Fantasy football week 10: Weekend waiver booms

Do you find yourself trailing after Thursday nights game? Are you uneasy about your weekend line up? Here are some weekend players that you might want to consider playing.

Ben Tate (RB): Even behind Arian Foster, Ben Tate has produced starting running back numbers. He goes up against Tampa who is 5th worst against the run game. With an ailing Andre Johnson, the Texans will be happy to pound the running game.

Michael Jenkins (WR): Jenkins should have a great game against a Green Bay defense that struggles to make plays. The Vikings will be behind this game and Christian Ponder is going to throw 30-40 times. The Vikings also have nothing to lose against a rival that they probably have little to no chance of beating. Look for the Vikings to stay aggressive on 4th down possibly allowing Jenkins to stay in some extra downs.

Michael Crabtree (WR): Crabtree has been a solid option as of late. Even though the 49er's pound the run with Frank Gore, he's been battling an injury that might shift the game plan. Giants have played tough and the 49ers might have to throw more than usual.

Earl Bennett (WR): What happened to the Bears offensive line? Surprisingly I mean it in a good way. If Jay Cutler has enough time to throw against Suh and the high powered Detroit defense, Bennett will have fantasy value. Remember, Bennett and Cutler were teammates at Vandy and have always had good chemistry. The Bears also showed last week that Bennett is the most consistent option with Hester, Sanzenbacher, Williams, and Davis dropping big passes at big moments.
