RosterWatch Week 3 Waiver Wire Cheat Sheet and Podcast 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 .

  1. Better pick up Jordan Addison or Quentin Johnson PPR league?

    1. Probably QJ

  2. Post By gerrycouey@hotmail.com

    Is Derek Carr a top priority?
    My qbs are Fields and Goff who are not doing very well
    Also, Have Mixon..,,what to do? My bench rbs are Jaleel Mc and Bucky…ppr pick up Braelan Jets backup or one of the Texans?

    1. Carr is a solid QB pick up if you are unsatisfied with the others- although there will be weeks he lets you down too- be mindful of the near term matchups

      I wouldn’t sweat picking up a Texans RB too much

  3. Cody … Kupp owner PPR, need a replacement to win now, Add Nailor and Drop Adonai Mitchell? I see where they are on the sheet but the love was coming thru strong on youtube.

  4. QB Q – i have Goff and Daniels – plan to start Daniels Week 3. should I drop Goff for Deshaun Watson, Geno Smith or Justin Fields? of these is Daniels the best choice ? thanks

    1. Don’t think so

  5. Just lost Pacheco. Currently have
    RB: Pollard, Walker/Charbonett, Braelon Allen, Zeke

    WR: AJ Brown, Pickens, JSN, Zay Flowers

    Someone is offering me Steele for Flowers. Do I pull that in a 12 team Standard? 2rb,2wr, flex

    The draft cheat sheet had me right where I needed to be and now I’m worried with my Brown and Pacheco injuries!

  6. Post By Show Me Your TDs

    14 team dynasty. SF 20 roster slots

    Was offered: Jordan Mason, 2025 4th and 2026 3rd

    But I give up 2025 2nd and 3rd and 2026 2nd

    It’s a startup and I’m very young and RBs are: bigsby, Corum, b Allen, Shipley, Wilson (packers), Watson and Gore

    Would I be giving up too much draft capital for Mason? I’ve already rejected a few offers like 1st round picks

    Need a TE this week… 12 team PPR with Ferguson from Dallas and Hunter Henry on waivers. Who would you go with and how much FAAB would you spend on both?

    1. Prefer Ferguson long term over Henry – also really like Gesicki if you want to keep your spend down-

  8. Me
    PPR 3WR 2 RB 1 Flex
    WR THill, JWaddle, MEvans, TDell, XWorthy
    RB DAchane, JConnor, Jordan Mason, TEtienne, BCorum, JWright

    a league mate panicked and dropped RMostert Do I drop JWright and pick up Mostert? Is this too many Miami players for me? Also available are: Gus Edwards and Braelon Allen
    We do not have any IR bench spots

  9. In PPR
    Available this week in my league:
    WR Rasheed Shaheed, Khalil Shakir, Quentin Johnson, JPalmer
    Dem Robinson D Mooney
    Should I consider picking up one of these WR instead of the end of my bench of WR: Tank Dell XWorthy
    My WR core: THill, JWaddle, MEvans, TDell, XWorthy

    1. I think you will have to strongly consider adding Shaheed and QJ – having both MIA WR is screwing you

  10. 12-team, 0.5, 1-1

    QB: Allen
    RBs: CMC (!), Conner, Hubbard, J. Williams, C. Brown
    WRs: Deebo (!), D. Smith, Godwin
    TEs: Goedert, Ferguson, Parkinson

    Available in my league: Hunter Henry, Shaheed, Perine, Jeudy, Steele, Braelon…just to name a few.

    Somehow managed to win this week…but lost Deebo in the process. Anyone worth dropping (ive got 90/100 FAAB)? What type of trades should I aim for?

  11. Shaheed, Jeudy, Perine, should all be rostered. Don’t mind Hunter Henry or Mike Gesicki at TE…..Braelon a deeper stash but certainly some interest there too,

    You can drop Parkinson and maybe Chase Brown Brown

  12. Is now a good time to tier down from Rachaad White in dynasty (12T SF PPR). He’s currently my RB3.

    Thinking about sending out White, Tracy, and a 2025 2nd for Braelon Allen and a 2025 1st.

    Also, how concerned should we be about Pittman? Is he another one to think about hard selling also?

  13. 10-team .5 PPR.

    I’m a Rachaad White owner.

    Drop Jaylen Warren for Bucky Irving?

  14. Post By gerrycouey@hotmail.com

    Tyler Johnson or Jauan Jennings? Ppr

  15. I should have asked this before I pulled the trigger, but I traded Kamara for a 2025 first. It is a .5 ppr dynasty league with no superflex, the roster is two rb spots, two flex spots, and two wrs, one qb, and one te. My rbs left are Taylor, Jacobs, Dobbins, Ray Davis, Gus bus, White, Chris Brown, and Keaton Mitchell. Did I mess up?

    ROSTERWATCH !! I need some Waiver advice. Start 2 running backs and 3 WRs and a flex. No TEs. My receivers are Marvin Harrison, Deebo (injured), Bowers (as a WR), Pitts (as a WR), Oduzne, and Palmer. RBs are Bijan, Ken Walker (possibly out), R. White (possibly out), and J Brooks. Given the injuries, I obviously have needs at both RB and WR. I pick 4th in waivers and among those avail are Mike WIlliams Q. Johnson, S. Perine, Juan Jennings, Tyler Johnson, Darnell Mooney, and Ty Chandler Can you rank your top 4 please? Would drop Palmer thanks BD
