To help you become champion, QMI Agency offers you some players to dress in the coming weeks:
Jalen Hurts and his gang

The Philadelphia Eagles quarterback's performance last week has you wondering and thinking about keeping him on your bench? That would be a big mistake! Hurts has been very good this season and has a lot to prove in the coming weeks after two straight losses. In addition, the Eagles will face some rather weak opponents in the next three weeks. They meet with the Seattle Seahawks, New York Giants and Arizona Cardinals. The advice to draft Hurts also applies to AJ Brown (WR), DeVonta Smith (WR), D'Andre Swift (RB) and Dallas Goedert (TE).

No one in your league has made it to running back? Now is the time to do it before it's too late. Elliott was stuck behind Rhamondre Stevenson for most of the season with the New England Patriots. The latter has been on the sidelines for two weeks and the former Dallas Cowboys have exploded. Last week against the Pittsburgh Steelers, he rushed for 68 yards on 22 carries and 72 yards and a touchdown on seven catches. It will pay off as long as Stevenson recovers from his ankle injury, which could take quite a long time.

“OBJ” has his best performance of the season with four catches for 97 yards and a major. He was also targeted 10 times, which is always a good sign. The veteran also showed a brilliant performance three weeks ago and seems to be on the way up. The risk is worth it for pool players who have little to no depth at pass catcher. The Baltimore Ravens face the Jacksonville Jaguars and the San Francisco 49ers in the next two weeks. These are teams that have made a habit of giving up a lot of points to opposing receivers.

The Washington Commanders player has had at least 50 yards or a touchdown in seven of the 12 games he has played so far this season. His team plays catch-up football almost every week. This is a factor that should not be ignored as it favors very long passes and Samuel is targeted more often in this style of play.

He likely replaced Mark Andrews (who was injured for the rest of the season) with the Ravens and is doing well. The young man just had his best match of his career and Lamar Jackson trusts him. Even if you have a talented tight end like Travis Kelce or Sam LaPorta, claiming Likely on waivers will keep one of your rivals from doing it. Anything is possible in the playoffs!
