As always, watch out for these bye teams this week.  Adjust your roster accordingly.

NFL Week 6 Injuries (offensive players only):

• the biggest news is obviously the injury to Ben Roethlisberger, he will likely miss a few weeks given he just had surgery
• LeSean McCoy may have a leg injury, left game but came back, Rex claims there’s no issues with him
• Eddie Lacy not likely to play this Thursday, Knile Davis could see significant action, he was just traded to the Packers today
• Odell Beckham Jr. has a hip pointer issue, he had obvious limp during game
• Davante Adams left game with an apparent concussion
• Eddie Royal suffered a toe injury and did not return to game
• Carlos Hyde suffered shoulder injury but came back to the game later

Week 7 Waiver Wire Watchlist:

QB

• Case Keenum – solid game over 300 yards and 3 TDs
• Brian Hoyer – over 300 yards in 4 straight games, with 6 TD and 0 INT udring that stretch
• Marcus Mariota had 30 and 27 fantasy points the last 2 weeks.

WR

• Robert Woods isn’t a big name, but he’s the clear #1 WR on the Bills, the offense has been explosive since they fired their OC earlier in the year
• Adam Thielen had a solid game heading into the bye last week, he’s now the clear #2 WR on the Vikings
• Cameron Meredith had another solid game, if he wasn’t snatched up last week, he definintely will be this week, he actually had more targets in Alshon
• Corey Coleman will be back in a couple weeks
• Ty Montgomery 10 catches on 12 targets

RB

• Devontae Booker should be owned in all leagues at this point, Booker will take over CJ Anderson’s job eventually, Anderson is only averaging 3.5 YPC while Booker at 4.7 YPC
• Preseason sleeper Jay Ajayi is eligible in 70% of leagues, he just went off for 204 yards on only 25 carries.
• Dion Lewis is eligible to come back this week and could be back in a few weeks, in the mean time, James White is the pass catching back that might be worth picking up now
• If Jacquizz Rodgers wasn’t picked up last week, he’s coming off a bye week, could be worth a look
• If Hyde is hurt, Mike Davis will get some carries
• Zach Zenner with the majority carries this week
• Knile Davis could start or get good amount of carries if Eddie Lacy is out

TE

• C.J. Fiedorowicz is second on the team in targets over the last 2 weeks

NFL Week 6 Box Scores:

Below are all 15 box scores from NFL week 6 action, showing just the skill positions.  I typically like to quickly browse through all the box scores for skill positions.  Let’s see if there’s any surprises.

• Denver is screwed at QB no matter who they start

• Guess the OC was really the problem to start the season
• SF is screwed at QB no matter who they start

• Allen Robinson disappeared this season
• Cameron Meredith is a must own at this point

 

• Case Keenum isn’t terrible afterall

• After 2 years of hype, Ajayi finally doing work
• Big Ben injury going to hurt big time

• James White is a solid pass catching back (until Dion Lewis comes back)
• Hill/Bernard situation is a mess for fantasy owners

• guess JStew is back
• Coby Fleener finally worth that crazy contract?

• Sterling Shepard and Victor Cruz disappeared last few weeks after that hot start
• Giants have ZERO run game

• Mariota had solid back to back games
• Terrelle Pryor is no fluke
• 4th (or 5th) string QB Cody Kessler could finally be the answer at QB for the Browns

• Wentz hitting that rookie wall
• Matt Jones quietly having a solid season, if Gruden would just stop with the committee bs

• Spencer Ware still killing it despite Jamaal getting solid reps

• its crazy how one draft changed the entire dynamic of the Cowboys, Dak and Zeke for years to come is a scary thought
• Ty Montgomery big game a fluke?  Adams did get hurt this game

• Sanu with 10 targets and a TD, not too shabby
• Tevin Coleman such a tease, or just inconsistent

• Lamar Miller making Matthew Berry look good
• C.J. Fiedorowicz could be a solid option at TE

• if somehow you didn’t know who David Johnson was coming into the season, now you do
• poor Fitzpatrick never going to get that deal he wanted
• Charone Peake with 10 targets, could be Decker replacement?
