With baseball season officially brought to a close with the Philadelphia Phillies being crowned World Series Champions, it's all about football now. Yes, the NBA is under way and hockey has started, but really those season's are so long, these first couple of months don't matter. But, as you've already learned, every week of the football season is an important one. With that in mind, the Bruno Boys continue to provide you with the best fantasy football information found on the web. Don't believe us? Well, just read through the Bruno Boys Fantasy Football Week 9 Wide Receiver Rankings, and we think you'll change your tone.
--------------------
1. Larry Fitzgerald (Arizona Cardinals) @ St. Louis
From a fantasy football perspective there isn't a wide receiver in football as steady as Fitzgerald. He has at least nine fantasy points in every game this year, has scored a touchdown in four different games and his 43 receptions are tied for 6th overall in the NFL. Plus, Fitzgerald is known for posting big games against the Rams (8 career TD's in eight games) and with Kurt Warner playing his best football since 2001 nothing will change here. Expect just another ordinary game from Fitzgerald, which is usually good for around 16-19 fantasy points.
Point Projection: 19 points
--------------------
2. Roddy White (Atlanta Falcons) @ Oakland
"Hot Rod" Roddy White as we like to call him has been on fire of late. He has 59 fantasy points in standard leagues over the past three games and has turned into quarterback Matt Ryan's main threat. The Raiders are a better defensive team at home, but you can expect Ryan to rely on his playmaker all afternoon. Even if Raiders cover cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha is known for locking down opposing wide outs the Bruno Boys feel White will get the best of him.
Point Projection: 18 points
--------------------
3. Andre Johnson (Houston Texans) @ Minnesota
After a slow start many people panicked and traded Johnson. Imagine how they feel now, as the sixth year veteran has 70 fantasy points over the last four games and is showing no signs of slowing down. With the Texans offense turning into a juggernut over the last five games it looks as if even a stout Vikings defense will have trouble containing the Texans and their superstar.
Point Projection: 18 points
--------------------
4. Brandon Marshall (Denver Broncos) vs. Miami
Marshall hasn't scored since Week 4 but is still averaging 99.7 yards per game. Needs to get back on track and has a ncie matchup against the Dolphins, who rank 25th in the NFL against the pass. The Broncos offense has struggled over the past month, so the bye week should have helped them make adjustments and we fully expect them to come off the bye week clicking. As always, Marshall is a must start.
Point Projection: 17 points
--------------------
5. Anquan Boldin (Arizona Cardinals) @ St. Louis
Boldin missed two games due to multiple injuries after getting knocked out in week 4, but last week he came back with a venegence. He scored twice, had 63 receiving yards and saw 12 targets from quarterback Kurt Warner. You know the Cardinals will be throwing early and often in this game, so you can expect Boldin to build on his league leading seven touchdown receptions.
Point Projection: 16 points
--------------------
6. Lee Evans (Buffalo Bills) vs. New York Jets
Now this is what the Buffalo Bills expected when they drafted him 13th overall in 2004. The speedster has 17 receptions for 305 receiving yards and two touchdowns over the last three weeks. Plus, his 15 receptions since week 7 makes us believe that the Bills are starting to use him more as a possesion receiver. The Jets allow 232 passing yards per contest and 23 receptions per game to thier opponents, so you can expect another stellar game from Evans.
Point Projection: 16 points
--------------------
7. Reggie Wayne (Indianapolis Colts) vs. New England
Wayne has just 53 receiving yards since week 7 and there is no doubt in our mind that he will approach the century mark and score a touchdown in this game. As we saw last week, the Patriots defense is vunerable over the top, so you better believe Peyton Manning will be looking for Wayne downfield this week. Plus, if the Colts get Joseph Addai back it should lead to defenses needing to equally focus on the rushing attack.
