Gerald Everett- TE- Rams

Even with the Rams on a bye week, it might be a good idea to pick up Gerald Everett for a buck. With Cooper Kupp on the IR, Everett might be quarterback Jared Goff's new favorite target in the red zone. In the last two weeks, Everett has three touchdowns, including the game winning score in last Monday night's classic. Goff likes to spread the ball around, but Everett could see an increase in targets if defenses plan to focus on Brandin Cooks and Robert Woods. With Rams on a bye week, Everett will be available for a buck after waivers passes. Pick him up this week.

 

 

 

Ryan Tannehill- QB- Dolphins

Miami quarterback Ryan Tannehill might be on track to play for the first time since week 5. Before Tannehill's injury that first started back in week 4, he was producing pretty good fantasy numbers and the Dolphins were 3-0. In the first three games, Tannehill recorded 54 completions for 687 yards and seven touchdowns. The Dolphins face the Colts this Sunday, whose defense has been middle of the road against the pass this season. If Tannehill ends up starting this week, it should be a shootout in Indianapolis. Pick up Tannehill for a buck this week.

 

 

 

 

Gus Edwards- RB- Ravens

The Ravens relied heavily on undrafted rookie running back Gus Edwards last Sunday against the Bengals. Edwards had 17 carries for 115 yards and a touchdown. He also recorded a two point conversion. Earlier in the season, Edwards had 10 touches against the Titans, but since week 6, he hadn't recorded more than two carries in a game. It's still unknown whether Edwards had the hot hand Sunday and the Ravens will go back to using a running back by committee approach, but Edwards has solidified himself with at least a part in the rotation. The Ravens face the Raiders this week, whose defense has given up the 8th most points to running backs this season. Pick up and start Edwards for a buck this week if you have a player on a bye week.

 

 

 

 

Dontrelle Inman- WR- Colts

Former Charger wide receiver Dontrelle Inman has seen a lot more targets since week 8 for the Colts. In his last three games, Inman has 17 targets, 14 receptions, 127 yards and a touchdown. Inman seems to be the clear number two wide receiver on the Colts depth chart. Even with Ryan Grant back in the lineup last week, Inman had four receptions for 34 yards and a touchdown. If your team is in a need of wide out for week 12, Inman could be your guy. Quarterback Andrew Luck seems to be his old self, and the Colts offense has been scary good the last few week. It might be a good idea to pick up and start Inman for buck against the Dolphins this Sunday.

 

 

 

 

Marcell Ateman- WR- Raiders

A player that is sure to be available for a buck this week is rookie wide receiver Marcell Ateman. With the Raider suffering injuries at wide receiver, Ateman found himself with five targets last week, catching four passes for 50 yards. Martavis Bryant, Jordy Nelson, and now Brandon LaFell are dealing with injuries, which makes Seth Roberts the number one wide receiver in Oakland. Ateman might not be the ideal start this week against the Ravens, but he may be someone to pick up in dynasty and keeper leagues. Pick up Ateman for a buck.
