In […]

Week 8 Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds

As the bye weeks necessitate constant waiver wire action, injuries at the running back position have yet to cease. Aaron Jones, Chris Carson, and Kenyan Drake are the latest to pull the rug from under fantasy teams without warning. The pickings may be slim these days but between byes and injuries, you might have no […]

Running Back Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 8

Fantasy GMs are to be commended for rising to the unique challenges that have unfolded during this regular season. Injuries to critical players is an unwelcome reality that occurs every year.

Wide Receiver Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 8

An exciting early slate of football on Sunday, wasn't it? Multiple games coming down to the wire, though we then had a pretty boring second slate. But whatever -- you aren't here to read my thoughts on the games. You're here to figure out what wide receivers to add as we get ready for Week […]

Tight End Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 8

Week 8 should be great for fantasy football managers at the tight end position. Even though four teams are on bye --- Arizona, Washington, Jacksonville, and Houston --- none of them have a top-12 fantasy tight end. So unless your fantasy squad relies on Logan Thomas or Darren Fells to be your top tight end, […]

Quarterback Waiver Wire Pickups and Streamers - Week 8

Explosive passing attacks continue to be the name of the game in 2020. In Week 7, eight quarterbacks attempted 40 or more passes. Eight teams surpassed 300 passing yards and 15 quarterbacks with multiple passing touchdowns. Five quarterbacks had three or more passing scores. Bye weeks continue to chug along and assuming there isn’t any […]

Deeper League Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 8

It’s unbelievable that we are entering the middle portion of the season already, but things are now starting to get more serious in both the NFL and fantasy leagues everywhere. This week brought about another devastating injury, this time to Browns WR Odell Beckham Jr. The importance of the waiver wire remains incredibly important with […]

Top IDP Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 8

A few weeks ago, we put out my hugely popular column, ‘Berating You Softly.’ That column was so popular that several hundred-thousand readers sent me Thank-You letters for my inspirational writing, while a number of you emailed me your heartwarming videos about how I turned your lives around. Heck, I am currently engaged in some […]

Waiver Wire Express - Week 8 Lightning Round

Week 7 saw us skirt further COVID-19 postponements with big performances across the league. Key injuries included Odell Beckham Jr., Diontae Johnson, Deebo Samuel, Jeff Wilson Jr., Phillip Lindsay, N'Keal Harry, Breshad Perriman, Tim Patrick, and Andy Dalton. And then both Chris Carson and Kenyan Drake left SNF with injuries. Week 8 byes are Arizona, […]

Week 7 Defense (DEF) Streamers and Starts - 2020 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

We had some surprise defenses crack the top-10 in Week 6 with the Atlanta Falcons picking off Kirk Cousins seemingly at will and the Tampa Bay Bucs easily handling Aaron Rodgers and the Packers. Even with that, we were able to get six of the top-10 defensive units, but the Indianapolis Colts may be showing […]

Week 7 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2020 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

This NFL season continues to be the weirdest one that I’ve seen in my lifetime. In Week 6, we saw games that we expected to be close turn into blowouts, and we had blowouts turn into close games. If it weren’t for some winding back the clock magic by Indianapolis Colts quarterback Philip Rivers, they […]

Pivot Plays and Post-Waiver Pickups - Week 7

Things are starting to get difficult for fantasy football managers. Indianapolis, Minnesota, Miami and Baltimore all have the week off, so fantasy managers are already playing shorthanded. Fielding a full lineup is going to be tough as it is if you have a few injuries. If one of your key guys is listed as questionable […]

Week 7 Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds

Week 6 was like the 2020 of fantasy football weeks. All those great matchups meant nothing, those studs let you down, and your bench likely went crazy. The good news is that we didn't have any season-ending injuries to running backs or games canceled due to COVID, so in retrospect maybe we shouldn't complain. The […]

Whether it's injuries, bye-week blues, or simply poor performance, we've got the waiver-wire cure...but it just might cost you! Alongside our famous waiver wire pickups list and our weekly waiver wire columns by position, this column focuses on suggested waiver wire bidding percentages for fantasy football owners in leagues using a Free Agent Budget (FAB). In […]

Waiver Wire Express - Week 7 Lightning Round

Week 6 was relatively healthy and had no coronavirus delays, so let's just take a moment to bask in that. That said, we still saw Miles Sanders (knee) and Zach Ertz (ankle) go down, while Mark Ingram (ankle) has a bye to get healthy. Week 7 byes are Baltimore, Indianapolis, Miami, and Minnesota. Let's get […]

Wide Receiver Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 7

Six weeks of NFL football are behind us, aside from a pair of Monday games, including a late afternoon game between the Bills and the Chiefs. In terms of wide receiver production this week, we didn't have the huge breakouts like we had in Week 5. Chase Claypool didn't score four touchdowns. In fact, only […]

Tight End Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 7

Week 7 is not going to be a lucky one for millions of fantasy football managers. The bye week is going to create some gaping holes at the tight end position for millions of fantasy squads. The biggest loss is Baltimore’s Mark Andrews, although Miami’s Mike Gesicki, Indianapolis’ Mo-Alie Cox, and Minnesota’s Irv Smith Jr. […]

Quarterback Waiver Wire Pickups and Streamers - Week 7

Week 6 of the NFL season has mostly come and gone and it was one of the more explosive offensive showcases yet. Six quarterbacks threw for over 300 yards, three quarterbacks passed for four touchdowns, and another three signal-callers had three passing scores. NFL teams have continued to feast on defenses that missed out on […]

Top IDP Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 7

Pickings can always be slim in deep IDP leagues, but this year it is looking thinner than usual in even the shallowest of setups. In fact, going shopping for IDP players in 2020 can often feel like you’re going to the grocery store for filet mignon, only to bring home a roll of toilet paper […]

Deeper League Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 7

The NFL proceeded with Week 6 after several COVID scares last week. Fortunately, no games were canceled and teams were back in action. With a lot of players injured right now, the waiver wire has proved to be incredibly important in terms of getting solid streamers and depth. At this point, many fantasy managers have […]

Week 6 Defense (DEF) Streamers and Starts - 2020 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

I was riding high after predicting eight out of the top ten defenses two weeks ago, but we saw some craziness this Sunday (along with some top tier defenses postponed or canceled), which caused only a 50% success rate in identifying top-10 units. Miami throttling San Francisco was truly a surprise, as was a Kansas […]

Week 6 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2020 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

This NFL season continues to be the weirdest one that I’ve seen in my lifetime. I’ve seen teams come out and get embarrassed by bottom dwellers, and I just watched Ryan Fitzpatrick and the Miami Dolphins absolutely dismantled the San Francisco 49ers. If you ever think that you’re going to be able to accurately predict […]

Pivot Plays and Post-Waiver Pickups - Week 6

The pivot plays and post-waiver pickups keep coming, RotoBallers! There is no Thursday game this week to burn fantasy football players, but there are now two Monday night games and plenty of Sunday games that could catch fantasy managers off guard if they do not have backup plans in place for the “questionable” players on […]

Week 6 Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds

More delays, postponed games, and schedule changes. Get used to the new normal. We should be thankful that we at least have an NFL season that has gone mostly according to plan, other than every good running back being injured. The waiver wire will be more important in 2020 than any previous season, especially after […]
