It's injury and drama-filled week of waiver wire action in fantasy football leagues. We always receive a lot of questions of which players to add off the waiver wire, and who to let go of, but are expecting an uptick this week.
As of last week, we thought it would be a good idea to publish this column weekly -- our list of Week 6 waiver wire rankings. This is our priority list for running backs, wide receivers, tight ends and quarterbacks to add.
It's always a tricky exercise - especially without knowing everyone's league settings, scoring formats, and free agent pool. But hopefully our quick-hit list will help you prioritize your waiver wire moves this week, and set winning lineups.
