Taking in to account that you can’t just bring in Brady for Brees, or Gore for Peterson, I am going to focus on who your should be dropping, the sleepers you can pick up and the players you might want to activate from your bench to play, for the rest of the season, this week, Tight Ends.
Tight End Changes
Looks like week three is going to be all about making changes at Tight End. I would avoid the Vikings Visanthe Shiancoe this week, he is up against the 49ers who have been brutal so far this season against TEs, if you can you might want to switch him for 49ers Vernon Davis, as the Vikings in contrast have allowed over 100 yards a game to TEs so far.
Another alternative is Dustin Keller of the Jets, they face the Titans who have allowed plenty of yards to the TE in the last couple of games. Another TE to avoid this week is Todd Heap, he had just 9 yards and one reception last week and that won’t get any better against the Browns, who shut down TEs every week, this season and last.
Injury list
Injuries wise, don’t forget that LT is out again for the Chargers, Hasselbeck will be replaced by Wallace in Seattle and McNabb is doubtful and Vick will play his first regular season game in a long time.
Week Two Wrap Up
I should wrap up with a quick look at my highlights from last week.
Titans RB Chris Johnson, just edged out Frank Gore, they both ran for around 200 yards and scored two TDs, but Johnson also received for 87yrs and a TD. Houston’s Matt Schaub was the week’s star QB throwing for four TDs and 357 yards.
At TE Dallas Clark of Indy was the standout with 183 yards and a TD, Andre Johnson was the best WR in week 2, 149 yards and two touchdowns.
