Week 1 Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Advice: Players to Target, Stash & Drop (2022)

Week 1 Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Advice: Players to Target, Stash & Drop (2022)

Hello, dear waiver wire fisherman. Welcome to our pond.

This is the first installment of FantasyPros’ new weekly waiver wire guide. Our aim is to give you all the information you need to navigate waivers throughout the season. That includes…

Player reports. We’ll take a closer look at players who are rostered in less than half of Yahoo leagues and might be able to help fantasy teams.

Custom-fit FAAB bid recommendations. Most waiver articles include a suggested FAAB bid for each player, but there’s no context to that amount. The manager who’s been shredded by injuries is going to bid more aggressively than the manager who’s trying to upgrade his last bench spot inexpensively. We’re going to have three recommended bids for each player based on a $100 season-long budget: a true-value bid (what we think each player is worth in a vacuum), a desperate-need bid (if you absolutely must have this guy), and a budget-minded bid (for when FAAB dollars are tight or you simply want to price-enforce).

Stash candidates. Which players currently have no stand-alone value but have significant potential value? We’ll offer a weekly list.
