Best fantasy football waiver wire pickups for Week 2

With all but one game in the books for the first week of the 2021 season, it’s time to start looking ahead to Week 2, and more specifically, the waiver wire in fantasy football.

If you won your first game, great, there’s nothing like starting the season off on the right foot. If not, it’s far too early to panic. Just remember: the season is a marathon, not a sprint, and it’s how you finish, not how you start.
