QB Aaron Rodgers, Green Bay Packers
Rodgers is listed officially as questionable and is being called a game-time decision. That said, it’s looking more and more likely that he’ll play.

RB Brian Westbrook, Philadelphia Eagles
Westbrook was unable to play last week due to an ankle injury. This week he has practiced and very well could play.

RB Willis McGahee, Baltimore Ravens
McGahee is questionable and will be a gametime decision. Look elsewhere for a safe start.

WR Anquan Boldin, Arizona Cardinals
Boldin is out for Week 5 after undergoing face surgery.

WR Brandon Lloyd, Chicago Bears
Due to a hip injury, Brandon Lloyd will be out in Week 5.

WR David Patten, New Orleans Saints
Patten has been ruled out for Week 5.

WR Deion Branch and Bobby Engram, Seattle Seahawks
Although neither wide receiver has played this season, both are expected to play in Week 5.

WR Justin Gage, Tennessee Titans
Gage is listed as doubtful and is expected to miss Week 5 of the fantasy football season.

WR Plaxico Burress, New York Giants
Burress will not play in Week 5 due to suspension.

TE LJ Smith, Philadelphia Eagles
Although listed as questionable, the latest indications are that Smith should be able to play.

Owen Daniels, Houston Texans
Quietly, Owen Daniels is emerging as a very quality tight end for the Houston Texans. He has good hands and should become a mainstay in the Texans’ passing game for a long time. In 2008, look for even more catches and even more touchdowns.

LJ Smith, Philadelphia Eagles
Spending most of the season injured, LJ Smith had a forgettable 2007 campaign. However, the Eagles made Smith their franchise player and they expect him to be a key part to their success in 2008. No matter who the quarterback is, Smith figures to have a bounce back season.

Alex Smith, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
In Alex Smith’s first couple of seasons in the NFL, he has shown very good promise. If he can stay healthy for an entire season, he has the potential to be a tight end who racks up a lot of touchdowns. He’s big, strong and has good hands – a nice combination near the end zone.

Greg Olson, Chicago Bears
After an up and down rookie season, Greg Olson should become a very good tight end in 2008. He started off his rookie season injured but slowly integrated himself into their system. In 2008, he should bust out and become a fantasy mainstay.

RB Adrian Peterson, Chicago Bears – With Cedric Benson out for the season, Peterson is a waiver wire gem. Not to be confused with the other Adrian Peterson, this Peterson isn’t going to put up great numbers but he should touch the ball enough for a fantasy team in need of a running back. An added plus is his ability to catch passes out of the backfield.

WR Keenan McCardell, Washington Redskins – The ageless wonder is up to his old tricks with the Redskins. He’s proving again to be a reliable target, this time for Jason Campbell. With many of the team’s wide receivers struggling with injuries, McCardell could be a solid play from here on out. Campbell is playing well and McCardell is one of his main targets.

TE LJ Smith, Philadelphia Eagles – Smith has some good matchups from now until the end of the season. His best matchup is in Week 16 against the New Orleans Saints. With Feeley proving he’s capable of filling in for McNabb, Smith should be fine no matter who the quarterback is. Earlier this season Smith was injured, but now he’s healthy and playing well.

K Josh Scobee, Jacksonville Jaguars – After getting hurt in preseason, Scobee is back kicking for the Jaguars. He had a big game in Week 12 and his leg look strong. The Jaguars are the type of team that can rack up a lot of field goals quickly due to their solid defense and ball control offense. If you need to replace an underperforming kicker, consider scooping Scobee off the waiver wire.
