The Week 8 waiver wire pickups & adds lightning round for 2019 fantasy football. Our free agent list includes Chase Edmonds, Zach Pascal, Sam Darnold & more.
The better part of seven weeks is in the fantasy football books, making those early trends very real -- for better or worse. One must still consider the matchups played thus far and those to come, but usage and volume are becoming reliable. Week 8 sees the Ravens and Cowboys hit their bye week. To get you the quickest intel for Sunday night waiver-wire planning, here is the waiver wire lightning round heading into Week 8.
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.
