The Week 9 waiver wire pickups & adds lightning round for 2021 fantasy football. Our free agent list includes Kadarius Toney, Carlos Hyde, Boston Scott & more.
Well, Week 8 once again reminded us that nothing is certain in the NFL as the Jets beat the Bengals for a full dose of spooky on Halloween. There were also several in-game injuries and pregame pivots from Dak Prescott, Calvin Ridley, and more. Gather yourselves and let's dive into the waiver wire lightning round heading into Week 9.
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. Teams on bye in Week 9: Detroit, Seattle, Tampa Bay, and Washington.
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.
