Six weeks of Waiver Wire Watch in the books … 10 to go (including this one).

I won’t lie to you all. It’s not pretty in these waiver-wire streets. Depending on what you need, there are some decent short-term options, streams, and stashes, but no one to break the bank on. Still, the smallest moves can sometimes make all the difference in a playoff run! 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 situation. In a vacuum, this would be the order I would prioritize waiver claims heading into Week 8.
