Team Parjus

This receiver, who finished the season with only 42 catches for 425 yards and three touchdowns, was picked up three separate times over the course of the season, all by the same manager
Romeo Doubs (Team Ruffolo)
This manager was surprised that other managers would not trade Tony Pollard nor Keenan Allen for post-concussion Tua Tagovailoa (and dropped him two weeks after shopping these offers)
Team Werner
Drafted in the third round, this draft day disaster played 16 out of 17 games and still finished outside the top 25 wide receiver ranks in standard scoring

This tight end exploded for 11 receptions, 162 yards, and two touchdowns in week 14 which was the second best tight end performance of the season
Evan Engram
This receiver caught seven passes for 92 yards and a touchdown in an impressive week eight performance, but was dropped days earlier in favor of Tight End Greg Dulcich
Rondale Moore (Team Grussmark)

After week one, this receiver was waivered for a steep $16 but went on to average just 1.5 fantasy points per game in 15 games of the remaining 16 games in the season
Chosen Anderson (Team Boyd)
Managers from this city have repeatedly displayed a willingness to spend money (at times illicitly), rather than rely on talent, to get an edge
Miami
Drafted at the end of the fifth round, this draft day darling didn't miss a game and led the league in yards per reception (minimum 20 receptions)

Dyami Brown
This Tight End was dropped in favor of Quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo hours before delivering a 74 yard and two touchdown performance in week 10 which led to the manager losing by less than one fantasy point
