Need to bolster your roster?  Here is a look at the top college fantasy football prospects who may be available on the waiver wire. A special thanks to our friends at collegefootballgeek.com for providing us with their Waiver Wire Report for week 6.

QUARTERBACKS

THE HOT NAMES

Bryant Moniz (Hawaii)
With Greg Alexander out for the year, Moniz takes over the reigns of the high-powered Hawaii offense.  Can produce at a similar level as the veteran?  Time will tell, but you can bet that many owners will be willing to take the chance.

Steven Sheffield (Texas Tech)
Taylor Potts was pulled from Saturday’s game after being knocked around like a rag doll.  He is doubtful for this week, opening the door for Sheffield to get the start.  He is a must-play if named starter.

SOLID OPTIONS

Trey Revell (UL-Monroe)
The dual threat is hitting his stride as Sun Belt play begins.  25 and 30 fantasy points the past two weeks.

Grant Stucker (Colorado State)
The Rams QB has been remarkably consistent so far this season.  Last four games:  22, 24, 22, 28 fantasy points.

Nathan Enderle (Idaho)
600 passing yards and 6 TD passes over the past two weeks.  San Jose State, Hawaii and Nevada are up next.

Paul McCall (FIU)
27 fantasy points each of the last two weeks. A tasty date with Western Kentucky is up next.

Riley Skinner (Wake Forest)
Has put up over 22 fantasy points in each of his last four weeks.

WATCH LIST

Theo Scott (Ohio)
Put up 30 fantasy points in what should be the first of many MAC shootouts.  Remember, Boo Jackson is out for the year with a shoulder injury, so it’s Scott’s show now.

Nick Florence (Baylor)
Took over for the injured Robert Griffin (and Blake Szymanski) and put up a 27 point fantasy performance.

Donovan Porterie (New Mexico)
Threw for over 313 yards and 2 scores against Texas Tech.  Wyoming and UNLV are up next.

Grant Gregory (Kansas State)
Gregory, the South Florida transfer starting in place of the ineffective Carson Coffman, completed 16-of-23 passes for 206 yards, two touchdowns and an INT in K-State’s 24-23 victory over Iowa State. He also rushed 14 times for 29 yards and a score.

RUNNING BACKS

AWAKENINGS

Charles Scott (LSU)
Woke up from his slumber with a 19-95-2 performance, including the game-winning TD in the final minute.

Mikell Simpson (Virginia)
Posted 20-100-1 against a stout UNC defense, and added 4-45-0 in the receiving game.  He appears to finally be heathy, and has Indiana and Maryland up next.

THE HOT NAMES

Donald Buckram (UTEP)
What are we to make of the UTEP offense?  In the preseason, they were thought to be a prolific passing offense.  September brought a swoon of epic proportions.  Now in October they become a running juggernaut?  Regardless, Buckram’s 32-264-4 statline cannot be ignored.  It is his third 100 yard rushing performance of the season.

Mike Ball (Nevada)
Ball rushed 15 times for 185 yards and FIVE touchdowns on Saturday as Nevada pasted UNLV for 773 yards of offense.  The Wolfpack have a tough matchup with Louisiana Tech coming up next, but after that, then the schedule opens up considerably.  The question becomes:  what happens to Ball when Vai Taua gets back on the field?

Ike Nduka (Buffalo)
Thermo who?  Ike posted 22-170-0 on Saturday in his first start for the ineffective Brandon Thermilus.  His match up against a weak Gardner-Webb squad on Saturday has owners licking their chops.

SOLID CONSIDERATIONS

Rodney Stewart (Colorado)
Posted 32-127-2 and 21-105-1 in his past two games, and with Darrell Scott disappearing from the game plan, Stewart is The Man.  After facing Texas this week, the schedule gets easier.

Chad Spann (Northern Illinois)
If you’re in a TD-heavy league (or maybe even if you’re not), Spann is a great option as he’s racked up 10 scores on the young season.

Joe McKnight (USC)
With Stafon Johnson out for the season, McKnight looks to have become the true focal point of the USC running attack.  He is still available in a number of leagues, and is worth picking up.

Harrison Jeffers (Texas Tech)
Only a consideration if you like to torture yourself with trying to figure out the Red Raiders offense.  Racked up 13 touches for 120 total yards and 4 touchdowns on Saturday.

Bernard Pierce (Temple)
Don’t be afraid to reach out for Pierce if you’re in a deep league.  He’s become the go-to RB for the Owls, rushing 45 times for 300 yards and 3 TDs over the past two games.  Ball State is up next.

WATCH LIST

A.J. Butler (New Mexico)
His continued success hinges on James Wright’s injury status.

Walter Kazee (San Diego State)
Kazee took advantage of injuries to Sullivan and Henderson to post a 22-110-1 statline on Saturday.

WIDE RECEIVERS

SOLID CONSIDERATIONS

Marshall Williams (Wake Forest)
Has accumulated 18 catches for 252 yards and 3 scores over his past two games against some pretty good defenses (BC and NC State).

James Cleveland (Houston)
The Iowa transfer is starting to light it up for the Cougs, posting 8-85-1 and 14-147-2 the past two weeks.  Just beware the possibility of “Red Raider Syndrome” whereby Case Keenum spreads it around each week, making the Houston WRs a guessing game at times.

Brandon Caleb & Cameron Kenney (Oklahoma)
With Ryan Broyles going down to injury (out 2-4 weeks), and Gresham already on the bench, somebody is going to have to catch all of those Sooner passes.  Caleb & Kenney figure to be the two best options.

WATCH LIST

Max Komar (Idaho)
Carlton Mitchell (USF)
Chad Bumphis (Mississippi State)
Briggs Orsbon (Ball State)
Tandon Doss (Indiana)
David Leonard (Wyoming)
Bert Reed (Florida State)

TIGHT ENDS

PICK ‘EM UP

Riar Green (Colorado)
Posted a 7-89-0 statline against West Virginia last week.  Should see plenty of targets at the Buffs figure to be playing from behind in most games.

Ladarius Green (UL-Lafayette)
Green has started to become a part of the ULL passing game, and should post good TE numbers in Sun Belt play.

OTHER CONSIDERATIONS

Darian Williams (Florida Atlantic)
Tom Burzine (Toledo)
Colin Peek (Alabama)
Dennis Morris (La Tech)

DEFENSES

Here are some good defensive options for this week:
North Carolina vs. Georgia Southern
Rutgers vs. Texas Southern
Miami(FL) vs. Florida A&M
