Every week, I highlight a few players that you should target in waivers. I use the ESPN league data when filtering players, so the only players eligible for discussion here are those that are available on the waiver wire in at least 50% of ESPN’s leagues. I’ll list each player’s percentage-owned after their name so you have an idea of how available they are in leagues around the country. I’ll always try to mention a few players that are available in 90% of leagues for those of you in 12-team leagues or leagues with big rosters. I’ll rank them in the order I’d pick them up in a league with a high-performance, PPR scoring system.

Please note that these rankings are for total value through the end of the year. Players with particularly good matchups this week are in bold.

Shaun Hill (8.9)
With Frank Gore out, Hill is becoming more of a factor in the SF offense, and he’s taking advantage of a pretty easy schedule.
Mark Sanchez (51.7)
Jason Campbell (32.4)
He can be started when he has a good matchup, and this makes him a good guy to have as part of a committee.
Derek Anderson (0.8)
Anderson makes the Browns a threat again.
Jake Delhomme (16.8)
Matthew Stafford (6.9)
Kerry Collins (11.0)
Josh Johnson (1.2)
Chad Henne (0.8)
Kyle Boller (0.4)

Glen Coffee (57.5)
Not quite available in 50% of ESPN leagues, but since it’s close, I’ll list him here. He’s the workhorse back in SF with Gore sidelined for another 1-2 weeks.
Rashard Mendenhall (37.3)
Willie Parker thinks he’ll play next week, but turf toes are notoriously fickle injuries and Mendenhall looked great against the Chargers.
Tashard Choice (41.3)
Marion Barber only had one carry in the second half, but it looks like he will play against KC next week. Still, expect Choice to get plenty of work against a suspect Chiefs defense.
Jerome Harrison (1.9)
Harrison is the man with Jamal Lewis out. He’s a fine RB2 play in PPR leagues since he’s so active in the Browns’ passing game. And since Lewis is old and has a hamstring injury, he might be the guy on the list with the most long-term value (this season).
Justin Fargas (2.3)
With Darren McFadden sidelined 2-4 weeks, Fargas could see a majority of the work in the Oakland backfield. He touched the ball 11 times compared to Michael Bush’s four.
Michael Bush (31.9)
Bush will fight with Fargas for touches.

Mike Sims-Walker (38.4)
Sims-Walker should be owned in all leagues. The guy is a stud in the making and Garrard loves him.
Nate Washington (13.8)
Three TD in the last three weeks is nothing to sneeze at, folks. The Titans have to throw the ball now that their defense can’t stop the pass. My biggest corncern with Washington is that Vince Young takes over. If Kerry Collins can’t right the ship, Washington’s stock might take a hit with Young under center.
Donnie Avery (59.6)
Like it or not, he’s the Rams’ WR1 now with Laurent Robinson sidelined.
Sidney Rice (5.8)
Back to back good games for Rice, who seems to be gaining the confidence of Brett Favre. Still, it would seem his upside is limited given the presence of Bernard Berrian and Percy Harvin and the fact that the Vikings are still a run-oriented team.
Kenny Britt (9.2)
Mohamed Massaquoi (0.2)
Massaquoi was targeted 13 times and posted a very nice 8-148 day against a pretty good Bengals defense. With Braylon Edwards’ struggles, could the rookie emerge as the Brown’s WR1?
Pierre Garcon (37.5)
Johnny Knox (55.3)
Josh Morgan (59.3)
Nate Burleson (41.9)
After a nice run, Burleson took a back seat to T.J. Houshmanzadeh and Deion Branch in Week 4.
Austin Collie (0.6)
After a rough, one-catch outing in Week 2, Collie has nine catches over the last two weeks.
Louis Murphy (7.2)
Hakeem Nicks (8.1)
Kelly Washington (1.9)
Mark Clayton (14.6)
Muhsin Muhammad (28.6)
Earl Bennett (19.1)

Brent Celek is still available in approximately 44% of ESPN leagues. How is this possible? He’s the 4th-best fantasy TE in the league. Pick him up! I know he’s not a big name, but I’d start Tom Selleck if he’s going to post TE4 numbers.

Vernon Davis (41.0)
10-139-2 over the last two weeks — has Davis finally arrived?
Heath Miller (17.5)
Todd Heap (42.8)
Jermichael Finley (4.4)
After being shut out against the Rams, Finley bounced back in a big way against the Vikings, posting a nice 6-128-1 line. He’ll post bigger numbers when the Packers are forced to pass. (He’s on bye this week, however.)
Visanthe Shiancoe (39.6)
Marcedes Lewis (4.8)
In PPR leagues, Lewis has scored 15+ in two of the last three weeks.
Dante Rosario (0.5)
Brandon Pettigrew (7.3)
The rookie has 10 catches over the last three weeks and the Lions will have to throw a lot this season.
Bo Scaife (8.3)
