RosterWatch Week 8 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. Who is a better hold Jameson Williams or Jakobi Meyers in PPR league?

  2. 12tm PPR (4-3)

    QB: Darnold
    RB: Hall, Henry (B. Allen, Brooks)
    WR: Waddle, JSN (Evans, Odunze, Bateman)
    TE: Kraft (Hockenson)
    W/R/T: Javonte Williams, Dowdle
    DEF: Broncos
    IR: Pacheco
    Bench: (6 spots)

    Available players:

    WR: McMillan, Pearsall, Tillman, T. Franklin
    RB: Goodson, E. Wilson, R. Davis, K. Miller, R. Johnson

    I’m considering dropping Evans (since he’s hurt) or Pacheco (in my only IR spot). Should I drop one of them and/or anyone else to make room for a waiver add? Which available players should I target?

    Also, I know Byron’s trade report is coming soon, but with Evans out, I might need to make a trade to upgrade at WR? Any advice on potential moves I should look at?

    1. Update: I guess Evans won’t be back til Week 12. Not sure when Pacheco is back but only 1 IR spot sucks.
