Waiver Wire Express - Week 15 Lightning Round

The Week 15 waiver wire pickups & adds lightning round for 2018 fantasy football. Our free agent list includes Derrick Henry, Dante Pettis, Damien Williams & more.

The fantasy football playoffs are off and running, and we here at RotoBaller are here to help and get you waiver information as fast (and as accurately) as possible for your championship push. Consider this the waiver wire lightning round heading into Week 15.

This column is published early every week and then updated after the MNF game. Each day of the week will also yield other more in-depth waiver wire articles for all positions so be sure to check back.

The below waiver pickups are listed in priority order and broken down by position. Players must be owned in less than 60% of Yahoo leagues and therefore will range from shallow options in standard leagues to deep options in PPR formats.
