Hey!
I’m back to highlight the top waiver add at each position for Week 16. All of these players are still available in over 50% of leagues. Let’s get into it…
RB: Michael Carter - Arizona Cardinals
Arizona’s backfield shifted in a big way last week.
Bam Knight exited early with an ankle injury and Carter immediately stepped into a near every-down role the rest of the game.
While Emari Demercado mixed in, Carter was clearly trusted as the primary runner. If Knight misses time, Carter is positioned to lead this backfield in carries…
QB: Trevor Lawrence - Jacksonville Jaguars
Lawrence is playing the best football of his career right now.
He’s thrown multiple touchdowns in 4 straight games and continues to add value with his legs. Even with tougher matchups ahead, his current form makes him hard to ignore.
If you need a QB with real ceiling for the fantasy playoffs, Lawrence belongs at the top of your waiver list. He’s the QB3 in fantasy since Week 3, insane…
TE: Colby Parkinson - Los Angeles Rams
Parkinson’s role has quietly grown into fantasy-relevant.
The Rams have leaned heavily into heavy personnel packages, keeping Parkinson on the field for most early downs and near the goal line.
He’s now scored 4 TDs over the past 5 weeks. With Seattle allowing one of the highest fantasy point totals to TEs, Parkinson is a strong streaming option next week…
WR: Jayden Reed - Green Bay Packers
Christian Watson leaving early last week matters more than it seems.
Reed’s snap rate stayed steady, but historically his production spikes when Watson isn’t on the field.
He led Green Bay in receiving & remains a key part of the offense. With favorable matchups coming up, Reed is one of the best WR adds available right now…
That’s it for today. Add these players before your league-mates do and stay ahead of the chaos…
