There are no must haves this week, but these guys might be able to help you in the right spot. Hopefully you don’t need any of these dudes since your team is stacked and one win away from greatness!
Rashad Jennings: MJD’s ailing a bit and the Jags need a win badly against the Redskins and their poor run defense. Jennings could see a lot of work in relief of MJD.
Derrick Ward: It looks like Foster will go, but if you saw what happened to Adrian Peterson and you own Foster, pick up Ward to play it safe. Well, even if you didn’t see what happened to AP. They have too good of a matchup to miss out on.
Mike Sims-Walker: He came up big last week even after his limbs were bent into the wrong positions. This week he gets the Redskins pass defense and should be able to do a little work.
Jacoby Ford: He just continues to make big plays and the Raiders will surely be trying to come from behind against the Colts. He is boom or bust, but his boom is hard to ignore.
Rex Grossman: Yesterday I said I couldn’t trust him even in a nice matchup against the Jags, but if you are the risk taking type, his upside is pretty high.
Tashard Choice: He had a bounce back game against the Redskins with 84 yards and a TD and has a good matchup against Arizona next week. Felix Jones will continue to get a few more touches, but Choice will get enough work to be considered.
Donald Brown: Last week Javarris James was on this list and he ended up getting one carry for zero yards. It’s hard to trust him, but unless James got 1 touch last week because Caldwell lost a bet, it seems like Brown is back in the good graces.
Anthony Armstrong: With that gunslinger Sexy Rexy at the helm, AA had 100 yards receiving and gets the Jags next week.
Jimmy Graham: In the never ending carousel of tight ends to give a shot on your team, James Graham made a circus catch for a touchdown and caught another touchdown without acrobatics, but it counts the same. If Drew Brees likes you in the red zone, that’s a good thing. He’s a high risk/reward guy, but has a nice matchup against Atlanta.
Josh Morgan: He’s had nice games the last two weeks with Alex Smith back at the helm. He’s been the #1 receiver in targets instead of Crabtree. The Niners get the Rams in a must win game.
Maurice Morris: He proved a lot last week by running hard and well as he topped 100 yards and scored a touchdown. Miami isn’t the easiest matchup so you have to temper your expectations, but he should get plenty of work.
