Best of the Rest

Here are other options at each position in case your in deep leagues where the top ten are gone or are looking for other options. All players are available in more than half of ESPN leagues and are listed in the rough order I would consider picking them up.

If you have specific drop/add questions, you can write them in the comments section at the bottom of the page or send them to me @ZT_Sports on twitter. I’ll do my best to answer all your questions with what I would do if I had your roster decision.

These players were also considered for the top ten waiver wire pickups but just missed the cut. I wouldn’t take them over players found in the top ten, but I do think they have fantasy value as well.

QB: Alex Smith (Kansas City Chiefs), EJ Manuel (Buffalo Bills)

RB: Andre Ellington (Arizona Cardinals), Pierre Thomas (New Orleans Saints), Da’Rel Scott (New York Giants), Brandon Jacobs (New York Giants)

WR: Austin Pettis (St. Louis Rams), Rod Streater (Oakland Raiders) Santana Moss (Washington Redskins), Kyle Williams (San Francisco 49ers), Mohamed Sanu (Cincinnati Bengals)

TE: Coby Fleener (Indianapolis Colts), Zach Ertz (Philadelphia Eagles), Tyler Eifert (Cincinnati Bengals), Brandon Pettigrew (Detroit Lions)

D/ST: Buffalo Bills (vs New York Jets), Tampa Bay D/ST (vs New England Patriots)

Home/Arizona Cardinals
