Linebackers

Nicholas Morrow (OAK): He’s made this list before, but warrants putting here again as he’s solidified himself as the second-best linebacker the Raiders have, playing a spot that typically produces decent stats. Having already had his bye week, he represents a solid LB3 for the remainder of the season and could put up starter-level production for the foreseeable future, considering he’s only 24 years old. Addable in just about all formats.

Blake Cashman (NYJ): Another repeat (Week 3), but bears mentioning again since he’s really looking good with a healthy number of snaps. Neville Hewitt has found his way back to the bench with C.J. Mosley back to action while Cashman has remained on the field. And he actually out-snapped the "stud" Mosley against the Pats last week, tallying an impressive six solos and two helpers. There certainly are stats to be had on this defense, especially with the offense looking like it can’t fight its way out of a wet paper bag. He’s likely gone in your league, but perhaps you can get him on the cheap. He may be available in shallower leagues, and I will again say that there’s some poor man’s Kuechly here. He really exhibits a nose for the football, and as the game slows down he will start making some big plays. Only a matter of time. Go get him.
