Have an injury or a bye and need someone to pick up, here are the Top 5 pick ups for Week 5:
Rudi Johnson, RB,
Lions
Kevin Smith is now gone as the starter. In comes Johnson. Rudi Johnson had over 100 total yards in week 3.
Deion Branch, WR,
Seahawks
Matt Hasselback looks to get one of his starting receivers back in Week 5. Branch is ready to play. He may not start and will most likely come back slowly, but he will be a nice bye week pick up for weeks to come.
Steve Breaston, WR,
Cardinals
With Boldin out, Steve Breaston will get the starting nod. He had 9 catches for a big 122 yards in the shootout with New York last weekend and could be productive in the
Cardinals' pass-first offense.
Lance Moore, WR,
Saints and Robert Meacham, WR,
Saints
With injuries to Marques Coltson and Jeremy Shockey, Drew Brees had found his new weapons. They combined for 3 touchdowns last week in a 33-19 win over San Francisco.
Mewedle Moore. RB,
Steelers,
With Willie Parker sidelined for at least another week and the season ending injury to Rashard Mendenhall on Monday Night, the
Steelers turn thier running game over to Moore. They need Moore to take some of the load off Big Ben, who has spent most of the time on his back side this season.
