Waiver Wire Express - Week 12 Lightning Round Including Rachaad White, Samaje Perine, Treylon Burks, Juwan Johnson

Samaje Perine - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, Waiver Wire Pickups

The Week 12 waiver wire pickups & adds lightning round for 2022 fantasy football. Our free agent list includes Rachaad White, Samaje Perine, Treylon Burks, Juwan Johnson & more.

Week 11 was the Tony Pollard show, so I hope you had good seats. There were some key injuries that struck Joe Mixon (concussion), Kyle Pitts (knee), Justin Fields (shoulder), Matthew Stafford (concussion), and others. Check back often across RotoBaller for updates as we bring you an initial waiver wire lightning round heading into Week 12.

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 to complement our free new Who Should I Pickup for Fantasy Football? waiver wire player comparison tool.

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. There are zero teams on bye in Week 12 so let it rip!

Editor's Note: The FFPC Playoff Challenge #2 is back with a massive $100,000 grand prize and $203,250 total prize pool, paying down to 100th place. Here's the deal: no salary cap, no draft, no pickups, no subs. Choose 8 players, and as NFL teams get knocked out so will your players, so choose your team wisely. The entries will sell out quickly, and registrations will close on Saturday January 17th at 4:30 pm ET . Don't wait - get your team now and end your fantasy football season with a shot at $100,000!
