Dillon was expected to fill the vacant Jamaal Williams role. In the last three weeks, that belief has come to fruition. His burgeoning role in the offense makes him a nice sleeper candidate to start against the Washington Football Team. Washington's shockingly bad defense has been even more shockingly bad against running backs recently. In the last four weeks, only the Jets have allowed more fantasy points per game to the position.
All hail Quadzilla! I had hopes that Marquez Callaway could be a sleeper this year. It took a few weeks but it's happening. He was a non-entity in Weeks 1 and 2. Since then, he's averaged 16 points per game including a He and the Saints return from the bye for a meeting with the Seahawks. If you haven't heard, the Seahawks defense is bad. That bodes well for anyone looking at starting Callaway this week.
As a bonus, if Tre'Quan Smith is available, he's a nice flyer. The Chiefs historically have been a concentrated passing game with Tyreek Hill and Travis Kelce dominating the targets. This year, Mecole Hardman has entered the chat. His 35 targets are more than halfway to the career-high he set last season.
While Kansas City's defense has been miserable, we still want as many parts of their passing game as possible. While I won't go so far as endorsing Flash this week against the Titans, I would recommend giving Hardman a try.
I'll keep banging the Amon-Ra St. Brown drum until it becomes untenable. Last week was a tale of good and bad with five catches yay! There are several quality wide receivers who have the week off, so this will be a chance to dive down your fantasy depth chart a little bit.
The matchup against the Rams isn't a good one, but St. Brown's growing target share means he's at least worth a look if you need help.
It would be wise to pick up Denard Robinson if you are a Yeldon fantasy owner. Though he generated some hoopla last week by practicing on an earlier timetable to return from injury, Ben Roethlisberger is going to miss this week's game. But it looks like he might be back sooner than initially thought. Injury updates courtesy of ESPN. Everyone is on Charcandrick West, who should take over as the main man after Jamaal Charles ' devastating knee injury. But don't sleep on once-backup Knile Davis.
Granted, there is a reason why West is expected to lead that backfield—he did replace Charles last week, after all—but Davis has shined once or twice in the past. He should also see playing time in a timeshare, unlike in the past when Charles hogged the action. Quarterback Carson Palmer hasn't looked his way a whole lot this season, but a matchup against the woeful Pittsburgh secondary could open his eyes to an open Floyd downfield on a few passing plays this week. The Kansas City Chiefs are giving up Having faced some tough quarterbacks hasn't helped, but that unit has left something to be desired.
Teddy Bridgewater takes them on at home coming off a bye, and his arsenal is getting healthy. He could be a sneaky bye-week fill-in. After the past couple of weeks, Gary Barnidge is never going into this part of the column again.
But his quarterback makes for a good subject here. McCown has been on a tear the past few weeks, but the going gets much tougher in Week 6. The Denver Broncos have allowed exactly three touchdowns in five games thus far this season. The pass rush combined with arguably the best secondary in the league has conspired to give opposing quarterback nightmares. Every week we'll take a look at one player from each position who you should be starting, looking beyond the obvious guys of course.
Except kickers. They don't belong in fantasy football. The Kansas City Chiefs are giving up the most fantasy points per game to quarterbacks—and wide receivers, incidentally—thus far this season. Teddy Bridgewater is next in line to pick apart that sieve of a secondary. True, Ameer Abdullah's fumbling issues may have sunk his Week 5 production, but don't jump off the bandwagon just yet. He's a young player, I don't think we banish him to the minors yet. You guys talk to him, he's a great kid, he's a smart player, he wants to do good.
He's everything you want character wise from a football player. So I think that you kind of trust that he's going to keep working on it and get better.
And listen, at some point if it continues to be a problem, certainly there may be some drastic steps have to be taken as far as limiting carries or those kinds of things.
But I think you've got to trust that he's going to get it fixed, at this point anyway. With Theo Riddick and Joique Bell banged up, Abdullah might find himself with a big workload his week. Plus you can't argue much with a matchup against the Chicago Bears.
Like many of his fantasy owners, you might be a bit frustrated by T. Hilton's production this season. With Andrew Luck still questionable coming off a shoulder injury and the New England Patriots out for blood this week, it'd be understandable if you benched the speedy wideout.
Whatever happens, this figures to be a high-scoring game on both ends. The Patriots might win , but the Colts are going to have to score those points somehow. A big game is on the horizon for Hilton. Thomas made his return from hand surgery last week, but he didn't benefit much from Blake Bortles' yard, four-touchdown performance.
Perhaps they needed to work on their rapport. The duo has had some more time to practice together, of course, but the better omen for Thomas' production is a Houston defense that hasn't been good against quality tight ends thus far. Granted, the Texans haven't given up much in recent weeks, but Brandon Myers, Levine Toilolo and a Colts pair with Matt Hasselbeck at quarterback aren't exactly tough matchups.
Stating this a year ago would have gotten me banished to the asylum. The painful truth of the matter is Denver's offense stinks right now. The offensive line isn't very good, Peyton Manning is showing his age, and points have been hard to come by for the Broncos. Every week we'll take a look at one player from each position who you should be sitting barring a lack of viable alternatives, looking beyond the obvious guys of course.
Every player eventually gets benched. It's happened to the greatest of them all. LaDainian Tomlinson. Randy Moss. Brett Favre. Father Time is undefeated, and he has conspired with Gary Kubiak to kill Peyton Manning's fantasy appeal. Of course now that he has been written up here, Manning is going to throw for yards and three touchdowns. There just isn't much reason to stick Stewart in fantasy lineups this week.
He hasn't been very productive, and he is facing a Seahawks defense buoyed by the 12th Man in Seattle. Things aren't going to be pretty for the Washington offense this week. Not only is the New York Jets defense tough, but Washington will be without its best offensive lineman with Trent Williams sidelined. Likely drawing the short straw to draw Darrelle Revis, Pierre Garcon is headed for a bad week. Even if garbage time comes early.
