Fantasy Football Rankings Week 5
Hey everyone hope all is well, sorry for not posting my rankings until this late but since today was Yom Kippur I had a lot of commitments and didn’t have any time until this late. Result: Finally I nailed my bold prediction. Foster was a beast last week scoring a TD and having over 150 yards rushing. This Week’s Bold Prediction: Two Top 10 WRs, Stevie Johnson and Wes Welker, both get shut down by elite CBs having under 60 yards and 0 scores. Last Week’s Sleeper Picks: QB: Jason Campbell- Threw for over 340 yards but threw only 1 TD. Campbell had 15 points that isn’t a bad game by any means. Overall, I think this was a good sleeper for anyone who used him. RB: Arian Foster- Nailed it. I already discussed Foster above and how dominant he was last week. WR: David Nelson- Wrong. For all of my good calls, this had to be one of my worst. 2 catches for 18 yards on only 3 targets. Not sure what happened here and I'm curious to see how Nelson plays against the Eagles on Sunday. TE: Ed Dickson- While he may not have had the greatest game from a fantasy point of view I think this was an overall positive for Dickson. He was targeted 12 times and I look for him to have better games as the season progress. This Week’s Sleeper Picks: QB: Curtis Painter- I think he is a sneaky start this week. KC isn’t a very good pass D and Painter has played well in his first 2 starts and should score between 14-17 points. RB: Isaac Redman- I think Mendenhall sits out this week and Redman is a good waiver wire start. Tennessee doesn’t have a bad run defense so I don’t see Redman going off however I do see 80-90 yards and a TD making him a fine #2 or great flex. WR: Percy Harvin: He has been underwhelming so far fantasy wise scoring only once on a kick return. So while this may not seem like a sleeper I see him being benched in way too many leagues. Harvin has a great matchup against Arizona and I see him scoring not once but twice this week. TE: Clay Harbor: The past 2 weeks Buffalo has been killed by the TE giving up 180 yards and 3 scores. I think this game is a shootout and don’t be surprised if Harbor catches one of the TDs. Position by Position Rankings after the Jump

ill be honest i think youre way too low on jordy nelson
LeSean McCoy is the best thing to hit Philadelphia since Ben Franklin
I could be
My issue with him is that he is the teams 3/4th target so I think he is big play reliant and if they stop that he does very little.

Target and catch wise
He’s the #2 WR on the team, ahead of Driver and Jones

#2 WR
Yes but Finley gets more targets so I put him as the 3 passing option most plays.

Should I start McNabb or Big Ben?
Yeah, my QBs suck.

Picked up Matt Moore off the scrap heap since Henne is out for the season, but Miami has a BYE this week anyway. Here’s hoping he can do something.

I think its Greene or Starks and its not close
Between those 2 I like Starks more although I could see Greene finally breaking out against the Pats.

Wes isn't a top-10 WR - currently, he's the top player period
And a large part of Wes’ success is that he doesn’t line up on the outside, which forces slot corners to ‘cover’ him. Since he’s so damn squirrely, he doesn’t have a problem against the big lugs in the middle of the field.
Wes is a boss. And he’s my boss. So, naturally, I don’t see any less than 9-120-1 from him!
Wes is currently the top player and your right he doesnt usually line up outside but in the slot. I think however the Jets will put Revis on him and even some safety help over the top and force another WR to beat them.

Okay, one more tip, if you please.
Reggie Wayne or Denarius Moore.
Denarius Moore has a better average and has put up more points.
Most of moores points came in one huge breakout. Also it looks like they are trying hard to get Heyward-Bey and Jacoby Ford more involved. Painter keys on Wayne and KC is a terrible defense. Go Wayne.

TT said it best Moore had 1 huge game and then the past 2 weeks did nothing receiving except a garbage TD last week.
GO with Wayne

Two seperate leagues. Two seperate problems
Jermaine Gresham or Vernon Davis at TE and AJ Green, Stephan Ridley or Eric Decker for a Flex?
Davis and Decker
"It's a high snap, gets it away. It's a kunckler, Jackson takes it at the 35, picks it up, looks for running room, he's at the 40, he's at the 45, midfield, he's at the 40, he's gonna go, DeSEAN JACKSON, he's running around, and there are no flags, and the Eagles win, the Eagles WIN! THIS IS MIRACLE IN THE MEADOWLANDS NUM-BER TWO!!"

Mendenhall out?
In that case, Redman or Decker for the flex? I got Blount and Wells as my RB1/2 so Redman might be needed if Wells doesnt play?
Wells is going to play
and in that case I like Redman over Decker

Who to start question.
Hakeem Nicks, Jeremy Maclin, Lance Moore, and Sidney Rice.
IMO, I have to start Nicks and Maclin…so who sees the third WR spot between Lance Moore against Carolina or Sidney Rice against the Giants?
Why do people always think I'm playing the Race Card???
Is it because I'm black???
Yeah...
…I went ahead and changed it. But I don’t think it is a “no question”. Here are the reasons why:
A: NO’s passing attack and QB are light years better than their counterparts in Seattle.
B: Lance Moore led the team in TD’s last year and that was with Colston there. With him out, he will lead them in targets every week.
C: While the Giants cornerbacks are depleted, their safeties are still good. Rice is mostly a deep threat, which is something that can still be halted by good coverage over the top.
Why do people always think I'm playing the Race Card???
Is it because I'm black???
Rice
I think Seahawks get down early and throw a ton look for Rice to play very well.

It was someone named "packimopkiller"
And he had some lame picture up with 5 guys in speedos and shoulder pads and listed a bunch of people that it was supposed to be, of course including packimop, W_E, and some others.
When I replied, the response went to the bottom of this page instead of under his comment and I thought I had hit the wrong reply button…then I refreshed and his comment and both of mine were gone! lmao

What can I say?
I got a lot of fans.
Defensive player of the year for 2011 is...
Wild_Eagle!
Yes, Wild_Eagle's infamous reputation did help him get this award. But he shows that he walks the talk that he serves...with his keyboard. Wild_Eagle protects the motherland (BGN) from the evils of noobs, douche-bags, and other assholes. Although he may be crude and unnecessary, all great defenders draws the yellow flag from time to time.

My receivers: Bowe, M. Williams (TB), Garcon, and Jacoby Jones.
Bowe and Williams are my go to but they’ve been patchy. With Andre down I kinda like Jacoby…..and Pierre also has a good matchup.
Which 2?
If you dont like Big Red, then F#%@ You!
-Ricky Bobby
by GreenInBaltimore on Oct 9, 2011 9:29 AM EDT via mobile reply actions
Wow, tough
Definitely Bowe, probably Williams. You could sub Pierre in for Mike but I’d stay away from Jacoby… he’s had success in the past but I see Shaub going to Owen Daniels and riding his RBs to supplement the loss of Andre. I can see why it’s tempting but if it were me, I wouldnt.
To summarize, Definitely Dwayne Bowe, should go with Mike Williams but if you subbed Pierre for Mike I don’t think you’d be too upset. It’s hard to know how well Curtis Painter’s going to play.

Sorry, more thoughts
Bowe’s been solid after Week 1 and Williams only had that Week 2 flop.

LeSean McCoy is the best thing to hit Philadelphia since Ben Franklin
Disagree with Ralf E chubbs
I think its very close between Starks and Redman. Redman may more upside but Starks is more consistent depends what you need this week.

nah… I’m not going to troll you… last week was just something that stood out to me, and only because I autodrafted Reggie in a league I’m playing in and kill myself over whether or not to use him every week.
As a caveat, I think it’s make or break this week for McNabb and I think he outperforms at least one QB on your list ^

Mendenhall's out, Redman's got 5 yds/carry
Starks will split evenly the carries with Grant.
That’s how I see it.

i have the green bay defense but im hearing this weeks game is supposed to be a shoot out against falcons. im leaning towards picking up the bengals defense this week vs the jaguars any thoughts
"Buddy doesn't have many rules but one of them is don't lose to the Cowboys."
i'd go Cinci

Flex (1 Start): leftovers from the above

Harvin's been doing well for me.
He’s constantly putting up 10-15 pts a week (except week 1) because he’s been running, returning and receiving.
