WR Nate Burleson- Detroit

Percent owned (ESPN): 27.1%

Doesn’t seem to matter who the quarterback is. Since he returned from his injury, Burleson has 35 catches for 410 yards and 4 scores in 6 games. He’s got a track record as a proven veteran receiver as well.

WR Danny Amendola- St. Louis

Percent owned (ESPN): 26.5%

Amendola is a PPR god, 6th in the league with 60 receptions. He doesn’t have a high YPC,  a mere 8.2, for 493 total yards and 3 scores, but he catches balls and his yardage isn’t terrible in non-PPR leagues either. 

WR Mike Thomas- Jacksonville

Percent owned (ESPN): 15.3%

He continues to produce and continues to be available in a lot of leagues, even after his amazing Hail Mary catch. Thomas has 46 catches for 572 yards and 3 scores on the season and is at least a good WR4 and probably a WR3 weekly in PPR leagues.

RB Mike Goodson- Carolina

Percent owned (ESPN): 10.7%

2 starts, 2 100 yard games, the only 2 100 yard games by Carolina running backs this season. With so many injuries in front on him, the former 4^th string back could be the starter or at least a big part of the offense down the stretch. He managed 120 yards against Baltimore’s tough run defense. He’s a good one.

RB Chris Ivory- New Orleans

Percent owned (ESPN): 11.9%

With Pierre Thomas likely to miss a few more weeks, Ivory could remain fantasy valuable for a few more weeks, even with Reggie Bush coming back. Ivory had 95 yards on 20 carries and a score last week against Seattle and has 494 total yards and a touchdown on the year.

TE Brandon Pettigrew- Detroit

Percent owned (ESPN): 35.3%

In 7 Hill starts, Pettigrew has 43 catches for 435 yards and a score, and it looks like Hill will be the starter for the rest of the season with Stafford hurt. Pettigrew leads the league in receptions by a tight end with 50 (tied with Jason Witten)

RB Keiland Williams- Washington

Percent owned (ESPN): 12.2%

With Clinton Portis getting hurt again and Ryan Torain still out indefinitely, Williams has value in fantasy as he has the chance to start at running back down the stretch for the Redskins. In his last 2 games, he has 35 rushes for 156 yards and 2 scores, as well as 10 catches for 77 yards.

WR James Jones- Green Bay

Percent owned (ESPN): 7.0%

Donald Driver doesn’t seem like himself with his bad thigh injury. Even with Driver playing, Jones had 3 catches for 51 yards and a score against Minnesota and had 8 catches for 123 yards and a score week 9 with Driver out of the lineup. He also had a 4 catch 107 yard game earlier this season with Driver in the lineup. With Driver iffy down the stretch, Jones has value in Green Bay’s explosive offense.

 

QB Jon Kitna- Dallas

Percent owned (ESPN): 11.8%

He is 100 for 168 for 1223 yards, 10 touchdowns, and 7 picks this season and more importantly 31 for 46 for 473 yards, 6 touchdowns, and a pick in two games under Jason Garrett.

QB Matt Hasselbeck- Seattle

Percent owned (ESPN): 14.2%

Hasselbeck has 688 passing yards and 2 scores in his last 2 and is really playing better thanks to improved pass protection.

QB Shaun Hill- Detroit

Percent owned (ESPN): 7.5%

He’s yet to throw for less than 227 yards in a full game and is 156 for 258 for 1632 yards, 10 picks, and 8 picks this year.

WR Brian Hartline- Miami

Percent owned (ESPN): 1.1%

Lost in Miami’s terrible game against Chicago was Hartline’s 5 catches for 70 yards. He now has 28 catches for 407 yards in his last 6, with 4 or more catches in each of them and 14 catches for 253 yards in his last 3. Also, if Brandon Marshall misses any time, Hartline becomes the #1 guy and has proven himself under multiple starting quarterbacks.

WR Blair White- Indianapolis

Percent owned (ESPN): 0.6%

After Austin Collie got hurt, White caught 5 balls for 42 yards and 2 scores. Collie could miss next week’s game, which means White could be a fantasy factor.

RB Maurice Morris- Detroit

Percent owned (ESPN): 0.6%

Morris received 11 carries against Detroit with Best hurting and could get more action down the stretch. He was a decent fantasy option down the stretch last year with Kevin Smith hurt and could be again this year.

RB Dmitri Nance- Green Bay

Percent owned (ESPN): 0.0%

I don’t know who the hell this guy is, but he led the Packers in rushing against the Vikings and received 12 carries. He could be a factor down the stretch as a running back for the Packers, so it might be a good idea to take a flier on him in deep leagues.

TE Evan Moore- Cleveland

Percent owned (ESPN): 0.3%

Colt McCoy loves throwing to his tight ends and with Ben Watson getting hurt early, the talented Moore had 3 catches for 69 yards against Jacksonville. If Watson misses any time, Moore could be a startable tight end.
