Fantasy football waiver wire rankings for Week 2 of the 2023 NFL season. Top free agent options to add off waivers, and our rankings will help you prioritize.

Welcome back RotoBallers to our second edition of our fantasy football waiver wire rankings for the 2023 NFL season!

Let's see where players such as Justice Hill, Puka NacuaKyren Williams, Kendrick Bourne, Tyler Allgeier, Hayden Hurst, Kenneth Gainwell, Hunter Henry, Zack Moss, Roschon Johnson, Jerome Ford, and Jordan Love rank among others.

Each week our NFL team puts out a complete array of fantasy football waiver wire articles to compliment our slick new Who Should I Pickup? Waiver wire player comparison tool. Here is a quick rundown of our articles. Our fantasy football waiver wire articles are published on Mondays and Tuesdays weekly. First up is our overall waiver wire article by Robert Lorge and the famous waiver wire express article 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), our top-notch FAAB waiver wire article by Nick Mariano is a must-read, which will be available soon. He lists the players to target off the waiver wire and how much of your remaining FAAB budget to spend. We also dig deeper for each position with individual waiver wire articles: running backswide receiverstight endsquarterbacks, defenses, kickers, IDP leagues, and players to consider dropping.
