QUARTERBACKS
Here is a list of players that may be available on your league’s waiver wire, in order of relative value:
Vince Young, Tony Romo, Jeff Garcia, Rex Grossman, Matt Leinart, Jason Campbell, J.P. Losman, Philip Rivers, Chad Pennington, Jay Cutler, Alex Smith, Tavaris Jackson, Tim Rattay, Derek Anderson, David Garrard
Rex Grossman, Matt Leinart, Tavaris Jackson and Alex Smith all have pretty good matchups if your desperate for a decent starter. If Vince Young, Tony Romo or Jeff Garcia is available, grab one of them first.
RUNNING BACKS
Ron Dayne, Cedric Houston, Mike Bell, Travis Henry, Sammy Morris, Vernand Morency
Ronnie Brown was cleared to practice today, so it might mean the end of the Sammy Morris run in Miami. Keep an eye on Brown’s status before using Morris in Week 16…Ron Dayne continued his impressive run with another nice game on Sunday. He’s got a great matchup with Indy next week, so he can be used in an emergency.
WIDE RECEIVERS
D.J. Hackett, Joe Jurevicius, Santonio Holmes, Ronald Curry, Reche Caldwell, Chris Henry, Antwaan Randle El, Devery Henderson, Arnaz Battle, Terrance Copper
With Darrell Jackson out with injury, D.J. Hackett had a huge first half last Thursday, and should continue to get a lot of work down the stretch…Joe Jurevicius doesn’t have a great matchup this week, but Derek Anderson has been targeting him regularly, so he can bee used in a pinch.
TIGHT ENDS
Desmond Clark, Vernon Davis, Jeremy Stevens, Tony Scheffler, Bo Scaife
Desmond Clark shouldn’t be on your league’s waiver wire, but if he is, he’s a good option at TE in Week 16 given his recent performance and his favorable matchup against the Lions…Vernon Davis continues to be a big part of the 49er offense and is a good option if your searching for a fill in at TE.
