Solid Pickups (aka. QBs that will be playing)

QB Kurt Warner, Arizona
I came close to putting Warner on the "hot" list, but couldn't bring myself to do it. Warner is definitely the better option for the Cardinals, and represents a clear ability for the team to win games right now. He's been coming off the bench to run the two minute offense, and last week he got a little more time than that, entering the game in the second quarter. He's not a guy that you can count on right now, but if you are hard up at the position, grab Warner and hold onto him.

QB Damon Huard, Kansas City
With a second straight solid week, we can now recommend that Huard be picked up. The emergence of Dwayne Bowe and the Chiefs offense actually moving the ball makes Huard a decent bye week fill in.

QB Trent Dilfer, San Francisco
Notice that I changed the title of this category, Dilfer is the reason for that. I have a very hard time recommending Dilfer, he looked horrible last week. But, it looks like he'll be playing this upcoming week, and possibly beyond that. The 49ers are up against Baltimore this week, so only if Dilfer is the last possible QB playing this week should you be starting him. Beyond week five, he could settle down if he is going to be the long term solution for San Francisco with Smith out. Again, in this case I'm merely pointing out a guy that will be starting in case you are out of options.

On the Radar

WR Michael Jenkins, Atlanta
Speaking of offenses showing signs of like, hello, Atlanta! Though Jenkins hasn't cracked the starting lineup, he is becoming a go to guy for the Falcons. Six catches and sixty plus yards this week, but more importantly, two scores. If nothing else, he should continue to be a target in the red zone.

WR  Keenan McCardell, Washington
With Santana Moss expected to miss several weeks, the Redskins have signed McCardell. Looking over the other options at WR for Washington and you can see why. McCardell is a veteran that would be able to step in and perform so keep an eye on his playing time potential.

TE Quinn Sypniewski, Baltimore
Who? Yup, these are the guys you are going to read about here on a weekly basis. Your starting TE on a bye this upcoming week? Grab Mr.S and start him. Both Todd Heap and Daniel Wilcox missed time with injury last week, no problem, the Ravens plugged in Mr.S and all he did was catch six passes for thirty plus yards and a touchdown. If Heap is going to be out an extended period of time, Mr. S will continue to fill in as the Ravens offense will use the TE no matter who it is.

Dynasty Only

RB Leonard Weaver, Seattle
Last week we highlighted Alvin Pearman in this space, since we're not entirely confident in Shaun Alexander making it thru the entire season. Well, the injury bug bit the Seahawks running core last week, but it wasn't Alexander. Pearman was hurt and will miss the rest of the season, that bumps Weaver up the depth chart a notch.

RB Kenneth Darby, Tampa Bay
While Graham and Pittman will be the glamour guys from Tampa Bay on the waiver wire this week, the shuffling of the depth chart moves Darby into the third position.

RB Justin Fargas, Oakland
We've discussed the Raiders/Jordan/Rhodes already here so I won't rehash. With Jordan hurting, it wouldn't be a bad idea to add Fargas to those of you with deep rosters. I've always considered him to be a guy that can handle the load, just that he hasn't been given the opportunity. Jordan's absence would bump Fargas up a notch closer to being the starter or at least a RBBC member.
