Before you determine which players you should target on the Fantasy football waiver wire ahead of Week 16, you NEED to see what Scott Engel has to say.

Engel is an inaugural member of the Fantasy Sports Writers Association's Hall of Fame. He is a four-time FSWA Award Winner and nine-time finalist, and has pulled off a three-peat in his prestigious New York City Fantasy Football League that includes other experts and high-stakes players. If there's anyone who knows what it takes to win a league, it's him.

Engel made the playoffs in 14 of his 16 Fantasy Football leagues this season, with a winning record in all but one. He won seven of his nine first-round playoff matchups in Week 15. This season, he has recommended Justin Herbert, Cam Akers and Robert Tonyan in advance of them becoming popular Fantasy free agent additions.

Now, he's revealed the best widely available free agents ahead of Week 16. One player Engel is advising Fantasy players to target on the Week 16 waiver wire: Cleveland wide receiver Rashard Higgins. He has become more involved in the Cleveland passing game in recent weeks. Higgins gets a great matchup in Week 16 that makes him worthy of starting consideration for your Fantasy Super Bowl.

Engel is also all-in on another wide receiver with MASSIVE upside! This player is still widely available and could be a huge boost to your roster moving forward! Anyone who adds this player could hit it BIG. You ABSOLUTELY need to see who it is before making any Week 16 waiver wire claims.

Which players should you target on the Week 16 Fantasy football waiver wire? And which running back is a MUST-ADD? ... Join SportsLine right now to see the best league-winning free agents entering Week 16, all from a Fantasy Hall of Famer!
