Top Waiver Wire Pickups
Welcome to Waiver Wire Week 12. This week is straight-up crazy. I mean did you see that catch from Ceedee Lamb! Then Adam Thielen tried to match it with his own end zone grab. I love football and all its glory. Of course, we are now down to week 12 where playoff seeds come into focus. Some teams have already clinched the top seed.
