Kevin Szafraniec highlights the best players available on waivers in 50% or more of ESPN and Yahoo leagues heading into Week 6.
We have reached the point of the season when the same names seem to be populating this article week over week. With that in mind, the time is now for savvy fantasy managers to start making waiver-wire bets on players who could deliver huge down the stretch.
Bye Weeks: Houston, Minnesota
Before we dive into the players, just a few reminders about how the article is set up:
- To be included as a potential add, a player must be rostered in at most 50% of ESPN or Yahoo leagues
- To be included as a potential drop, a player must be rostered in more than 50% of ESPN or Yahoo leagues
- FAAB recommendations will be given but also serve as tiers for leagues without FAAB budgets. The rationale behind FAAB recommendations is: If I had $1,000 in FAAB, what is the absolute most I’d be willing to spend on this player?
- All positional rankings and statistics are taken from RotoViz’s Monday Review tool.
