Kevin Szafraniec highlights the best players available on waivers in 50% or more of ESPN and Yahoo leagues heading into Week 13.
As fantasy seasons wind down every year and non-contenders begin to lose interest, without fail there will always be emerging players who fly under the radar because many fantasy managers simply aren’t paying attention. Now that we are coming down the stretch of the 2025 fantasy season, we should not only be keeping our eyes peeled for players who can help bring home championships in 2025 but also for sleepers to be targeting for next season.
While the pool of potential breakout players is vast, there are four rookie wide receivers in particular who have recently proven that they deserve larger roles over the rest of 2025. And if they continue to follow along their current trajectory, we could see them become veritable fantasy stars in 2026.
Byes: None
Players featured in this article who are on bye this week are denoted with an asterisk (*).
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.
