Waiver Wire: Week 2

13. September 2011  - Published by Dan Clasgens

All right it’s Tuesday and that means it time to hit the waiver wire. Here’s guys you should look at listed in the order I like them position-by-position.

PICK UP WEEK
QB Cam Newton (CAR)
– I will be the first to admit that I was a doubter in Cam Newton. However, after watching him have a solid preseason and blow up in Week 1, I no longer sit on that side of the fence. Temper your expectations a bit, but there is no doubt his upside long term is endless.

QB
Ryan Fitzpartick (BUF)
– had the best Total QBR rating of Week 1; a nice matchup play
Chad Henne (MIA) – turned in his best game as a pro in loss to NE; could be ready for breakout
Rex Grossman (WAS) – has turned in 300+ yards passing in 3 of last 4 for WAS

RB
Cadillac Williams (STL)
– value is soaring with Steven Jackson out this week and maybe longer
Jerome Harrison (DET) – appears to be the handcuff to Jahvid Best, who has durability issues
Tashard Choice (DAL) – could be worth a stash if you have the extra spot on your roster

WR
Jordy Nelson (GB)
– My pick to be the WR2 to emerge in the Packers’ explosive offense
Devery Henderson (NO) – Not a big fan but injuries have him emerging on Saints’ depth chart
Jacoby Jones (HOU) – Has the ability to produce and with Kevin Walter ailing he will get chance

TE
Fred Davis (WAS)
– A huge performance in Week 1 shows he’s clearly going to be a factor
Jermaine Gresham (CIN) – Will only continue to get better as Bengals’ offense begins to gel
