Key Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Picks for Week 8

Jonah Coleman and Rachaad White are highlighted as essential additions for Fantasy football managers in Week 8. Both players are expected to make significant contributions moving forward.

Coleman, who is 68 percent rostered, returned from an ankle injury and led the Denver Broncos' backfield with nine carries for 54 yards and two receptions for 15 yards against Arizona. Broncos coach Sean Payton indicated that Coleman should receive more touches, suggesting his growing role in the offense. He is recommended for at least 25 percent of remaining FAAB and could serve as a flex option against Kansas City.

White, currently 72 percent rostered, is set to take on a lead role for the Washington Commanders following the injury of Jacory Croskey-Merritt. In his last game, he recorded seven carries for 27 yards and four catches for 30 yards with a touchdown. White is advised for at least 20 percent of FAAB and is considered a borderline starter against Philadelphia. Both players are anticipated to be highly sought after on the waiver wire this week.
