Photo By: Brad Penner / US PRESSWIRE If you're in need of a bye week pickup at the tight end position it might be a good idea to target Jacob Tamme or Martellus Bennett. Tamme is fresh off a bye week and will be in a shootout of a game as the Saints come to Denver. Bennett on the other hand, will face his former team for the second time this season. The first time around Bennett scored a touchdown which was ...

Photo By: Dennis Wierzbicki / US PRESSWIRE Cam Newton and company don't seem to be happy about what's going on in Carolina's offense, and while I'm on their side, we have to be a little concerned about Newton's attitude throughout the season. Newton had success in Chicago last year, but that was early in the season and teams have clearly caught up to what the Panthers are doing on offense. We should see Chi ...

Photo By: Christopher Hanewinckel / US PRESSWIRE Those fantasy owners who picked up Nick Novak a few weeks back can breathe a sigh of relief as usual starter Nate Kaeding has been placed on injured reserve. For the second season in a row, Kaeding has had a lower leg issue that has cost him a majority of the season and Novak has been there to fill in. The Chargers have had some wild games of late but look fo ...

Photo By: Geoff Burke / US PRESSWIRE If you've normally started Robert Griffin in your lineup this year, hopefully you kept him in starting against the Vikings. His 76-yard touchdown was a big part of his fantasy day, but with 13 carries for 138 yards and two scores on the ground, Griffin proved he would run even after his concussion. What separates Griffin from Michael Vick is that he learned from his inju ...

Photo By: Cary Edmondson / US PRESSWIRE Ahmad Bradshaw was only he second running back to go over 100 yards in a game against the 49ers in San Francisco's last 44 contests. The other running back, Marshawn Lynch who did so late last season. Both running backs also found the end zone against the 49ers, which is also a tough thing to do. Watching the 49ers meltdown against the Giants on Sunday, it will be int ...

Photo By: James Lang / US PRESSWIRE Despite his drop on a key two-point conversion, Dez Bryant finally had the game we've been waiting for since his rookie season. On the day Bryant was targeted 15 times and hauled in 13 receptions for 95 yards and two touchdown scores. With Miles Austin still not looking like the receiver we remember before his hamstring problems started in September of last season, and De ...

Photo By: Debby Wong / US PRESSWIRE Colts rookie running back Vick Ballard was a buzz name player in fantasy circles late last week after the news that Donald Brown would be out a few weeks. What looked to be a terrific matchup for Ballard turned into a trap game for the Colts as they came into New York and faced a desperate but determined Jets team. Some will turn their backs on Ballard as an option this w ...

Photo By: Kyle Terada / US PRESSWIRE Coming off a big win against the Patriots, you know the Seahawks smell blood in the water down in the Bay Area after the 49ers pathetic performance against the Giants. Stop the run and force San Francisco to put the football in Alex Smith's hands, something Jim Harbaugh clearly doesn't want to do, based off of the coaching staff continued use of Colin Kaepernick even whe ...

Photo By: Brace Hemmelgarn / US PRESSWIRE It's been a good year for rookie kickers and Vikings Blair Walsh is one of them. It didn't appear we should expect much from Walsh coming into the season as Minnesota was projected to be one of the worst teams in football. Outside of last weeks meltdown the Vikings defense has played well and with Adrian Peterson coming back faster than many thought after his injury ...

Photo By: Joe Nicholson / US PRESSWIRE Working his way back from an ankle injury Aaron Hernandez availability was a question mark heading into the weekend. Hernandez played and while he only had 30 yards, he did pickup six receptions and a touchdown. With Hernandez in the lineup the Patriots have the flexibility to do more as an offense, setting up the two tight end looks they would prefer to run, instead o ...
