Week 6 Fantasy Football Pick Ups

Kansas City Chiefs and New Orleans Saints are on the BYE you might be looking for replacements.  Who to pick up this week?

Couple weeks back I mentioned Chargers RB Brandon Oliver.  Hopefully you got him off waivers.  Here are some guys to target this week.

RB Andre Williams, New York Giants
The rookie out of BC should get a shot at the lead guy in the Giants backfield for the next couple of games with Rashad Jennings banged up, and maybe it leads to more of a role in the second half of the season.

RB Ronnie Hillman, Denver Broncos
Montee Ball is out a few weeks in Denver.  They obviously pass first, and second out there, but Hillman should be the starting back.  They also have C.J. Anderson and rookie Juwon Thompson.

TE Tim Wright, New England Patriots
5 receptions for 85 yards and a TD last week.  Is it a mirage or could this be legit?  Maybe it's somewhere in between, but worth a shot, especially if you need a TE.

RB Antone Smith, Atlanta Falcons
Limited touches, Jackson, Rodgers, and Freeman all ahead of him on the depth chart and yet Smith has scored 4 touchdowns (2 rush, 2 rec.).  Not saying you play him right away, but he does have 3 double-digit performances in 5 games (and another with 9) in standard scoring leagues.  In deeper league definitely worth owning.
