Week 14 Waiver Wire: Antonio Brown and Top WRs Available

It's time for the playoffs in the majority of fantasy football leagues, which means hitting the waiver wires is even more important. 

If you were lucky enough to make into the playoffs, picking up some extra talent for postseason play is always a smart move. Even if you don't play some of these guys and just use them as insurance, it's good to make additions, because it prevents your opponents from getting any better. 

With that said, here are the top wide receivers available for Week 14. 

Antonio Brown

The Pittsburgh Steelers have a number of weapons out wide, but Brown has been very consistent as of late. 

Brown has scored eight to 12 fantasy points for six straight weeks in standard leagues, which is great for a guy who, according to the depth chart, is Ben Roethlisberger's third, sometimes fourth, option. 

If you're in need of a starting wide receiver on your fantasy lineup, Brown is the best guy to go get right now. He's a harder to find in most leagues, but he is out there and needs to be on your roster. So do a quick search. You never know, he may just be a hidden gem that helps you win your league. 

Brown is only owned in 56 percent of ESPN leagues, which is something that should soon change. 

Demaryius Thomas 

The Denver Broncos don't air it out a ton because, let's face it, Tim Tebow isn't a complete quarterback. Sure, he may win, but his passing skills are lacking, which hurts his receivers in the fantasy world. 

Still, Tebow does do a good job with the deep ball, which means his wideouts are high-risk, high-reward guys. Thomas falls right into that category, and the past few weeks prove it. 

Last Sunday, Thomas caught four passes for 144 yards and two touchdowns. Prior to that game, he was barely targeted by Tebow, but that's mainly because the team doesn't throw that much. 

Thomas is worth the gamble, and since he stepped up when his team needed him the most, Tebow will start looking his way more. 

Be cautious with him, and make sure the matchup is great before you start him. However, pick him up if you have room to spare so your rivals don't get him.

He's only owned in less than two percent of ESPN leagues and just five percent of Yahoo! leagues. 

Malcom Floyd 

The San Diego Chargers looked great on Monday night, and the return of Floyd is definitely a reason why. Granted, they were just playing the Jacksonville Jaguars, but still, the Chargers offense needed a pick-me-up, and Monday was a great boost of confidence. 

Floyd caught four passes for 108 yards and a touchdown. He's subject to injury again, but he showed great signs last night that indicate he's worth the add, even if it is just to frustrate your opponents. 

A fantastic deep-ball threat, Floyd needs to at least be on your bench. He's owned in 57 percent of ESPN leagues and only 40 percent of Yahoo! leagues.

Other players to consider adding are Dexter McCluster of the Kansas City Chiefs—who can also play at running back in most leagues—Nate Burleson of the Detroit Lions and Riley Cooper of the Philadelphia Eagles.
