Week 8 waivers run Oct 27 – Nov 2, with most leagues processing Wednesday morning. Every name below comes off the live Draft Waiver board: value over replacement at the position, how soft the defense in front of them is, and how much offense they are attached to. Bids are a share of a full-season FAAB budget, so scale them to what you have left.

What matters most this week

- Will Shipley is the cheaper way in: same tier of usage at roughly 2% FAAB.
- On bye this week: HOU, NO, NYG, SF. Fill those holes before you chase upside.
- Roster space: Brock Purdy is the safest cut if you need a spot.
