Need to pick up a WR if Megatron can't go this week...WHIR!

[briggs820006]

Twelve man league, non-ppr, 8 rec yds = 1pt. Here are the free agent the options I am considering:

Northcutt vs. GB (filled in well for Calvin last week; got the most looks from Dante; not a great long term investment)
Avery vs. Jax (HUGE game potential...NEGATIVE game potential; quaterback sitch is iffy)
Breaston vs. Sea (despite the big 'Q', buzz is that he's back to normal this week; at 3 he can be as good as several team's 1)
Royal vs. SD (bounced back a little last week...can he sustain given Orton's squirt gun of an arm?)

Another option is to claim Devery Henderson off waivers. I'm not really a big fan of Saints receivers not named Colston with the way Brees likes to share the love, but I figured I'd throw it out there for argument's sake. Thoughts? Thanks in advance!

Who are you considering dropping to pick up a WR?

If you have 2 defenses or kickers (I've never understood why anyone carries 2 kickers) then go that route.

Anyway, as to your question, if it's just to fill in for Megatron for 1 week then I like Northcutt here. I wouldn't waste waiver priority on a 1 week fill-in so I'd say no to Henderson. Breaston has the same issue as Henderson with too much talent surrounding him and Avery is on a flat out terrible offense. Yes, he scored last week....against Minnesota's third string defense. I don't like him either. (Actually, I do like him and think he's a talented player, but I DO NOT like his situation).
