Waiver Wire Report (8/14/22)

There are a ton of players that made my normal requirement to write about them. For the steady guys who have been around all year, I didn’t provide much info on them.

In the article, I cover the players using CBS’s (about 40% or less initial roster rate) and Yahoo’s ADD/DROP rates. Both hosting sites have the option for daily and weekly waiver wire adds.

Here are the players and some information on the ones added in five or more of these leagues: Read the rest of this entry »

Waiver Wire Report (7/31/22)

Waiver Wire Report (7/24/22)

It’s so tough to see who has jumped in value with a few games played. I’m guessing Sunday news and performance will matter more than ever.
