The worst of the bye weeks have arrived for fantasy football players. Six teams are on bye in Week 8: the Rams, Dolphins, Giants, Steelers, 49ers and Ravens.Six more teams get a bye in Week 9 and four in Week 10, meaning its time to dig deep. If you play on ESPN, take note that Packers wide receiver Ty Montgomery now has eligibility as a running back on the site.Here are some players to consider adding in Week 8.---RYAN FITZPATRICK (QB, Jets)There arent many appealing options for quarterbacks to stream this week. Fitzpatrick has a great matchup against the Browns, who have allowed multiple touchdowns in every game this season and 18 overall.MATT ASIATA (RB, Vikings)Jerick McKinnon injured his ankle in Week 7 and Asiata received more touches. Asiata has double-digit carries in each of the last two games and is the short-yardage back and theres always a chance for him to get a touchdown. Asiata had 12 carries for 55 yards and six catches for 25 yards on eight targets on Sunday.DEVONTAE BOOKER (RB, Broncos)The Broncos said they wanted to get Booker more involved in the offense and they did on Monday night. He had 17 carries for 83 yards with a touchdown and should be owned in all leagues.CHRIS THOMPSON (RB, Redskins)Thompson took over as the main back after Matt Jones had fumbling issues on Sunday with his third fumble in five games. Thompson had 12 carries for 73 yards and caught seven passes for 40 yards. He can help in point-per-reception formats because of his ability to catch the ball. He has at least eight points in PPR formats in six of seven games and his role could increase. Rob Kelley will be in the mix, too.JACQUIZZ RODGERS (RB, Buccaneers)Surprisingly, he is still available in some leagues. There is no return date set for Doug Martin and Rodgers has 62 touches the last two games. Teammate Peyton Barber is an option in deeper leagues.MIKE GILLISLEE (RB, Bills)LeSean McCoy played on a bad hamstring and not surprisingly it forced him out of the game on Sunday. His status is unclear for Week 8, but if hes out Gillislee will get a big workload for a team that features the running game.DWAYNE WASHINGTON (RB, Lions)Washington is still out with an injury, but no one in the Lions backfield has stepped up to take the job. Washington will get a shot when he is ready to return so keep him on the radar.KADEEM CAREY (RB, Bears)Carey is getting more involved in the offense with 20 touches the last two weeks. He had 10 carries for 48 yards last week.Donte Moncrief (WR, Colts)Just a reminder that Moncrief is getting closer to a return from his shoulder injury. If hes available and you have room, stash him on the bench. The Colts need him badly and hes slated to practice this week.JAMISON CROWDER (WR, Redskins)Crowder has reached at least 12 points in PPR formats in three straight games. He caught seven passes for 108 yards on nine targets and with the Redskins having problems throwing the ball deep, it is opening up more targets for Crowder.DAVANTE ADAMS (WR, Packers)Adams caught 13 of 16 targets for 132 yards and two touchdowns last week against the Bears. He wont have many big games, but Adams has scored in four of six games and had at least 50 yards in three games. The Packers are built to be a pass-heavy team.TY MONTGOMERY (WR, Packers)After Montgomery caught 10 of 12 targets for 98 yards in Week 6, Montgomery was used in the backfield heavily again last week with Eddie Lacy and James Starks injured. Montgomery had nine carries for 66 yards and caught 10 of 13 targets for 66 yards.MARQISE LEE (WR, Jaguars)Its difficult to trust the Jaguars offense with how poorly Blake Bortles is playing, but Lee leads the Jaguars with 29 receptions and is second in receiving yards with 337.CORDARRELLE PATTERSON (WR, Vikings)Patterson is good in space and after the catch. He has at least six targets in three straight games and scored in two consecutive games. He caught all seven of his targets for 67 yards and a score in Week 7.JACK DOYLE (TE, Colts)As long as Dwayne Allen remains out, Doyle is in play. The Colts likes to use the tight end and they are lacking weapons at receiver. Doyle caught four passes for 53 yards with a touchdown in Week 6 when Allen missed most of the game and had 10 targets, catching nine passes for 78 yards and a touchdown on Sunday.VERNON DAVIS (TE, Redskins)Davis has filled in well for Jordan Reed, who missed his second straight week with a concussion. If Reed is out in Week 8, Davis is in play again. Davis caught all six of his targets for 79 yards in Week 8 and scored the week before.---This column was provided to The Associated Press by the Fantasy Sports Network, http://FNTSY.comCheap Air Max 90 China . However, he did make them miss him a little less. Cundiff, who had the unenviable job of replacing Dawson last season, agreed Thursday to a one-year, $1.

The game started the same way the Vancouver game started the night before, with the Jets taking the first two penalties of the game and killing off the first, but the Oilers getting on the board first, scoring on the second man-advantage. http://www.wholesale90airmax.com/ .

Inter president Erick Thohir says in a club statement on Wednesday that Vidic is "one of the worlds best defenders and his qualities, international pedigree, and charisma will be an asset.West Coast coach Adam Simpson will consider using forward Jack Darling as a mobile ruckman as the Eagles attempt to fill the massive void left by Nic Naitanui.Naitanui will miss up to 12 months of AFL action after rupturing the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee during Fridays 25-point win over Hawthorn.Scott Lycett will take over the lead ruck role in Naitanuis absence, but Simpson is yet to decide who to use as back-up.Jonathan Giles, Mitch Brown, and Fraser McInnes all struggled in the back-up role when Naitanui was sidelined with Achilles tendon soreness earlier this year.One curve -ball option available to Simpson is the 191cm Darling, who has pinch-hit through the midfield before and could prove to be a valuable mobile ruckman.Darling has booted 40.17 this year, and moving him away from the forward line would rob West Coast of one of their best attacking threats.His inexperience in the ruck also presents risks.But Simpson says its an option he will consider.His strength would be - what can we get from him around the ground. Thats the appealing part, Simpson told Perth radio station 6PR.But youve also got to think what you lose as a forward.Its very hard to play that forward--ruck position, having never done it for a start.dddddddddddd.Also giving us something in both areas - its asking a fair bit. But you never know, it could be something we look to do.West Coast need to beat the Crows in Adelaide on Friday night if they are to guarantee themselves a home final.A loss would likely see them slip to seventh - consigning them to an away elimination final.West Coasts belief has soared on the back of wins over premiership fancies GWS and Hawthorn.The triumph over the Hawks was particularly impressive, with West Coasts frenetic pressure and aerial supremacy reminiscent of the way they played during last years run to the grand final.West Coasts form resurgence coincided with Naitanuis return from injury.But Simpson has challenged his team to continue their hot run without Naitanui.Id hate to think we cant do it without him, Simpson said.All our hearts were bleeding for Nic.But weve got a job to do. Our industry doesnt give you much time to reflect, and weve moved on pretty quick.As much as were hurting, Nic wouldnt want it any other way. ' ' '
