Fantasy Focus: Mining the Waiver Wire: Kochetkov's Rising, First Liners, Buffalo's Crease & more

As the fantasy season rolls on, we begin to see who really has the juice. 

The hot starts have either faded away or held. Some bouncebacks are occurring. The numbers are levelling.

But, the streaks will remain. Especially short-term ones. And that’s where the waiver wire comes. Sniffing out that quick burst before it happens and having the guts to slide that player into your lineup is no easy feat. This week, we have a handful of teams with four-game schedules, and just as many options for under-the-radar pickups.

This week is especially funny because American Thanksgiving kicks off on Thursday. That means no games on tap for that.

This a reminder that the players featured in this piece are rostered in fewer than half of all Fantrax leagues… unless, of course, I feel like breaking that rule –
