High-Upside Waiver Wire Bench Stashes - Fantasy Football Pickups for Week 14

Our favorite high-upside waiver wire bench stashes, fantasy football sleepers for Week 14 of 2025. Waiver wire stashes include Blake Corum, Brian Robinson Jr., Luther Burden III more.

With the fantasy playoffs just one week away, stashing high-upside league-winners is significantly important. Last season, managers saw players like Tyjae Spears become a must-start low-end RB1 for the final weeks of the season.

In this piece, we will spotlight four players who are widely available who may not hold much standalone value in Week 14 but could become solid options down the stretch.

Who should we be stashing this week? Let's dive in!

• Wide receiver (WR) rankings
• Quarterback (QB) rankings
• Tight end (TE) rankings

High-Upside Waiver Wire Bench Stashes

Only players rostered in fewer than 30% of fantasy football leagues are considered potential streamers.

Brian Robinson Jr., RB - SF
10% Rostered

When looking at the running back position, the most important stash options are typically high-end handcuffs. Brian Robinson Jr. has established himself as the RB2 in San Francisco and would see a massive workload if Christian McCaffrey ever missed time. This season, McCaffrey has logged at least 80% of the snaps in at least eight games and has never seen fewer than 74% of the snaps.

While Robinson has been relegated to a reserve role, he has begun to see his volume take a slight uptick. Over his last four games, he has logged eight carries in all but one, and is averaging a solid 4.2 YPC. Given McCaffrey's massive role as a rusher and a pass-catcher, Robinson could carry low-end RB1 upside in the event the superstar misses time.

If you roster McCaffrey, Robinson is a must-stash.

Blake Corum, RB - LAR
15% Rostered

The other must-stash handcuff saw a significant increase in workload on Sunday. With Kyren Williams (ankle) exiting their contest for some time, Corum was able to take on seven carries for 81 yards and a score. While Williams eventually returned and still finished the game, seeing 67% of the snaps, Corum did not disappoint in his increased workload.

Given his elite offensive environment, Corum would be a borderline RB1 in the event Williams misses time. Seeing him average 11.6 YPC this past weekend suggests his upside is legit and is a top lottery ticket to hold in the final spot on your bench.

Luther Burden III, WR - CHI
10% Rostered

Luther Burden has been a popular stash candidate for several weeks and is quickly approaching viable FLEX territory. During the victory over the Eagles on Friday afternoon, Burden once again was deployed as the team's No. 3 WR. In this game, the rookie wideout logged 51% of the snaps for the second-straight game and brought in four of his six targets for 33 yards.

Since Week 11, Burden has out-snapped Olamide Zaccheaus, the team's No. 3 WR, to open the season and has averaged 5.3 targets per game during this stretch. Given his ability to make plays with the ball, he is the clear top WR to target ahead of the fantasy playoffs. If DJ Moore or Rome Odunze were to suffer an injury, Burden could win leagues.

Managers in three-WR formats should make sure Burden is on their bench during the final month of the season.

Isaiah Likely, TE - BAL
10% Rostered

The final player to stash ahead of Week 14 is Ravens tight end Isaiah Likely. Likely was nearly matching Mark Andrews in snap share and finally enjoyed his long-awaited breakout showing. During their loss to the Bengals on Thanksgiving night, Likely caught five of his six targets for a team-high 95 yards.

Since Week 8, Likely has logged at least 50% of the snaps in each game but has been unable to make a major impact on the box score. While Andrews will remain the team's "TE1" on paper, he is not drawing the same target share as he has in the past. Seeing Likely on the field making plays after the catch (12.4 YPC), managers should expect his production to continue to climb, given how often he is on the field.

While he is not a must-stash in shallower leagues, managers with a fringe TE1 that has provided minimal upside should view Likely as a top target heading into the fantasy playoffs.
