Welcome to the Fantasy Football Waiver Wire for Week 8! In an odd bit of scheduling, there are no Byes in Week 8, and that might make it feel like the Waiver Wire is less important. But injuries and disappointing performances continue to vex fantasy managers, so this week is no different. The Waiver Wire is like Hogwarts. It offers help to those who ask for it. But you have to ask. If you aren’t actively playing the wire each week, you’re putting yourself at a big disadvantage.
The Process: Each week, I try to identify the top Waiver Wire targets and evaluate the short- and long-term prospects of those players.
