Week 3 Waiver Wire Rankings - Fantasy Football Pickups Include Kareem Hunt, Zack Moss, Nico Collins, Tutu Atwell, more

Kareem Hunt - Fantasy Football Rankings

Fantasy football waiver wire rankings for Week 3 of the 2023 NFL season. Top free agent options to add off waivers, and our rankings will help you prioritize.

Hey, RotoBallers! Welcome back to the third edition of our fantasy football waiver wire rankings for the 2023 NFL season! Today, we will review our Week 3 waiver wire rankings, including which players to prioritize after some huge performances this week. Let's see where players such as Kyren Williams, Zack Moss, Nico Collins, Tutu Atwell, Roschon Johnson, Jayden Reed, Matt Breida, Hunter Henry, Josh Reynolds, Marvin Mims Jr., Zach Ertz, and Allen Robinson II 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. 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 endsquarterbacksdefenseskickers, IDP leagues, and players to consider dropping.
