Week 10 Start Em Sit Em: Josh Cribbs and More Sleeper WRs Worth Starting

Finding sleepers on the waiver wire gets increasingly difficult with each passing week as teams begin to gear up for the playoffs. There are still a couple gems to be found, though.

For example, here are three wide receivers that are worth picking up and starting in Week 10.

Josh Cribbs – Cleveland Browns

Cribbs has traditionally only held value in leagues that award points for return yards. Over the last couple weeks, though, he's become more involved in Cleveland's offense and has warrants some consideration against a weak St. Louis Rams secondary.

The Kent State product has scored 22 points over the past two weeks and should continue to see his touches increase, since the Browns' offensive attack lacks big-play weapons. The Rams have allowed an opposing WR to score a touchdown in every game and that could be Cribbs in Week 10.

Steve Breaston – Kansas City Chiefs

Breaston continues to see more targets even though Jon Baldwin has returned from injury, which should bode well for his fantasy value moving forward. He's clearly built a strong rapport with Matt Cassell, with 38 points over the last four games.

His strong run should continue against the Denver Broncos, who rank 30th against wide receivers and don't have enough depth to stay with Breaston, Baldwin and Dwayne Bowe. And he'll also maintain solid flex value until season's end, so it's a win-win addition.

Jabar Gaffney – Washington Redskins

Gaffney has fooled fantasy owners, including myself, in the past with strong stretches followed by invisibility. However, the situation is different in Washington without Santana Moss, so don't shy away from him.

As shocking as it sounds, he's the best option John Beck has right now and should continue to see a bunch of passes thrown way when Washington is playing from behind. The Miami Dolphins secondary is a mess, so Gaffney should reach double-digit points again in Week 10.
