BenJarvus Green-Ellis @ Broncos – Trusting Patriot running backs over the years has proved to be a frustrating situation for many fantasy owners over the years.

Michael Vick is expected back just in time for the fantasy playoffs to begin but will he perform as a worthy top ten play? On talent alone, Vick should be a no-brainer to use, but with Jeremy Maclin returning from an injury, and DeSean Jackson acting like he’s taking the season off, it’s hard to [...]
