Desperate for Week 17 help!!

We combine the scores from Week 16 and Week 17 in our championship game. Right now I'm down 16, so I think I've got a chance. All my guys tanked last week: Kitna, Chris Johnson, RunDMC, Megatron, Kevin Boss -- 21 points from those guys combined.

Okay, so I need to start with a QB. Got some pretty good choices on waivers. Any input is truly appreciated and if I win I'll buy everyone a shot of the good stuff

QBs on waivers:
Cutler @ Green Bay
Bradford @ Seattle
Shaun Hill vs Minnesota (and I've got Megatron - could be a good choice for double points)
Kerry Collins @ Indy
Kevin Kolb vs Dallas (interesting here as the guy I'm playing has Maclin)
Rex Grossman (sure, he's Rex Grossman, but he could put up some numbers against the Giants - everyone else does)

Of course there are some other longshots, but I need a guaranteed 20 point guy and the above are probably the only ones with a shot.

Thoughts? Input? Suggestions?

ooooo... how about Trent Edwards? He's starting for Jacksonville in a must win. Of course Tennessee would have to win too to help out the Jags, but Del Rio fate may be better if they have a winning season.

Bradford or kolb. Bradford in a must win against horrible Seattle defense. Kolb alway plays hard, and should light up an awful Dallas D

Worried about Seattle @ home. Think they win that. Bradford hasn't been that great, but woke up a little last week. Kolb makes sense, but how long do they play good receivers? And Dallas would love to win that.

I like the way Detroit plays. They got nothing to play for, but imagine that franchise winning it's last 4? Really thinking Shaun Hill is the play here.

Pretty much a crap shoot anyway.

Here's part of the plan. It is a bit of a bitch move, but I gotta do it.

I'm getting Owen Daniels off waivers tonight unless some other dickhead picks him up (I've got position on my opponent). I already got Jacoby Jones last week. He'll start this week. Opponent has Schaub, so if AJ doesn't go, Schaub pretty much won't hurt me.

I don't know if megatron is playing this week it could hurt him if he doesn't.

New plan. Some dickhead ahead of me in waivers picked up Shaun Hill. That sucks. Nothing to play for and he's still playing.

Okay, so I picked up Kolb and Avant. I also nabbed James Jones and John Kuhn.

Is Kolb/Avant feasible? I need some points!!

I would use Kolb but not Avant unless you have to. I would pick up Burleson if available and use him.

Thanks for the input Hodgee. Megatron not practicing again today worries me, and ESPN projects him for only 4 fantasy points (not that their projections are all that good).

Thinking of playing Jerome Simpson, James Jones, and Jacoby Jones as my 3 WRs.

I have 2 RBs that I'm pretty worried about too in Chris Johnson and Mendenhall.
