1. Mohamed Massaquoi WR CLE - Now that Braylon is in the land of the Jet, it appears that Derek Anderson has some good chemistry with this receiver. I don’t think he’ll catch 8 balls every week but he should be in line for 5-6 catches with the occasional break out game.
2. Rashard Mendenhall RB PIT - I didn’t see last week’s performance coming but he sure responded to the prior week’s healthy scratch. I think Willie parker should be back in a week or two but enjoy Rashard’s week schedule the next 2 weeks (@ DET, vs. CLE).
3. Jermichael Finley TE GB - He is smoking hot right now and has Rodgers eye. I know there have been plenty of surprises at TE this year but if you are an owner of Greg Olsen you may want to pick up his counterpart in Green Bay.
4. Sidney Rice WR MIN - I’m not 100% sold on this kid but he is getting good looks at the right time from Favre.
5. Sammy Morris RB NE - Somebody has to run the ball in Patriot land don’t they? Good news is that Sammy can catch when necessary as well.
Archive for October 10th, 2009Well, if I hadn’t have gone and got booted out in Week 2 of my survivor pool, I’d be feeling pretty good about my position. I’m 3-1 with my picks which isn’t really that impressive when all you have to do is pick a winner each week. Looking at week 5, a few games jump out as obvious choices; MIN @ STL, DAL @ KC, NYG vs. OAK, PHI vs. TB. As you know I’m not really in favor of road teams no matter the spread. For me that rules out the first two but I think MIN should be fine if you need to take a road team. I don’t trust DAL as they might even lose to KC. PHI should get by TB but they always have trouble against the Bucs for some reason. So, I’m taking the 16 point favorite NY Giants who I think will win big no matter who starts at QB for them. |
