Fantasy football teams prepare for NFL trade deadline with key waiver targets
Summary

As the NFL trade deadline approaches next Tuesday, fantasy football managers are advised to target certain players off the waiver wire. Chris Allen highlights Keenan Allen of the Colts and Ryan Flournoy of the Cowboys as potential pickups due to their increased roles. Allen has shown consistent target volume, making him valuable even without a guaranteed starting receiver on the Colts. Flournoy, meanwhile, has been making an impact on the Cowboys' offense, suggesting he could continue to see more opportunities as the season progresses. Being proactive in roster adjustments may offer an advantage before the trade deadline.