Point Projection: 15 points
--------------------
8. Bernard Berrian (Minnesota Vikings) vs. Houston
Before the bye week, Berrian had 14+ fantasy points in three straight games and was playing his way into a solid WR1 option. In our opinion the Vikings week 8 bye couldn't have come at a worse time for Berrian and his owners, but luckily his matchup is against a Texans defense that allows 26 points per game. Expect a shootout and expect Berrian to continue his quest of earning every penny the Vikings pay him.
Point Projection: 14 points
--------------------
9. Randy Moss (New England Patriots) @ Indianapolis
As Matt Cassel begins to produce, so do the statistics of Randy Moss. He had two touchdowns in week 7, 102 receiving yards in week 8 and was targeted 11 times last week. It's no secret that the Colts have one of the best pass defenses in football, but Moss has scored a touchdown in both career meetings versus Indianapolis and we get the feeling that his hot streak will continue in week 9.
Point Projection: 13 points
--------------------
10. Plaxico Burress (New York Giants) vs. Dallas
Burress has been a huge distraction the the New York Giants but through it all this team continues to win football games. With Giants quarterback Eli Manning having thrown seven passing touchdown over the last three games against Dallas we like Burress in this matchup. The Cowboys secondary is banged up and incase you forgot Burress torched the Cowboys for a 144 receiving yards and three touchdowns in a single game last year.
Point Projection: 13 points
--------------------
11. Hines Ward (Pittsburgh Steelers) @ Washington
With the Steelers passing game being quite jekkyl & hyde Ward has been the only stable option in a mediocre passing game. He probably isn't going to have many one hundred yard games, but his owners have no problem with the 60-70 yards and a touchdown he usually produces each week.
Point Projection: 13 points
--------------------
12. Greg Jennings (Green Bay Packers) @ Tennessee
After watching Tennessee shut down the outside of the field and contain Reggie Wayne in Week 8 you can expect much of the same here. Jennings might not have a big yardage day, but he very well could bail out his owners with a touchdown reception. Plus, he has been a top five wide receiver in football this year, so you must start him if you own him.
Point Projection: 12 points
--------------------
13. Calvin Johnson (Detroit Lions) @ Chicago
All the doubters have been silenced that Johnson couldn't produce without Jon Kitna and Roy Williams. The physical wide receiver has scored in three straight games despite seeing multiple double teams and few targets. The Bears have contained Johnson in two previous meetings, but don't be shocked if he greets the 29th ranked pass defense with a touchdown.
Point Projection: 12 points
--------------------
14. Laveranues Coles (New York Jets) @ Buffalo
At the very least Coles has turned into a reliable receiver who will get you between 5-7 fantasy points and when he scores a touchdown he usually has a double digit performance. Last week he scored for the third time in five weeks and we feel Brett Favre finds him for his team leading 6th touchdown this week.
Point Projection: 12 points
--------------------
15. Donnie Avery (St. Louis Rams) vs. Arizona
Alright, alright, Donnie Avery made us look pathetic last week. We told owners to be aware of a one game wonder and the rookie had 17 fantasy points before halftime. This week, the matchup is favorable as the Cardinals secondary has allowed 14 passing touchdowns on the season and don't have the personnel to keep up with the speedster.
Point Projection: 12 points
--------------------
16. DeSean Jackson (Philadelphia Eagles) @ Seattle
With McNabb taking the cake as our top quarterback for the week we feel DJax will be his go to receiver. With Curtis back it will force defenses to contain him, and open up the door for Jackson to be on the receiving end of a home run ball. Plus, the Seahawks secondary is ripe right now having allowed big passing plays to the the 49ers last week.
Point Projection: 12 points
--------------------
17. Terrell Owens (Dallas Cowboys) @ New York Giants
Owens has just 11 receptions for 100 receiving yards over the past three games and quarterback Brad Johnson can't get him the football. To make things worse, the Giants swarming secondary allows a measly 185 passing yards per game, but with his recent success against New York we think T.O. might find paydirt for the first time since week 5. Or else we might see yet another epic episode of T.O. blowing up.
