Waiver Wire Week 2

[DivineBovine]

Hey guys, any opinions on potential pickups?

 

Here's some guys that are available in my league that I'm thinking about:

 

RB's:

 

Brandon Jackson: Probably can't get him because Ryan Grant's injury is plastered all over the media as is everyone's recommendation to pick him up

 

Peyton Hillis: Looks like he started for Cleveland and had a fair game

 

 

WR's:

 

Danny Amendola: got a lot of looks from Bradford. Also, my league counts return yards

 

Legedu Naanee: Had a big game for SD. Vincent Jackson out of the picture

What position are you in on the waiver wire? Like you said, unless you are in the top 3 on the wire you probably aren't getting Jackson with all the attention he has gotten. Hills, Naanee, and Amendola all are solid pick ups for at least depth and for injuries/bye weeks. Are you deeper at RB or WR? I like Hills the most of those three, but since your league counts return yards and Bradford lacks any legit #1 receiver Amendola would be a good pick up as well. I think Naanee might have had a outlier week, he still has Gates to compete with for catches and Matthews/Sproles RB duo with both options in the passing game, also I think Maclom Floyd will emerge as their main WR target soon. Are either of the Mike WIlliams (TB or Sea) available in your league?

I'm number 5. I know I have no shot at Jackson. I do think Mike Williams is available in my league.

 

 

My RB's are Steven Jackson, LeSean McCoy and Ahmad Bradshaw. I have to play 2 + I have a WR/RB flex position. Correll Buckhalter is on my bench. I also have Tashard Choice, but I'm likely going to drop him this week.

 

My WR's are Marques Coulston and Hakim Nicks. Josh Cribbs and Jabar Gaffney on the bench.

 

I could use help in both positions.

I would drop Choice and Gaffney and pick up Hills and one of Williams/Amendola
