Darren Sproles is due for a big day (especially in PPR leagues) with Jimmy Graham out. I expect this game to be a bit of a shootout with Sproles due for a big game as Drew Brees’ safety blanket.

We’re told Felix Jones is the #1 running back, but I’m not buying it. I will not doubt his physical tools, but there’s a reason why Dallas gave up on him a long time ago. I’m betting Phillip Tanner to have the better fantasy day.

Beware of the New York Giants Defense against the Washington Redskins. Defenses facing Washington have only averaged 2.3 points. I recommend picking up almost any other defense this week.

The Cowboys offense is a conundrum, you never know who is going to score on a consistent basis. A big reason for this depends on how the opposing team defends them. The last two weeks Dez Bryant has had 28 targets compared to Miles Austin’s 11. Is this a sign that Bryant is now the #1 receiver? I don’t think so. There will be big games by one each week.

Similar to the Cowboys, the Titans offense is highly unpredictable. Kenny Britt is the #1 option but Kendall Wright and Nate Washington could all have great fantasy days. If one of these three were go to down with an injury the two remaining players would be top 25 wide receivers.
