We partnered with RotoBaller to give you accurate and timely Week 16 waiver wire adds, wide receivers and more. In turn, they post our podcast to their site (which is centered around setting your weekly lineups). Enjoy! This article originally appeared on RotoBaller, our new partner. Can you believe we’re on week 16 already? Time flies! With two weeks left in the NFL season there’s three reasons I can think of how this article can help you win your fantasy football league. 1. You’re still in the championship hunt 2. You’re trying to block a competitor from picking up one of these players 3. You’re looking for ‘cheap’ keeper/dynasty steals for next season This week I (Matt Hartman) will look at the best week 16 wide receiver waiver wire pickups and sleepers, based on their current ownership numbers and fantasy outlook for the season. I will also provide a bonus section in this article recommending a player not to target on waivers. Fantasy Football Wide Receivers (WR) – Week 16 Organized by priority Jarvis Landry (MIA) – Owned in 37% of Fleaflicker leagues Over the last 4 weeks Landry has been targeted 44 times with a 77% catch rate which has made him a PPR gold mine. During that time Landry has become Ryan Tannehill‘s favorite receiving target. If you are in a keeper or dynasty league Landry is a must add if you haven’t already got him. If you are in a PPR league and Landry is somehow available pick him immediately. In standard leagues Landry is a WR3/4 fringe player. Baller Move: Add in all PPR leagues, Add in 14+...

Atlanta Falcons (5-7) vs Pittsburgh Steelers (8-5) Play ‘Em If You Got ‘Em Matt Ryan– #5 Ranked QB Ryan has been as boring as vanilla ice cream till last week when the Falcons put up more of a game than anyone anticipated. They actually looked good and had some big plays, which is very encouraging for any Falcons player owner. Ryan, believe it or not, despite the vanilla flavoring, is the 8th highest scoring QB on the season…so you have to play him. The Steelers’ defense gives up the 8th most points to QBs so you can feel okay about it. Who knows…maybe he’’ll throw down some cookies and cream flavoring on you this week! Steven Jackson– #26 Ranked RB Jackson has actually been pretty consistent since week 8 and is a top 20 back this year…which means you need to play him. The whole offense is looking better which means he will have more chances in the red zone. He has scored 4 touchdowns in the last 6 weeks so the odds are in your favor. Julio Jones– #10 Ranked WR The Jonester is back! Goodness me he had an amazing game last week against the Packers! He was the top scoring receiver with 259 yards off 11 catches and 1 TD. He could not be stopped! Sadly he is out this week due to injury but hope you make it through this playoff game so that you can use him in your finals. Roddy White– #22 Ranked WR White paled in comparison to Julio Jones, but he still had a good game last week. Julio...

Pittsburgh Steelers (8-5) at Atlanta Falcons (5-7) Play ‘Em If You Got ‘Em Notable: Shaun Suisham- #12 Ranked K Le’Veon Bell– #1 Ranked RB Like every week you are playing this guy, no questions asked. Antonio Brown– #1 Ranked WR Yep, you’re playing this guy too. Done deal. Ben Roethlisberger– #10 Ranked QB You saw what Aaron Rodgers did with the Falcons last week, well Big Ben is capable of the same kind of magic and actually out scored Aaron Rogers last week. Big Ben is a must play especially since the Falcons are generous with points to QBs. Martavis Bryant– #38 Ranked WR You are a frustrating man, Mr. Bryant! Right when we thought, eh…I don’t know about this guy, you come out and BOOM! 109 yards off 4 catches and a TD. He is a big play kind of guy and that Falcons give up big plays. Could be another solid week for him. Stick to your more tried and true players before you play him, but if you are hurting a bit at receivers he’s a good play. Gut Calls Heath Miller– #13 Ranked TE It is not the best match up for him this week but in a slim position it makes sense to go with who is currently doing well and Heath Miller certainly is. In the last 3 weeks he has scored an average of 7.7 points. Not many other tight ends can boast such numbers. Bench Warmers...
