Here's a quick look at 10 fantasy players to target off the waiver wire after Week 2.
Bills defense: The Bills defense has produced two consecutive solid performances for fantasy owners, so it's time to consider it a viable option in all formats. The presence of DT Marcus Stroud has made a huge difference, and coach Dick Jauron has this crew playing at a high level.
Michael Bush, RB, Oakland: Bush showed exactly what he can do at the NFL level against the Chiefs, rushing for 90 yards and one touchdown. With Justin Fargas injured, Bush could be in line for more carries behind Darren McFadden. He's well worth a look in leagues with 12-plus teams.
John Carlson, TE, Seattle: Was Brett Favre on the cover of Madden 2009, or was it the Seahawks' wide receivers? With wideouts dropping like flies, Carlson has become the best receiving option for Matt Hasselbeck. Grab him now while Deion Branch and Bobby Engram are out of action.
Justin Gage, WR, Tennessee: The Titans haven't had a solid fantasy wideout since Derrick Mason left fot Baltimore, but Gage still warrants consideration in leagues with 12-plus teams. He should see more targets in the passing game while veteran Kerry Collins is under center.
Fred Jackson, RB, Buffalo: Jackson saw six carries and caught seven passes for 83 yards in the Bills' impressive win over Jacksonville. He's worth taking a chance on in leagues with 12-plus leagues and is a must-own runner for fantasy owners who have Marshawn Lynch on their roster.
Bryant Johnson, WR, San Francisco: Johnson missed a lot of the preseason with an injured hamstring, but he's back at 100 percent and looking good in Mike Martz's offense. The veteran hauled in six passes for 78 yards and scored a touchdown in the Niners' win over Seattle.
J.T. O'Sullivan, QB, San Francisco: O'Sullivan had a very nice stat line against Seattle, completing 20 of 32 passes for 321 yards and a touchdown. While he's a risk in most formats, O'Sulivan does have a huge advantage in Week 3. He's facing the hapless Detroit Lions.
Michael Pittman, RB, Denver: Pittman starts our mini waiver-wire run on Broncos. He has established himself as the goal-line back for coach Mike Shanahan, so he's worth considering in touchdown-based formats. Pittman has more scores than LaDainian Tomlinson after two weeks.
Tony Scheffler, TE, Denver: It's pretty apparent that Jay Cutler is in the beginning stages of a breakout season, and Scheffler is one of his favorite targets. The veteran tight end hauled in six passes for 64 yards and scored one touchdown this week and is a viable fantasy starter.
Darren Sproles, RB, San Diego: He might be small, but Sproles is as explosive as a room full of dynamite. With Tomlinson missing time due to an injured toe, Sproles saw a ton of work against the Broncos. He should be added in all leagues with 12-plus teams and as a handcuff for L.T.
