Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Watch Week 7: Ups & Downs

Oct 13, 2024
Waiver Wire Watch Week 7

Five weeks of Waiver Wire Watch in the books … 11 to go (including this one).

This week isn’t particularly top-heavy — the best add is a wide receiver who’s likely about to lose his best quarterback — but there are quite a few deeper options as we look to survive the oncoming bye weeks! And, for the first time in a month, I didn’t have to include Tank Bigsby or Bucky Irving! (Thank you for getting their rostership up.) 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 order I would prioritize waiver claims heading into Week 7.

Overall Top 10

* Evan Engram (honorable mention, rostered in 76% of Yahoo leagues)

1. Josh Downs

2a. JuJu Smith-Schuster

2b. Jerry Jeudy (late add following the Amari Cooper trade)
