Monday Pickup, don't we all need one?

Well if anyone needs a Monday pickup it's me. What a tiring week last week was... a week in the hospital, with my wife and new son means not a lot of sleep for this guy. Maybe one day I will get some good sleep again. Until then I will be in need of a Monday Pickup.

Who needs to be on your team???

Matthew Stafford, QB Lions - Don't run out and get him just yet, because he did leave yesterday's game with a shoulder injury, but if he is healthy you need to own him. Chances are someone in your league drafted him and then dropped him when he was out with his injury. He has had 24 fantasy points each of the last 2 weeks.

Jacob Tamme, TE Colts- he has stepped in and stepped up. No one could replace Dallas Clark, but he has done a good job trying. 12 and 16 points since Clark went out. He is the number one TE pickup on any board for me at this point.

Steve Johnson, WR Bills - needs to be owned in every league, he has had ups and downs, but will typically give you a decent fantasy game at minimum.

Ryan Fitzpatrick, QB Bills - what is it going to take people? He is owned in only 33% of leagues.

Brandon Pettigrew, TE Lions - his value goes up and down depending on if Stafford misses more time, but he is a solid option regardless. I like him 3 on most TE pickups below Tamme, and Aaron Hernandez.

As far as a good pickup here is one that gets me going ....

He is taking over as interim Head Coach at Dallas today
