Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Week 3: Eric Decker Explodes, Jamaal Charles Replacements Are Hot

After Jamaal Charles went down for the season, some fantasy owners were scrambling for a replacement. Meanwhile, a couple of Redskins, and a Broncos receiver, are hot adds this week.

Week 2 of fantasy football saw some injuries to big-name players. Anybody with Jamaal Charles on their roster, and you can include me in that group, is looking for help today. That is unless you played a handcuff with either Thomas Jones or Dexter McCluster. Then again, with the way the Kansas City Chiefs offense has been playing, is any Chiefs back worth having?

Two quarterbacks had rough weeks, injury-wise - Tony Romo and Michael Vick. While neither injury appears serious enough to start worrying about their long-term status, if you have either for next week, stay alert; you made need to juggle your roster.

A couple of Redskins are making believers out of people. Fred Davis has been on fire and is getting much love on the waiver wire. Meanwhile, Rex Grossman, the guy who has been feeding Davis, is also a hot name this week.

But the top name this week? Eric Decker. The Broncos wide receiver busted out in Week 2, going for 113 yards and two touchdowns. You can bet people will be jumping on that kind of production.
