Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Watch Week 3: You Got a Fast Carr
One week of Waiver Wire Watch in the books … 15 to go (including this one). If you need a running back this week? Good luck. It’s not pretty. If you need a kicker or a defense? Boy, do I got you. No, but in all seriousness, the Week 2 and Week 3 waiver wire columns are among the most important of the season. Read on and may your FAAB bids be perfectly calculated.
As always, the recommended additions will be available in more than 40% of Yahoo leagues, while the Drop List will consist of players rostered in at least 50% of leagues.
The Overall Top 10 is prioritized by relatively standard league and roster construction, with room for adjustment based on your individual situation. In a vacuum, this would be the precise order I would prioritize waiver claims heading to Week 3.
