Brian Quick-WR-St. Louis Rams (25.6%)

If you can’t get Benjamin, the next-best receiver available is Brian Quick.  Quick’s situation is similar in many ways being the leading receiving option on his team.  The Rams will probably have to play many of their games from behind which should lead to plenty of targets for Quick no matter who the quarterback is.

This week, Austin Davis got the start for St. Louis and found Quick for his first touchdown of the season on a 51 yard bomb in the first half.  Unfortunately for his owners who started him, he only managed one other catch all game finishing with his low point for catches and yards with two catches for 62 yards. The previous two weeks, Quick was targeted nine times each game with seven catches in each for 99 and 74 yards.

This week isn’t the week to pick up Quick for a shot-term solution since he and the Rams are on their bye week, but when they come back expect he and Shaun Hill to get on a nice role. He returns in week five to a very favorable matchup against the Eagles , so plan accordingly if week 5 is when you need a WR fill-in.
