Fantasy Football Over and Under Achievers

 

Hello Fantasy Football Fans,

Here is the next installment of what will be a weekly rundown on who I think will over or under perform their weekly rankings from ESPN. So if you have a guy who is possibly injured and not 100% take a look at the lower ranked guys I think will do well and move them into your lineup. But if I mention a top player like Peterson it will be tough to have a guy who can even produce 50% of his output so as always take these thoughts and make the best decision. Last week was pretty rough with a 6-9 in the Underachievers and 4-5 in the Overachievers. Let’s get to the rankings;

Overachievers

Andy Dalton (22)-He has been solid and plays an awful Jaguar secondary

Mark Sanchez (12)-He gets to the Pats and with Holmes calling him out, I think he steps up on the road.

Eli Manning (10)-He is playing like a top QB1, Seattle is awful on the road, and this will get ugly.

Brandon Jacobs-(28)-I expect at least 1 TD.

Isaac Redman (24)-He will get all the snaps for Pitt and we should see a Ryan Matthews like game.

Jacoby Jones (27)-He should step in nicely for Andre Johnson with a solid game.

Aaron Hernandez (23)-He has practiced fully, get him back in your lineup.

Jared Cook (14)-He may be the #1 target with Britt out.

Underachievers

Matt Stafford (2)-The big deficits have helped his stats, I say the Bears pass defense slows down the Lions train.

Michael Turner (10)-The way to beat GB is through the air.

Frank Gore (12)-He had a nice 2nd half against the awful Eagle run defense, back to the grind.

Darren Sproles (15)-Yes he is involved but his scoring still has to be lucky.

Joseph Addai (18)-He has not shown to be a starting fantasy back.

Shonn Greene (23)-He has been awful, and the Pats are awful against the pass not withstanding what Rexy said he will do with the run this week.

Ben Tate (35)-Foster is now getting all the touches.

Knowshon Moreno (40)-He should be cut by fantasy owners; Lance Ball is getting more touches.

Wes Welker (2)-Yes you have to start him but Revis brings him back to earth and mortality.

Vincent Jackson (4)-He has barely practiced all week, a very shaky start.

Vernon Davis (4)- He has barely made a dent this year, don’t expect that to change against the tough Bucs.

Make sure you check your byes as the 1st group of 6 teams are off this week. That is it for this week; we will be back early next week for the weekly free agent pickups and feel free to follow me on Twitter-dvond for any fantasy questions.

Knowshown Moreno

He hasn’t been getting many touches because he hasn’t been able to stay healthy.

"When I got to Colorado, they just said go out and play your game, be the player that you can be, we're not going to put any restrictions on how you play. That gave me a big boost of confidence. That's something I lost in St. Louis." - Erik Johnson

The 2011-2012 Colorado Avalanche: there will be blood and there will be wins.

"God I'm excited for those two to fail miserably." - SBNation writer Andrew Sharp on Josh McDaniels and Tim Tebow.

The Number Zero, now in colour. DSB Record: 1-3-0

Sorry, I had the first name in bold because it's KNOWSHON.

Gronkowski's been my man, #1 at the position

with Hernandez back in some capacity, do I start Owen Daniels this week?

by DCRamFan on Oct 6, 2011 6:20 PM CDT reply actions  

i don't think you can really go wrong with either of those guys.

But I think Gronkowski has more upside, being that he has Tom Brady throwing to him, and the Pats D is god awful, so they have to put up a ton of points.

Two things about me will never change. I will always root for the Rams, and I will always root against the Niners.

Thank you, good sir

How about this one? Schaub (with Daniels as TE), or Eli Manning (with Manningham at WR)?

by DCRamFan on Oct 6, 2011 6:28 PM CDT up reply actions  

Lol, well I'm not pro

but Eli has been lighting it up the last 2 weeks, I think you have to start him against the Seahawks, cause they are terribad. I’m not to stoked on Manningham, because it seems like he’s starting to lose reps to Victor Cruz, who has more deep threat ability….. Start Eli, and Manningham if he’s your best option.

I am hoping I will DC

My daughter has softball but I hope to be home an hour before the games, if not I keep an eye in my Twitter when on the road

Mike I got a conundrum.

I need to pick a defense. It’s either Bucs vs San Fran, Chargers Vs Denver, or Texans Vs Raiders…… I can’t decide, but I kinda want to go with the bucs, because it would give me all the more reason to cheer against them.

(My choices are Bucs D, Chargers D, Texans D is that is unclear)
