RosterWatch Week 17 Waiver Wire Cheat Sheet Now Available

Building a championship-caliber fantasy roster requires basic weekly waiver-wire management. We’ve created the Waiver Wire Cheat Sheet so that in a just a few minutes a week, our users can make the same expert waiver maneuvers we personally make in our own leagues, throughout the season.

Whether you play in a standard waiver-claim format, or in a free-agent bidding system – we’ve got you covered. Read the chart top to bottom, and use it like the Draft Cheat Sheet. It’s not mandatory to go after the very top pick up every single week – use some basic discretion. Insane value can be cultivated through the bottom of the Waiver Wire Cheat Sheet over the course of the season.

All players listed on the WWCS are currently on the waiver wire in at least 50% of fantasy leagues across all major formats.

*Our advice is to recycle an average of 1-2 players per week from the bottom of your roster into hot waiver-wire pickups for the current week. This can be accomplished via waivers, or on the cheap as free-agent pickups post-waiver period .

    Made it to my Championship in a standard league. I have Kirk Cousins at QB and my opponent has Justin Jefferson. I also have AJ Brown and Devonta as WR options along with DK!

    Is it worth grabbing Minshew off waivers and stacking with Phily WRs or roll with Cousins since he got me through first two playoff rounds?

    PPR flex question: Marquise Brown, Jakobi Meyers, Jahan Dotson or AJ Dillon
    Looking for a solid floor here; have Dalvin, Jacobs, AJ Brown and Devonta as great ceiling plays already.
    Thanks!

      thinking Hollywood or Dillon

    2. ↓ Post By Alan Seslowsky

      Dotson is Carson Wentz preferred downfield threat. He is the nuclear option here. Dillon is a safer play , nice upside /floor combo with that pair.
