Waiver Wire Express - Week 6 Lightning Round Including Kenneth Walker III, George Pickens, Eno Benjamin, Taysom Hill

Taysom Hill - Fantasy Football Rankings, Waiver Wire Pickups, Draft Sleepers

Welcome back to another rapid-reaction waiver list following most of Week 5's wild action. There were several strong performances and key injuries to players such as Rashaad Penny, James Conner, Damien Harris, Tyreek Hill, Chris Olave, and Pat Freiermuth. Monitor those situations as we look to get ahead of the curve with the waiver wire lightning round heading into Week 6.

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 to complement our free new Who Should I Pickup for Fantasy Football? waiver wire player comparison tool.

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.

Be sure to check all of our fantasy football rankings for 2024:
