Waiver Wire Adds for Week 15
If you’ve made your fantasy football playoffs, congratulations. Now it’s time to ensure your roster is as tight as possible. While your trade deadline has most likely passed, waiver wires are still available. Here is your guide for who are the MAJOR Waiver Wire Adds in Week 15. For a more comprehensive list, check out my waiver wire rankings here.
QBs
Brock Purdy (San Francisco 49ers)
There is only one QB in the @NFL with 400 Pass Yards and 3 Pass TD* in their first career start

MIKE WHITE

Consensus Rostership: 8.2%, Week 15 Matchup: Seattle Seahawks
- Mr. Irrelevant has put up two solid wins against Miami and Tampa Bay, both respectable teams. Given the primetime spotlight on Thursday, he may do the same against divisional rival Seattle Seahawks
Mike White (New York Jets)
Consensus Rostership: 17.7%, Week 15 Matchup: Detroit Lions
- White was taking HITS against the Bills on Sunday but still found ways to get back into the game. This is a tough player who could find success in fantasy.
Ryan Tannehill (Tennessee Titans)
Consensus Rostership: 23.6%, Week 15 Matchup: Los Angeles Chargers
- Easily the safest option on the waiver wire. The fantasy playoffs are definitely the best time to be picking safe options.
RBs
Tyler Allgeier (Atlanta Falcons)

Consensus Rostership: 36.8%, Week 15 Matchup: New Orleans Saints
- While it isn’t producing much in fantasy football, Allgeier is still mirroring Cordarrelle Patterson’s workload. It’s only a matter of time before the rookie takes over this backfield from the 31-year-old.
Gus Edwards (Baltimore Ravens)
Consensus Rostership: 43.4%, Week 15 Matchup: Cleveland Browns
- Despite Dobbins’ great game, Edwards still saw 13 carries. He could be a great handcuff to an injury-prone JK Dobbins.
Damien Harris (New England Patriots)
Consensus Rostership: 53.7%, Week 15 Matchup: Las Vegas Patriots
- Stevenson went down with an injury against the Cardinals on Monday. Harris might be retaking his RB1 role sooner than we thought.
WRs
Jameson Williams (Detroit Lions)
Consensus Rostership: 31.6%, Week 15 Matchup: New York Jets
- Despite only having one solid play, Williams got some crazy separation against his defender. The Lions are turning all of their receivers into fantasy-relevant players.
DJ Chark (Detroit Lions)
Consensus Rostership: 31.3%, Week 15 Matchup: New York Jets
- If you can’t get Williams, get Chark. He was a WR1 not that many years ago. And now that he is the WR3 for Detroit, he has crazy underrated value.
TEs
Daniel Bellinger (New York Giants)
Consensus Rostership 9.9%, Week 15 Matchup: Washington Commanders
- 8 targets in his first two games back from injury. Bellinger has solidified himself as the TE1 for the Giants. Could be in line for solid production later in the season.
Tyler Conklin (New York Jets)
Consensus Rostership: 32.6%, Week 15 Matchup: Detroit Lions
- 7 targets and 8 targets in each of Conklin’s last two games. While only being the 3rd or 4th best passing option, Conklin still has value at a very thin TE position in fantasy
D/STs
Denver Broncos
Consensus Rostership: 26.3%, Week 15 Matchup: Arizona Cardinals
- A lot of people dropped the Broncos’ defense because of the Chiefs, and rightfully so. Now take advantage of this and play them against the Cardinals, who just lost Kyler Murray for most likely the season.
New York Jets
Consensus Rostership: 19.6%, Week 15 Matchup: Detroit Lions
- If the Jets can hold the Bills to 20 points, they should be fine against the Lions.
Minnesota Vikings
Consensus Rostership: 23.2%, Week 15 Matchup: Indianapolis Colts
- The Colts just don’t look all that good. Minnesota might be able to exploit them.
