Back and Better Than Ever!
Thought about bumping last year's thread, which you can find here if you so desire, but ultimately decided to start a new thread for the 2015 offseason. This is to call out guys that may be floating on wires due to lack of opportunity, injury, a drop-off in opportunity, blocked situation, etc. You can also call out guys that are staring a bigger opportunity in the face for 2015, but please keep in mind the idea is to ID guys found on most waiver wires at the moment, not buy lows necessarily.
As with all darts/fliers, there were a whole bunch of misses in last year's thread (including almost all of my offseason stashes - Hello, Dion Lewis!), but there were a fair share of hits too:
Please do not devolve this thread into commentary about how folks need to play in a deeper league if Player X is on their wire -- that's not the point.

As with all darts/fliers, there were a whole bunch of misses in last year's thread (including almost all of my offseason stashes - Hello, Dion Lewis!), but there were a fair share of hits too:
- CJ Anderson - for anyone that held on through the coaching machinations... rewarded quite handsomely for an offseason stash
- Charles Johnson - again, growing pains and may have been dropped, but flashing again now
- Stedman Bailey - would've picked up more steam had the suspension not been levied in the offseason, but again flashing
- Denard Robinson - looks like a potential feature back
- Latavius Murray - insert "what's wrong with the Oakland Raiders talent evaluators" comments here
- Ahmad Bradshaw - floated on a lot of wires due to ending the season on IR and some believing he was done
- Travis Kelce - also mentioned quite a few times; injured entire rookie season which allowed some to pluck him off the wire..
