But never fear! It's not too late to whip your team into shape with some savvy pickups. Drafted tight end Jordan Reed in Round 2 and twiddling your thumbs, waiting for him to get back healthy? Lamenting the loss of running back Thomas Rawls and his projected production from your weekly points total?

We have alternative targets at tight end, running back and more for you to target on waivers ahead of Week 8.
