This article highlights fantasy football players worth picking up off the waiver wire for championship week.
The second round of the fantasy postseason is in the rearview mirror, so we are now down to the final two in the majority of fantasy leagues as we head into championship week. That means most lineups are set, but some Week 16 injuries and surprise performances have created opportunities for several players who are available in many leagues. To help with those decisions, here's a look at 10 players (and other notables) you should look to add off the waiver wire.
Also, be sure to join me and Lindsay Rhodes five days a week, including Tuesdays when we do a deep dive into the free agents! Kendre Miller, RB, Saints (ESPN – 47.1%; Sleeper – 49%; Yahoo! – 46%) Miller was a hot add off the waiver wire last week, but he’s still a free agent in more than 50 percent of the three major platforms. Reports suggest that Alvin Kamara could be done for the rest of the season, which would leave Miller to see a huge uptick in touches. And with a plus matchup against the Raiders in Week 17, he could have some legitimate flex value. Spears was coming off the best fantasy performance of his career, scoring two touchdowns and 27.2 points in Week 15. Well, he had a nice encore against the Colts. The second-year back posted just three catches for 66 yards, but he scored two more touchdowns and had 21.6 points. He also had three more touches than Tony Pollard, so Spears has flex value. James Conner suffered a knee injury and didn’t return against the Panthers, so his status for Week 17 is in question. Benson was inactive in the contest due to an injured ankle, but he would be the next man up if Conner were out and Benson was able to return. If both are out in a worst-case scenario, fantasy managers should look to add veteran Michael Carter. McMillan, listed in the last two waiver wire articles, continued his recent hot streak with 57 yards, one touchdown and 16.7 points in a loss to the Cowboy
