The excitement of Week 1 wears off in a hurry when you’re already looking at the waiver wire to find replacements for injured players. It’s part of the process, but not necessarily a fun one, especially this early in the season.
We’ve already seen Dez Bryant, Andre Ellington and T.Y. Hilton suffer injuries that will cost them multiple games. That means the waiver wire for Week 2 has already become very important and could greatly affect how the rest of your season turns out this year.
However, it’s not all about the injuries. Some strong performances from young players, specifically at the tight end position, have added to the depth or at least provided better options over fringe players who can now be benched or even cut.
Whether you’re coming off a sweet victory or a rough loss, working the waiver wire is important no matter how good or bad your team looks after the opening week. It’s time to take a position-by-position look at the best options to add and others you can drop heading into Week 2.
