Pro and College Fantasy Football | The Week Ahead

Wednesday, November 16th, 2011

Hi all,

 

As we did last week, here is a list of players who should be benched, and options to replace them for your fantasy football games. On the college side, I offer up two names that will perform in a big way this week.

PLAY NOW –> FANTASY FOOTBALL GUARANTEED CASH TOURNAMENTS

Quarterback: Rookie Andy Dalton has taken the league by storm, putting his Bengals in the midst of a playoff battle. But a match up against the Ravens, who are coming off a loss, is the last thing his fantasy owners want. A hobbled AJ Green doesn’t help. Start Sam Bradford instead, as his match up against the Seahawks is a favorable one. The Seahawks will load the box, and Bradford will have single coverage to exploit all day.

Running Back: Beanie Wells is a solid running back, but not in week 11. It is time to respect what San Francisco is doing, and that’s physically imposing their will on opposing offenses. Wells should be benched in all formats, as he doesn’t stand a chance. Instead, look at the backfield in Detroit. Keep an eye on the starter, but as of now, Maurice Morris is the player to have. Whoever is slated to get the bulk of the carries in Motown should feast on the Panthers pathetic run D.

Wide Receiver: The Giants pass game has been efficient, especially of late, but I expect the Eagles to shut it down this weekend. Philly has shown signs of greatness in big games (recall the Cowboys game in prime time), and this week we will see it again. Hakeem Nicks is still a decent play, but I’m benching Manningham and Cruz this week. Turn back to that 49ers team if you want a better option, as Michael Crabtree will find breathing room against a porous Cardinals secondary.

College Fantasy Football Games Start Thursday at 8PM ET at Fantazzle

Arkansas is slowly creeping into the BCS picture, and the string of impressive performances figures to continue this week against Mississippi State. RB Dennis Johnson is my pick to click for the Razorbacks, as Mississippi State has been pounded by elite teams this season. Alabama (43 carries for 223 yards) and LSU (35-157) were relentless on the ground, and won because of it.

Casey Pachall and his Horned Frog teammates were the team of week 11, and figure to carry the momentum into Saturday’s game against Colorado State. Pachall led TCU to an upset victory over Boise State by passing for 473 yards and 5 scores. Colorado State isn’t half the team Boise State is, as they surrender over 30 points per game. Pachall’s passing performance wasn’t a fluke, the kid can play.

 

Have a great week,

2011 Fantasy Football Preview: Week 10

Wednesday, November 9th, 2011

Every week you face tough decisions in your lineup. Here are some suggestions for which players to sit and what players you can replace them with. Weekly fantasy football participants want the best value for their players, and this list will help guide you.

Quarterback: Jay Cutler takes on the Lions, who had him running for his life last meeting. While he played well (249 yards and a TD), success when running for your life isn’t consistent. Replace Cutler with Matt Cassell, who faces the Broncos. Denver gives up the second most points to opposing QB’s and doesn’t apply a ton of pressure.

Running Back: Cedric Benson seems to always produce just enough to justify starting him, but not this week against a Steelers defense that will bounce back off of last weeks loss to the Ravens. Instead, lean on Chris Ogbonnaya of Cleveland. He disappointed last week, but injuries have forced him to carry the load, and the Rams surrender the second most fantasy points to RB’s.

Wide Receiver: Sidney Rice is the Seahawks top threat and figures to be the target of the Ravens defense. Rice doesn’t have a reliable second option playing beside him and the QB play has been erratic in Seattle. A better option is Laurent Robinson, who has an increasing workload due to the Miles Austin injury. Dez Bryant will be the focus with Robinson benefiting from single coverage.

Tight End: The Houston Texans rank third in the NFL in stopping opposing TE’s, making Kellen Winslow a weak option. I prefer Brent Celek this week as the Eagles TE has 14 catches the past two weeks and is becoming more involved.

As far as college football is concerned this week, here are three players to keep an eye on for College Fantasy Football Salary Cap games. They aren’t household names, but that doesn’t mean that can’t help your fantasy squad.

Blaine Gautier (Louisiana-Lafayette QB) – He is tenth in the nation in passing efficiency (159.3 rating) and boasts a 17 to 2 touchdown to interception ratio. In a huge game in the Sun Belt conference, I expect Gautier to light up Arkansas State.

