RosterWatch Week 7 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 .

    .5 ppr

    Would you trade Jayden Daniels for Brock Bowers? Or would you need more?

    My team:

    QB: Lamar (week 14 bye)
    WR: Amon ra
    WR: Marvin Harrison
    Rb: Kyren Williams
    RB: kamara
    TE: Isaiah likely
    W/R: devonta smith

    Bench: Jayden Daniels, Jameson Williams, Xavier worthy, tank dell, Dobbins, Corum, Braelon Allen, jonathon brooks

      I’d take Bowers based on your team. Set and forget starter in a TE wasteland vs headache of starting right QB each week. Is this a redraft league?

      1. ↓ Post By AbnerLofton

        It’s 1 keeper, could keep Jayden in the 12th next year or Bowers in the 8th

          Still probably do it personally given you have Lamar as your QB. What QBs are on the WW right now?

    2. ↓ Post By Alex Dunlap

      I’d do that if I have Lamar

    Jonathan Brooks was dropped last week. Have 2nd waiver priority (don’t ask me why we haven’t moved to FAAB)

    Prioritize him or Meyers? Pretty balanced team WR/RB wise

    12tm PPR (3-3)

    QB: AR (Fields)
    RB: Hall, Henry (Dowdle, B. Allen, Brooks)
    WR: Evans, Shaheed (Waddle)
    TE: Ertz (Hockenson)
    W/R/T: JSN, Javonte Williams
    DEF: Broncos
    IR: Pacheco
    Bench: (6)

    Best available players:

    RB: Ray Davis, Guerendo, Tucker, Vidal
    WR: Demario Douglas, Bateman, Whittington
    QB: Daniel Jones, Russ Wilson

    With 8 teams sitting at 3-3, I’m looking for advice on waiver moves I should consider with limited waiver priority, but I’m also open to general trade advice?

    My squad
    Barkley, henry, javonte, charbonnet, Jonathon brooks

    Tank Dell, nabers, J Mo, Kirk , and Devonta smith

    PPR trying to consolidate I floated a trade offer and the counter was this
    trade Dell, Smith, and brooks for Ceedee and Ridley

      that deal is fine, you’ll build a superteam

    If you were a commissioner would you allow this trade? Straight across Baker Mayfield for Dak Prescott. Dak is on bye this weekend. The person receiving Baker Mayfield would be able to bench Trevor Lawrence.

      Hey doc, I do not to veto trades in leagues with players I know. I think vetoes should only be allowed in public leagues. If you think your leaguemates in your home league are cheating, you should kick them out, not veto their trades.

      1. ↓ Post By MikeVegas

        Thank you Alex. I let the trade go through. The rest of season rankings put Baker and Dak about the same which is why they claim they made the trade.

    Full PPR This week who would you start 6pt TD and 1pt completions.

    Reposting now that waivers already ran …

    12tm PPR (3-3)

    QB: AR (Fields)
    RB: Hall, Henry (Dowdle, B. Allen, Brooks)
    WR: Evans, JSN (Shaheed)
    TE: Ertz (Hockenson)
    W/R/T: Waddle, Javonte Williams
    DEF: Broncos
    IR: Pacheco
    Bench: (6)

    Available:
    RB: Ray Davis, Guerendo, Vidal
    WR: Odunze, Bateman, Whittington, Means
    QB: Daniel Jones, Russ Wilson

    Tucker and Demario Douglas were claimed, but Odunze was dropped. With 8 teams at 3-3, any advice on potential add/drops or trades I should try to improve my roster?

    1. ↓ Post By Alex Dunlap

      Man I’m not sure who you can drop for Rome. would generally not want to have 2 QBs but a lot up in the air with those two. I think I would stand pat. you’re in a short-bench league and there are usually gonna be good players avial.

    12-tm – 0.5 PPR – 3-3 record

    QB: Allen
    RBs: (CMC), Conner, Dobbins, Hubbard, Javonte W
    WRs: Deebo, Davante A, Shaheed, Jeudy
    TEs: (Ferguson), Njoku

    Being offered Hunt and Thomas JR for Dobbins, should I accept it?

    Available players after waivers: Tucker, Means, D’Ernest Johnson, Michael Wilson, Lockett, McCloud, Christian Watson

    Or should I grab anyone available?
