Waiver Wired - Week 8
Top fantasy football waiver adds following Week 7
It is Week 8 in fantasy football, and we are nearing the halfway point to the championship. The fantasy season is filled with uncertainties, such as injuries, bye weeks, and waiver wire opportunities. In this week's column, we will provide a list of waiver wire priorities in various positions to help fantasy managers make informed decisions. All ownership percentages are based on Yahoo's data.
QUARTERBACKS
1. Kirk Cousins, Las Vegas Raiders (57% owned)
Cousins is currently fourth in fantasy points among all quarterbacks, leading the NFL with 16 touchdown passes. He is in solo possession of that lead over Joe Burrow and Brock Purdy. However, with the Raiders losing games, the Raiders may trade him to another team.
2. Jacoby Brissett, Arizona Cardinals (27% owned)
Brissett has Trey McBride, Michael Wilson, and Kendrick Bourne at his disposal. His Week 8 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys is crucial, as the Cowboys have allowed a league-high 8.7 yards per pass attempt this season. Darnold, on the other hand, has struggled with turnovers and inconsistency this season.
