Pickups of the week

[stewie21]

I actually started Meachem in my PPR league this week. Makes for a great p/u with Colston out 6 weeks.

Also, I am one of the scared Foster owners out there. I p/u D. Ward last night. I hear a lot about Ben Tate (which I know a lot more than most about being an Auburn Fan and Grad) but Ward will get the start and goal line carries.

I see Mcgahee available in a lot of leagues as well might make a good fill in. I also drafted Sproles, if by chance he is available or you can get him for cheap in a PPR I say go for it!

Wish some of those guys were available in my leageue.

Any other standouts to keep an eye on after week 1?

Fitzpatrick and Fred Jackson surprised me week 1


guys keeping an eye on

Mike Thomas - seems to be Lukes McCowns favorite target.
Beanie Wells - might be a solid 3rd RB for your team
BUF defense - just a fluke/bad game for KC or are they that good
Alex Smith - SF has solid WRs and TE. Along with a good RB. Smith might be a good back up to keep on the bench, surely he has all the weapons to put up solid numbers
Fred Davis - thrown to 6x caught 5 for 105 yards, might replace Cooley?

Tate is a beast
I was high on Buffalo D coming into the season but consider their division. They are going to get killed a few times this season at least
Assuming Bradford is healthy, Brandon Gibson should be a big pickup with Amendola out
