Week 16: Emergency Kickers and Defenses

K Josh Scobee, Jacksonville Jaguars
With the Jaguars up against the Oakland Raiders, Scobee is a really nice start this week. If you are in a championship game, you can rely on Scobee to be effective this week. The Jaguars have a sound offense and Scobee has been fine since missing most of the beginning of […]

Week 15: Emergency Kickers and Defense

K Ryan Longwell, Minnesota Vikings - While it’s tough to bank on offensive production out of the Vikings, this week should be a good week for Longwell. With Tavaris Jackson playing well and Chester Taylor and Adrian Peterson healthy, the Vikings’ offense is better than it’s been all year. Going up against the Chicago Bears […]

Waiver Wire Kickers and Defenses

K Josh Scobee, Jacksonville Jaguars
Scobee is healthy and kicking well. This week the Jaguars face the Carolina Panthers. While their defense isn’t as good as it’s been in recent years, the Panthers aren’t totally inept. That should allow Scobee to get a couple field goal attempts this game, at least.
K Ryan Lindell, Buffalo Bills
You can’t […]

Week 14: Waiver Wire Pickups

QB Luke McCown, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
With Jeff Garcia sidelined, McCown stepped in for the Bucs and played great in the team’s victory. McCown threw for two touchdowns and for over 320 yards. However, Garcia might come back this week from his back injury. If you pickup McCown, he’d be a decent start […]

Week 13: Waiver Wire Pickups

QB AJ Feeley, Philadelphia Eagles - The Eagles were expected to be blown out by the New England Patriots. But Philadelphia almost pulled the huge upset as Feeley showed he’s capable of filling in for Donovan McNabb. Feeley was extremely impressive and if McNabb stays sidelined, Feeley would actually be a pretty good start from […]

Week 11: Waiver Wire Kickers and Defenses

K David Akers, Philadelphia Eagles - Akers and the Eagles face a very favorable opponent in the Miami Dolphins. The Dolphins are a sub par defensive team and their offense has been poor all season. This is a recipe for a long day of work for Akers. Donovan McNabb hasn’t been great in the red […]

Week 11: Waiver Wire Pickups

QB Matt Schaub, Houston Texans - Schaub is a forgotten man in the fantasy football world. He started off the season strong but has fizzled over the last month or so. The good news for him is his number one wide receiver Andre Johnson is schedule to return this week, which should really help his […]
