Week 5
Fantasy Waiver Wire - Free Agent
QB's To Consider For Week 5 |
|
Player
- Position |
Team/Position/Why
Pick Him Up? |
Trent
Green |
Dolphins -
QB Trent
Green's passing yards increased
for the third straight game (219,
287, 318). |
Chad
Pennington |
Jets -
Pennington's streak of eight straight games with a touchdown pass is the longest in the NFL. |
Brian
Griese |
Bears -
Sounds like Lovey could be leaning
towards putting the veteran in finally.
Stay tuned to Wednesday's practice
in Chi-Town. |

Week 5 Fantasy
Waiver Wire - Free Agent RB's To
Consider For Week 5 |
|
Player
- Position |
Team/Position/Why
Pick Him Up? |
Ron
Dayne |
Texans -
If Green can't go in Week 5 it looks
like Dayne could get the start for
the Texans. He'd have to return from
his bruised ribs to join Samkon
Gado in backing Green up. |
Brian
Leonard |
Rams -
With the injury to Stephen Jackson
Rookie Brian
Leonard, a second-round pick
out of Rutgers, will start in Jackson's
place against the Cowboys. |
Kenny
Watson |
Bengals -
Keep an eye on the injury situation
in Cincinnati this week. Rudi got
dinged up vs the Seahawks and didn't
finish the game. Watson could go
in Week 5. |
Aaron
Stecker |
Saints -
Deuce is out for the year in New Orleans...(again.
Bush, who scored a pair of short
rushing touchdowns Monday, likely
will be backed up by Aaron
Stecker, who has 27 yards on
five carries this season. |
Ernest
Graham |
Bucs -
If the Cadillac has to be parked
in the garage this week Earnest
Graham and Michael
Pittman will figure as tailbacks
|
|
Week 5 Fantasy
Waiver Wire - Free Agent WR's To
Consider For Week 5 |
|
Player
- Position |
Team/Position/Why
Pick Him Up? |
Kevin
Curtis |
Eagles -
I don't think I need to explain
why he's in this space. I'm also
wondering why he's even a free
agent in most leagues. He can flat
out get it done. Ok it was the
Lions, but still. |
Greg
Jennings |
Packers -
WR Greg Jennings made his first appearance of the season after missing the first two contests with a hamstring injury. He finished with four catches for 82 yards |
Dwayne
Bowe |
Chiefs -
Huard is finally finding some WR's
with some consistency. To bad it
was against the Vikings. Everyone
throws up yardage on the Vikings. |
Marty
Booker |
Dolphins -
Marty Booker was looked to more
than he has been in the past few
games. Booker
was targeted 9 times, making 5
catches. Look for the trend to
continue. |

Week 5 Fantasy
Waiver Wire - Free Agent TE's To
Consider For Week 5 |
|
Player
- Position |
Team/Position/Why
Pick Him Up? |
Jeff
King |
Panthers -
Had a great game against the Falcons,
but I'm not completly sold on him
just yet. Won't hurt to add him
to your bench though. |
Donald
Lee |
Packers -
Favre is looking his way in the
red zone. The Packers don't run
in the endzone. Enough said? |

Jets
DST |
Jets
Defense -
Nice Week 5 bye-week replacment
as they play the Buffalo Bills,
who haven't seen the Bills offense
yet this year, let me tell you
this. They Suck! |
