Building this list was a little tricky this week but I managed to find a few players worth picking up and list a few more that you can add to your watch list. Check them out.
May be available now…
Kyle Orton QB (CHI) - Don’t look now but Mr. Orton is starting to look like a fantasy QB. I recommended that you pick him you last week and I am doing it again this week. And after a 334 yard, 2 touchdown performance against Detroit I am doing it with a little more certainty. A great bye week spot start this week with Atlanta on the schedule.
UPDATE: Tim Hightower RB (ARI) - I know I have mentioned him before (who hasn’t right?). But I just want you to make sure he isn’t laying around in your league. It is too bad he isn’t getting all of the carries 7 for 37 yards and 2 TD’s. With his nose for the endzone (he has 5 td’s already this year) He could be a nice fill in during a bye week and a MUST have if Edge goes down.
Bobby Engram WR (SEA) - If you didn’t grab him last week and you are not too late, grab him now. The Seahawks only had 113 total passing yards, Engram had 61 of them on 8 catches. When the Seahawks get back to the west coast and get some better match-ups, todays performance indicates that Engram will be a solid starter week in and week out.
UPDATE: Brandon Stokley WR (DEN) - Looks like Eddie Royal may miss a few games with a sprained ankle. Not only that but Scheffler has a strained left groin. Both injuries should result in more targets for Stockley in Denvers High Powered offense.
Washington D - Last Week I said “They haven’t gotten the sacks but they held the Cowboys juggernaut in check for most of the game and collected a pick and fumble.They have Phili next week, then excellent match-ups against St. Louis, Cleveland and Detroit”
They only allowed Phili 17 points. Imagine what they could do to the three lesser offenses on the schedule. Great bye week replacement and possible automatic start over the next few weeks.
Keep an Eye on…
J.P. Losman QB (BUF) - Trent Edwards suffered a concussion in the Cardinals game but the Bills have a very timely bye this week. I doubt Edwards will miss the next game but ya never know.
Jeff Garcia QB (TB) -Brian Griese injured his shoulder and missed much of the game in Denver. If he isn’t able to go next week, Jeffy is back in the saddle.
