Video: Week 8 Waiver Wire: MUST-ADD Pickups & Deep Sleepers
Seth McGawan plays a season high in snaps. Jonathan Taylor plays a season low in snaps... Seth McGawan gets 11 carries for 46 yards, and he also catches a pass. If Jonathan Taylor were moved, then Seth McGawan would have a full-time role... McGawan would have 15 to 20 touches on a weekly basis.

Priority add as Taylor handcuff with 15-20 touch upside if traded

McGawan should be rostered as a priority add due to Jonathan Taylor trade rumors gaining traction. In Week 8, McGawan played season-high snaps while Taylor played season-low snaps; McGawan had 11 carries for 46 yards and a catch. If Taylor is traded, McGawan would have a full-time role with 15-20 touches weekly. Even without a trade, McGawan is the direct handcuff to Taylor and would see similar workload if Taylor misses time. DJ Giddens is inactive and not a factor, leaving McGawan as the clear backup.
