Week 16 free agent/waiver wire recommendations (12/17/08)
Wednesday, December 17th, 2008Congratulations to those who advanced to the finals in your league’s playoffs as a result of the Week 15 games! One more challenge to be met before you can be crowned champion of your league and have bragging rights for the next year (or at least until next year’s draft)! Actually, two more if you happen to be an unfortunate owner with Reggie Bush in your starting lineup. Since Bush has been placed on Injured Reserve and is done for the season, you’ll need to find a replacement. Some of you may also be looking for free agents with more favorable matchups than those for the players currently on your roster.
Here’s a list of recommended free agent/waiver wire pickups who may be available in your league. As was the case last week, any players on this list are just one-week recommendations at this point.
Quarterbacks
Seneca Wallace, Tarvaris Jackson, Marc Bulger, Ryan Fitzpatrick, Dan Orlovsky, Ryan Fitzpatrick, JaMarcus Russell.
Running Backs
DeShaun Foster, Kevin Faulk, Fred Jackson, Lamont Jordan.
