Congratulations on advancing through what will undoubtedly go down the most challenging season ever. It took a special effort to navigate the myriad injuries, pandemics, and other calamities that made 2021 so complex.

Now, the only thing left is to give your squad the best chance you can in wrapping up that final victory. Knowing which fantasy football free agents to target on the waiver wire is one of the best ways you can do that. Here are some of the players to target ahead of the 2021 finale.

FAAB denote Free Agent Acquisition Budget

Boston Scott (RB) Philadelphia Eagles (35% FAAB) – Miles Sanders has already been ruled out this week with a broken hand and Jordan Howard is dealing with a shoulder injury. After Sanders exited Sunday’s victory, Scott got a dozen carries including a goal-line plunge, and could be in for a big role this week if Howard is also ruled out.

Dare Ogunbowale (RB) Jacksonville Jaguars (25% FAAB) – After James Robinson tore his Achilles, Ogunbowale came in and took over Robinson’s lead dog role, racking up 19 touches in relief. With Robinson out, Ogunbowale should maintain a very high snap rate, including plenty of targets against New England’s stout run defense…

Ronald Jones (RB) Tampa Bay Buccaneers (65% FAAB) – This is what you saved up some of your FAAB for. With Leonard Fournette (hamstring) expected to miss the remainder of the fantasy season, Jones is now in prime position to see 15 touches for a Bucs’ offense that should be motivated to rebound quickly against the Panthers. Jones isn’t much of a receiver but looked more explosive as a runner Sunday night. View Jones as a locked-in Weekly RB2 moving forward and try to add him everywhere you can.

Duke Johnson (RB) Miami Dolphins (40% FAAB) –

Now that we’re in do-or-die mode, each remaining FAAB dollar is more valuable than ever. Let’s take a look at some of the key free agents ahead of Week 15 and figure out how much of that remaining budget we should use.

Rashaad Penny (RB) Seattle Seahawks (40% FAAB) – The talent has always been there but Penny has always struggled to stay healthy. Week 14 delivered on that skillset as Penny took lead back duties for the Seahawks and turned 35 snaps into 17 touches, 138 yards, and two scores. With Adrian Peterson inactive and Alex Collins playing just 14 snaps, Penny is poised to be a real difference-maker while healthy and is worth a substantial FAAB bid.

D’Onta Foreman (RB) Tennessee Titans (10% FAAB) – Tennessee continues to trot out a two or three-man backfield but Foreman appears to be the easy choice in fantasy formats. Even though he was out-snapped by Dontrell Hilliard and Jeremy McNichols…
