Orton, Engram should be targeted off waiver wire after Week 5

Here's a quick look at 10 fantasy players to target off the waiver wire as we head into Week 6.

Marc Bulger, QB, St. Louis: Consider this a reminder that Bulger is coming off the Rams' bye week as the starting quarterback for new coach Jim Haslett. He has struggled this season, but Bulger's a better fantasy reserve than the likes of Kerry Collins or Gus Frerotte.

Isaac Bruce, WR, San Francisco: You think Bruce likes being in Mike Martz's offensive system? The ageless wonder doesn't post huge yardage totals, but he did haul in two touchdown passes against New England. Bruce has now scored four times in the past three weeks.

Greg Camarillo, WR, Miami:Fantasy owners in leagues with 12-plus teams should take a chance on Camarillo, who has emerged as the top wideout in Miami. He recorded 68 yards and a touchdown in a 17-10 win over San Diego and now leads the Dolphins with 17 receptions.

2008 statistics:
Rec: 17

Yards: 214

TDs: 1

Reggie Brown, WR, Philadelphia: Brown caught four passes for 84 yards against Washington and now has 163 yards the past two weeks. He's worth a look while Kevin Curtis is out. Speaking of Curtis, fantasy leaguers should add and stash him if there's roster room.

Jason Elam, K, Atlanta: Why do you still have Josh Brown or Stephen Gostkowski as your starting kicker? Elam entered this week ranked third in fantasy points among kickers on NFL.com, and that was before he scored two field goals and three extra points against Green Bay.

Bobby Engram, WR, Seattle: Engram didn't need much time to make an impact, catching a team-high eight passes for 61 yards against the N.Y. Giants. The PPR superstar could see an even greater role in the offense if Deion Branch is forced to miss time with an injured heel.

Zach Miller, TE, Oakland: We all need reminders from time to time, and this one's for fantasy leaguers who need a tight end for Week 6. Miller is coming off a career game with 95 yards and one touchdown, and this week he'll face a New Orleans team with a shaky pass defense.

Kyle Orton, QB, Chicago: Orton totaled 334 yards and two touchdowns in a blowout win over Detroit and now has five scores in the past two weeks. He'll be a viable fantasy starter in Week 6 against Atlanta. Teammates Devin Hester and Greg Olsen are also worth a look.

Brandon Stokley, WR, Denver: Stokley posted six catches, 52 yards and one touchdown in a win over Tampa Bay, and he could see a greater role in the offense if Eddie Royal's injured ankle is serious. The rookie was injured during the contest and didn't return to action.

DeAngelo Williams, RB, Carolina: Williams won't be consistent with Jonathan Stewart in the backfield, but his three-touchdown performance against Kansas City proves he's still prominent in the offense. He's still a free agent in close to 20 percent of NFL.com leagues.
