Week 2 waiver targets DJ Giddens, Jaxson Dart, and Ollie Gordon II spotlight three rookies in fantasy football. Giddens is a 5% rostered Colts rookie who could step in as a pure handcuff if Jonathan Taylor misses time, but expects limited unreleased upside unless Taylor is sidelined. Dart, rostered in about 55% of leagues, is a stash in 14+ team formats with a path to low-end QB1 upside if he sees NYG playing time. Gordon II, around 40% rostered for Miami, is the top Dolphin handcuff behind Achane and could become a solid RB2 if Achane is unavailable. Croskey-Merritt in Washington is a speculative sleeper to monitor as the backfield situation evolves.

Roster specifics: Giddens 5%, Dart 55%, Gordon II 40%. The piece emphasizes rostering strategy for 12+ team leagues and superflex setups, noting Week 1 notes including Taylor’s neck issue and the Giants’ QB2 usage.
