Week 7 – Flex Play Rankings
CLICK HERE FOR CURRENT WEEKLY FANTASY ADVICE
Brandon Lloyd @ Cowboys -
It’s a case of good news, bad news for Brandon Lloyd as the Rams traded for him on Monday. The good news is that he reunites with his old Head Coach Josh McDaniels and will play in the offensive system that gave him so much success a year ago. The bad news, is that quarterback Sam Bradford has a high ankle sprain and even if Bradford plays this week, he won’t have much time to work with Lloyd in practice.
All that said, I would still look to Lloyd as a WR-3 option this week as the Rams will be thrown the football often in Dallas, and because Lloyd understands the offensive scheme, he will be starting right away. Lloyd is clearly better than the other receivers on this team, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he leads the team in targets weekly.
Montario Hardesty vs Seahawks -
With Peyton Hillis all but announced out with a hamstring injury this week, Montario Hardesty will be the Browns main option in the running game. In years past fantasy owners would consider a matchup against the Seahawks an opportunity for a big day, but Seattle has a stout front line and give Hardesty problems.
That said, Hardesty is a talented running back, and with a full workload, I expect him to see over 20 touches as the Browns play this game at home. While Seattle played well in New York, they have a history of struggling on the road, so look for Cleveland to keep this game close, and that should make Hardesty a respectable flex play this week.
Maurice Morris vs Falcons –
Starting tail back Jahvid Best suffered another concussion against the 49ers, and issue that has been problematic dating back to his time in college. While it remains to be seen if Best will play this week, look to Maurice Morris as the starter should Best miss time. Morris is nothing more than a flex play this week, but he’s had success in the past, so if your desperate for help, get Morris on the lineup, should he start.
