Fantasy football playoffs are in full swing and the fantasy football waiver wire largely reflects numerous streaming options. However, there are a few players below that can contribute to your fantasy team or are worth adding so your opponents don’t add them and use them against you.

 

Last week’s deep sleepers who you can pick-up this week off the waiver wire: Darius Slayton and Adrian Peterson.

 

Don’t add a player to your fantasy football team if you don’t need one. “(S)” indicates a streaming option this week.

 

QUARTERBACKS

 

1          Ryan Tannehill, Titans

2          Baker Mayfield (S), Browns

3          Ryan Fitzpatrick (S), Dolphins

4          Derek Carr (S), Raiders

5          Jacoby Brissett, Colts

6          Gardner Minshew (S), Jaguars

RUNNING BACKS

 

1          Raheem Mostert, 49ers

2          Patrick Laird, Dolphins

3          Adrian Peterson, Redskins

4          DeAndre Washington, Raiders

5          Royce Freeman (S), Broncos

6          Tarik Cohen (S), Bears

 

Stunning Raheem Mostert is still available in almost half of the fantasy football leagues. He should be owned in all.

Darius Slayton was our deep sleeper at wide receiver and he paid off. Slayton is a must add in all leagues.

Lots of options this week on the waiver wire. Defenses referenced above each play teams that have either struggled this season, turn opver the football, or are having problems producing offense due to injuries, poor play, or starting a rookie quarterback.
