1) Steve Breaston, ARI - WR - When Boldin is questionable, you pickup and start his replacement. In this case, Breaston.2) Miles Austin, DAL - WR - Count on him being the 'Boys No. 2 receiver unless something goes terribly wrong. It never hurts to have a starting WR in Dallas' explosive offense.
3) Sidney Rice, MIN - WR - Harvin could be playing with an injury or kept out, regardless Rice is getting his share of targets from Brett Favre. If he doesn't score, he'll get you solid chunks of yardage.
4) Johnny Knox, CHI - WR - Mr. Knox consistently gets either the yards or a touchdown, or both, every week. Cutler simply loves throwing to the speedy rookie, who could soon (if not already) replace Devin Hester as his favorite target.
5) Donnie Avery , STL - WR - Against Indy's defense this could be a tough matchup, but if the Colts will be stuffing the box to contain Steven Jackson, Avery could catch a break on several occasions with a few deep ball opportunities.
6) Eddie Royal, DEN - WR - In case somebody dropped him due to Denver's bye week, pick him up now! The man can do a lot more than just return kicks.
7) Laurence Maroney, NE - RB - As always, it's a risk to pick up, not to mention start, a Patriots RB, but with the absences of Fred Taylor and now Sammy Morris, we say, why not?
8) Tashard Choice, DAL - RB - Both Marion Barber and Felix Jones are injured. Jones may not even play and Barber's carries will be kept relatively low, so Choice looks to be the feature back this week against the Falcons. With luck, he could break the above average Falcons run D.
9) Carolina - Defense - As long as Julius Peppers is the highest paid player in the NFL, he has an incentive to move this defensive unit in a positive direction. While the likes of Indianapolis and New England may be taken in most leagues, the Panthers are a great play this week against Buffalo and are available in a significant amount of leagues around the web.
10) Anthony Gonzalez, IND - WR - When he returns back from injury, you don't want to the guy praying you get him first off the waiver wire. Think ahead, grab him early. Better to be safe than sorry. He's sure to be a No. 3 receiver for your team at the very least!
