Waiver WIRE: Malik Willis’ Dynasty Future—Can He Be A Starting QB In 2026?

Malik Willis headlines the waiver wire as fantasy managers scramble for championship lineups. Is the former Liberty quarterback primed for a breakout, or will his upside remain untapped in Dynasty formats given his uncertain future with the Packers and looming free agency? Marcus Mosher and Michael Fabiano debate Willis’ long-term potential, the impact on pass catchers like Christian Watson and Jayden Reed, and how teams like the Miami Dolphins might approach quarterback solutions in the upcoming offseason.

The spotlight shifts to emerging waiver targets, including Jacoby Brissett’s bridge role in Arizona, Rashid Shaheed and Adam Thielen’s desperate value at receiver, and bleak running back options such as Isaiah Pacheco and Keaton Mitchell. The discussion covers tight end stashes with Darren Waller’s resurgence and Brenton Strange’s Dynasty outlook, highlighting evolving team situations and critical start/sit decisions for Week 17. Will savvy pickups tilt fantasy championships?
