Is there a little room for your fantasy team to sneak into the playoffs. If so, this is likely the last week to show your fantasy teams true value. What players could help out at the last second?

With two fantasy football regular season weeks left, the doors have all but shut on seventy percent of fantasy football teams. Most leagues only have four playoff spots. Just like the NFL the division spots are all but wrapped up most of the time a few weeks in advance of the closing out of the season. Still, there are always those cases of down to the wire battles and teams that have fought their way back into a miracle situation. The waiver wire can’t be any more important than right now if you’re in that category.

Playoffs? Playoffs? Is your fantasy football team as burnt as an overcooked steak? If you’re yelling that “playoffs” message to your other partners in fantasy football, than yes. With three to four regulars season games left in fantasy football, it’s all about how you drafted in August now. Unless your team is injured the waiver wire is not going to help you right now.

Stay away from the desperation trades. The panicking of teams trying to get into fantasy football playoffs is causing plenty of athletes to be dropped everyday on the waiver wire. We recently heard from a reader that they scooped up Larry Johnson last week on the waiver wire. The owner that dropped Johnson was either the worst team in the league or an owner overanalyzing their week to week match ups. Keep your poise and you’ll catch the right breaks to get your team in he playoffs.

Another star quarterback is out for the year. Not just an ordinary star. A quarterback many of you wasted a first round pick on. What can you do to scramble your season back together?

It’s crunch time. If you’re hovering around the .500 mark, it’s make or break. A nice winning streak now could catapult you to the playoffs. An average or slump will leave you questioning your managing skills all season long. If you need that extra boost to your team, here are some athletes to look at on the waiver wire.

Who has the scooper ready? It’s time to put it to work.

Deuce is out for the year, so common sense would be to scoop up Aaron Stecker or Antowain Smith. With the way the Saints have been playing, that may just be a wasted roster spot. Who else is worth considering this week?

The waiver wire is opening up for those in need. In fact it’s likely at one of its peak levels for snatching players. If you have one or two bench warmers that you wouldn’t even consider inserting, than maybe now is the time to get rid of them.

Start the sweepstakes of maneuvering in fantasy football leagues. Star players have yet to prove their worthiness of their draft status, and frustration is an understatement for fantasy owners. Riding afloat with unpredictability of teams is at its biggest hike in years. Figuring a new strategy until star players get into gear is going to be key in picking up some wins over the next few weeks. Trading apples for different apples is not the answer, but a boost or two from the waiver wire is.
