Week 1 is officially here! Welcome RotoBallers, to our first article for waiver wire pickups! Now that most fantasy drafts are over, it's time to scour the waiver wire for potential pickups to help bolster your roster. Let's see where players such as Jaylen Warren, Tank Bigsby, Marvin Mims Jr., De'Von Achane, and Noah Gray 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 lightning round compliments of Nick Mariano will be available after Week 1. 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 also be available after Week 1. 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.
