Waiver Wire Express - Week 2 Lightning Round

The Week 2 waiver wire pickups & adds lightning round for 2019 fantasy football. Our free agent list includes Marquise Brown, Malcolm Brown, Jamison Crowder & more.

Football Sundays bring excellent food, nonstop RedZone action, loads of smack talk and, of course, the thrilling game itself. The whirlwind of emotions leading to fist-pumping highs, as well as great defeats marked by injuries and others vulturing your points. In the interest of getting you the most timely information for your title matchups, consider this the waiver wire lightning round heading into Week 2.

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.

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