Point Projection: 11 points
--------------------
18. T.J. Houshmandzdeh (Cincinnati Bengals) vs. Jacksonville
The crazy thing behind Houshmandzadeh's recent struggles is that he has 29 receptions in four games with Ryan Fitzpatrick at quarterback but zero touchdowns. In fact, he hasnt scored since week 5 (two touchdowns), but with the Jaguars allowing 12 passing touchdowns in seven games, you have to like his chances. Continue to play Housh on a weekly basis because he continues to get you 5+ fantasy points.
Point Projection: 11 points
--------------------
19. Jerricho Cotchery (New York Jets) @ Buffalo
With the eradic play of Brett Favre, It's been tough to predict the value of any Jets receivers recently. For instance, Cotchery went from a one reception for 0 yard day in week 7 to a nine reception for 102 receiving yard showing in week 8. In our opinion you beat Buffalo through the air which means Cotchery should have two striaght weeks of solid RB2 production.
Point Projection: 10 points
--------------------
20. Kevin Curtis (Philadelphia Eagles) @ Seattle
After missing the first seven weeks because of sports hernia surgery, Curtis returned in week 8 and had 45 receiving yards on three receptions. Not great numbers but a good starting point for a wide receiver who should have a big second half of the season. Seattle ranks 30th in the NFL against the pass so you can expect Curtis to be a major factor in the Eagles offense.
Point Projection: 10 points
--------------------
21. Santana Moss (Washington Redskins) vs. Pittsburgh **QUESTIONABLE**
Despite a tight hamstring Moss is expected to play on Monday Night but we don't like this matchup. Through eight weeks Moss is the top rated fantasy wide receiver in standard scoring leagues but this will be his toughest test to date. The Steelers allow just 164 passing yards per game and have done a number on opposing teams top rated wide outs this year. Start him but don't expect much.
Point Projection: 9 points
--------------------
22. Antonio Bryant (Tampa Bay Buccaneers) @ Kansas City
Believe it or not Bryant has been pleasant surprise for those who snagged him off the waiver wire. His 37 receptions rank tied for 8th in the NFC and even with the return of Joey Galloway he had six receptions last week. Something tells us that Bryant beats up a degressing Chiefs secondary and has 80-90 receiving yards this week.
Point Projection: 9 points
--------------------
23. Wes Welker (New England Patriots) @ Indianapolis
Welker is on pace for 110 receptions this season, which is just two shy of his 2007 total, but the fact that he has only found paydirt once makes him no more than a WR2. Still, it's his ability to hover around 6-8 fantasy points per game that makes him a reliable WR2. In week 9 he will get his yardage but don't expect Welker to score a touchdown this week, as the Colts have allowed just two passing TD's.
Point Projection: 8 points
--------------------
24. Dwayne Bowe (Kansas City Chiefs) vs. Tampa Bay
In the offseason we suggested you target Bowe because of his consistency and he has lived up to the expectations thus far. He has at least eight fantasy points in all but one game this season and his 74 targets trail only Andre Johnson. Regardless of the quarterback in Kansas City, start Bowe as a top tier WR3 or flex option.
Point Projection: 8 points
--------------------
25. Eddie Royal (Denver Broncos) vs. Miami
Returning from an ankle injury Royal had nine receptions in week 7 and looks to continue his consistent ways against the Dolphins, who are allowing 246 yards per game to the wide receiver position. Royal should hover around 70-80 receiving yards and if he can find paydirt, will finish the week as a top 10 option.
Point Projection: 8 points
--------------------
26. Kevin Walter (Houston Texans) @ Minnesota
In week 8 Walter delighted his owners with two touchdowns and 19 fantasy points in standard scoring leagues. Minnesota has allowed just six passing touchdowns in 7 games but with the Texans offense riding a high you should employee Walter in your starting roster this wee.
Point Projection: 7 points
--------------------
27. Steve Breaston (Arizona Cardinals) @ St. Louis
Over the past month Breaston has been one of the best receivers in football, having hauled in 33 receptions for 392 yards and a touchdown. Even with the return of Anquan Boldin in week 8, the second year receiver had nine receptions and was targeted 14 times by quarterback Kurt Warner. With the Cardinals continuing to air it out, Breaston acts as a solid WR3.
