Here are the offensive players that you should be looking at for this week's waivers.

(1) Forum Discussion

JP Losman QB BUF – Losman will get the start in week 9 with Trent Edwards out with an injury. He has two decent matchups the next two weeks with Cincinnati and Miami, and if he plays well enough he may even be able to win back his starting job.

John Beck QB MIA – Beck has been splitting first team reps with Cleo Lemon in practice and while Lemon will start this week, he will probably be on a short leash. With the Dolphins at 0-8, they may as well see what the rookie can do for them.

Ryan Grant RB GBP – This is a no-brainer. Grant is now the starter for Green Bay and gets to face a Kansas City defense that is ranked 17th against the run.  He did manage 104 yards in a surprise start in week 8, but that was against the league’s worst run defense, the Broncos. He has a few tough matchups going forward, so he should be considered a spot starter for now.

Aaron Stecker RB NOS – Stecker saw a little action when Reggie Bush was injured. Bush’s injured ribs should allow him to start this week, but I wouldn’t be surprised to see Stecker get some carries to alleviate Bush’s workload. If Bush does go down though, Stecker would be next in line.  It might be a good idea to grab him now if you have the space.

Maurice Morris RB SEA – HC Mike Holmgren has stated that he is trying to get the ball into Morris’ hands more, and it makes sense with the lousy play coming from starter Shaun Alexander. Seattle has some very good rushing matchups coming up, including this week against Cleveland.

Jerome Harrison RB CLE – Harrison was inactive for the early games of the season and has only seen playing time due to the injury to Jamal Lewis. In the two games he has played he has touched the ball 14 times and averaged 7.4 yards per touch. Lewis’ injury will continue to hold him back over the next few games and Harrison could beat out Jason Wright as the backup with more play like this. Beware they face some tough defenses going forward, but if you need the help he may provide some.

James Jones WR GBP – Jones will be owned is almost every bigger league, but after watching him torch Champ Bailey on a go route for a 79 yard touchdown, I think Favre will feel more comfortable with him moving forward, so if he is available in your league, he might be worth a shot. He is a rookie so consistency will not happen, but he could hit a homerun for you.

Adimchinobe Echemandu RB HOU – With Ahman Green out last week, “Joe”, as his teammates refer to him, rushed 10 times for 62 yards against a tough San Diego defense. With the likelihood of Green missing this week’s game, “Joe” should again split time with Ron Dayne against New Orleans. But be careful as “Joe” is dinged up himself and didn’t practice fully on Wednesday.

Chris Henry WR CIN – Henry is expected to be in the lineup for week 10 against Baltimore, and no matter what kind of idiot he is off the field, he does give the team a spark when he is on the field.  Grab him this week before the rush.

Reggie Brown WR PHI – After a non-existent start to the season, McNabb has finally remembered that Brown was wearing green too. After averaging 2 receptions for 20 yards in each of the 1st four games, he is averaging over 5 receptions and 83 yards a game in his last three. If he is available he could help for the stretch run if this trend continues.

DJ Hackett WR SEA – DJ Hackett was a player I was very high on going into the season, but his hasn’t played since injuring his ankle in week 1. He is now healthy and is not even listed on the team’s injury report. He is expected to move right into the starting lineup this week and should see plenty of chances, especially since Deion Branch is no guarantee to play this week.  If he is out there, grab him.
