Matt Schaub is better than David Carr, this much is already apparent. Now, let's all hope Andre' Johnson doesn't miss too much time…Do not forget about Ron Dayne. He won numerous fantasy leagues with a big finish last year and is in line to get most of the carries should something happen to injury-prone starter Ahman Green…Is there a worse run-blocking unit in the league than Carolina's?…It looks like Steve Smith will go down as the best second round value in fantasy leagues this year. Running backs are scarce, but he's clearly more valuable than any RB2 right now.
The wide receivers help, but Cincinnati's awful defense is a big boon to Carson Palmer's statistics. And anyone who used the Bengals in their survivor pool was asking for trouble – that was a classic trap game. Road team traveling during a short week…Kellen Winslow should be treated as the No. 2 fantasy tight end from this point forward…You know what I'm going to say regarding Jamal Lewis' monster effort – sell-high. Do yourself a favor and go look at his career numbers. His 2003 season is a bigger outlier than Adrian Beltre's career-year.
With that offense and Warrick Dunn getting goal line carries, it's officially time to start worrying about Jerious Norwood's fantasy prospects this season…R.I.P. Joe Horn…Dennis Northcutt is a boring option, but any team's No. 1 WR deserves some fantasy consideration.
That Packers defense is legit…Brandon Jackson blew a big opportunity to take that job and run with it, no pun intended…Derrick Ward has been rather impressive and is worth starting as a flex as long as Brandon Jacobs remains out.
The matchups haven't been easy, but J.P. Losman has been bad thus far…Fantasy owners don't want to hear it, but for what it's worth, Lee Evans had just four catches after two weeks last year as well…The numbers may not show it, but Marshawn Lynch looks legit. He's going to be a very good NFL running back, starting this season…Santonio Holmes is going to lead the league in yards-per-catch this season.
Unfortunately, Alex Smith might be who we thought he was, and that's not a good thing – especially for Vernon Davis.
Drew Brees has posted three consecutive poor games against teams that run Cover 2 defenses, dating back to last year's postseason. It's a concern, to be sure, but he makes for a better trade target than he does offer…Joey Galloway might still be the fastest man in the NFL when he's 50…Reggie Bush owners, stay off that ledge – he'll be fine.
It looks like Tennessee's defense is not going to be nearly as bad as expected, especially against the run…Dallas Clark may have been the most undervalued fantasy tight end entering the season…Vince Young looked good passing the ball Sunday, and he's only going to get better.
It doesn't get much uglier than Tarvaris Jackson's performance Week 2…Roy Williams running 20 yards sans his helmet was one of the coolest plays Sunday, and that aerial attack is legit in Detroit…Minnesota is going to have a very good fantasy defense this season, creating numerous turnovers. They are a must-start next week against Kansas City.
Watching Marion Barber share carries with Julius Jones is comical at this point. I guess it doesn't matter with Dallas winning, but Wade Phillips would like to keep his job I assume, and the easiest way of doing that is by putting his best players on the field. If Barber is a Kobe beef hamburger from Bradley Ogden's, then Jones is a McDonalds' Filet-O-Fish.
It probably won't happen for some time, but Kellen Clemens gives the Jets the most long-term potential. He can make throws Chad Pennington physically cannot…Actually, the same can be said for Kyle Boller and the Ravens…Mark Clayton has negative yardage on the season.
I'm beginning to think Rex Grossman just isn't a very good quarterback…He should already be owned in keeper-leagues, but Dwayne Bowe could even be considered in deep redraft leagues…This may sound crazy, but Cedric Benson owners may want to think about trying to sell-high this week.
I apologize Ronald Curry owners, I guess Denver's secondary really is that good…LaMont Jordan is for real – he's running with the same tenacity he did two years ago, when he was a top-15 fantasy player…Selvin Young is going to have legit fantasy value at some point this season.
I'm still having a hard time fathoming what Randy Moss has done so far…Antonio Gates looks like a steal for those who drafted him in the third round…LaDainian Tomlinson was held scoreless in two of the first four games last year and only rushed for 100 yards in one of the first six games last season, so he's used to slow starts. Don't go dropping him just yet.