Point Projection: 7 points
--------------------
28. Braylon Edwards (Cleveland Browns) vs. Baltimore
Staff writer Jesse Burkhart called Edwards one of the biggest early round bust of the 2008 fantasy season thus far and I'm going to have to agree with him. He has scored double digit fantasy points in just one game and is averaging just three receptions per contest. Now Edwards takes on a Ravens defense that ranks 3rd in the NFL against the pass. Use him as a WR3 at best.
Point Projection: 6 points
--------------------
29. Santonio Holmes (Pittsburgh Steelers) @ Washington
After getting busted for possesion of marijuana Holmes was suspended by the Steelers in week 8. Head coach Mike Tomlin confirmed he will be back in action this week but he is facing a possible suspension from the NFL down the road. The matchup against Washington isn't ideal but Holmes is a playmaker and should be considered as a WR even if Nate Washington has been the deep ball threat over the past month.
Point Projection: 6 points
--------------------
30. Nate Washington (Pittsburgh Steelers) @ Washington
Even before Santonio Holmes was suspended last week Washington was surging. He has scored a touchdown in each of his last three games and in those games has at least once catch over 45 yards. His big play ability makes him a solid option as a WR3 or Flex play, especially with Big Ben looking his way downfield.
Point Projection: 6 points
--------------------
31. Marvin Harrison (Indianapolis Colts) vs. New England
On again off again Harrison was once again off in week 8. With the Patriots defense allowing over 300 yards passing in week 8 and being suspect to the big play don't be surprised if Harrison gets free at least once. Still, can you trust playing him and his 23 receiving yards since week 7?
Point Projection: 6 points
--------------------
32. Derrick Mason (Baltimore Ravens) @ Cleveland
Mason was sick with the flu last week and it led to a sluggish outing from the usually reliable owner. He finished with just three receiving yards and a big fat goose egg of points for his fantasy owners. The Browns pass defense is solid, but Mason averages right around 70 receiving yards per game against Cleveland, so we project him to reach his average. Also, the veteran has more value in PPR leagues.
Point Projection: 6 points
--------------------
33. Bobby Wade (Minnesota Vikings) vs. Houston
If you are looking for a solid 6-8 point option out of your WR3 the choice is Wade. Since taking over the starting spot in week 4, the possesion wide receiver has 24 receptions for 270 receiving yards. The only thing missing from those stellar numbers is a touchdown reception. Still looking for his first of the season, Wade should have no trouble reaching 65-75 receiving yards against the Texans, but he will have to wait another week to find paydirt.
Point Projection: 6 points
--------------------
34. Donald Driver (Green Bay Packers) @ Tennessee
It's obvious that Driver is on the final stages of a great career but something tells us that he could surprise this week. We wouldn't play him any higher than a WR3 or Flex option, but he should have some value catching intermediate routes over the middle of the field, while the Titans attempt to shutdown Greg Jennings.
Point Projection: 6 points
--------------------
35. Ted Ginn Jr. (Miami Dolphins) @ Denver
Perhaps his week 8 showing was what the Dolphins expected out of Ginn Jr. when they drafted him in 9th overall in 2007, as the speedy wide receiver finished with 175 receiving yards. His career day lead to a Miami victory and many owners snagging him off of their weekly waiver wire. If you're expecting anything close to a repeat out of Ginn Jr, keep on dreaming. However, the Broncos do allow 240 passing yards per game, thus giving Ginn Jr. the chance of having another solid yardage day.
Point Projection: 6 points
--------------------
36. Chad Johnson (Cincinnati Bengals) vs. Jacksonville
After scoring a touchdown in week 7, Chad Ocho Stinko was back to his normal ways last week. He does have 18 receptions over the last three games, but with Ryan Fitzpatrick failing to throw the ball downfield he has just 153 receiving yards to show for it. We've said it before and we will say it again, with Fitzpatrick under center the Bengals receiver have little fantasy value, unless they sneaky in a touchdown.
