The Week 7 waiver wire pickups & adds lightning round for 2021 fantasy football. Our free agent list includes D'Ernest Johnson, J.D. McKissic, Donovan Peoples-Jones & more.
Week 6 brought more action to our screens as the bye weeks start to announce their presence. Injuries rest for no one, which underscores the importance of having depth and making the right waiver moves. And that means it's time for the waiver wire lightning round heading into Week 7.
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. Teams on bye in Week 7: Buffalo, Dallas, Jacksonville, LA Chargers, Minnesota, and Pittsburgh.
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.
