We drafted Demarco Murray on both Classic team's but cut him in one of the leagues.Two week's later just prospecting we picked him back up for 5 bucks ,that's the week Felix went down.
Victor Cruz we picked up in the Classic for 123 and he's been a stud.
Danaruis Moore i picked up in a home league weeks ago after his monster game then he just did nothing,still hung on to him and played him last night but dead in that league.We also picked him up this week in the Primetime for 57 but didnt play him,in that seem league Jacoby Ford went well over 200 with a runnerbid of 150.
Brent Celek is another free agent who's coming on.

Really depends on what you do with them.
I spent nearly 400 on Henderson after week 1 because I was desperate for WR help. I only played him in weeks 2 and 3 and he was huge! I've kept him on my roster as insurance but haven't played him since, so was a great FA pickup for me.
Got Darius Moore few weeks back and have only played him once... last night! Great pick up in my eyes.
Grabbed Danario Alexander early and also played him only once - happened to be his best game.
And how canI forget Steve Breaston? Picked him up 3 weeks ago and started him the last 2 - he's been great in those games.
Drafted Mark Clayton, finally gave up in week 5, someone else bought him for huge and then dropped him and I just got him back this week for $5. Time will tell.
With Brees, I needed a QB for week-11 and a few weeks ago picked up both Carson Palmer and Sam Bradford with tasty match-ups next week!
So I think FA has been great this year! Again, no stud game savers but lucky with the spot play!

Already burned once on Denarius Moore earlier in the season when he fell off the map. Guess who picked him up in three leagues this week? Can't wait for his 14-201-3TD line this week. Good call.
There really hasn't been a Waiver Wire sensation so far this season. Maybe Moore will turn out to be that guy but he had some pretty bad weeks before last night's eruption. Tebow's probably the best bet so far but he needs to prove he can keep his starting job for the remainder of the season. Like Billy said, the guy who looks great one week stinks the next so there's been little consistency to trust.
Fantasy football has become more and more of a week-to-week proposition in recent years but I think it's never been as prominent as this season. I've talked about this before but it's gotten very difficult to find guys you can trust consistently this season. If you have some of the precious few you're likely in great shape. As far as the Waiver Wire goes, I think this season has been about keeping as much money available to use each week as possible because nobody has yet to consistently prove to be that Waiver Wire sensation you can start every week with confidence. So if you strike out this week you'll want to have money to spend next week on the next big thing and see if maybe he'll stick.

Decker and Cruz are both top 20 NFFC WRs. Yes, they're not top 10 like Lloyd and SJohnson last year, but I'm glad they're not (and we own Decker on a few teams). I prefer it when owners CAN'T get top-10 impact players off the wire, so the emphasis is on the draft. I'm perfectly content when the best we can get off waivers is a WR3 - for which we should still be grateful, just not ecstatic.
