If you still have something to play for in week 14, congratulations!  Many season-long fantasy leagues are starting their playoffs this week while others are in the final week of the regular season.  If your team needs a boost in the playoffs or to get into the playoffs, check out my top ten pickups from the waiver wire week 14 on the following slides.

Injuries continue to be a major storyline for fantasy football owners as we head into week 14 of the NFL season. Even with no teams on bye weeks any more, it’s getting tricky to get a full team of good options due to what has become a war of attrition.

However, when some players go down others get a chance to step up and there have been some waiver wire pickups already this season.  I’ve done my best all year to help you find the top pickups each week. Every Tuesday on Fansided, I list my top 10 waiver wire pickups leading up to and throughout the season.

Before jumping into the top 10 to target on the waiver wire week 14, let me remind you of a couple guidelines. First, I only highlight players who are available in over 50% of ESPN leagues (ownership percentages as of Monday night included in parentheses). If there are players who are owned in more than 50% of leagues but somehow are still floating on the waiver wire in your league, you can reach out and ask me specific questions on Twitter @FansidedFantasy where I do my best to answer as many questions as I can before waiver deadlines which are usually late tonight. You can also check back for more coverage including some last minute sleepers throughout the rest of the week on our Fantasy Football hub.

Each week in my top ten waiver wire pickups, I include at least one quarterback, one running back, one wide receiver, one tight end, and one team defense in my list. That way whatever position you need help at, you can find my top option analyzed here on this list.

Whether your team is safely in the playoffs set up for a bye week, starting playoff action, fighting for one of the last few spots, or getting ready for a battle for the #1 pick in a consolation bracket, check out these players from the waiver wire week 14 who can be a big boost for your fantasy team.
