Week 8 Waiver Wire Rankings - Fantasy Football Pickups

Welcome to Week 8 RotoBallers. This week will be filled with more difficult decisions, and important waiver wire pickups, although it will not compare to last week's bye-pocalypse. Only two teams are on bye in Week 8, but injuries are always a factor. As always, we are here to help you with our waiver wire analysis and advice to help you pickup the right players for your fantasy football rosters. Here's a quick rundown for Week 8:

In case you are not familiar, each and every week we publish various fantasy football waiver wire articles to help you figure out which free agents to grab off the waiver wire. Our incredible team of fantasy football analysts are putting out their waiver wire articles early in the week, and updating them as more news is announced each day. To kick things off, you must read our overall waiver wire article from lead editor Pierre Camus and our waiver wire express lightning round to get a feel for the waiver wire landscape.

If you are in a league with waiver wire blind bidding, check out the FAAB waiver wire article from Nick Mariano who recommends how much of your free agent budget to bid and spend on players when trying to add them off the waiver wire. And then you can take a deeper dive into each position, for more in-depth analysis and recommendations: running backswide receiverstight endsquarterbacksdefenseskickers, IDP leagues and players to consider dropping.

Hopefully this helps you win your waiver wire this week and bolster your roster for Week 8! Let's get to it.
