Week 14 Waiver Wire: Last-Minute Sleeper Pickups That Will Post Big Numbers

This is make-or-break time for most fantasy leagues. Most leagues have either started their playoffs or are in their last week, meaning the time for risk-taking is now. 

Luckily, there are a few players available who should post big numbers in Week 14. These players are must-adds for owners in need this week.

Chris Givens, WR, St. Louis Rams

Despite posting 90-plus yards in consecutive weeks, St. Louis Rams receiver Chris Givens has been picked up in just 15 percent of ESPN leagues. Odds are he's available in your league, meaning Danny Amendola's replacement is a worthy add.

There is reason to be even more excited than usual for Givens this week, as he and the Rams are taking on the Buffalo Bills. The Bills are horrendous on defense, giving up 28.1 points per week.

Touchdowns should be plentiful for the Rams in this game, and Givens should be a beneficiary of this offensive success. He should be able to rack up plenty of receptions, making him a stud in PPR leagues, and he's certainly a candidate to score a touchdown or two. 

Those looking for a spot-starter at wide receiver should give Givens a chance.

Josh Gordon, WR, Cleveland Browns

Despite receiving a significant amount of hype, Josh Gordon remains unowned in 63.3 percent of ESPN fantasy leagues.

The consensus on Gordon early in the season was that he was too inconsistent to start from week to week, but that view is outdated. Gordon has had at least four catches in his past three games, making the risk well worth the reward at this point.

Gordon can't be expected to go off for 116 yards and a touchdown every week, as he did last week against the Oakland Raiders. Still, owners can start to expect Gordon to produce solid numbers on a consistent basis, with occasional breakout games.

Alex Green, RB, Green Bay Packers

If you need a running back at this point in the season, your season is likely lost, as there really aren't any worth a definite add. Alex Green is the best of the bunch, though, and is worth an add for his upside.

Since James Starks' injury, Green has become entrenched as the starter in Green Bay. Though he has yet to rush for a touchdown in his career, he will certainly find opportunities in this offense.

Green is also a solid receiver out of the backfield, making him a worthy add in PPR leagues.

He won't be a superstar on your fantasy team, but for desperate owners, Green has the potential to save a season this week against the Lions.

Russell Wilson, QB, Seattle Seahawks

The past four weeks, Russell Wilson has posted fantasy totals of 20, 16, 19 and 26 points. With production like that, Wilson has become a legitimate starter at quarterback, and even a tough matchup with the Arizona Cardinals doesn't change that.

Wilson might just be matchup proof, as he's become a much more comfortable runner in recent weeks. Against the Chicago Bears, Wilson posted a career-high 71 yards, despite the Bears' stellar defense. As good as Arizona's defense is, Wilson is good enough to find holes in it.

Don't forget, this is the same defense that allowed over 400 yards to Ryan Tannehill. It has improved since then, but so has Wilson. Expect him to continue to find success in this game.
