on the edges, and with 7 targets per game average lately, Doubs is a boom option for leagues where depth at receiver is key, grab him before the hype train leaves the station.

5. Woody Marks, RB, Houston Texans, 33% Owned

Marks flew under the radar as an undrafted gem, but C.J. Stroud's trust in the run game has opened the door for him to spell Joe Mixon effectively, especially with Mixon's mileage showing early. He popped for 12 carries and a score last outing, and facing a weak Chicago front, Marks could carve out flex relevance in PPR formats. At this roster rate, he's the definition of a high-upside stash for contending squads.
