Fantasy football waiver wire rankings for Week 16 of the NFL season. These are free agent options to add off waivers, and our rankings will help you prioritize.
Welcome back RotoBallers, we have reached Week 16 of the NFL season. Congrats to all of you who are still in it! Each week we put together a comprehensive list of fantasy football waiver wire articles, and this week is no different. We will be with you until the very end, hopefully helping you win that fantasy football championship.
Our fantasy football waiver wire articles get published on Mondays and Tuesdays each week. First up is our overall waiver wire article, by lead editor Pierre Camus, and the famous waiver wire express lightning round compliments of Nick Mariano. These give a nice overview of the waiver wire pickup options each week.
If you're in a league with FAAB waivers (blind bids), this top-notch FAAB waiver wire article by Nick Mariano is a must-read. He lists the players to target off the waiver wire, and how much of your remaining FAAB budget to spend. In addition to these articles, we also dig deeper for each position with individual waiver wire articles: running backs, wide receivers, tight ends, quarterbacks, defenses, kickers, IDP leagues and players to consider dropping.
