Week 16 Waiver Wire pickups (1 Viewer)

[JHuber77]

I'll start with Dominic Rhodes

 

[TheSpecialOne]

Don't overestimate that the reason why Rhodes was active and not L Jordan is because the Raiders were facing the Colts, Rhodes old team.

If Fargas is out there is a possibility that Jordan might be the starter and not Rhodes.

If anyone has anything from Kiffin or someone else please post.

Gonzalez shouldn't be on the waiver wire unless you have a 6 team league or so

if you're desperate, grab patten

 

[The Man with the Plan]

Darren Sproles looked good today. There was some concern that LT might have been injured and Michael Turner actually was injured against the Lions yesterday. If the impossible happens and both LT and MT are hurt you could do alot worse than Darren Sproles against a bad Broncos run defense.

Concern or speculation that LT was injured?

A little bit of both.Here's a link talking about yesterday's game. It was mentioned about him possibly hurting his hamstring but LT says he could have played in the second half if necessary. No reason to doubt him though. Here's what it said exactly about LT:

Tomlinson said he felt his hamstring grab on a 49-yard run just before halftime but could have played in the second half in needed.

He's probably fine. We'll have to see about Michael Turner.

There is always one clown that has to chirp in with a comment like that. If you have nothing valuable to add to the thread then keep it to yourself. Get some new material. With this being the playoffs most teams that have been ruled out of the playoffs are not picking up players. He could very well be available in redraft leagues. This is also the first time he has put together two good games in a row.

Nothing valuable to the thread? I started the thread if you didn't notice. I am under the assumption that Gonzalez was snagged a couple of weeks ago (just like Gaffney). Sounds like someone is pretty bitter.

I normally agree, but their is no reason for him to be available in leagues where you can pick up players.

Why start a thread asking for info then make fun of the guy? Gonzalez was only picked up in my 12 team league last week. Gaffney is still a FA. This league is a competitive league and has been around for ten years. WW costs us money so if you are not in the playoffs and they are going to be a WR3 or WR4 then why bother picking someone up? My point is that every league is different. I don't see why every WW thread has to have that same comment.

Dominic Rhodes has been rostered in my league all year but I didn't make any ####ty comments about your original post.

Reggie Bush

-

Stop laughing.........he may play this week and a loyal Bush owner (me) dropped him last week. He certainly could be available. Eagles DEF looks pretty solid though. And yeah, I'm in the big one so sticking with Stecker at the flex does concern me.

i think it is just a smokescreen by the saints. no way he plays, imo.

I don't think he will either, but it beats having a 4th WR that you'll never start. No need for depth this time of year.

 

[knuckles69]

If you are desperate for a TE or a Shockey owner Kevin Boss could be a decent option.

Instead of assuming why don't we just discuss the merits of picking him up. In the software of many leagues, you can see what percentage of leagues a player is owned in. For example, Gonzalez is owned in 44% of Fanball leagues. Except for the superstuds that are presently healthy, we can easily see under such a feature that many good players on on the WW of many leagues. It's silly to think they are available only in small leagues.That said, Gonzalez is as good as any to stash away, particularly in keeper or dynasty leagues, where some owners are not forward thinking enough to think beyond this season.

This happened in my league. I wasn't looking for this and I missed the opportunity to pick him up in my keeper league. Don't let it happen to you.

 

[BusMan]

Trying to scoop up Ron Dayne after dropping him when I got trigger happy before the inactives came out before the Thursday night game.

Also going after the Cardinals defense against Atlanta.

I guess the other 56% of leagues are six man leagues.

Another question is, do you pick up Sproels and play both him & LT against Denver?

I am putting in for Zona D as well. Since I am the only playoff team left with any WW bidding money left this should be a piece of cake.

 

[ckalltheway]

It depends on your league and how many people are left and such. I'm in a 14 team PPR and picked up AGon last week and played him. Depends on roster size too. We also only have 17 man rosters, you have to start 3dflex and you can only have max 5 RBs and 5 WRs
