Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds
We had a clear frontrunner for top waiver priority and FAB burner this week before Sunday even began.

Quarterback Waiver Wire Pickups- Week 4

Week 3 Defense (DEF) Streamers and Starts - 2021 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

Pivot Plays and Post-Waiver Pickups: Week 3
There are more “questionable” players on the NFL injury report than questionable “healthy” options on a fast food menu. As the games pile up, so do the injuries. This makes the life of a fantasy football general manager more difficult than a mask salesman at an anti-vaccine convention. Because the players on their rosters will... Read More
Week 3 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2021 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings
Hopefully y'all read this article last week because you would've gotten a "leg-up" on your competition.

Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds
Week 2 was ugly in the early slate with low-scoring games and QB injuries across the board. Things picked up through the afternoon but the typical surprises that make fantasy football so aggravating at times resurfaced. Touchdown vultures, mid-game injuries, and big-name duds (looking at you, Alvin Kamara) were all present. Nevertheless, we move on to... Read More
Florio's Deeper-League Waiver Wire Adds
Deeper leagues are the forgotten stepchild of fantasy football content. Waiver wire articles typically focus on players that are available in 10 or 12 team leagues. It can be frustrating when you click through articles and every player named is already rostered in your 16, 20 or 24 team league. That is exactly what this... Read More

Tight End Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 3
It only took two weeks of NFL action for fantasy football managers to desperately need tight ends.

High-Upside Bench Stashes: Week 2
Fantasy football often requires thinking ahead of the competition. This article introduces high-upside bench stashes to target on league waiver wires ahead of Week 2, as most leagues use either a free-agent auction-based (FAAB) waiver system or a standard worst-to-first order for top waiver priority. Either way, taking advantage of players ahead of plus-matchups in... Read More
Week 2 Defense (DEF) Streamers and Starts - 2021 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings
What a Week 1. As we've come to expect from the NFL, we saw the unexpected. We had some young teams (like the Eagles) break out and some veteran teams (like the Packers) fall short. However, it's important that we keep our heads on straight. It was only one week and, barring injury, that shouldn't... Read More

That is what this... Read More
