Week 5 Waiver Wire Gems (1 Viewer)

The Ref

Footballguy
Another week with teams with byes opens up a lot of holes in rosters this week. Who is out there that can help.

Obvious choice here has to be Earnest Graham.

Anyone else?

 
I'd imagine Pittman will be at the top of most WW lists this week since he's apparently going to be the starter. Depending on the injuries to Addai and Henry, maybe Keith and Young as well. Andre Davis for sure if he wasn't picked up last week. Donald Lee is emerging as a TE option in larger leagues.

 
I doubt Justin Fargas is rostered in any redraft leagues.
yea, in 12 team leagues the likes of cpepp, pittman and graham are usually gone. Fargas should be available on everyones WW though....not sure if he makes an impact with Rhodes coming in though
 
I like Selvin Young, NYG DEF, Culpepper, Fargas, Pittman, Syd Rice as possibilities. Our WW is thin in our 12-team, 17-man roster league...not much out there these days.

ARI Defense looks like a good pickup as a bye-week replacement.

Keith and Young are both available in my league... wonder when we will have a clearer picture on their prospects of playing this week?

Andre Davis - in two weeks being a starter he has 4/70 and 5/117/1TD. Schaub has proven himself capable and the team is still competing despite injuries. I like the Miami matchup, with HOU's banged up running game, this week.

 
The name Justin Fargas has come up so many times over the past couple years and has never been worth it. TD only leagues I like Graham, as I don't think he or Pittman will separate themselves overall statwise to justify grabbing one over the other in regular leagues.

Sidney Rice and Kenton Keith looked pretty good.

You wont know until Fri/Sat, even if the coaches/trainers knew today, they wont release that info, unless its obvious. MCL/ACL tear that sorte of thing
 
I don't know if he is a "gem" but I am picking up Morten Andersen in my 16 team league. My only kicker right now is Joe Nedney.

 
Ike Hilliard? :thumbup:

yes its come to this. is he the WR2 in Tampa? i know the value is limited, but looks like his YPC is 16.4, he had a good week last week, and they could be playing from behind this week.

Cant believe im trying to make a case for Ike Hiliard.

Also, is Aaron Moorehead worth anything to us Marvin owners?

 
IF LJ is coming around and Bowe is real, Damon could have some value if you got Delhomme/Bulger/McNabb types

Maybe, but a lot of these names mentioned have been picked up already. Fargas is actually on everyone's WW, and he just ran for 170 yards. That's worth looking into, IMO.

with oakland on a bye this week (additional time for Jordan to heal) and Rhodes coming in following, I'm afraid he's worthless unless LJ suffers a serious injury.FWIW, Fargas is my favorite RB on the roster.
 
Im picking up Keith, I dont think Addai will play
Why? Addai could have finished the game last week. Of the injured Colts, I think he's the most likely to play. (Addai, then maybe Harrison, then Sanders, then Utecht - from most likely to least likely to play on Sunday).
