Top Fantasy Waiver Free Agents Week 9: Marvin Jones, Kenny Stills, Mike Tolbert, Andre Brown and James Starks Best Pickups

The fantasy football week is now ready to get set with the Seattle Seahawks winning on Monday night football and with a number of big games from players over the weekend, some of the best free agent waiver options around the league includes Marvin Jones, Kenny Stills, Mike Tolbert, Andre Brown and James Starks.

Marvin Jones is clearly the top pick up in all of the NFL, as he had the biggest game of the season for a wide receiver apart from Calvin Johnson going insane, as he had four touchdown receptions against the New York Jets in the blowout win on Sunday. Jones has helped the Bengals to get the biggest lead of any division leader in the AFC and now he looks as if he is a bonafide number two receiver for the Bengals alongside AJ Green, giving Andy Dalton two of the top young players at their position and now Jones looks ready to continue balling.

The Bengals gave a clinic to the Jets on Sunday and apart from what was going on down on the field, they also showed them what happens when a team drafts a quarterback and actually helps him develop, which is exactly what they did not do with Mark Sanchez. The Bengals had a young franchise quarterback in Andy Dalton, so what did they do over the years? Add talent and more talent and more playmakers in AJ Green, Jermaine Gresham, Marvin Jones, Tyler Eifert and Giovani Bernard, while the Jets didn't put anyone around Sanchez and took away playmakers expecting him to get better. That's why a team gets beat by 40 on Sunday.

Jones was huge part of that explosion on Sunday and it caps off a nice run for him this month, as he has played four games and made 17 catches for nearly 289 yards and six touchdowns. In October Jones has been fantastic and it is one of the reasons why the team has won four games in a row and is looking like a solid playoff team for the third straight season. Jones has been excellent the past four games, scoring six times and now he comes into next week after making eight catches on eight targets for 122 yards in the game and that came after another solid performance the previous week.

Kenny Stills is a top pick up and it's no surprise Drew Brees has found another target he likes, as he put four targets to him for three catches on Sunday and he finished the day with 129 yards and two touchdowns. After getting off to a slow start, Stills has come on of late with three touchdown catches in his past two games and he has over 160 yards with six catches over the past two weeks. Stills' speed makes him a nice deep target and in that offense, he should be able to pu up some numbers.

Two backs that are coming back into the lineup are Brown and Starks and both are excellent options for fantasy owners to pick up this week. Brown will not be back until the week after next since the Giants are on a bye, but he is a safe bet to get into the starting lineup once he returns.
