CollegeBoy Back Home with Fantasy Bonus Plays for Week 7

Hey Everybody, CollegeBoy here back home from Arizona, and feeling bad about not being there for the podcast—so here is my list of strong, moderate, and weak plays from your mid-range players.

Strong Plays

Jon Kitna against the Jets, Still not a big fan of Kitna, and while the Jets secondary could handle Harrington more or less, Kitna is better and Roy Williams is playing like an absolute beast. Expect good things here as the Lions look to win another, and very well may have to play behind to do it.

Wes Welker against the Packers, and other Dolphins receivers. Joey Harrington may hit pay dirt, and he may hit Welker, and if your league counts return yards, then I am sure all of you are on Welker like a fat kid on cake. Very good bye week start, and you might as well start Harrington against the Packers too.

Leon Washington against the Lions, Another strong bye week fill in, this could be Washington’s week to see his first career-rushing touchdown. He had more yards and a better average than Barlow against the Dolphins, so why not.

Kyle Boller against the Bye Week, this may be the second best week of Kyle Boller’s season after he almost pulled out a miracle against Carolina last week.

Moderate Plays

Joseph Addai, against Redskins – The Redskins have a good D, but Addai should see a good amount of carries, maybe even his second career touchdown. The Colts are at home and coming off a bye. Also, Travis Henry rushed for 178 yards against Skins and the Colts seem to be anxious to show that they can run the ball.

Michael Vick against the Steelers—The Michael Vick Experience is experiencing some technical difficulties. He had a nice run against the Giants but did little else. Still, the Steelers are coming off a huge victory, so expect a small letdown. Vick is home and should rebound. He will throw two passing tds (which is quite the bold statement).

Seahawks Receivers against the Vikings, like the Steelers, the Seahawks came off a draining win against the Rams, so expect a bit of a letdown. However, they are home, so start Branch and D Jack with confidence.

Maurice-Jones Drew against the Texans—coming off a bye week and a two td performance against the Jets the week before, expect Drew to remain in the offense, though he may not score a touchdown this week. Good bye week start.

Bryant Johnson against the Raiders, you have nothing to lose in starting him as a bye week replacement against the terrible Raiders. Leinart is the first rookie QB to throw for two td’s in the first quarter, and he hit Johnson with one against the Bears. Hope for another.

Weak Plays

Charlie Frye against the Broncos, try not to start players against the Broncos until their defense cracks. However, we expressed the same concerns about going against the Bears, and look what the Cardinals did—still, try to start someone else.

Anyone on the Bucs against the Eagles. I would recommend looking elsewhere. I know the Bucs just beat the Bengals, but it won’t happen two weeks in a row.

Chargers receivers against the Chiefs, the Chiefs play a whole lot better at home, and Rivers won’t have as easy a time here as he has had in the last few weeks. Still, Eric Parker could warrant a spot start on a bye week, or a pickup in general.

Sleeper Pick, Alex Smith, against the Eagles this tight end is Gradkowski’s favorite target, good hands near the end zone, good skills, good everything—if you have a bye week for a starting TE, start him and hope he does something.

Well, hope it helps. CollegeBoy is out.
