Even if the short-term outlooks of the options available to us on waivers continue to get less appealing, we still need to shoot for upside with our additions over the remainder of the season. Any fantasy manager who has been paying attention this season could have added players like Cedric Tillman, Josh Downs, and Tyrone Tracy for pennies on the dollar. Audric Estime may prove to be the latest player who could have been added to rosters for cheap based on his flashes of potential prior to his Week 10 emergence.
Yes, it can get tedious at times, but grinding the waiver wire for potential breakouts is one of the pillars of being a successful fantasy manager. Going back to waivers every week when others have grown tired of the process is an edge that could help bring home a championship this season, and in years to come.

Before we dive into the players, just a few reminders about how the article is set up:
- To be included as a potential add, a player must be rostered in 50% or less of ESPN or Yahoo leagues
- FAAB recommendations will be given, but also serve as tiers for leagues without FAAB budgets. The rationale behind FAAB recommendations is: If I had $1,000 in FAAB, what is the absolute most I’d be willing to spend on this player?
- All positional rankings and statistics are taken from RotoViz’s Monday Review tool
