Jeff Wilson Jr. - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, Waiver Wire Pickups

Hey, RotoBallers! Week 13 has arrived, and it's "byemageddon" as six teams are on the bye. Fantasy managers could be scrambling for replacements as the Ravens, Vikings, Bears, Raiders, Bills, and Giants are off this week. At RotoBaller, we have always got you covered and are here to help guide you through the bye gauntlet with our Week 13 fantasy football waiver wire rankings for the 2023 NFL season. 

Week 13 is a make-or-break week for some managers, with only two weeks left in the regular fantasy football season. It's time to review which players to add to help you get through not only Week 13 but also who to stash on your bench as we get closer to the fantasy playoffs. As always, there are plenty of NFL injury updates to keep up with.

One of the industry's sharpest fantasy football minds, Nick Mariano, brings you his weekly waiver wire rankings and priority adds for the top 60 potential available options. Here's where key pickups such as Chuba Hubbard, Christian Watson, Keaton Mitchell, Jayden Reed, Pat Freiermuth, Greg Dortch, Justin Watson, and Gerald Everett rank among others.

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