Week 9 waivers run Nov 3 – Nov 9, 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.
