High-Upside Waiver Wire Bench Stashes
Only players rostered in fewer than 35% of fantasy football leagues are considered potential streamers.
Brian Robinson Jr., RB - SF
15% Rostered
The 26-year-old should be viewed as a priority handcuff in all leagues. Since moving to San Francisco, Robinson has been deployed as the clear RB2 behind workhorse Christian McCaffrey. No other running back on the roster has logged an offensive snap and, more importantly, taken a carry, suggesting Robinson could see a massive workload in the event McCaffrey misses time.
Even in his limited opportunities, Robinson has been fairly effective, averaging 5.1 YPC over his last five games. During this stretch, Robinson has also been effective in the red zone, punching in two goal-line scores. Managers who roster McCaffrey should view Robinson as a must-stash ahead of their fantasy playoffs, given his lengthy injury history.
Isaiah Davis, RB - NYJ
5% Rostered
The other handcuff RB is a target for deep leagues. With Braelon Allen (knee) on the shelf, Davis has grown into the RB2 role behind Breece Hall in New York. Davis has not had as large a role as Robinson has seen, but has still shown flashes of upside. In Week 8, Davis enjoyed a breakout game, totaling 65 rushing yards on seven carries and 44 yards on five receptions in their upset win over Cincinnati.
While he has only averaged 2.3 attempts per game over the last four, Davis has the skill set to see a three-down role if Hall misses time down the stretch, making him a top handcuff going forward.
Luther Burden III, WR - CHI
15% Rostered
Burden remains the priority WR to stash at his position. Burden opened the season in a reserve role but has quickly become the team's WR3 and has also seen a stark uptick in targets. Over the last three games, Burden has seen at least five targets in each contest, and he saw a season-high six targets in their recent contest on Black Friday.
While he is averaging 7.5 PPR points per game over this stretch, an increased role is a very positive sign. While he carries weekly boom-or-bust value given that Rome Odunze and DJ Moore are still on the roster, if either of them misses time, Burden could enter must-start WR2 territory.

Jalen Coker, WR - CAR
10% Rostered
My final WR to stash enjoyed a long-awaited breakout game this past weekend. During their thrilling upset victory over the Rams, Coker brought in four of his six targets for 74 yards and a score. While he had begun to see an increased role as he ramped up his workload following his early-season quadriceps injury, last week was the first time he truly made an impact in the box score.
Over his previous three games (in which he logged at least 67% of the snaps in each contest), he averaged just 6.8 PPR points per game. With Bryce Young continuing to show signs of progression, and the team lacking a bona fide WR2 opposite of Tetairoa McMillan, Coker could enter high-end FLEX territory, especially in PPR formats.
Managers in deep three-WR formats should stash Coker on their bench during their Week 14 bye.
