haha..so much for the best TE ever!

Best player ever at the position and being a fantasy stud are not the same thing, especially on a team that has so many options in the red zone.

Tell that to Gates

Gates is a stud as a receiver yes but he's not half the blocker that Witten is, he's pretty much a wide receiver playing tight end, like Vernon Davis and Martellus Bennett.

Knox should have a good day against Carolina if they can keep Collins upright, I know I cut him ASAP after that horrific performance against New York.

any chance Austin Collie will play Sunday?

I just traded Darren Mcfadden for Collie... and their both injured... lol

I think he may go in, Garcon is still hurt and Gonzalez is as well, Colts may be the thinnest team at receiver amongst the legitimate contenders right now.

I'd pick up White just in case.

[SleeperAgent]

At RB probably starting:
Jahvid Best
Adrian Peterson
(backup Peyton Hillis)

At WR probably starting:
Eddie Royal
Hakeem Nicks
Austin Collie (assuming he plays)
(Backups: Mark Clayton, Jeremy Maclin, Brandon Lloyd)

QB: Rivers over Sanchez
TE: Cooley over Keller
K: Nugent
DEF: ATL (will revert to Seahawks after this week)

I'd start Maclin over Royal, none of the Denver receivers will rack up a lot of points against Baltimore.

Shannon Sharpe was the best receiving tight end ever but he had average skills as a blocker, next question!

I would drop Henderson, the Saints' offense isn't what it was with the runningbacks banged up, plus like the Cowboys they have so many weapons that you never know which of them is going to go for 100+ yards and score.

Now which DB should I get... Charles Tillman (CHI) or Charles Godfrey (CAR)

I'd go with Godfrey, Tillman is a shell of his former self and will most likely get torched all season long.

i'd look at the WR matchups....denver is playing at baltimore, i dont see orton and that offense having a big day... and the rams are playing at detroit, i like clayton in that spot...claytons been bradfords top target all season.

Yup not sure why ESPN fantasy thinks Lloyd will have 13 points this week, will probably be 5 at the most, even if Denver has to throw to catch up since they have no running game.
