A high-flying weekend for fantasy football and Colt is here to break it all down. Some new names appear on this week's waiver wire episode of the Fantasy Index Podcast.

Dark times arrived for a trio of high-profile NFL franchises after Week 10, and Luke is here to detail the depths of the despair. He also talks about the surging Cardinals and Lions and looks ahead to some of Week 11's most tantalizing matchups, finishing up with a quick look at waiver wires in fantasy leagues for the week ahead.

With the NFL trade deadline upon us, Colt & Luke talk about a certain underperforming rookie wide receiver with a famous name that may be primed for a big finish in the weeks ahead. The boys also discuss trade strategy, injuries and league news before delving into this week's waiver wire crop, wrapping up with a more in-depth discussion of QB streaming options heading into Week 10.

With half of the 2024 campaign in the books, Colt and Luke run through who fantasy's top producers at each position have been after eight weeks and discuss a few guys who they think can keep it going down the stretch. The FI duo also discuss their favorite RB and WR trade targets as fantasy (and reality) trade deadlines approach, finishing up with the Week 9 waiver wire and some QB/DST streaming options.

Colt and Luke take on the tall task of helping you mitigate the season-ending injuries to Brandon Aiyuk and Chris Godwin, along with landing on some interesting tidbits regarding Keon Coleman's breakout performance in Week 7. Luke and Colt also talk about the QB situations in Cleveland and New York going forward, and Luke blindsides Colt with a bombshell fantasy drop that threatens the very fabric of the podcast.

In this week's episode, Colt and Luke talk about the breakout performances from Sean Tucker and Ray Davis, speculate on the backfields of the Giants and 49ers going forward, and strain to talk about waiver wire tight ends other than Noah Fant and Hunter Henry. Join us for this week's waiver wire rundown!

The boys tuck into an action-packed Week 5 of NFL action, discussing several of the week's most interesting fantasy storylines to go along with a fresh rash of injuries and waiver wire prospects. Colt also stumps Luke on an obscure Minnesota Viking running back who once tallied double-digit touchdowns 10 years ago...

Colt and Luke get together again to talk about the latest Monday night doubleheader, the latest injury to befall a budding Chiefs star, and a particularly appealing crop of waiver wire running backs in our Week 5 waiver wire episode.

Warning: Luke does not mince words about a certain underachieving Atlanta Falcon.

Just when we thought we were out... Colt and Luke talk about an assortment of Week 3 action, injuries, and the players that should be on your radar heading into waivers processing this week, including a call to all managers to scoop up any of the name brand players from the Carolina Panthers that may have been kicked loose in your leagues recently.

The game is on. With two weeks' worth of tape and numbers in the books we can now meaningfully play matchups and help you do the same. Colt and Luke make the cases for their favorite starts and sits in Week 3, including a few running backs from sputtering offenses they like to rebound.

Injuries have remade the fantasy landscape in the span of a single weekend of NFL action, and Colt and Luke are here to pick through the wreckage for survivors. If you liked Luke talking about Jordan Whittington previously, you may love Luke yelling about Jordan Whittington in this one. But will it be enough to convince a skeptical Colt? Hit play to find out!

Colt & Luke give their preferred players to plug into fantasy lineups, and which they're advising against heading into Week 2. They also talk about a few offenses that got off to slow starts, and Colt gives us a quick injury news rundown ahead of Thursday Night Football.

And already, the Super Bowl of waiver wire periods is upon us. Last year's opening salvo of waiver wire action gave us absolute gems in Puka Nacua and Kyler Williams. Can a pair of California running backs follow in their footsteps? How about a Baltimore tight end? Colt & Luke talk about the top waiver wire targets and play a game of 'Worry Meter' with Week 1's dud performances.

And suddenly, the wait is very nearly over. With the NFL season opener less than 24 hours away, Colt and Luke sit down to talk about some of the players they're leaning toward plugging into fantasy lineups, and a few they'd prefer to let sit this one out. The green flag has dropped and we are underway with our first starts & sits of 2024!

Need some cheap upside in your life? Want to try to find the next diamond in the fantasy rough? Want to hear Colt struggle to contain his disappointment when Luke brings up Rashod Bateman? Then you're in luck, because we've got all that and much more in our final preseason episode: Undrafted Gems.
