Waiver Wire Express - Week 17 Lightning Round

The Week 17 waiver wire pickups & adds lightning round for 2018 fantasy football. Our free agent list includes C.J. Anderson, Brian Hill, Robby Anderson & more.

Congratulations to those of you who took down your fantasy title in Week 16! We here at RotoBaller salute you and are happy to have been a part of the journey. But we know there are those of you who play into Week 17 and we never abandon our own! In the interest of getting you waiver information as fast (and as accurately) as possible, consider this the waiver wire lightning round heading into Week 17.

This column is published early every week and then updated after the MNF game. Each day of the week will also yield other more in-depth waiver wire articles for all positions so be sure to check back.

The below waiver pickups are listed in priority order and broken down by position. Players must be owned in less than 60% of Yahoo leagues and therefore will range from shallow options in standard leagues to deep options in PPR formats.
