MORE WEEK 8: FAAB budget planner | Buy-low, sell-high Top fantasy football waiver wire pickups for Week 8 As long as you're not dropping a legitimately good player with long-term upside, check the matchups and consider some of these streamers. Don't settle for a borderline player with a poor to mediocre matchup just because they're already on your roster.

There are a bunch of widely available and decent players, especially at QB, TE, and D/ST, with favorable matchups this week. Overall, this a poor waivers week but a strong free agent week. (Also, check to see if yours is one of the 26 percent of Yahoo leagues where Jerry Jeudy is available.)

Other than those two, chances are you won't use a waiver claim unless you really need help at a certain position or want one of the returning IR guys. Depending on how Penny performs on Monday night, he could also require a high claim. Gainwell is going to command a top waiver claim unless we get optimistic news on Sanders before Tuesday night (which we probably won't). Quarterback | Running back | Wide receiver | Tight end | D/ST | Kicker ( Update: Lazard is likely out because of being on the COVID list, opening the door for Randall Cobb to be Green Bay's No.

And even though there are just two Week 8 byes (Raiders, Ravens), we also have also have a ton of Week 8 streamer suggestions at QB, WR, TE, and D/ST, which can be found at the end of this list. Our full free agent list features several more interesting WRs (Allen Lazard, Darius Slayton, Kalif Raymond), some worthwhile handcuffs (Brandon Bolden, Devonta Freeman), and a couple key players returning from injury (Rashaad Penny, Michael Gallup, Tre'Quan Smith). However, what we lack in quality, we make up for in quantity.