Point Projection: 5 points
--------------------
37. Torry Holt (St. Louis Rams) vs. Arizona
Many people are wondering if it's time to cut bait with Holt and if he doesn't produce this week the time might be now. Despite having 47 targets, Holt has just 26 receptions and is averaging a paltry 41 yards per game. He has had some big games against the Cardinals in his career, so if he doesn't get healthy this week e never will.
Point Projection: 5 points
--------------------
38. Greg Camarillo (Miami Dolphins) @ Denver
In our opinion, Camarillo is so close to be a weekly option, but until he starts becoming a factor in the red zone he is nothing more than a spot receiver. Though, he had 8 targets in week 8 and his a favorable matchup against Denver, who ranks 28th against the pass.
Point Projection: 5 points
--------------------
39. Steve Smith (New York Giants) vs. Dallas
Slowly but surely Smith is taking over as the WR2 in New York. He is on pace to haul in 66 receptions for around 685 receiving yards and if he can start finding the end zone he could be considered a solid WR3 by seasons end. Until that happens, consider him as a bye week fill-in, especially against a Cowboys team that the Giants passing game has excelled against over the last three meetings.
Point Projection: 5 points
--------------------
40. Joey Galloway (Tampa Bay Buccaneers) @ Kansas City
First things first, we would like to welcome back the aging veteran. In week 8 Galloway had just three receptions for 38 yards but the fact that he received six targets from quarterback Jeff Garcia is a sign of good things moving forward. With Tampa Bay expected to run early and often we wouldn't suggest using Galloway just yet. However, after a week 10 bye, the Buccaneers have Minnesota, Detroit and New Orleans on their schedule. Enjoy!
Point Projection: 5 points
--------------------
41. Devin Hester (Chicago Bears) vs. Detroit
Hester might be the best pure talent on the list and his transition into being a true wide receiver has been fun to watch. With the Lions allowing 258 passing yards per game and 12 touchdowns Hester should have plenty of chances to accumulate yardage. We project him to just be a yardage play in week 9, but if he is lucky enough to be on the receiving side of a Kyle Orton touchdow pass, chalk him up for double-digit fantasy points.
Point Projection: 5 points
--------------------
42. Bobby Engram (Seattle Seahawks) vs. Philadelphia
His 40 yards in week 8 were his second highest total since his return to the line-up. However, it's not going to get much better for Engram as long as Matt Hasselbeck remains sidelined. That at least appears to be one more week as it is highly unlikely Hasselbeck is cleared to face the Eagles. With Hasselbeck sidelined in real life, Engram should be sidelined in fantasy.
Point Projection: 5 points
--------------------
43. Brandon Lloyd (Chicago Bears) vs. Detroit **QUESTIONABLE**
Lloyd's already missed out on plenty of good match-ups (the Lions, Falcons, and Vikings) as he's dealt with a knee injury. With the Lions again on the dockett, Lloyd's owners are hoping the wide out has healed enough over the bye week to play. It'd be a shame if he missed another game against the 31st ranked pass defense of Detroit.
Point Projection: 5 points
--------------------
44. Brandon Stokley (Denver Broncos) vs. Miami
The Broncos passing game has dealt with its fair share of injuries of late, including Stokley. As a result, the passing game has sputtered. Stokley returns, meaning Cutler will be with his full wide receiving corp for the first time since week 5, and while that's good news for Cutler, it's not so great for Stokley as he's the low man of the three.
Point Projection: 5 points
--------------------
45. Reggie Williams (Jacksonville Jaguars) @ Cincinnati
With Matt Jones expected to miss the next three weeks due to a suspension Williams will act as the go-to wide receiver in Jacksonville. Williams scored his first touchdown of the season last week, and has the matchup to do so again against the Bengals, who have allowed 13 passing TD's already. He might not get you the yardage, but a touchdown coulod salvage his day.
