The Best Waiver Wire Picks

The waiver wire is literally the single most powerful tool you can use to dominate your league. When hitting the waiver wire your goal is simple, replace your slackers with starters. You'll be temped to hold onto your draft picks because of the investment you made. Resist the urge to hold on to dead weight. Each season we see guys rise and fall. Drop the players that are failing and pick up the guys that are rising, it's that simple.

Weeks 1, 2, 3 and 4 are the most critical! During the opening weeks you'll see wide receiver battles flesh themselves out, typically at the WR2 position or slot. Running back platoons (RBBC) may change as one runner rises above the rest enough to warrant a starting position on your team. Tight ends that no one saw coming put together several strong games and become solid depth or trade bait. Lastly, quarterbacks and team defenses can be streamed. We publish the best waiver wire picks every week, see below for our most recent picks.

Harry Douglas: Must Grab Waiver Wire Pickup

October 22, 2013 by Greg Brosh

When Harry Douglas was forced into the starting lineup after both Julio Jones and Roddy White became sidelined with injuries, I had my doubts if he could be a true No. 1 receiver. Douglas had been a starter in the past, most recently in 2011 when Jones was absent for 3 games. Lets just say […]
