It’s a must-win week for many of us \u2014 not technically the fantasy playoffs just yet, but basically the same experience. Trade deadlines have passed for most of you, which means the only way to improve your roster is via the wire. If you have fantasy needs, we have options. All players discussed below are available in a majority of Yahoo leagues and approved for immediate use.<\/em><\/p>\n

Wide receivers and tight ends of interest<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Jones is suddenly a pass magnet for Jacksonville, having drawn 24 targets over his last two games. We can’t very well leave a player on the wire when he’s seeing this sort of volume. Trevor Lawrence <\/strong>delivered a signature performance in Sunday’s win<\/strong><\/a> against Baltimore and Jones was targeted on 37.8 percent of his quarterback’s attempts, catching 11 for 145 yards. He also snagged the game-winning two-point conversion on an absolute dart from Lawrence:<\/p>\n

The Jaguars have a pair of beatable pass defenses on deck (at Det, at Ten), so we likely haven’t seen the last outburst from Jones. He’s hauled in 27 of his 32 chances over Jacksonville’s last four games, ridiculous efficiency from a player who actually sees the occasional downfield target.<\/p>\n

Recommended waiver offer, assuming $100 budget: $12<\/strong><\/p>\n

It’s been a wild ride for McKenzie this year, from preseason fantasy sleeper to mid-season bust and, suddenly, back to relevance following a six-catch, 96-yard performance on Thanksgiving. McKenzie played a season-high 73 percent of the offensive snaps against Detroit, drawing 10 targets and making a first-quarter house call:<\/p>\n

He’s had a few rough moments this year, but he clearly remains inside Josh Allen’s circle of trust. On Thursday night, McKenzie travels to New England to face a defense he repeatedly roasted last December in an 11-reception, 125-yard breakout performance. He deserves flex\/WR3 consideration this week.<\/p>\n
