DeaLerZ 0 Posted October 24, 2005 Mark Brunell... if he's still on ur waiver wire.. your not playing fantasy football.... Marcus Robinson.. once Culpepper gets consistent so will he.. he's a redzone target and has been dropped in a lot of leagues... Bubba Franks.. if your weak at TE.. this is Farve's guy.. always good for atleast 40 yds and a score every 3 games or so... which more than enough for a competitive league with inconsistent TE's.. just came off an injury so alot of people won't notice him Kelly Hulcomb... if your in dire need of a back up QB.. this could be a solid pickup.. he has Moulds and Evans to throw too.. and so far.. he's been so good in a competitive league money league.. these are the guys that in the last week were available... none of them are available in my league now.. but just kind of giving anyone who missed the action... a heads up..

seadog54 20 Posted October 24, 2005 Not a long term thing, but Peyton is on a bye next week and i don't have a back-up. If you're like me and need a back-up...... Garcia vs. Chicago or Simms vs. N.O would be nice QB fillers for next week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

madd futher mucker 36 Posted October 24, 2005 Deeper leagues where there is not much out there: Frank Gore - if Barlow can't go, then he's a good play and just might take Barlow's starting job. Also with not many new players stepping up, this week might be a good time to pick up these injureds if available: Arnaz Battle - should be back on the field Edwards - too bad Cleveland has no QB though Engram - if you are willing to wait just a little more Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sameo98 0 Posted October 24, 2005 I picked up Chester Taylor today. Jamal Lewis isn't doing much of a good job at RB so far this year and was taken out of the game in the 4th Quarter in favor of Taylor. "Despite playing the NFL's toughest fantasy run defense, Chicago, Jamal Lewis' 15 carries for 34 yards should not be dismissed lightly. It's no secret that Chester Taylor has been gaining popularity in fantasy circles for continually outshining Lewis in a backup role. On Sunday, Taylor had just two carries, but he picked up a first down on his first carry by gaining 14 yards on a second-and-13 situation. And he added seven yards on a first-and-10 situation on the next drive. What's more interesting is that both of these carries came in the team's final two drives in the fourth quarter with Baltimore trailing 10-6. In the past, Lewis would have been called upon to grind out yards and move the team into the red zone. But this week, with the game on the line, he was on the sidelines." http://fantasysports.yahoo.com/analysis/ne...gue=fantasy/nfl Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MahSoonerz 0 Posted October 26, 2005 I dropped Battle this week to reclaim Marcus Robinson. I like Arnaz a lot but with Alex Smith throwing to him you can forget about it. It looks like the part of the season where you have to think a week or two ahead to get the good stuff. Garcia will get stuffed this week but should get better as he gets more receivers back and more PT. Billy Volek and Charlie Frye are also worth hanging on to if you have room for a couple weeks. I would add Chris Simms but I have never been a believer in him. I was amazed that Chester Taylor was available, so I'm spending $2 a week to flipflop him, at least until the trading deadline. Other than that any RB pickups this week past Tony Fisher would simply be playing injury roulette. Charles Rogers may be good for a couple weeks at least once he comes back from suspension. If Brandon Jones sits, both Roydell Williams and Cortney Roby are worth a look. Of the two I like Williams. If Calico is available he's probably worth a pickup. Back to the Lions, Scottie Vines has his opportunity to show what he's got. As a Panthers homer, I think Rod Gardner is about ready to step up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

1b4igo 0 Posted October 26, 2005 I'm a Cleveland homer, but check the QB stats agains them. they are miserable. Toomer is a good pick up, but if Chester Taylor is available, you have to go get him. Lewis might get benched, but even if he doesn't, he'll get hurt for a couple of games and Taylor has filled in and put up good numbers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

People in my league are so smart that they know Tony Fisher is not the answer to any RB woes. Tony Fisher was the 7th or 8th free agent taken this week in my league (by a 1-6 team that has real RB issues) Fisher is not the answer and I'll bet he is reduced back to a 3rd down RB as soon as the other guys learn the system and get more practice reps.....Fisher will get about 40 yards this week!

TD Ryan2 315 Posted October 26, 2005 Reggie Williams, WR JAX. - with Jurevicious and Harrison on a bye and Brandon Jones injured, I'm taking a flier on Reggie Willaims (@STL) for my #3WR. If you pick Reggie up now, you get two pretty nice matchups with STL this week and HOU next week. Certainly I'm not looking to use him long term but he may fill in nicely for byes/injuries and then serve as decent trade bait. ETA: also, factor in that Williams' last 4 weeks have been a bye, CIN, DEN, PIT... not exactly an easy schedule for fantasy owners to deal with. At this point, I'd expect that Reggie and JAX's "new passing offense" has been all but forgotten by the knee-jerk fantasy world. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I ended up dropping him for Curtis but now lost Ferguson who I picked up to replace Walker and Antonio Chatman was drafted so I am considering him again since their schedule is so easy here on out but then there is the Matt Jones factor and I wonder if he will be the one to break out.
