During the fifth week of the 2009 fantasy football season, a few players emerged as possible waiver wire gems. Here are the players to pick up off of your fantasy league’s waiver wire if they are available.
QB Matt Hasselbeck, Seattle Seahawks
After Matt Hasselbeck suffered a rib injury a few weeks ago, many fantasy owners left him for dead. However, he had four touchdowns this week and is definitely worthy of a roster spot. Grab him!
RB Sammy Morris, New England Patriots
With Fred Taylor sidelined following ankle surgery, Sammy Morris has emerged as the running back to own on the Patriots. He’s getting carries and catches out of the backfield.
WR Miles Austin, Dallas Cowboys
Miles Austin had a game to remember — 250 receiving yards and two touchdowns. With the passing game struggling, the Cowboys may look to Austin more and more starting in Week 6.
TE Visanthe Shiancoe, Minnesota Vikings
Quietly, Visanthe Shiancoe now has three touchdowns this season. This week, he played arguably his best game of the season. Pick him up off the waiver wire if he is available.
