Episode Description from the Publisher

Three weeks of data now, and a Week 3 injury wave just rewrote four backfields and a passing game.Dwain McFarland and Alex Cupps go through the Week 3 Utilization Report — snaps, routes, rush share, target share — and turn it into the specific moves to make this week, on waivers and in the trade market.They start with the upgrades. Jeremiyah Love hits liftoff, Cam Skattebo's pass-game role is back, and there's movement for Kenyon Sadiq, George Kittle and Josh Downs. Then the injury fallout: De'Von Achane's torn ACL and what it means for Ollie Gordon and Jaylen Wright in Miami, Breece Hall's thigh opening the door for Braelon Allen, the Travis Etienne situation pushing work toward Alvin Kamara and Kendre Miller, and Baker Mayfield's thumb reshaping the Buccaneers passing game. Plus a Brian Thomas Jr. tangent and where Jadarian Price stands now.The back half is the full waiver roundup. Sam Darnold and Marcus Mariota at quarterback. Keaton Mitchell, available in 68% of leagues, plus Tyler Goodson at running back. Malik Washington and KC Concepcion at receiver, with Christian Kirk as the sicko stash. And AJ Barner and Oronde Gadsden at tight end.They close in the trade market: buy-low cases on Chase Brown and Ashton Jeanty, and sell-high looks at Davante Adams and Bhayshul Tuten.The Utilization Report is brought to you by Tenex.ai.
