Another week, another slate of wild scores, devastating injuries, and unsung fantasy heroes. With three weeks in the books, 2015 is shaping up to be one of the most unpredictable fantasy football seasons ever.
As whacky as this season has been, chances are that nearly all fantasy squads have been hit with a big injury, disappointing early-round draft selection, or an unlucky break that finds them in need of some roster help.
The best way to get that assistance is by attacking your league’s waiver wire. Even if your team is undefeated, a good way to keep the wins coming is to add roster reinforcements. Here are some players to keep in mind when scouring the waiver wire this week.
Quarterbacks
Andy Dalton, Bengals (ESPN 39% owned; 20% FAAB) – You might have missed out on acquiring Tyrod Taylor last week, but it’s not too late to nab a top-5 fantasy signal-caller. Dalton is tied for tops in the NFL with nine touchdowns, while ranking as PFF’s No. 6 quarterback through three weeks. The schedule also sets up favorably for Dalton to remain a QB1 throughout the season. If you’ve been hit by injuries to premiere quarterbacks like Drew Brees, Tony Romo, or Ben Roethlisberger, aggressively bidding on Dalton could save your season.
