While some fantasy seasons are over, we here recognize many are still battling in Week 17. Let's take a moment to applaud that we have had a full NFL season thus far, with some admitted turbulence along the way. Week 17 is always messy with backups getting additional play so keep your eyes on the news. For now, here is the waiver wire lightning round heading into Week 17.
This column is published early every week and then updated on a daily basis. Each day of the week will also yield more in-depth waiver wire analysis for all positions.
Waiver pickups are listed in priority order (in a vacuum) and broken down by position. Players must be rostered in roughly less than 60% of Yahoo leagues and therefore will range from shallow options in standard leagues to deep options in PPR formats.
