Reggie Wayne, Colts –
Wayne's decision to return to a Colts team that bore little resemblance to the Peyton Manning-era glory days is turning out to be an extremely profitable one for fantasy owners who thought he still had something left in the tank.

Demaryius Thomas, Broncos –
Speaking of Manning, he said he's nevery had a freakishly athletic talent such as Thomas to throw to. And he's definitely taking advantage.

Mike Wallace, Steelers –
Antonio Brown and Heath Miller are contributing consistently, and the return of Rashard Mendenhall gives the Steelers a ground game. If that's going to leave Wallace with two-catch games, he'll be tough to trust fantasy-wise.

Jordy Nelson, Packers –
With Greg Jennings out it was another opportunity for Nelson to shine; instead, every other Packer found fantasy success while Nelson came up dry again. He's not even scoring at home, which is a real concern.

Hakeem Nicks, Giants –
First it was going to be limited practice time. Then it was the short week that cost Nicks a game. Now it turns out the Giants can more than get by with "whoever we plug into the lineup in Nicks' spot." If you're that replaceable, your fantasy value will definitely suffer.

Josh Gordon, Browns –
Jordan Norwood, Browns –
Maybe the Browns have their quarterback in Brandon Weeden, and maybe he finally has a couple legit targets. Gordon made the downfield plays Greg Little usually drops, while Norwood has been working the underneath for a couple weeks now. And you thought you'd never see Cleveland wideouts you could trust with a fantasy start.

Cecil Shorts, Jaguars –
Big money on Laurent Robinson, a first-round pick on Justin Blackmon, and it turns out Jacksonville's most reliable receiver is a Division III guy with a penchant for late-game heroics. Now that he's producing in the first three quarters as well he may be worthy of a bye week plug-in role.

Danny Amendola, Rams –
Amendola's season may not be over, but a dislocated collarbone will definitely take a bite out of it. The only reason he's worth holding on to at this point is that the Rams don't have anyone else who has even hinted at stepping up to fill his role.
