Devin Aromashodu, Arian Foster, and Deion Branch: Week 15 Waiver Wire Gold!

As we wind down the football season in Fantasy, it is almost trite to speak of waiver wire pickups—almost!

This week we find three VERY intriguing players that are available and ready to make that final impact on your team that could provide you the extra playoff push you’re looking for.

WR – Devin Aromashodu, Chicago Bears: Aromashodu torched the Packers’ vaunted defense for 76 yards and a single score—I say “torched” cause it’s very difficult for ANY rookie to do that to the Packers.

Cutler has been petitioning for Aromashodu all season long, and now that he is actually playing—thanks to Devin Hester’s injury—we can see why he asked so vehemently. Baltimore’s secondary is nowhere near as good as Green Bay’s so if he can do that to the Pack, just imagine what’s in store for Cutler’s new toy.

RB – Arian Foster, Houston Texans: Unless you live under a bridge, you have probably heard the news circulating around the youngster Foster that coach Kubiak has dedicated the remainder of the season to Foster.

Foster is a sizable back with great outside speed and reliable hands, and considering the Texans have had trouble all year at running back, the kid is not only sure to produce big time, he is also going to make sure he DOESN’T screw things up like his other running back counter parts.

He’s a solid pick up and play this week.

WR – Deion Branch, Seattle Seahawks: This guy just doesn’t seem to go away does he?

Branch will take over duties at starting receiver thanks to Nate Burleson’s ankle injury which appears to be pretty bad.

Branch is expected to miss two to six weeks, which means Branch is the number two guy for the remainder of the season. Branch has always been a solid producer in PPR leagues, and the Seahawks won’t abandon the usage of Burleson’s position, making Branch the most interesting Waiver Wire pickup this year.,

I would recommend picking him up as soon as possible if you are looking for a viable WR3—or even two if you’re in a pinch.
