Week 16 Waiver Wire Rankings (2024) - Fantasy Football Pickups Include Romeo Doubs, Hollywood Brown, Brenton Strange, Kendre Miller, Patrick Taylor

Romeo Doubs - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Fantasy football waiver wire rankings for Week 16 of the 2024 NFL season. Top free agent options to add off waivers, and our rankings will help you prioritize.

Congratulations to the fantasy managers who picked up the win and are heading into the final four of the fantasy playoffs. The grind never stops. At RotoBaller HQ, we are here to help you earn those bragging rights and hoist the championship hardware in 2024 with our Week 16 fantasy football waiver wire rankings for 2024. It's time to scour the waiver wire and add those players who could help secure that fantasy championship.

There were more crucial injuries last week, with Cleveland Browns running back Nick Chubb suffering a broken foot in Sunday's loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, ending his season. Kansas City superstar quarterback Patrick Mahomes suffered a mild high-ankle ankle sprain on Sunday and is considered week-to-week. The fantasy playoffs continue, and more questions must be answered after Sunday's results. Is Romeo Doubs Green Bay's No. 1 wide receiver? David Montgomery is out for the season. Does Craig Reynolds become a must-add? Is Michael Penix Jr. the top quarterback option to add in Week 16?

Our waiver wire rankings will help answer these questions. 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 options. Good luck in Week 16 on the waiver wire!

Be sure to check all of our fantasy football rankings for 2025:
