This post will provide a list of some of the best available waiver pickups for this upcoming Week 8 and beyond. None of the Redskins running backs are included in this list because who knows what Mike Shanahan is going to do with his backfield on any give Sunday. Without rambling anymore, here's the list:
DeMarco Murray- not much to say after his record setting game on Week 7. Run and grab him if he is still available. He has a chance of turning out to be a difference maker down the stretch.
Jackie Battle- he is the number one running back in Kansas City now. He is this year's Mike Tolbert, a solid but not spectacular pound-it runner.
Knowshon Moreno- with Willis McGahee out, he should have a heavy workload in the ultra conservative Tim Tebow led Broncos offense.
Demaryius Thomas- he was targeted 10 times by Tim Tebow in his first game back and remember that he was drafted ahead of Dez Bryant so the upside is there.
Jabar Gaffney- with Santana Moss out, Jabar Gaffney is now the top receiver on the Redskins. He should get most of the targets with Fred Davis.
Cincinnati Defense- for those that use defenses based on weekly matchups, here is the one for this week. The unheralded Bengals defense gets to face one of the weakest offenses in the NFL, the Seattle Seahawks.
