Week 12 Waiver Wire Rankings - Fantasy Football Pickups

Fantasy football waiver wire rankings for Week 12 of the NFL season. These are free agent options to add off waivers, and our rankings will help you prioritize.

Welcome back RotoBaller to Week 12 of the fantasy football season. There are two teams on bye again this week, and injuries to deal with as always. While the waiver wire options aren't as thrilling as other weeks, it's always important to make the right winning moves. We pride ourselves at providing the most comprehensive roundup of fantasy football waiver wire articles around, and here's a quick summary for anyone not yet familiar:

Every Monday and Tuesday our team published a variety of fantasy football waiver wire articles to help guide you on which waiver wire pickups to make. To kick it off, make sure to check out our overall waiver wire article from our lead editor Pierre Camus and our waiver wire express lightning round from Nick Mariano to get an overview of the Week 12 waiver wire landscape.

If your league uses waiver wire blind bidding, rather than waiver priority, our FAAB waiver wire article from Nick Mariano is a must-read as he guides you on what portion of your remaining free agent budget to bid and spend on players when grabbing them off waivers. And more in-depth analysis and recommendations, you can check out our waiver wire advice for each individual position: running backswide receiverstight endsquarterbacksdefenseskickers, IDP leagues and players to consider dropping.
