Waiver Wire pickups 2

Quarterbacks:


            Josh Freeman, Buccaneers: Freeman was put up two solid games here early in the season. If you are in need of a QB2 and have a open roster spot take a chance on Freeman if there isn't much out there. Rookie WR Mike Williams has been a great addition for the Bucs. Freeman won't like up the world but you can except around 200 yards passing and 1-2 TDs.




Running Backs:


           Jason Snelling, Falcons: Snelling filled in for a injured Michael Turner with a 3 TD game and a 186 yards in total offense. If he is not already on the Turner owners roster Snelling should be one of the top waiver pickups this week. Snelling will make great trade bait for owners who don't own Turner and if Turner does get hurt again Snelling could put up good numbers. He should be owned in every league



            Mike Tolbert, Chargers: Tolbert is in the same boat as Snellling. Tolbert benefited from a Ryan Mathews injury and put up solid numbers. He rushed for 82 yards and receiverd for another 13 to go along with 2 TDs. Tolbert is the Chargers goal line back so he has some more value than Snelling in that respect if the lead back on the team is heathly. He should be owned in bigger leagues.




Wide Receivers:


            Demaryius Thomas, Broncos: The rookie WR made his NFL debut this week and Thomas is off to a great start. Thomas caught 1 TD on the way to a 8 catch for 98 yards day. Thomas was drafted to replace Brandon Marshall in the Broncos offense. Thomas should be the one of the top waiver pick for owners this week and should be owned in all leagues.

            Kevin Walter, Texans: If Walter is not on a roster he needs to be the top waiver pick up this week,. Walter put up a 144 yards on 11 recpetions and scored his second TD of the season. Walter 2 years ago was a great WR3 for owners catching 8 TDs and 899 yards. Last season he dealt with injuries and this year looks finally healthy. With the Texans potent offense and passing game Walter should be owned in all leagues.
