7 Fantasy Football Stash Candidates Ahead of Week 6
Plucking players off the waiver wire and stashing them ahead of your league mates is certainly advantageous if you can make it happen, and this series does its best to provide you with some names to consider every week. With bye weeks starting and injuries plaguing rosters across the league, grabbing the right players can be a difference-maker in the weeks to come.
Clear out those benches (check out my Dead Weight Report on who to drop) and make room for this week’s crop of emerging fantasy assets.

Jamaal Williams, RB - Saints (42% rostered)
The earliest Jamaal Williams can return to the field is Week 7 following a stint on IR due to a hamstring injury so now would be the time to stash him if you’re RB-needy like most managers. It’s tough to know exactly where he’ll fit in with Alvin Kamara now activated and cruising, and Kendre Miller also in the mix, but there should be some juicy goal-line and change of pace work for Williams upon his return.
