The Panthers have played four straight close games, winning two, and quarterback Bryce Young appears to be getting better by the week. Even though Carolina was unable to finish off potential upsets of the Chiefs and Buccaneers the last two weeks, Young avoided interceptions in both games while averaging about 280 passing yards per game and scoring three touchdowns (one on the ground).

That two-game run has coincided with the return of Adam Thielen from IR. While the Panthers traded away multiple receivers before the deadline, they hung on to Thielen, and he's poised to make a big impact in Fantasy leagues down the stretch. On Sunday, Thielen led the Panthers in targets (10), receptions (8) and yards (99) while catching Young's only passing touchdown, posting big numbers even with three other players also seeing at least eight targets. One of those secondary targets was rookie Xavier Legette, who caught only four of his eight targets but continues to be involved on a weekly basis.

Both receivers along with Young feature in our Week 14 waiver wire priority chart below, with Thielen the best option to target at any position this week. You'll find top options at every position rostered in 60% of leagues on CBSSports.com or fewer. We'll start with a waiver priority chart that features my FAB bid projections for every player discussed in this waiver wire article before we dive into key players.