Henry Josey (Missouri RB) – The sophomore leads the country in yards per rush (8.6) and is even better than that coming off of a loss. Josey averages 16 carries for 152 yards and 1.5 TD’s when his Tigers lost the previous week.

Kenny Stills (Oklahoma WR) – Already a solid option (41 catches for 610 yards and 8 scores), Stills will be the Sooners top target after the loss of Ryan Broyles to a torn ACL. Oklahoma squares off against Baylor this weekend, a team that allows 36.8 points per game.

Bargain Searching this weekend

Saturday, November 5th, 2011

Fantasy game are as much about value as they are talent. Here are three pros and three preps who figure to outperform their current price tag.Remember, the Fantasy Football Freeroll presented by Scorebig.com is now available to enter for free and is awarding over $200 in prizes!

NFL

Shonn Greene – The Jets commitment to the ground game (63 carries for Greene in his last three games) will pay big dividends in Buffalo this week. The Jets have a chance to win this game if they control the clock, so expect another 20+ carries from Greene. With The Bills rank in the bottom half of the NFL in running points against, making Greene my sixth ranked RB for week nine.

Michael Bush – With Darren McFadden (foot) out of action this week, Bush finds himself in my top 10 RB’s. A very strong back in the red zone will get the bulk of the carries for a team with question marks in the passing game. The Raiders figure to dominate, and thus rely on Bush to take the air out of the football.

Julio Jones – His return from a hamstring injury couldn’t come at a better time, it’s Colts week for the Falcons. Jones is far too athletic for the Colts secondary, and should see single coverage as the Colts focus on Roddy White and Tony Gonzalez.

NCAA College Fantasy Football Salary Cap games

Zach Line – The junior RB for the Southern Methodist Mustangs is matched up a Tulane defense that surrenders 35 points per game. Line is sixth in division one with 14 rushing TD’s and averages 6 yards per carry.

Stephen Hill – The nation’s leader in yards per catch (30.4) is a great bet when filling out your roster. One of every five catches for Hill winds up in six points, so he needs very few targets to make noise.

Nick Foles – Senior QB’s at home are always favorable, especially when that QB throws more than all but one division one QB. His Wildcats battle a Utah team that was gashed by a much less efficient pass game in Brock Osweiler and the Arizona State Sun Devils.

2011 Fantasy Football: Week 7

Tuesday, October 25th, 2011

The 2011 Fantasy football season continues to roll on. Drew Brees had a monster day on Sunday, throwing for 31 completions, 325 yards and 5 touchdowns. TE Jimmy Graham had another big outing, catching 2 of those touchdowns. Marques Colston had 2 touchdown catches himself as the Saints offense just continues to roll. Anyone playing Fantazzle’s weekly fantasy football salary cap games should pick any of these 3 Saints players when setting their lineups for the week. They seem to be producing great fantasy numbers at a consistent clip right now, so pick them with confidence!

Many fantasy leagues out there have byes weeks to deal with. If you started Tim Tebow at quarterback like I did for the week because of bye’s, then you were rewarded. Tebow started the game of slow, but wound up bringing the Broncos back for a win and finished the day with a solid fantasy effort. He threw for 161 yards, 2 touchdowns, a 2-pt conversion and 65 rushing yards; not bad for a bye week fill in. Demaryius Thomas, who was a hot waiver wire pick up this week with Brandon Lloyd being traded to St. Louis, salvaged his day with a touchdown catch late in the comeback win, so I guess he panned out.

DeMarco Murray also had himself one of the biggest fantasy days in week 7 rushing for 253 yards and a touchdown! That was a new Cowboys single game record. Felix Jones may have to miss some more time with that performance from Murray. I’d like to see another big game from Murray however, before I start recommending him for your weekly fantasy football games.

Moving on to injuries, Tim Hightower left the game after piling up 88 yards on the ground with a left knee injury. It looked pretty significant and he was carted off the field. If you haven’t already, grab Roy Helu and Ryan Torain. Percy Harvin also left his game early after re-aggravating his rib cage area. Hopefully, he can play next week with Chris Ponder looking formidable behind center. And in a surprising move, Joseph Addai was able to play at the last second. Most people thought he would sit out this week, but Addai ended up trying to give it a go. It wasn’t much of a go as he totaled 2 catches for 11 yards and rushed for only 8 more! The Indy backfield is just a mess.