Point Projection: 5 points
--------------------
46. Roy Williams (Dallas Cowboys) @ New York Giants
In his home debut Williams caught what proved to be the game winning touchdown reception for for the Cowboys. Still, the newly acquired wide out had just two receptions and was not targeted enough to have any value moving forward. Plus, the Giants rank 5th in the NFL against the pass, so you can only imagine what they will do to a Tony Romo-less Cowboy offense.
Point Projection: 4 points
--------------------
47. Chansi Stuckey (New York Jets) @ Buffalo
After scoring in each of the first three weeks of the season, Stuckey has failed to find pay dirt in each of the Jets last 4 games. That's left the rookie wideout and his owners to live on yardage alone. His 9 total points in those 4 games show the living isn't good.
Point Projection: 4 points
--------------------
48. Anthony Gonzalez (Indianapolis Colts) vs. New England
When Peyton Manning is going right, even the Colts' third wide receiver can have tremendous fantasy potential (Remember: Brandon Stokley). Unfortunately, Manning has more games with 1 or less TDs than games with 2 or more. As such, Gonzalez has just 32 points in 7 games this season.
Point Projection: 4 points
--------------------
49. Dennis Northcutt (Jacksonville Jaguars) @ Cincinnati
If the NFL suspends Matt Jones for three games as is expected, the competition for the role of David Garrard's favorite receivers becomes wide open. Northcut, who has emerged of late, with two straight 40 yard games, could very well be in the mix, though we'd wait and see how things developed before relying on him.
Point Projection: 4 points
--------------------
50. Michael Jenkins (Atlanta Falcons) @ Oakland
Jenkins has gone for at least 50+ yards in each of the Falcons last two games, and he should be able to get close to that total again in week 9 against the Oakland Raiders. Still, don't look for much more than that as it's obivous Matt Ryan prefers looking Roddy White's way.
Point Projection: 4 points
--------------------
51. Antwaan Randle El (Washington Redskins) vs. Pittsburgh
Randle El has been a solid contributer for the Redskins passing game and through eight games he is on pace to shatter his career high in receptions. However, this isn't the week to use him, as the Steelers rank 1st in the NFL against the pass and have allowed just six passing touchdowns on the season.
Point Projection: 4 points
--------------------
52. Javon Walker (Oakland Raiders) vs. Atlanta
We told you not to get too caught up in the 13 fantasy points that Walker put up in week 7, and hopefully, you listened as the Ravens held Walker in check, allowing him just 28 receiving yards. Walker should have an easier go of things in week 9 against a Falcons pass d that ranks 24th in the league, though we still expect him to be closer to the 2 fantasy points he got in week 8 than the 13 he put up in week 9.
Point Projection: 4 points
--------------------
53. Shaun McDonald (Detroit Lions) @ Chicago
After Roy E. Williams was shipped to Dallas, it appeared that Furrey would become the team's number two target as he hauled in 6 passes for 89 yards in week 7, while Shaun McDonald failed to catch one ball. But, then week 8 came, and it was Furrey who was held without a catch as McDonald corralled 5 passes to the tune of 68 yards. It's unclear who will really emerge out of the two, which is why it's best to avoid either one. I mean, they are Lions after all.
Point Projection: 4 points
--------------------
54. Mike Furrey (Detroit Lions) @ Chicago
See Shaun McDonald!
Point Projection: 4 points
--------------------
55. Amani Toomer (New York Giants) vs. Dallas
In each week over the last month Toomer has seen a decline in receptions. If the trend continue, the veteran wide receiver would just have one reception in week 9. We don't think that will be the case but to expect anything outside of 35-45 receiving yards could be a stretch.
Point Projection: 3 points
--------------------
56. DeMetrius Williams (Baltimore Ravens) @ Cleveland
Don't let the 13 points Williams put up in week 8 deceive you as all 13 came on one 70 yard TD catch that resulted from a breakdown in coverage. Take away that one catch, and Williams is still stuck on 9 fantasy points through 7 games. Not the type of wide receiver production you're looking for.
