Fantasy Football is rounding into its third month of action, which means waiver wire targets are becoming scarce. However, when there's a will, there's a way, or at least an article to point you in the right direction. That's where Sportskeeda comes in. Here's a look at five players you need to strongly consider.

#5 - Chase Young, New Orleans Saints

Chase Young has been up and down in his career, but now finds himself in an uptick moment. Young forced a fumble and earned 1.5 sacks against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday, making him a must-add option for IDP fantasy football.

His trouble has been staying healthy (a calf injury has been holding him back, according to ESPN). However, now is the time to get him while the getting is good.

#4 - JD Bertrand, Atlanta Falcons

JD Bertrand had a great outing against the San Francisco 49ers on Oct. 19 and proved that it wasn't a fluke against the Miami Dolphins on Sunday. Bertrand racked up nine total tackles and a pass defense, proving that he's heating up in the best way for the manager quick enough to jump on the bandwagon.

#3 - Quincy Williams, New York Jets

Quincy Williams has had attendance issues this season, but he has found a way to make a consistent impact in the games that he has played. Williams set a season-high in tackles against the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday, and has shown the ability to get the quarterback on the turf in half of his games this season. You could do worse for your fantasy football team than Williams.

#2 - Rashan Gary, Green Bay Packers

Rashan Gary is still in the top five in total sacks this season, most recently logging a pair of sacks on his former quarterback, Aaron Rodgers on Sunday in primetime. With Micah Parsons continuing to take the attention of the offensive line, Gary's future looks bright.

After a downtick earlier this month, Gary appears to be heating up once again. If he's available in your fantasy football league, get him.

#1 - Khalil Mack, Los Angeles Chargers

Khalil Mack is back on the field after working through his elbow injury, and appears to have knocked the rust clean off. Mack has earned a sack in both games since returning from injury and has earned a sack in each of his last three games. He also forced a fumble against the Minnesota Vikings in his most recent outing.
