Week 6 Waiver Wire pickups (1 Viewer)

[Drink G2]

Taken in most if not all leagues I play in...but Deon Butler (and Golden Tate, less chance he is avaible though and I personally don't like him as much as butler).

Housh was the first to go, and now Branch, lots of good oppurtunity for someone to step up

 

[Drink G2]

Let me also throw in Devin Thomas who was claimed by Carolina.

Not exactly an ideal situation, but at least they will play him and we can see what he has. Who knows maybe him and Clausen grown old together.

 

[reprisal]

Steve Breaston - after being hurt for a couple of weeks , he has been dropped in a few leaguespick him up while on bye this weekafter he comes back and plays against seattle week 7 , everyone will want him

i almost agreed with you then i remembered kurt warner isn't there anymore. how was max hall this week?

Hall at least puts the ball in the correct area code... Not a strong arm, but looks much more accurate than DA...as if that would be difficult. I wish I would've bought AZ WRs last week...

Hall definitely helps Breaston's value I'd say

 

[Tacos al Carboner]

Nate Burleson (at least until his inevitable season-ending injury 3 weeks from now)Brandon Jackson (if he was dropped)

Agree with Burleson, especially if Calvin misses time.

Butler and Tate do have more of an opportunity - as does BMW - but that passing game doesn't seem like it will produce much in the way of fantasy stats.I think Carlson is the only guy I'd want there.

Other than the OP, I didnt see a lot of follow up posts on Anthony Armstrong.

Devin Thomas is gone. Wash has not shown much ability to run the football this year at all. And Armstrong seems like the type of guy who can benefit from busted plays and improvisation from McNabb. And it seems like he has a decent chance to pass 97 year old Galloway for true WR2 snaps.

I think there is some upside here and Im strongly considering putting in a claim for this guy. Doesnt work out in a few weeks well no harm no foul.

 

[Sir Psycho]

What about J Cribbs ?

If he play QB !

 

[Breesisdaman]

Miami DST if they face Flynn

Flynn isn't chump change.

So which WRs are you guys targeting in ppr?

Britt?

Armstrong?

James Jones?

Burleson?

Branch?

I've been debating this. I'm going after Britt and Burleson in that order. I think Burleson is the safest option, but Britt is the best playmaker. Britt is the most complete WR on his team and Vince really seems to like him. I think if Calvin is hurt for a while it might actually decrease Burleson's chances, but if Stafford and CJ are healthy Burleson should be a good WR3. Of those left I would go Armstrong, James Jones, and then Branch in that order.

I agree ... dropping VJ this week (had enough)

 

[top dog]

Roy Williams and Amendola are both available in 2 shallower leagues I am in.

Figure I will put a claim in on Williams. He seems to be solid so far this year.

 

[jsharlan]

Who would you guys rather roster in a non PPR deep roster league between Danny Woodhead and Anthony Armstrong? In my league Woodhead is eligible as a WR or RB. Im pretty weak at WR right now.

It's hard to say. If the Patriots keep using Danny Woodhead like a Kevin Faulk replacement, he could definitely be the guy. This could especially be the case with Moss out. Now, Anthony Armstrong is likely going to be more consistent if he replaces Joey Galloway. If you believe this, I'd say that AA is the pickup. If you think Galloway still has the #2 job, go with Woodhead.

I hear Anthony Armstrong started last weekend and played 68 snaps while Santana Moss played 72 snaps. Looks like Shanahan is going to a youth movement with Torain and now Armstrong.

Was 3rd in line and Britt and Burleson went 1 and 2. So I ended up grabbing Armstring this morning as FA. Hopefully last week's game was the start of something.The good news is I now have the #1 spot so I'm hoping someone makes an impatient drop on somebody in the next week or 2.

 

[redskins08]

I just prioritized Reggie Bush over Britt in a PPR league. Does this sound right? Couldn't believe someone dropped Reggie.

 

[howo5]

I'm curious about Reggie too as he's sitting on the waiver wire in 2 of my main leagues. With Pierre sounding pretty dinged up, any chance Reggie busts out into a RB1 play down the line?

 

[aggie_dave]

I think with the news of Finley being out 6-10 weeks this morning, James Jones takes a big jump in potential targets. The running game is awful, so they aren't going to throw less. This week might not be huge if Rodgers is out though.

La Canfora said this morning on NFL network that he still expects VJax to sign before 10/31

 

[jude]

amendola if he is somehow still there.

Somehow?? He had played 4 games and hadn't gone over 6.7 points in non PPR

then go get him. i play ppr only. With the progression of Bradford and Clayton down, some of us were out ahead of this situation. I wasn't.

Everyone doesn't play in PPR so your comment was not needed.HTH

he went for 100 yards this week and their top WR went down for the year. Stop being so obtuse. your useless comments are most definitely not needed.

Miami DST if they face Flynn

Flynn isn't chump change.

He's closer to chump change than to a legit starting QB. I would gladly run the Dolphins D against any 7th round QB who has been rotting on the bench.

All signs point to Rodgers starting so this isn't really relevant anyway.

Beofre they become the next big thing;

The Chiefs DEF.

Yep.... I actually picked them up cheap (blind bidding only, no waiver wire, in this league) for a minimum bid before the Indy game. The schedule after week 6 looks pretty good.
