By: DK.Network.Editors

Are you satisfied with your Fantasy Football team’s performance? If not, here are five players you should target to improve your roster this week. Click on each player below for more information from our DK Network writers.

This article was updated on October 22 at 5:50 p.m. ET.

Tier 1 – 35-50%


1. WR Cedric Tillman – Cleveland Browns

“Tillman led the team in receiving yards and will likely take over as the team’s top down-field threat. Jerry Jeudy ($4,800; 2.8 FPTS) was not very involved at all and has been a huge disappointment since coming to Cleveland via trade. Tillman is almost universally unrostered but should be involved in the new-look offense.”— Zach Thompson

2. RB Kendre Miller – New Orleans Saints

“In the next two weeks, Miller and the Saints are on the road taking on the Chargers and Panthers. He’s a great option to stash to see his role even if you don’t feel comfortable starting him right away.” — Zach Thompson

3. QB Bo Nix – Denver Broncos

“Nix is owned in under 20% of leagues but has shown plenty of upside due to his dual-threat ability. He ran for 61 yards against the Chargers in Week 6 and threw for two touchdowns on his way to 26.9 fantasy points. He has over 20 fantasy points in three of his last five weeks and over 25 fantasy points in two of those contests.” — Zach Thompson


Tier 2 – 10-20%


4. WR Jalen McMillan – Tampa Bay Buccaneers

“In their limited playing time this season, McMillan has already seen five targets over 20 yards and he owns a 13.7 aDOT, while Palmer has only seen one target over 20 yards with a 9.6 aDOT. Again, both McMillan and Palmer are strong adds this week, but McMillan is the player we should prioritize off the waiver wire in this situation.” — Alex Hunter


5. TE Jonnu Smith – Miami Dolphins

“He had another huge week coming off the bye in Week 7, hauling in all seven passes thrown his way for 96 yards, a touchdown and 22.6 fantasy points. He posted the second-highest total of all tight ends in Week 7 behind only David Njoku.” — Zach Thompson


6. D/ST Detroit Lions

“Whether Will Levis or Mason Rudolph starts, the Titans don’t have the offense to keep up with the high-powered Lions’ offense, and when they try, the Lions should be able to take advantage of the matchup for another big week. They are available in over 80% of leagues after their tough matchup with the Vikings this week.” — Zach Thompson