Point Projection: 3 points
--------------------
57. Rashied Davis (Chicago Bears) vs. Detroit
Davis is actually the Bears' top producing fantasy wide receiver, but if Brandon Lloyd returns, he'll have a tough time holding onto that spot as Davis will be the one most likely to be moved to the third wide receiver slot. Still, if Lloyd is out, keep in mind that Davis has 27 fantasy points over the Bears' last three games.
Point Projection: 3 points
--------------------
58. James Hardy (Buffalo Bills) @ New York Jets
Hardy, a rookie, has struggled in his first season in the NFL, managing just 11 fantasy points and lacking any true consistency up to this point. It will be interesting to see if Hardy can mature quickly and take on a large role during Josh Reed's absence; however, we won't be holding our breath.
Point Projection: 3 points
--------------------
59. Marty Booker (Chicago Bears) vs. Detroit
Booker did tally 13 fantasy points in week 7 prior to the Bears' week 8 bye, but with the possible return of Brandon Lloyd and the emergence of both Rashied Davis and Devin Hester, opportunities will be hard to come by for Booker, though against the horrific Lions, who knows what can happen.
Point Projection: 3 points
--------------------
60. Patrick Crayton (Dallas Cowboys) @ New York Giants
Whether it's Brad Johnson or Brooks Bollinger Crayton has limited fantasy value. He had just one reception in week 8 and you can expect much of the same against a New York Giants secondary that is fresh off a four interception game.
Point Projection: 3 points
--------------------
61. Justin Gage (Tennessee Titans) vs. Green Bay
None of the Titans wide receivers have any true fantasy value, but Collins targeted Gage quite a bit last week; however multiple drops forced him to finish with just one reception on the game. However, if you're digging this deep, remember that Gage is the only Titans wide out to record a touchdown reception this season.
Point Projection: 3 points
--------------------
62. Koren Robinson (Seattle Seahawks) vs. Philadelphia
Injuries allowed Koren Robinson to work his way back into the league, but they've also limited his fantasy potential as quarterback, Matt Hasselbeck, still has yet to return to the field. With Seneca Wallace under center, around 3 points is all that you can hope for from Robinson.
Point Projection: 3 points
--------------------
63. Donte' Stallworth (Cleveland Browns) vs. Baltimore
Stallworth managed to haul in his first touchdown as a Brown in week 8, but don't get too excited. Stallworth has just 56 receiving yards on 7 catches this season, good for only an 8 yard per catch average. I think it's safe to say Stallworth will never live up to the hype.
Point Projection: 2 points
--------------------
64. Jordy Nelson (Green Bay Packers) @ Tennessee
The Titans and their 4th ranked pass defense will pose a hearty test for the Packers' passing game. That's not good news for Nelson as the wide out has already had trouble surpassing the 40 yard mark throughout this season while serving as the Packers' number three wide receiver.
Point Projection: 2 points
--------------------
65. Chris Henry (Cincinnati Bengals) vs. Jacksonville
After seeing Henry amass just 60 yards over 3 games, do you think the Bengals kind of regret taking him back? Granted, not all the blame can be placed on Henry as Ryan Fitzpatrick is not the most capable quarterback. Thankfully, you can quickly remedy your pick-up of Henry by sending him back to the waiver wire where he belongs.
Point Projection: 2 points
--------------------
66. David Anderson (Houston Texans) @ Minnesota
It's no secret that Matt Schaub is on top of his game at the moment, which means even Anderson, the team's third wide receiver with Andre Davis sidelined gets some fantasy love. The only problem for Anderson is the plethora of weapons at Schaub's disposal as Anderson will have to produce while just getting the left overs, something he did in week 8 as he found pay dirt against the Bengals.
Point Projection: 2 points
--------------------
67. Chaz Schilens (Oakland Raiders) vs. Atlanta
With the 60-yard bomb Schilens caught this past week against the Ravens, the rookie wide receiver out of San Diego State has a chance to become the Raiders' deep threat. However, in all honesty, you can better justify adding him to your fantasy roster based on your love for his name.
