Happster's Market Report: Week 13


Buying:

Santana Moss, WR – Washington Redskins

Santana is back in action and has a full game under his belt; the time is ripe for him to start producing like we all wanted him to on draft day. What’s really great is that he’s probably available in a good number of leagues because of his injuries. He also might have been dropped by owners weary of his performance last week in Seattle. Well let me tell you, playing in Seattle is not easy, especially when you are coming from the east coast, and it was his first game back off of a big injury. So I wouldn’t put too much credit into it as a sign of things to come. Of course, whenever you pick up a Redskins wide receiver you have to remember that his ceiling = Rex Grossman. So don’t expect epic numbers, but he’ll be a good WR2/3 in most leagues.

James Jones, WR – Green Bay Packers (really, any Packer WR will do)

James Jones only had three catches last week…for 91 yards and a TD. Is this a guy I’m starting every week as a WR1? Of course not, but the Green Bay Packers have officially reached New Orleans Saints circa 2009 levels of offensive production. There is so much wealth floating around in Green Bay that almost any wide receiver will be a worthwhile add. James Jones is just the best name amongst the crowd.

Selling:

Andre Johnson, WR – Houston Texans

He’s back! But Schaub’s out! That’s ok, we’ve got Matt Leinart! He’s good right??...oh, he’s out too? Well we’ve got…a choice…a choice between T.J. Yates (who?) or Jake Delhomme? Screw that, I’m putting him back on my bench!

Was David Garrard not available? 
Penny Stocks:

Jacob Tamme, TE – Indianapolis Colts

But the Colts are terrible! Why bother? Well, with Dallas Clark sidelined by injuries someone has to catch the dump offs from Dan Orlovsky, who’s getting his first start since playing for the 0-16 Detroit Lions…maybe teams should not sign this guy…

Riley Cooper, WR – Philadelphia Eagles

In the brief (and equally disastrous) Vince Young Era the Eagles have played havoc with their receiving corps. No one guy seemed to stand out as the go-to guy on the team. However, little-known Riley Cooper has stood out as a potential big target grabbing 8 receptions and a TD over the Vince Young games (the last two). Of course, if Michael Vick comes back this could all change again, but then again, it might not.

Or this guy? Doesn't every team want this guy?
