Trashman’s Garbage Grab: Week 15

The fantasy playoffs are here, and the dumpster fumes have never smelled sweeter. If you’re banged up, desperate, or just addicted to bad decisions, these bargain-bin beauties might be the boost your roster needs.…

Running Back

Bam Knight, Cardinals – 32% rostered
The spectre of Trey Benson no longer looms over the Cardinals backfield, as he’s been shut down for the season. Knight will lead the ground assault for Arizona against a Houston team that’s almost impossible to throw against. 

Devin Singletary, Bears – 30% rostered
Singletary’s last outing was the best of his season thus far, resulting in over 70 yards of offense and a score. He’ll split carries with Tyrone Tracy, but if Singletary gets the hot hand, we could see him thrive against a bottom ten Commanders rushing defense.

Wide Receiver

Kayshon Boutte, Patriots – 29% rostered
Boutte has been boom or bust this season, but he’s actually been fairly consistent in four of his last five starts, excluding a WK10 hamstring impeded game. The Patriots most dynamic pass-catching option, Boutte will look to find the endzone for the sixth time in six games., 

Devaughn Vele, Saints – 15% rostered
Vele only had 40 yards last week, but it still led the Saints in receiving. He’ll have his work cut out for him against a stout Carolina secondary this week, but Vele still offers upside in a PPR pinch. 

Chimere Dike, Titans  – 26% rostered
Dike’s biggest fault may be that he plays for Tennessee, but he’s coming off an 8 target, 1 TD game in WK14. He’ll continue to be a feast or famine option against a middling 49ers squad this week. 

Tight End

Mike Gesicki, Bengals- 4% rostered

OK, let’s try this again. I put Gesicki here a few weeks ago, but it didn’t quite payoff. The Bengals are without Tee Higgins once again, but this time Gesicki is coming off of his best game this season, catching 6 balls for 86 yards and a score. Hopefully he keeps up the momentum. 

Quarterback

Shedeur Sanders, Browns – 16% rostered
Sanders looks like the real deal, at least for fantasy. Josh Allen was the only QB to have more fantasy points than the rookie last week, and Sanders will look to put together back-to-back stunners against a susceptible Bears front in WK15.
