Fantasy deja vu: going into week 7... LAST YEAR!

I was listening to a fantasy football podcast in the background while working here... just searched "week 7 waiver wire" on tunein.com... wasn't paying much attention -- until i heard something about "david wilson" being a SLEEPER -- then my mind was kinda blown...lol

Peep some of the similarities going into Week 7 of 2012, a lot of these updates are relevant for the same week this year lol

--=]>"with all the Michael Vick discussion, Eagles fans are clamoring for Nick Foles" (this time last year, they wanted him to have a shot -- this time this year, he played great in Vick's absence)

--=]>"Demarco Murray is hurt again" (haha! big surprise, but literally got hurt in week 6 last year and missed time -- got hurt week 6 this year, likely missing time again)

--=]>"Josh Gordon is really coming on and playing well with Weeden" (solid since he's been back this year, started performing around this time last year)

--=]> "of course Vincent Jackson does what he does down-field" (most points of this season in week 6 2013, 130% above his year-to-date average)

--=]>"Matt Cassel is playing again and might be able to help you in a pinch"... (he came back from injury this time last year)

--=]>"Josh Freeman is also a worthy QB to pickup on the waiver" (he had a good week 6 last year -- but Cassel has been playing on Min while Freeman learns the playbook - so both observations made sense for this year)

--=]>"Blount can still have value any given week" (um, i guess lol)

--=]>"Jonathon Stewart is a sleeper many could be sleeping on" (he has been out but is coming back soon, some still feel he is going to outperform D. Williams this year)

--=]> "Steven Jackson is in a runningback by committee situation, so there is an jackson injury upside to the other RBs" (probably wont be the case once he's back in full on ATL, but still relevant enough lol)

--=]> "Consider Pierce, he's looked decent and Ray Rice can go down"

any given sunday... independent of the year i suppose lol.
