Though week 10 has no bye weeks, that doesn’t mean we are done with them yet. The NFL takes a brief break from making our fantasy football lives a living hell. Four more teams will be off on week 11. It was the labor dispute and fear of games being missed that had the League juggle the bye weeks the way they have.
If your team is hurting in a particular position, your buddies still have Hot Waiver Wire Pick-ups for Week 10
At QB, the guys love Cincinnati’s Andy Dalton (available in 77% of leagues) who is averaging 15 points per game. At RB, the Bears, Marion Barber has been dropped by most owners, is available in 95% of leagues, and has become a TD vulture getting plenty of goal-line carries. He’s averaging 10 points per week the past 3 weeks. For WR help we like another Bear, Earl Bennett (available in 99%). Bennett is back, healthy, and has become Cutler’s go to guy in the revised Mike Martz offense. Another option would be Cowboys, Laurent Robinson (available in 98%), who is averaging over 9 points per game the past 4 weeks. At TE, the Eagles Brent Celek (available in 85%) is still out there and coming off of back to back weeks with 7 catches and 31 FF points over last 3 weeks. Jake Ballard is also out there (available in 73%) and has become the hot go to guy for Eli Manning and the resurgent Giants with 12 catches and 25 points over last 3 weeks.
In Fantasy Football for James, we make the very hypothetical case of James being in the playoff hunt. The guys encourage owners in playoff situations to make your final moves and trades. Take a look at NFL teams week 14, 15 & 16 schedules and finalize roster if you can with those match-ups in mind. Look for players on your team that can help you get into the playoffs based on match-ups.
