Won’t be long now and the fantasy playoff will be here and there is no room for error. SOOO, lets make sure you have quality contributors to put in your line-up and make sure you keep the dead weight out of it. Check this list!

Start em if you got em…

Arizona D – These dudes are on a tear – 7 int’s, 8 forced fumbles and 16 sacks this year already – and guess who’s comin to town – Jake “the Turnover Machine” Delhomme. I don’t think it takes much more convincing than that.  Oh, and I bet you can find them on your waiver wire. Look for 4 sacks, less than 14 points, 3 picks and a TD.

Well I called the Jets success in the running game last week but the Cinci D didn’t help at all with the Schaub prediction.  Just when you were ready to start believing in the Bengals, they take a step back. Typical!

But then again, that Texans O isn’t exactly chopped liver and perhaps the Bengals were a little emotionally fatigued after all the tough division games combined with the events surrounding the surprising death of the defensive coordinators wife.

Either way, you can’t win them all. But, it sure as hell isn’t gonna keep me from tryin. Take a look at this weeks picks.

Start em if you got em…

Ryan Grant RB (GB) The Browns are allowing 165 yards per game to apposing running backs and, on top of that, they’ve given up 9 touchdowns in six games (do the math). And if the Packers are smart they will concentrate on running the ball both to exploit the weak Browns rushing D and to keep Rodgers upright (something the injuries along the line have been preventing them from doing.  I think 115+ yards and 1+ touchdown are very doable don’t you?

As the title implies, I am shortening this installment up a bit this week due to my lack of time (A wedding and a performance this weekend to prepare for. My head is wanting to spin). But, these are some super quality picks that I am super confident in. Check them out.

Start em if you got em…

Thomas Jones/Leon Washington RB (NYJ) – The Bills are giving up about 150 a game this year and they even let Jamal Lewis “plow” for over 100 last week. I just bet the Jets will run all over them. Thomas Jones goes for 100 and a TD and Leon goes for 125 all around yards with a big play for a TD and a few receptions sprinkled in to please you PPR guys.

So did you my heed my advice and bench Stephen Jackson last week? How about my call on not giving up on Steve Slaton? Hopefully you did and are now savoring the sweet fruit of success. If not, well, there’s always this week. Take a look at what I have for you for week 5.

Start em if you got em…

Marshawn Lynch RB (BUF) – You drafted him and you waited patiently for three weeks only to see him get 8 carries for 4 yards last week. Bummer! Well I say this is the week he puts up some numbers for you. Cleveland is 31st against the run and just ripe for the picken. I’m can see him easily cracking the 100 yard mark and something tells me he has 2 touchdowns in him (that something being a little stat that says Cleveland has given up a league high 8 rushing td’s so far this year – thats 2 per game for you math wizards).

Well its week four and by know you and I are starting to get a pretty good feel for who’s reliable and who’s not so reliable. But there are still a few players that have yet to live up to their billing. This week, I have one of them for you.

Also this week, I am stepping out on a limb with a few picks. Some of them seem to defy logic BUT I, like you, must trust my gut. Here’s what I have on tap for you this week.

Start em if you got em…

Santana Moss WR (WAS) – Last week I thought about starting him but opted instead for Hines Ward as my WR3… OOOPS ( thank God I still won). This week I won’t make the same mistake again. Look for him to post some decent numbers again this week against the pathetic Buc’s defense. 7 for 120+ and a TD.
