Waiver Wire WRs (1 Viewer)

[Isotopes]

The availability of waiver wire wr's seems pretty slim. Those of us that missed out on Eddie Royal, or DeShaun Jackson, are finding it tough to pluck any value out of the free agent pool. I am trying to find some potential value at the wr position, and wanted some input on how much impact the following players could have;

Reggie Brown. The Eagles are putting up solid passing yards and plenty of points to go with it. McNabb seems healthy and has been a great value pick for anyone that drafted him. The rookie DeShaun Jackson looks to be the real deal and a playmaker in the offense. But, Reggie Brown is coming back into the lineup, and could be a good pick up for some fantasy teams.

Branch and Engram. The Hawks brought in Colbert and KRob, but both Branch and Engram are due back after the bye. I am thinking they could be a good pickup for a fantasy team, but can't decide which is the better target.

Any other candidates? How would you rank these three? My gut says Brown 1st, then either of the Hawk wrs.

In a PPR league, I'd rank them like this:1. Engram - should be back and healthy after the bye. Probably a top-20 WR once he is back.2. Brown - may play this week, but his role will be rather questionable once Curtis comes back. Curtis and Jackson will probably be the starters, and it looks like Curtis is recovering pretty quickly. Also, he isn't all that good.3. Branch - may be playing after the bye, but he's been out for a long time, and the knee injury will probably slow him down and affect his cutting. Unlikely that he'll be fully recovered until next year. He may get a decent number of targets due to the lack of other options on the team, but I don't see him breaking a lot of big plays.For the record, I drafted all three of these guys and they make up my entire WR bench at the moment.
