Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Targets for Week 2

This week’s fantasy football waiver wire analysis identifies several players to target as potential pickups. Analysts have ranked these players based on their early-week roster percentages, focusing on those below 50%.

Kaelon Black is expected to be a popular choice after his performance in the 49ers' recent victory over the Rams, where he played over 43% of the offensive snaps. He recorded 65 rushing yards and one reception. Meanwhile, Devaughn Vele's strong showing in the Saints' overtime loss to the Lions has made him a notable option, as he played a significant number of snaps and is likely to see continued usage.

Quarterback Tyler Shough had a standout game, throwing for 410 yards and three touchdowns, making him a viable option for those needing quarterback support. Bryce Young also impressed with his performance, completing 23 passes for 361 yards and three touchdowns. For tight ends, Dalton Schultz is recommended for his favorable matchup against the Bengals, who struggled against tight ends last season.
