Week 10 : Roster Moves : Torrey Smith

My first move was to unload Louis Murphy and pick up Torrey Smith.  Despite getting shut out in Week 8, he managed to put up scores of 16+ points three of the last four weeks -- including 4 touchdowns!  That's good enough to sit on my bench one week.



I decided to unload Cecil Shorts.  My next selection is a receiver that's not having a great year but has posted around 12 points each of the last 3 games.  Dwayne Bowe is still the go-to guy in Kansas City. Perhaps he's getting ready to hit his stride.

Lorenzo Taliaferro has been inconsistent.  He also lost a fumble last week.  Hey you don't last long on Team THUNDER when you do shit like that.

My next pick is more of a curiosity more than anything.  Theo Riddick has averaged 20 points the last two games.  Yes, Reggie Bush is coming back.  But Riddick is strictly a receiving back, anyway! Isn't there a fair chance, that with his recent success, he'll continue to thrive?  There's a chance...

And, when you're a bottom-feeder with no money to spend on waivers, you simply can't wait until someone is a sure thing -- you have to make speculative guesses.
