Should i start knowshon moreno this week

This is the week Newton turns it around. Sitting Stafford really hinges on the status of Calvin Johnson. If he is out, we all saw how the Lions were totally inept on offense last week. Even if he plays, he faces Joe Haden, who some might say has played the best of any cornerback in the league so far.

Moreno is a must-start in all fantasy formats this week. The Jacksonville Jaguars have a terrible defense and the Broncos are heavily favoured to be big winners on Sunday.

It's not the tough matchup the Cardinals have against the 49ers this week that makes Mendenhall as bad play this week, it's his lack of burst. He is also losing carries to Andre Ellington, who is averaging 6. Woodhead is the sixth-highest scoring back in the last two weeks, and is continuing to see more looks with Ryan Mathews banged up. Woodhead is a weapon both as a runner and pass-catcher, and the Chargers have a favourable matchup against the Colts this week.

On pace for his best statistical season of his career, Torrey Smith has completed that transition into a true number-one receiver. They play the Packers who have been poor against the pass so far this season. Carson Palmer is doing a good job of spreading the ball about to different targets, which isn't good for Fitzgerald's fantasy value. It looked like the Eagles had a nice future star. Unfortunately, he never got the opportunity after injuries slowed him down year after year.

The Broncos acquired him in , and he split time with Moreno. He averaged 5. Already a premium subscriber? Click here to confirm your access Login Now. Game Day Live! View your notifications. Log In.

Though he seemed like primarily a goal line vulture to start the season, Tolbert could be a great play this week against a Seattle defense that has overachieved so far this season. This one seems pretty obvious, with Buckhalter being the primary backup for Moreno on the Broncos, but there is a large population of people who believe that the newly acquired Laurence Maroney will end up getting the majority of the carries.

Buckhalter had 17 carries in the first two weeks while Moreno was playing, so he should be able to nearly match that number this week alone with Moreno out. Projected stat line: 65 yards rushing, 1 touchdown, 2 receptions, 15 yards receiving. He had very little fantasy value going into the season, but Cleveland Browns running back Peyton Hillis can be a valuable fantasy addition this week.
