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.

October 8, 2013 by Greg Brosh

Zac Stacy? Isaiah Pead? Benny Cunningham? One or maybe even two of these guys were picked up by owners last week when Daryl Richardson tweeted that there would be competition for the Rams starting running back job going into Week 5 against Jacksonville. Pead initially appeared to be the slight favorite despite his disappearance coming […]

As you prepare your roster for your personal Week 5 matchups, you might find yourself in need of a RB. Adrian Peterson, Doug Martin and Alfred Morris are unavailable due to their byes, and several highly coveted starters – we’re looking at you now C.J.
