The Week 2 waiver wire pickups & adds lightning round for 2023 fantasy football. Our free agent list includes Kyren Williams, Justice Hill, Romeo Doubs, Puka Nacua & more.
Howdy, RotoBallers, and welcome to the opening lightning waiver reaction piece of the 2023 season. We're here as a quick reaction force to get key names on your radar with the week's early performances and injuries. Let's start strong and take our first step towards the title with the waiver wire lightning round heading into Week 2.
This column is published early every week and then updated on a daily basis. Each day of the week will also yield more in-depth waiver wire analysis for all positions.
Waiver pickups are listed in priority order (in a vacuum) and broken down by position. Players must be rostered in roughly less than 60% of Yahoo leagues and therefore will range from shallow options in standard leagues to deep options in PPR formats.
Editor's Note: The FFPC Playoff Challenge is back with a massive $500,000 grand prize and $1.35 million total prize pool, paying down to 800th place. Here's the deal: no salary cap, no draft, no pickups, no subs. Choose 10 players, and as NFL teams get knocked out so will your players, so choose your team wisely. The 7,250 entries will sell out quickly, and registrations will close on Saturday January 10th at 4:30 pm ET . Don't wait - get your team now and end your fantasy football season with a shot at $500,000! Sign Up Now!
