Some Musings From Week 2
Dorian “The Trashman” Colbert, Rosterwatch.com

New Orleans vs Carolina:

• All three Saints running backs are startable.
• So are Jonathan Stewart and Deangelo Williams
• Brandon LaFell should be owned in all leagues
• The Saints defense is a plus match-up for any starting back

Dallas vs Seattle:

• Beast mode is back
• Seattle might have a top 5 defense
• The Seattle coaching staff has big plans for Golden Tate
• Kevin Ogletree had one target. So much for the second coming of Laurent Robinson
• Dez Bryant has been disappointing. Buy low

Washington vs St. Louis:

• Danny Amendola is a PPR monster
• Darryl Richardson, not Isaiah Pead, is the number 2 Rams RB
• The hopes of a Fred Davis breakout season are all but gone
• Alfred Morris has a solid grasp on the Redskins backfield

Baltimore vs Philadelphia:

• Michael Vick is match-up proof
• Dennis Pitta is the tight end to own in Baltimore
• Jacoby Jones is a sneaky sleeper
• Brent Celek looks like a TE1. He shouldn’t be on your waiver wire

Kansas City vs Buffalo:

• Fred Jackson may never start again this season
• Stevie Johnson is too reliable
• Jamaal Charles’ inactivity in the second half was probably due to the blowout

Oakland vs Miami:

• Reggie Bush will have a career year
• Brian Hartline is worth owning
• Keep an eye on Lamar Miller in dynasty leagues
• Buy low on McFadden if you can. Things will get better
• McFadden owners should pick up Mike Goodson
• Carson Palmer is not dependable, rendering his receivers the same

Tampa Bay vs New York:

• Doug Martin owns the Tampa backfield
• Tampa’s defense is worth a spot start in the right match-up
• Hakeem Nicks’ foot is fine
• Eli Manning loves going to Martellus Bennett, especially in the endzone
• Andre Brown looks better than David Wilson right now

Cleveland vs Cincinnati:

• Weeden is going to make it
• Trent Richardson is the real deal. Start him with confidence every week
• Greg Little might actually be worth starting as the Brown’s number one
• If there’s another Bengals receiver to own besides A.J. Green it is Armon Binns
• The Law Firm has found his footing in Cincinnati. Kudos to those who took the plunge

Minnesota vs Indianapolis:

• Kyle Rudolph is a TE1
• Gerhart is only useful as a handcuff to AP
• Jerome Simpson’s return will only make more opportunities for Harvin. scary
• Andrew Luck will be a top ten QB by season end
• Reggie Wayne could be the value of the draft
• We’ll see what’s what with Austin Collie soon enough, but for now, Donnie Avery should be rostered in most leagues.

Arizona vs New England:

• Arizona has a very formidable defense
• Minus Aaron Hernandez, The Pats’ passing game has no focal point
• Watch out for Julian Edelman while Hernandez is out
• Pray that John Skelton returns as the starter for Fitzgerald’s sake
• Andre Roberts might not be a sleeper for long

Houston vs Jacksonville:

• Ben Tate should stay firmly inserted in your flex
• Schaub is an expensive game manager. Need I keep repeating myself?
• Owen Daniels is back
• The only person worth starting weekly in Jacksonville is MJD

Tennessee vs San Diego:

• Chris Johnson may be the fantasy bust of the season. Owners should pick up Javon Ringer yesterday
• Britt looks healthy. The Titans will depend on him out of necessity
• The Chargers’ passing game will flourish regardless of who is in the game
• Meachem and Rivers are not on the same page. He’s getting targets though

Detroit vs San Francisco:

• Make sure Mikel Leshoure is rostered in your league
• Randy Moss is largely a decoy right now
• Frank Gore is a fantasy steal. Good job for keeping the faith in him
• If you have an IDP in your league, make sure Navarro Bowman is not on your waiver wire
