Week Six Waiver Wire Pick-Ups

Despite the presence of Dallas Cowboys' WR Miles Austin at the numerically order list, the names are not in order of preference. Why?

Starting this week, you will start to see familiar names who may have earned a trip back to the pool after disappointing starts, stretches of unproductiveness, and/or due to bye week decisions.

The brightest names amongst these is Denver Broncos WR Eddie Royal who was a consensus 5th rounder amongst the expert community. After four weeks of crap, he was next on the list of Cut Bait right after Oakland Raiders' RB Darren McFadden. 10 receptions rekindles his PPR value.

If you aren't already, be on the lookout for players like these. I know I waived TE Greg Olson to get an active TE after the byes for RB Pierre Thomas, WR Vincent Jackson, WR Greg Jennings left me too few bench players to waive when adding free agent players. FWIW, my unwaivables on the bench are QB Eli Manning, RB Ray Rice and RB Donald Brown.
