With Week 5 nearly in the books (there’s still a Monday night game between the Las Vegas Raiders and Green Bay Packers), it’s time to take a look at the best fantasy football waiver wire options for Week 6.
We’ll see two more teams on a bye in Week 6 in the Pittsburgh Steelers and Packers. Neither team is exactly a bastion for fantasy-relevant players, but there are some owners may need to replace.
Here’s a look at the most fantasy-relevant players from each team.
Green Bay Packers: QB Jordan Love, RBs Aaron Jones and A.J. Dillon, WRs Christian Watson, Romeo Doubs and Jayden Reed
Pittsburgh Steelers: QB Kenny Pickett, RBs Najee Harris and Jaylen Warren, WR George Pickens, TE Pat Freiermuth (injured), Steelers D/ST
Now, a look at the best fantasy football waiver wire pickups at each position for Week 6.
