Sneaky Pickups

If you didn't catch it on my last post, the site is really going to focus on the entire landscape of fantasy sports.  That means all sports are in play.  In the blog, I'll likely just focus on five sports: NFL, MLB, NHL, NBA and golf, of which I have the most experience in the first four. However, if you have a question that is a little off the beaten track (Nascar anyone?), I'll answer that too.

Let's start in the NFL, where Wednesday is generally waiver day.  Everyone knows that Frank Gore got hurt and Glen Coffee should be added--he's the pickup of the week with the Rams, Falcons and Texans being the next three opponents on the slate for the Niners (Gore will be out longer than you think, BTW).

Want three sleepers who are out there in just about every league?

Jamaal Charles, RB, Chiefs
Apparently Larry Johnson shares an affinity for bacon cheesburgers with me. His stats are awful.  It wouldn't surprise me at all to see Charles take that job and send LJ chatting with Shaun Alexander about what went wrong in 2010.

Chad Henne, QB, Dolphins
Just a hunch, but Bill Parcells knows what he's doing, right? Definately more of a play for two QB leagues.

Andre Caldwell, WR, Bengals
Caldwell has the same number of catches and touchdowns as Mr. Ochocinco this season. Palmer prefers him over Coles or Henry.

Cheers,
TFAM
