Waiver Wire Week 9 – Fantasy Football

admin — Tue, 28 Oct 2008 02:04:03 +0000

QB Shaun Hill, San Francisco 49ers
Shaun Hill is now the starting quarterback in San Francisco and makes for a very fine Week 9 Waiver Wire pickup. With Mike Martz still with the 49ers, you can expect the team to throw the ball a lot. Hill was somewhat effective last season and has a chance to become a decent backup for the rest of the fantasy football season.

RB Kevin Faulk, New England Patriots
With injuries to Laurence Maroney, Sammy Morris and LaMont Jordan, the door is open for Kevin Faulk to be the main running back option. The good thing about Faulk is that not only is he good running the ball, he’s also a good receiver. If you need an emergency starter off the waiver wire, you could do much worse than Faulk.

WR Ted Ginn, Jr., Miami Dolphins
After a very slow start to his season, Ted Ginn, Jr. showed why he’s regarded as a big time talent. It’s unknown whether he will ever live up to his potential but with the Miami offense looking solid and quarterback Chad Pennington playing well, Ginn is a wide receiver to keep an eye on.

TE Martellus Bennett, Dallas Cowboys
If Jason Witten is going to miss any action, consider picking up Martellus Bennett. Bennett is the backup tight end in Dallas and he has impressed coaching with his receiving abilities. While he’s an obvious fall off from Witten, Bennett could serve as a sufficient starter for the time being.

Fantasy Football Super Sleepers 2008

QB Matt Leinart, Arizona Cardinals
Even though Kurt Warner is playing well and putting up big stats, how much longer can he stay injury free? Additionally, there have been some rumblings about Warner retiring. All told, it’d be unwise to forget about Leinart possibly stepping in at some point and producing.

RB Cedric Benson, Cincinnati Bengals
The Bengals recently signed Cedric Benson and then followed that up by waiving Kenny Watson. With Chris Perry only playing decently, Benson could very well get a shot at a starting gig before too much longer.

WR Ted Ginn Jr., Miami Dolphins
Many fantasy football owners have given up on Ted Ginn, Jr. With Ginn off to a slow start in 2008, it’s easy to let him sit on the waiver wire. But it should be realized that Ginn is still young and is still figuring out the NFL. Once he catches on, his vast natural ability could make him a star.

TE Nate Jackson, Denver Broncos
Tony Scheffler got injured in Week 5 and could miss some time. That could end up being the break Nate Jackson needs to become a fantasy viable tight end. He hasn’t done much in his career but Jay Cutler likes to look at his tight ends near the end zone.

Does Cedric Benson see a brighter future with the Cincinnati Bengals?

Ernest Wilford 2008 Fantasy Projections

admin — Wed, 12 Mar 2008 09:35:04 +0000

After beginning his career with the Jacksonville Jaguars, Ernest Wilford is headed to the Miami Dolphins. Wilford, a big wide receiver who has had a couple of great games on the NFL level, was one of the first signings made by new man in charge Bill Parcells.

Although it hasn’t been made official yet, Wilford is expected to start next to Ted Ginn, Jr., who will be going into his second season. Wilford will be a good complement to Ginn since Ginn is a speedster while Wilford is more of a possession receiver.

Wilford likely won’t be much more than a late round draft pick in fantasy football in 2008. The key will be who the quarterback of the Dolphins will be next season. Will Parcells bring in a veteran or will the job go to a youngster? If a quality veteran is brought aboard, Wilford’s value will rise.

As of right now, Wilford’s 2008 fantasy projections would be in the neighborhood of 800 yards and five touchdowns.
