10 Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Targets Heading Into Week 2

As humans, it often seems like we appreciate things more the longer we have been without them. That's why September is the best month of the year, hands down.

As a relatively large man located in the south, I look forward to September because there are only so many near-100 degree days I can take before I'm ready for the summer heat to break. Fortunately, the turn of the season brings with it the joy of football returning after what seems like an infinite hiatus.

And that sound you just heard was the collective sigh of relief of millions of football fans now that their beloved sport is back in their living rooms, appreciating what they now have after such a long drought.

But for the fantasy football enthusiasts among us, the work is just beginning.

Whether it be player injuries, tough upcoming matchups for our rostered players, or more clarity on the roles of sleepers we drafted in the preseason, we need to be scouring the waiver wire to exploit short- and/or long-term opportunities to obtain fantasy football victories by any means necessary.

So as we'll do each Monday morning during the football season on numberFire, let's take a look at some of the fantasy football waiver wire targets you need to be looking at heading into Week 2.

Happy September. Football is back!
