Week 9 Waiver Wire: Projecting Best Adds, Drops and Future Handcuffs

The past week of football was devastating due to injuries, but it is always about the next man up in the NFL. One player going down creates an opportunity for another to shine.

Le'Veon Bell is out for the season with a torn MCL, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter, as well as Steve Smith Sr., who suffered a torn Achilles. Matt Forte is also a question mark along with a number of other high-profile players.

While you shouldn't complain about how injuries to real players affect your fantasy team, the fact is there are always ways to work your way around any situation.
