Are you forgetting about Michael Vick? He was a decent pickup...There wasn't really one last year. I think Tolbert was the best pickup and he was OK but not the type that's going to change your season.
The Steelers normally stout run defense has been anything but so far this year.May I add Scott MAY have a good run, but CIN plays:'B-Deep said:Last time I played with Bernard he was the seer and breadcrumbed his N1 view so obviously that he was wolf meatI am sorry, but crapping your bed whilst the seer is not WW Player of the Year materialIt was Newton.Maybe Bernard Scott if he explodes over the next couple of weeks.Week 10: vs PittWeek 11: @ BaltWeek 13: @ Pitt

yeah it's a longshot but every time I see the kid with the ball he's been explosive. Gore said that he might not be able to play next week. I think if Gore is inactive for 3 weeks, Hunter will steal the job from Gore.'B-Deep said:Never knew Kendall's last name. Listen, I'd give it to Kendall based on his legendary status and dreamy pecs, but he has been MIA most of the season. I think he's a REAL longshot.I have a feeling it's Kendall Hunter but people are probably adding him this week.
add Jacob Tammee, and VJax because of his holdout.At one point last year I was starting Vick, Hillis, Steve Johnson, VJax, and Jacob Tammee and a few guys I drafted! I was one week too late with Lloyd. Went to the championship with a team of WW pickups! I don't see this years yet but that doesn't mean he hasn't already been picked up. I do think Nelson is this year's WR pickup in PPR formats.'display name said:VickHillisBrandon LloydSteve Johnsonetc'qimqam said:There wasn't really one last year.

I am not sure if Moore can keep this up when Jacoby Ford is healthy. Anyone think Ford is out of the starting gig because of his hamstring injury? Personally I think Ford will be back.WW player of the year is D. Moore. If you were lucky enough to be in a league where his owner dropped him for some insane reason, and you picked him up, congrats to you.The train has left the station, but you can still get onboard. Last year to land Vick, I traded away Santana Moss for Vick before it was certain he'd keep the starting job. If you are willing to part with a known commodity, you might be able to get him while there is still lingering doubt if he is another Frisman Jackson.

Moore has been working as the backup split end behind Heyward-Bey. Ford was the starting flanker. If Ford's healthy, my guess is he returns to the starting lineup. The only question I see there is whether the Raiders are smart enough to put Moore in the starting lineup over Heyward-Bey and leave him there.I am not sure if Moore can keep this up when Jacoby Ford is healthy.

The Kurt Warner year when Trent Green got hurt was a nice 1 too.I got very nice games out of Dan Thomas and R Gronkowski yesterday while tieing the 4 year old record for weekly points scored. Got both off waivers this year. If I had played Cam Newton, a FA pickup, I'd have set the record by a significant amount. Fred Davis and Denario Moore are looking strong on other teams.There are always good FA plays. RB is the most likely. But other spots as well.Mike Vick last year was a once-a-decade (or more) pickup. The guy led the #2QB in the league by 6 points per game.
The only Gronkowskis that should have been on waivers should have been Dan or Chris.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PmEqmgnAckkUm...I think not.no one will even be talking about D Moore in 2 weeks... he'll just be ANOTHER in a long line of fantasy irrelevant WR's in Oakland.
Warner went undrafted in many leagues a few years back when leinart was supposed to be the guy. Id say the year warner had was as big of an impact as Vick's. I know vick was on a superhuman pace which warner didnt match but the impact of both of them as a FA pickup is what im referring to.Mike Vick last year was a once-a-decade (or more) pickup. The guy led the #2QB in the league by 6 points per game.
You're right about Warner that year being strong. But he ranked somewhere around #3-#5 overall QB. Obviously huge if you needed a QB. But last year, Vick was #1 on a ppg basis by an obscene 6 ppg in my league. Thats about a 25% advantage over every other starter at that position. An enourmous advantage for anyone trotting him out there.Warner went undrafted in many leagues a few years back when leinart was supposed to be the guy.

