Fantasy football waiver wire: Week 17 free-agent forecast

Check out the top waiver wire targets in Week 17 of fantasy football.

Championship week is finally here for fantasy football managers, and this will be a big week to use the waiver wire.

Navigating the waiver wire this week will be vital as managers try to capture a title over their leaguemates. Even though most of us are out of contention, it’s still important to at least pay attention to waiver wire additions at this time of the season because it could help when preparing for the 2023 campaign.

We’ll be taking a look at the top available players rostered in ESPN leagues, using the 75% rostered mark as the threshold. If you have any questions about prioritizing a certain player over another, don’t be afraid to hit me up on Twitter (@KevinHickey11). Your questions, comments, and roasts are always welcome!

We also will be taking a look at some deeper players to stash and the top streaming options for the upcoming week.

Fantasy football waiver wire recommendations refer to 12-team league formats, unless specifically stated.

Fantasy Football: Top streaming options in Week 1

Here’s a look at the top streaming options for fantasy football in Week 1.

The first week of football is finally here, which means fantasy football managers are right at home tinkering and researching ways to build the optimal lineup.

It’s right where we all want to be.

Though the draft season is coming to an end, and the majority of managers are set for Week 1, there are those who will be taking on the stream life when it comes to certain positions.

The stream life isn’t for everyone. It’s chaotic, hectic, and stressful. But when it hits correctly, it can have a massive impact on a manager’s lineup.

In order to qualify as a streamer, a player must be available in more than 40% of ESPN leagues at the time of writing. Each week, we will focus on the quarterback, tight end, defense/special teams, and kicker positions.

For each position, I’ll give a “stream of the week” indicating the priority streamer along with an additional two options. Don’t be afraid to hit me up on Twitter with any questions or thoughts on the process (shameless plug – @KevinHickey11).

After taking a look at the top options on the waiver wire for Week 1, here are the top streaming options in fantasy football:

Here are your top streaming options in fantasy football for Week 17 championships.

The final week of fantasy football is finally here and while the majority of managers won’t be competing in their championship games, we still must look at the top streaming options for Week 17.

Without a Thursday night game, we are set to have 15 games on Sunday to go along with a Monday night game to cap off the week. Given the recent surge of COVID-19 throughout the league, streaming the waiver wire is extremely important.

In order to qualify as a streamer, a player cannot be rostered in more than 50% of ESPN leagues. For each position (QB, TE, D/ST), I’ll give a “stream of the week” indicating the priority streamer along with an additional two options. Don’t be afraid to hit me up on Twitter with any questions or if you simply want to roast me for my takes (shameless plug – @KevinHickey11).

Though we no longer have to deal with working around bye weeks, streaming the waiver wire in fantasy football will still be a vital aspect during the playoffs over the next three weeks.

Streaming the waiver wire will be vital this week. With three games on Thursday, some of the choices have to be made quickly. Couple that with the fact that a whole lot of fantasy firepower is on a bye this week as the Kansas City Chiefs and Arizona Cardinals are off. Choosing the right matchups will be crucial.

Officially going into the second half of the 2021 season, the trade deadlines are approaching for fantasy football managers. This means streaming the waiver wire is about to become a vital process en route to a championship run.

Streaming with success is never easy nor is it for the faint of heart. But every manager at some point during the season has to give in to the process and Week 10 will be no different with four teams on a bye.

Those teams include the New York Giants, Chicago Bears, Cincinnati Bengals and Houston Texans. Not a whole lot of fantasy firepower but enough to look to the waiver wire for streaming options.

At the midway point of the 2021 season, fantasy football managers will be needing to use the waiver wire and streaming options as they try to make a push for the playoffs in just over a month.

Week 9 presents another challenge for fantasy managers needing to find replacements off the waiver wire. With four teams on a bye and some impact players missing due to COVID-19, streaming will be vital.

The four teams on a bye in Week 9 include the Seattle Seahawks, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Washington Football Team and Detroit Lions. It should also be noted that Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers won’t play after testing positive for COVID-19.

In order to qualify as a streamer, a player cannot be rostered in more than 50% of ESPN leagues.
