Each week, TSN. Dan Fouts Jersey .ca takes a look at the top available players in fantasy football ahead of the weekly waiver deadline. Quarterbacks Ryan Tannehill, Miami Dolphins (at Jaguars) Last Week: 25-32, 277 yards, 2 TDs, 0 INTs Tannehill had one of his best games of the season on Sunday, making a rare appearance in the Top 10. Questions of Tannehill losing his starting gig have long been silenced and the third-year QB is showing he’s at least worth a spot-start in bye weeks by throwing for two touchdowns in four of his six games played this season. Kyle Orton, Buffalo Bills (at Jets) Last Week: 31/43, 283 yards, 2 TDs, 1 INT If Kyle Orton hasn’t been picked up in your league, he showed once again why he should be on Sunday. Since taking over as starter in Buffalo, Orton has performed like a middling QB2. That’s good enough for a spot start during bye weeks (about as good as you can hope for at this point in the season) with some potential for Orton to play better as he gets more comfortable in the Bills’ offence. Running Backs Denard Robinson, Jacksonville Jaguars (at Dolphins) Last Week: 22 carries, 127 yards, 1 TD Last week I recommended Storm Johnson in this place but was less than enthusiastic with my endorsement. This week I have Robinson on the list in part for the same reason – he is a starting running back after all, even if he does start for the Jaguars – but with a lot more enthusiasm because I think Robinson could be good. The playmaker likely has WR eligibility in your league as well so could be better suited to that spot depending on needs. Tre Mason, St. Louis Rams (at Chiefs) Last Week: 18 carries, 85 yards, 1 TD, 1 fumble Mason appears to have finally ascended to the top of the Rams depth chart at running back but there are still concerns he won’t put up the type of numbers owners will hope to get from him. The Rams have been inconsistent in their use of running backs and while Mason figures to lead the team in touches, he may still have games with an unsavory amount of carries. Mason’s lack of use in the passing game is another concern. But if you want to own a Rams’ back, and their offence continues to show signs of fantasy relevance, Mason is the guy. Wide Receivers Doug Baldwin, Seattle Seahawks (at Panthers) Last Week: 7 receptions (11 targets), 123 yards, 1 TD With Harvin out of the picture in Seattle, Baldwin may be worth starting moving forward. Don’t expect the same output near 20 point output every week, but Baldwin appeared to be Russell Wilson’s favourite target post-Harvin and that should stay the same for the foreseeable future. Having the Seahawks’ top receiver on your team certainly isn’t a bad thing. Stevie Johnson, San Francisco 49ers (Bye Week) Last Week: 5 receptions (7 targets), 79 yards, 1 TD It’s rare to think a third wide receiver is worth a look on a fantasy team, but Johnson’s production – and to a lesser extent the 49ers use of Johnson – make that the case here. Johnson’s string of production, touchdowns in three of the past four games, may not just be a hot streak. He was targeted seven times on Sunday in San Fran’s high powered offence, and if that remains, he should at least accumulate enough yards that he won’t ever be a black hole in your lineup. LaDainian Tomlinson Jersey .com) - New England Patriots starting center Bryan Stork will not play in Sundays AFC Championship against Indianapolis due to a knee injury the rookie sustained last week. Wholesale Chargers Jerseys . - Tiger Woods only made it through 10 holes Thursday — this time because of the weather, not his back.CHARLOTTE, N.C. - The Panthers say theyd like to find a replacement for longtime No. 1 wide receiver Steve Smith in this years NFL draft. The big question is when theyll do it. The Panthers have the 28th overall pick, but the NFC South champions have a variety of needs after getting hit hard in free agency, and could go in a number of directions with their first-round choice. General manager Dave Gettleman said recently that wide receiver, offensive tackle and cornerback are among the teams top needs, but qualified that statement by adding he wont got out of his way to land one. "When you reach for a position of need youre in trouble," he said. Gettleman said he has some reservations about drafting a receiver in the first round because it often takes them longer to adjust to the NFL game than those who play other positions. "History tells you that its a very difficult position to assimilate into (the NFL), especially with the current game being played at the college level," Gettleman said. Gettleman called it a "wide receiver heavy" draft that includes several players whove put up big numbers. He said the trick is finding guys who can easily make the transition to the next level. "Ill look at a guy and hes caught 90 balls ... but of those 45 were flash screens," Gettleman said. "The other 45 he caught, he ran to three spots. So, do they understand coverage? Theyre going to have to learn the whole route tree. How long is it going to take them to assimilate? Its an issue. Its a problem." Smith was released in a salary cap move earlier this off-season. Replacing his toughness and production wont be easy. He caught 836 passes for 12,197 yards and 67 touchdowns for the Panthers in 13 seasons. However, after averaging 76 receptions for 1,284 yards receiving and 5.5 touchdowns in his first two seasons playing with quarterback Cam Newton, Smiths numbers fell off in 2013. He caught 64 passes for 745 yards and four TDs. The Panthers signed free agents Jerricho Cotchery, Jason Avant and Tiquan Underwood, but none is expected to become the next No. 1 receiver in Carolina. Five things to watch from the Panthhers in the draft: ON THE FRONT BURNER: Jordan Gross retired this off-season, leaving a huge hole at left tackle — one the Panthers potentially could address in Round 1. Jerry Tillery Jersey. . Gettleman said there are some tackles in the draft dont have "left tackle feet," but said that doesnt necessarily matter. "There are only so many elite tackles," he said. "There are plenty of guys playing left tackle in this league that dont have classic left tackle feet." Finding a left tackle might take on added importance given Newton is coming off ankle surgery this off-season. FIRST ROUND SUCCESS: The Panthers have had tremendous success with their first-round picks the last three seasons. They grabbed defensive tackle Star Lotulelei from Utah at No. 14 in 2013, and he looks like hes going to be around the league for quite a while. They drafted linebacker Luke Kuechly at No. 11 in 2012 and quarterback Cam Newton first overall the year before that. Kuechly was the 2013 NFL Defensive Player of the Year, while Newton was the Offensive Rookie of the Year in 2011. BLUE GOOSE: Last year, Gettleman said the Panthers needed to add some "hog mollies," or big linemen. This year, the Boston native switched gears, saying if there is a "blue goose" pass rusher available at No. 28 he wouldnt pass on him. Tough to know what a blue-winged bird native to Ethiopia has to do with building a football team, though. CORNERBACK ON RADAR: The Panthers lost starting cornerback Captain Munnerlyn to Minnesota in free agency. While they signed free agent Antoine Cason, dont rule out cornerback as an option with one of the teams top three picks. The Panthers have one pick in each of the seven rounds. DONT BE REACHING: The Panthers are determined not to reach for picks at positions of need. They followed that plan last year and took defensive tackle Kawaan Short from Purdue in the second round — even after selecting Lotulelei in the first. "Last year, K.K. (Short) was obviously the best value in that second-round pick," Gettleman said. ___ AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and http://twitter.com/AP_NFL Wholeslae Jerseys NFL Jerseys Cheap Wholesale NBA Jerseys Cheap NHL Jerseys Cheap MLB Jerseys Wholesale Soccer Jerseys Cheap College Jerseys Cheap Football Jerseys Cheap Basketball Jerseys Cheap Baseball Jerseys ' ' '
