It’s important to know the top waiver wire targets for each week of the fantasy football season. Beyond the top targets, though, there is benefit to improving your bench and stashing players that are forecasted to increase in value. We’ll also be a great resource for these waiver wire stashes. Here’s a look at fantasy football players you should consider stashing this week. And check out all of our Week 12 fantasy football waiver wire advice.

Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Stash Targets
Running Back Stash Candidates
Earlier in his rookie season, Trey Benson did not look sharp. He has turned the corner and flashed a few times despite living in James Conner‘s shadow. Conner is having a career year for the Cardinals, but his injury history is extensive. Benson would be a huge priority on waivers if Conner were to go down.
It’s still baffling how Sean McVay keeps shoving the ball to Kyren Williams like he’s Eric Dickerson. Williams is a fine player but has no big-play upside. His fantasy relevance hinges entirely on the inexplicable volume he logs in every game, while Blake Corum rusts on the bench. Corum is simply more explosive, and I really can’t believe Williams has lasted this long with his irresponsible snap share. I hope Williams can stay healthy, but I’m keeping Corum just in case.
Wide Receiver Stash Candidate
You might be surprised to see Pearsall’s name here after his Week 11 goose egg, but he still has immense contingent upside. Yes, I know we saw him only manage two targets and zero fantasy points against the Seahawks with George Kittle out of the lineup, but if Kittle were to miss extended time, or if any of the 49ers’ other heavy hitters were to be out for multiple weeks, I doubt we’d see Pearsall on the outside looking in. Pearsall is worth stashing at the end of your bench, because we have seen this 49ers depth chart struggle to stay healthy all year.
