Week 7 IDP Waiver Wire: Pickups & Targets

Oct 14, 2025

Week 6 was wild, with lots of injuries and jobs lost and won, and it all impacts this week's waiver wire.

As we continue to navigate bye weeks, it's important to think through your use of the waiver wire. Dynasty leagues do not count. You guys are hardcore. Much respect. If you're in league with deep IDP rosters, you have to get creative. More shallow leagues, where viable starters are on the waiver wire? You can use the waiver wire as an extension of your bench and play matchups week to week. I always recommend being proactive on the waiver wire at the beginning of the season, and we're still well within that window.

My intention here is to cater to a wide variety of leagues every week. IDP leagues are like snowflakes, so if you have specific questions, jump into our subscriber Discord, find the IDP channel, and tag me with any questions you have.

Some of you play in leagues where all of these players are already owned, and some of you play in IDP leagues where only 3-4 players are rostered on each team, so the players listed below might not even be on your radar. Don't be afraid to reach out with specific questions.

We have a linebacker-heavy piece again this week, so let's jump in.

Week 7 IDP Waiver Wire

Defensive Line

Uchenna Nwosu - Seattle Seahawks

Whenever we've seen Uchenna Nwosu on the field for an extended period of time, he's produced. Unfortunately, injuries have held him back, but for now, he's healthy and producing. Nwosu led all Seahawks edge rushers in snap rate on Sunday and had a dominant performance, leading the league with nine pressures and a 28% pressure rate, which resulted in 1.5 sacks against Trevor Lawrence and the Jaguars. With a snap rate hovering around 70% and a solid Week 7 matchup against Houston, Nwosu is a solid addition right now.