10 teamer at work with a mix of strong players and guppies. I took Hernandez in the 11th and Gronk went undrafted. I picked up Gronk after week 1, dropping the Rams rookie TE who I drafted in the 16th to do so.The only Gronkowskis that should have been on waivers should have been Dan or Chris.![]()
That year I beat the Brady (50 Tds) - Moss (23 TDs) - Welker (200 receptions...or something ;ike that) owner Week 16. Warner was huge in playoffs for a lot of teams, in a Billy Volek kind of way.You're right about Warner that year being strong. But he ranked somewhere around #3-#5 overall QB.

You the same guy that predicted Detroit would win five games this year?It's possible both guys have talent, and not in a only so much pie gets sliced up way. We've definitely seen situations where two talented WRs are complimentary because you can't focus on just one of them.Moore has had two special weeks that seem to forecast good things to come; lot to like. But Jacoby has playmaking ability as well.Moore is the correct answer. Ford will never send him to the bench, Ford is a Ford, Moore is Vette
You may be right, but after reading you post over and over about his likely demise, I want nothing more than him to be the top WR in football this year.no one will even be talking about D Moore in 2 weeks... he'll just be ANOTHER in a long line of fantasy irrelevant WR's in Oakland.

Umm, in return yardage leagues, Ford is a beast. #6 overall WR last 8 games of 2010 in one of my leagues. Not too shabby on offense either. Can't way to see the double reverse with Ford and Moore, hope the opposing team has stain remover for their uniform bottoms.You the same guy that predicted Detroit would win five games this year?It's possible both guys have talent, and not in a only so much pie gets sliced up way.

Tell us all why he won’t have another rushing TD this year? Did you even see that run? It was all Moore’s open field running and especially the goal line ball control to stretch for the TD. He makes splash plays regularly like that. It’s also important to note that it put the Raiders up for good late in the game and killed the Jets momentum. You think the Raiders won’t go back to that bag of tricks with a playmaker like Moore? You must have some magic crystal ball to see these things. But more likely, you haven’t been watching Moore actually play. Why should we be impressed with a 4/34 receiving stat line? (you may ask) Consider that he caused 4 PI penalties on his opposing CB Cromartie. If Moore was not interfered with, he’d have had 8/100+ and a strong possibility of a TD or two. He’s gone against a couple of good CB’s, guys with big egos that tout themselves as “shutdown” corners in McKelvin and Cromartie, and basically dressed them down. Against McKelvin 5/146/1, (nuff said). And Cromartie basically #### his pants trying to cover him, so much so that he needed to interfere to stop him. Had he played it straight, he’d have been posterized for huge stats just like McKelvin, and he knew it. Cromartie had a historically bad day. Those 4 PI’s got in his head so much he later fumbled a key punt return. So if all you want to say about D. Moore’s 4/34 day was that it wasn’t impressive, it just shows that you read box scores and don’t actually watch the game. Going forward, I don’t expect many CB’s to draw multiple PI’s to stop Moore. Cro recognized that Moore was someone he couldn’t defend, so he cheated to save face. You could easily say Cro had a much worse day than McKelvin did trying to defend Moore. In real football terms, not fantasy terms. Going forward, as long as the DB’s play honest, Moore is going to own one DB after another after another. Don’t be expecting his stat line to be typically 4/34. Remember, most expected Moore to have an off day against Revis & Cro and the vaunted Jets defense. And he still had a good day.'thehornet said:moore 34 yards this week...is that supposed to be good? He won;t have another rushing td all year.

Cromartie had 4 pass interference calls against him, with I think at least a few on Moore. Might have been a bigger day if Cro learned to keep his hands to himself.He's rookie and he was playing against Cromartie & Revis'thehornet said:moore 34 yards this week...is that supposed to be good?

Thanks, i live in the bay area and the game was televised and i watched the entire thing. Why did you waste your breath typig all of this? i didn't say he stunk...I said he isnt the pickup of the year. And i'll rephrase, he most likely will not have another rushing td this year considering he is a wide reciver playing in a rotational receiver set.Tell us all why he won’t have another rushing TD this year?
