Now that the majority of Sunday's action is over, there are 2 players that immediately come to mind as waiver wire additions that could seriously propel fantasy teams in the 2nd half of the season.
I knew Ponder was better than McNabb, but I didn't expect him to have that heavy of an impact that quickly. Yes, his accuracy was a problem, but the talent is unquestionably It's pretty clear that the immediate benefactors of his success are the receivers, namely two in particular:
Visanthe Shiancoe (4/45/1, 8 targets)
Michael Jenkins (3/111/1, 8 targets)
Jenkins had most of his success on a 72 yard play, but Ponder was looking for both of these guys often. Shiancoe should be a serious add, since we already know he's capable of being a TE1 from two years ago. When you consider the remaining schedule for the Vikings, it's very generous in the passing department. Panthers next week, then they get the Packers, Raiders, and Falcons after the bye. Saints come to town in a critical week 15 matchup for fantasy purposes. I'll admit, I don't like to boldly make sleeper picks in the Shark Pool, but I have a very strong feeling about Shiancoe becoming a top ten TE down the stretch.
