Bess has emerged as the #2 option for the Dolphins
Every Tuesday we post our 1St Look Waivers. Our goal is to help you identify players who could be available on your league waiver wire
As always, if you have any questions regarding your team you should strongly consider taking advantage of our Season Pass. Our Ask a Question feature is one of the best Fantasy tools available. We are available 24/7 to bounce ideas off of and provide you with any support you may need. We put in the time because we know some of you can’t. It’s what we do, and we love doing it.
1) Mike Williams – SEA – WR
Williams followed up his 10 catch week 6 performance with another strong showing on Sunday. He has clearly emerged as the #1 receiving option for the Seahawks. He had a game high 16 targets and managed to catch 11 passes for 87 yards. That’s 21 catches over the last two weeks. He’s a must add in all PPR formats and three receiver leagues.
2) Davone Bess – MIA – WR
Bess continues to produce on a weekly basis and has emerged as the #2 option in the Dolphins passing attack. On Sunday he hauled in 6 passes for 65 yards with 1 TD. He makes a decent WR3 and a solid bye week fill in going forward.
3) Steve Johnson – BUF – WR
I haven’t mentioned Johnson in this spot before. I didn’t think he could produce on a consistent enough basis to be considered a weekly fantasy option. Oh was I wrong. On Sunday he was targeted 10 times, catching 8 passes for 158 yards with 1 Td. Consider Johnson a high upside WR3 option as long as Fitzpatrick is playing quarterback.
4) Danny Woodhead – NEP – RB
Woodhead continues to be a major contributor in the Patriots offense. The Pats couldn’t produce much offense against the Chargers but Woodhead still received 11 total touches. He ran 8 times for 24 yards and added 3 receptions for 28 yards. He makes a decent flex option in deeper leagues and PPR formats.
5) Nate Burleson – DET – WR
If healthy, Burleson will post decent and respectable numbers in the Lions offense. Stafford is set to return this week and the Lions could be a decent second half team if they’re able to stay healthy on offense. Burleson makes a sneaky WR3 option and solid bye week fill in.
6) Patrick Crayton – SDC – WR
Crayton has emerged as a viable fantasy option almost by default. As one of the only healthy wide outs on the Chargers Sunday, he caught 7 passes for 82 yards on a team high 12 targets.
7) Anthony Gonzalez – IND – WR
With Clark and Collie out, Gonzalez will finally get another opportunity to produce for the Colts. He has a good chance to receive enough targets to make him fantasy relevant once again. He’s a sneaky option in deeper leagues.
8) Anthony Armstrong – WAS – WR
Armstrong has solidified the #2 wide out spot for the Redskins. He’s McNabbs deep threat and has the chance to break a long one each week. He only had 2 receptions for 42 yards but that type of inconsistency comes with a player like Armstrong. He’s a hail mary option in deeper leagues during the bye weeks.
9) Lee Evans – BUF – WR
Lee Evans caught 6 passes for 105 yards with 3 Td’s. He received 10 targets and could become a viable fantasy option once again. I wouldn’t expect this type of production on a weekly basis but the Bills passing offense has looked very good under Fitzpatrick.
10) Owen Daniels – HOU – TE
Daniels is available in a ton of leagues. I know he has come along slowly, but he’s looked better and better with each passing week. If your hurting at tight end I recommend you take a flier on Daniels.
11) Jacob Tamme – IND – TE
Tamme should take over for Dallas Clark as the Colts tight end. Don’t expect Clarks production, but Peyton has turned Collie, Garcon and countless others into fantasy studs. He’s worth a look in deeper leagues.
12) Heath Miller – PIT – TE
Miller was a solid and productive TE1 with Roethlisberger under center last season. He won’t post ridiculous overall numbers but he should see 3-6 catches a week and some red zone looks. He’s worth a look in deeper leagues.
13) David Gettis – CAR – WR
Who is David Gettis? With Matt Moore under center the Panthers offense finally showed some signs of life. Gettis started opposite Steve Smith and hauled in 8 receptions for 125 yards with 2 TD’s. I don’t know what to expect, but that type of production can’t be ignored. Keep your eye on this kid.
14) Ryan Fitzpatrick – BUF – QB
If you own Romo or Favre, or your just hurting at quarterback, I would strongly recommend picking up Fitzpatrick. The Bills will always be playing from behind so you know their going to throw.
15) Matt Moore – CAR – QB
Moore was one of my pre-season Super Sleepers. He won’t be great but he could be consistent enough to get you through the bye weeks. He’s worth a look as a solid QB2 option in 12 team leagues.
16) James Starks – GRE – RB
Starks is an unknown rookie out of Buffalo who we absolutely love. When he is healthy he’s a beast. The problem is he is never healthy. It’s a long shot but monitor his situation closely over the next few weeks.
17) Jacoby Ford – OAK – WR
Ford might not be able to ride roller coasters (listed at 5’8) but he did play a significant role in the raiders offense. He’s worth keeping an eye on in deeper leagues.
18) Buster Davis – SDC – WR
Davis is another guy who’s worth watching. He played well on Sunday against the Patriots and could carve out a role for himself in this offense. He’s worth keeping an eye on.
