Fantasy Football Sleepers/Creepers
Our thoughts on some possible undervalued and overvalued players...

Updated September 29, 2009  JunkyardJake.Com

Glen Coffee/Vernon Davis, RB/TE

It took a couple days to figure out what type of foot/ankle and/or strain/sprain it was that sent Frank Gore to the locker room on the first offensive snap of the game this past Sunday, but what we do know for almost certain, is that we probably won't be seeing Mr. Gore until after San Franciso's week six bye. This makes Glen Coffee a great pickup this week, especially against the clumsy Rams defense.

Vernon Davis, who just had a career game of seven catches for 96 yards and two TDs, is another interesting prospect who should see more chances with Frank Gore out. Provided that you are not holding a grudge because you had Davis on your team in any of the past three years, he is definitely worth picking up as well.

Mike Wallace, WR

Sorry 60 Minutes Mike Wallace, you are pretty cool, but Pittsburgh's rookie receiver is my new favorite Mike Wallace. Wallace can flat-out fly down the field, and unlike Limas Sweed, he also seems to hang onto the ball after Ben Roethlisberger hits him in the hands. There is a good chance that the rookie will assume the deep threat role that Nate Washington filled for the Steelers last year, so he should be worth stashing on your roster.

Jerome Harrison, RB

- It was against the tough Ravens defense, but he came through with 16 carries for 52 yards, also converting seven pass targets into five catches for 33 yards. Not a tremendous statistical day, but it's safe to say Harrison strengthened his claim to the Browns number two RB spot because James Davis did virtually nothing with his chances. Of course the Browns number two job is a rather lucrative position these days, since Jamal Lewis is likely to remain as reliable as your pothead friend when you ask him to pick you up at the airport.
