The Week 16 waiver wire pickups & adds lightning round for 2022 fantasy football. Our free agent list includes Zay Jones, Deon Jackson, Marquise Goodwin, Rashid Shaheed & more.

The playoffs are off and running with most of Week 15 behind us, which means those championship dreams draw ever closer! We saw a wacky ending in Las Vegas and some key injuries struck Jonathan Taylor, Tyler Lockett, and more. You already know to keep track of their updates on RotoBaller as we bring you an initial waiver wire lightning round heading into Week 16.

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.
