Week 5 Fantasy Football Pick Ups

Quarterbacks:
Shaun Hill, St. Louis Rams
Should be back this week and is facing a terrible Eagles pass defense.

Alex Smith, Kansas City Chiefs
Tough match up against his former team in the 49ers this week, but he has 3 TD passes in each of the past two weeks and looks like a solid bye week replacement.

Runningbacks:
Jerick McKinnon, Minnesota Vikings
Mentioned him a few times in past week after AP was put on double secret probation by the Vikings.  Asiata is the guy, but McKinnon should be a big part of Minnesota's offense.

Darrin Reaves, Carolina Panthers
RBs are dropping like flies in Carolina, I'm not saying he's good, just that he's currently healthy.

Wide Receivers:
Brandon LaFell, New England Patriots
He's not great.  But he did have 6 catches for 119 yards and a TD on Monday Night.  Maybe some was in garbage time but the team won't play Aaron Dobson or Kenbrell Thompkins.  LaFell was on the field for ALL 50 offensive snaps.  I'm not going to play him, but own him in deep leagues.

Jarius Wright, Minnesota Vikings
How about this guy?  8 catches for 132 yards on Sunday?  Sure, why not?  He could be a dude Teddy Bridgewater likes throwing to, so grab him and see what happens.
