Fantasy Football's Week 10 Waiver Wire

By Garth Gregor

Fantasy Football's Week 10 Waiver Wire pickups are here! The wire picks are players who are or were still available in most leagues this week. Depending on how your waiver wire/free agents’ pool works, players may not clear waivers until later this week. 

Instead, these players should be monitored or stashed away on your bench for bye weeks’ use or a future starting spot consideration or played in a bye week emergency.

QUARTERBACKS

Sage Rosenfels - with Schaub out for at least a month, Rosenfels has shown he can get the ball to Andre Johnson and Owens Daniels. He went 21 of 29 off the bench for two touchdowns and 224 yards against the Vikings. He also only coughed it up one time. He should by throwing it quite a bit against the Ravens this week, and Slaton will keep Baltimore honest. He is available in almost all leagues. 

Tyler Thigpen - I am not convinced he will have a third straight monster game but against the Chargers' pathetic pass defense, anything is possible. I expect the Chargers to get out ahead earlier, so that should lead to lots of pass attempts, but Romo and Campbell would have to be on my bench before starting him. Available in 95 percent of ESPN leagues.

Shaun Hill and Brady Quinn - Interesting to see how they fair this week, but unplayable in almost any situation until they prove themselves. Add them to your bench if you have the need and/or space as they are available in almost all leagues.

RUNNING BACKS.

Ray Rice - If he gets the start, I can certainly see starting him after his 154 rushing yards in Week Nine. With his chest injury, and McGahee's laundry list of injuries, Le'Ron McClain may be the more productive back against the Texans. Both players are available in about half of ESPN leagues, so keep an eye on the Baltimore backfield for updates. 

Jamaal Charles - Kolby Smith is out of the way, L.J. is still out, and Charles produced 100+ yards in Week Nine. He can catch out of the backfield and should produce a few points this week. Charles is still available in almost all leagues.

Cedric Benson - Bye Week 10 and available in most leagues, he went over 100 yards in Week Nine, with a touchdown. Feature back for the Bengals, and that production make him worth consideration for a bench spot now.

WIDE RECEIVERS

Shaun McDonald - 11 catches, one touchdown grab, and 133 yards total in his last two games.  He seems to have...
