Waiver pickup WRs - week 4?

Receivers on waiver wire:

Danny Amendola

Michael Jenkins

Randall Cobb

Andre Caldwell

Pierre Garcon

Kevin Walter

Jason Avant

Receivers on my team:

Lance Moore

Robert Meachem

Julio Jones

Denarious Moore

Would you drop any of my current roster WRs (most likely Moore) to acquire any of those available guys?

WR is my weakest position but trades for one of my spare QBs (Kolb, Romo) or Fred Davis are DOA because the teams with multiple good receivers are the same teams who drafted Rodgers, Brady, Brees, Stafford and Fitzpatrick.

Would you grab any of those guys, or just wait for injuries to bump up interest in my QBs?

    None of those guys do anything for me. None of those guys are better than any of your recievers, no way I'd drop any of yours.

    Your recieving core is a little weak, but it's not as bad as you think. I think Julio Jones goes on to play well the rest of the year, he looked great last week. Denarius Moore may have been a bit overrated by his big day, and with Jacoby Ford coming bad is going to lose production. What really concerns me is having Moore and Meacham, both on the same team, and one that really spreads the ball around, so neither is ever guaranteed a big game.

    I think you are thinking on the right track...You have Romo on the bench? That's where the key to your problem lies...wait for an injury and then go in for the kill...at this point any trade you would make, they would have the upper hand, but wait until they are desperate. Be pateint, QB's get injured all the time.

    Another option, make minimal waiver wire moves for a week or to, get to that #1 or 2 spot, and then wait for a guy to break out, and grab him. Don't be making moves just for the sake of change.

    Good luck
