Waiver-Wire Riser Draws High-Scoring Home Matchup Against Carolina
Days after New Orleans claimed him off waivers, Estime tallied 15 carries for 72 yards and a game-winning touchdown against Cleveland. Although he remains listed behind Alvin Kamara and questionable starter Travis Etienne Jr. on the depth chart, his immediate usage points to an active shared workload. Monitor injury updates closely, as Etienne's potential return from injured reserve would squeeze this committee rotation.
Fantasy managers have scooped him onto over half of league rosters, though most are keeping him stashed until his role stabilizes. Our weekly projection cools expectations to 8.3 fantasy points on roughly nine carries with minimal receiving work. Still, hosting a skidding Carolina squad in a matchup expected to be high scoring makes him a viable touchdown-dependent flex play.

Jayden Daniels Carries Strong Rushing Floor Into Rainy Giants Matchup
Daniels enters this road matchup healthy with elite ball security, throwing zero interceptions all season and totaling 491 passing yards over his past two games despite losing a fumble in his latest outing. With Dyami Brown recently landing on injured reserve, Stefon Diggs, Antonio Williams, and Chig Okonkwo headline his pass catchers.
Our weekly projection lands at 22.6 fantasy points, bolstered by roughly 36 rushing yards alongside steady passing volume. Rostered almost everywhere and started across roughly three quarters of leagues, fantasy managers should feel confident slotting him into their lineups.
The main hurdle at MetLife Stadium against a Giants team leading the NFC East is an outdoor forecast for moderate rain in an expected defensive battle, which could cap big plays downfield even as his mobility insulates his floor.
