Waiver Wire: Take your pick in Kansas City, West or Davis

West appeared to have overtaken Knile Davis as the backup in Kansas City in recent weeks, and a Bleacher Report report suggests he is the preferred Jamaal Charles replacement of head coach Andy Reid, so he gets the slightly higher FAAB than Davis.

With West being a bit on an unknown, more conservative fantasy players may prefer Davis, who has done it before – 'it' being replacing Charles for a period of time.

Johnson was likely drafted in your league, and almost as likely dropped after a disastrous first few weeks. The veteran WR is back in a big way but comes with some concern – his two big weeks have come with backup Matt Hasselbeck under centre.

Gates returned from a four-game suspension and promptly caught a touchdown pass on the Chargers’ first offensive possession Monday night. Gates isn’t what he once was, but he’s still a starter in fantasy; grab him if he's available.

The Seahawks’ backfield still belongs to a healthy Marshawn Lynch, but Rawls has looked so impressive filling in he’s worth stashing on your bench. Any week he starts, you can slot Rawls confidently into your RB2 spot.

McCown did more than just effectively end Johnny Manziel’s fantasy relevance this year with his big Week 5 performance, he also put himself on the radar. Beware the Denver Broncos' defence in Week 6 however.

The Saints’ receiving corps is like the Broncos’ backfield, you never know who is getting the work. For now however, it appears Snead is the second option for QB Drew Brees, making him a must own.

The Giants’ backfield workload has been hard to figure, but performances like Vereen had in Week 5 will certainly go a long way toward earning more work for the former Patriots back in the future.

Donnell had an only ok Week 5 but is an intriguing add moving forward because his workload is likely to increase if injuries force either Odell Beckham Jr or Ruebin Randle to miss time. 

After some back and forth to start the season, the Texans have the right quarterback starting again with Hoyer. He’s a bye week fill-in option.
