CFF Waiver Wire Targets – Week 6

College Fantasy Football championships are won and lost on the waiver wire.

QUARTERBACKS:

UNLV quarterback Hajj-Malik Williams

• Hajj-Malik Williams (UNLV)

  Fantrax Ownership 9%

  Season Stats: 16 Att, 13 Comp, 182 P-Yds, 3 P-TD, 0 INT, 22 Ru-Att, 207 Ru-Yds, 1 Ru-TD

  Williams took over the starting QB job last week and made the coaching staff wish they gave him the job back in fall camp. Before last week’s game against a good Fresno State team, Williams had only accumulated 10 carries for 88 yards. He was efficient running the offense and gave the passing attack some much needed accuracy on the deep balls. He was used pretty evenly between his throwing and running abilities. All but two teams remaining on the schedule have worse run defenses compared to their pass defenses which is also good for his balanced dual-threat offensive attack style.  

  Next three weeks opponent (pass/run def rank): Syr (52/60), UtSt (127/112), OreSt (50/83)

• Ben Wooldridge (ULLaf)

  Fantrax Ownership 9%

  Season Stats: 115 Att, 79 Comp, 992 P-Yds, 9 P-TD, 3 INT, 26 Ru-Att, 108 Ru-Yds, 3 Ru-TD

  Wooldridge is a veteran QB who has been playing college football since 2018. If you remove the Kennesaw State game where the offense did not need to throw the ball, Wooldridge is averaging 32 pass attempts/game. His TD/INT rate is improving and he does provide some rushing production to offset the INTs. I think Wooldridge is an option in deeper leagues and can provide some good spot-starts as a QB2 in your line-up.

  Next three weeks opponent (pass def rank): SMiss (70), App (115), CoCar (67)
