START Plaxico Burress, WR, Jets at Patriots. Burress has alternated good and bad outings, but actually out-ranks teammate Santonio Holmes in fantasy production thus far. Both are great starts this week.
BENCH Josh Freeman, QB, Buccaneers at Packers
START Isaac Redman, RB, Steelers vs. Titans. There’s a very good chance both Rashard Mendenhall (hamstring) and Mewelde Moore (ankle) will miss this game, leaving the Steelers’ backfield in Redman’s capable hands.
START Mark Ingram, RB, Saints at Panthers. In a week when six teams are on bye, your options are limited. Though the rookie is still sharing time with Pierre Thomas and Darren Sproles, Ingram is a good flex play against the second-worst rushing defens
START Julio Jones, WR, Falcons vs. Packers. With 17 receptions for 242 yards over the past two weeks, the highly touted rookie has been out-performing fellow wideout Roddy White. All he's missing is his first TD, which should come this week against the
START Josephy Addai, RB, Colts vs. Chiefs.
START A.J. Green, WR, Bengals
START Cam Newton, QB, Panthers vs. Saints.
START Cedric Benson, RB, Bengals vs. Jaguars
BENCH Eric Decker, WR, Broncos
START Ryan Fitzpatrick, QB, Bills vs. Eagles
START Fred Jackson, WR, Bills vs. Eagles
START Jonathan Stewart, RB, Panthers vs. Saints
START Jordy Nelson, WR, Packers
START Kevin Kolb, QB, Cards vs. Vikings
START Ryan Mathews, RB, Chargers vs. Broncos
START Mike Williams, WR, Bucs vs. 49ers
START Percy Harvin, WR, Vikings vs. Raiders
START Mark Sanchez, QB, Jets vs. Patriots
BENCH Stevie Johnson, WR, Bills at Dolphins. Johnson injured his shoulder last weekend, but is expected to suit up. Unfortunately, Ryan Fitzpatrick has been off his game lately.
BENCH Matt Hasselbeck, QB, Titans at Steelers. As he marches toward his Comeback Player of the Year award, Hasselbeck will encounter the occasional set-back. Heading into Pittsburgh to face-off with the league’s stingiest pass defense, this looks like o
BENCH Shonn Greene, RB, Jets at Patriots. Though Rex Ryan says he’s committed to running more, his tailbacks don’t seem to be cooperating. While the Patriots aren’t exactly impenetrable, Greene is hard to trust in a game that could easily become a shoot
BENCH Sidney Rice, WR, Seahawks at Giants. Rice has performed surprisingly well since returning in Week 3 from his shoulder injury. But he’ll face his stiffest test yet against a Giants secondary that has been playing very well of late.
BENCH Mario Manningham, WR, Giants vs. Seahawks. Though he is fully recovered from his concussion, he may have lost his starting job to Victor Cruz due to poor route running. If Eli Manning doesn’t trust him, you shouldn’t either.
BENCH Ben Roethlisberger, QB, Steelers.
BENCH BenJarvus Green-Ellis, RB, Pats vs. Jets
BENCH Chad Ochocinco, WR, Pats vs. Jets
BENCH DeAngelo Williams, RB, Panthers vs. Buccaneers. In three of his last four games, Williams has scored at least once and rushed for 61 or more yards. But he stunk it up in the other contest, in Tampa Bay.
BENCH Deion Branch, WR, Pats vs. Jets
START Denarius Moore, WR, Raiders vs. Vikings
BENCH Jay Cutler, QB, Bears vs. Lions
BENCH Kevin Walter, WR, Texans vs. Raiders
BENCH Knowshon Moreno, RB, Broncos vs. Chargers
BENCH Kyle Orton, QB, Broncos vs. Chargers
BENCH Tavaris Jackson, QB, Seahawks vs. Giants
