Quarterback

Sam BradfordPhiladelphia Eagles ($29)
vs. Miami Dolphins

Philadelphia’s bye week may have worked wonders for their beleaguered offense as they looked good against Dallas last week. The running game started to click and Jordan Matthews came to life with nine catches for 133 yards and a touchdown, which was a game-winner in overtime. Bradford has a chance to improve in the second half of the year as Philadelphia’s schedule gets much easier. Miami’s pass defense is ranked twenty-fifth in the league in DVOA according to Football Outsiders. Look for Bradford to turn in a solid performance this weekend.

Other notables:

Running Back

James StarksGreen Bay Packers ($18)
vs. Detroit Lions

Following Eddie Lacy’s struggles, Starks was just promoted to starting running back on Green Bay’s depth chart. Lacy is dealing with a groin injury and at this point is likely to see less work than Starks. Detroit owns one of the league’s least effective run defenses, checking in at twenty-ninth in the league in DVOA and allowing opposing running backs to average 23.7 fantasy points per game. There’s a good chance Green Bay builds a big lead and is able to run the ball extensively in the second half.

Other notables:

Wide Receiver

Brandin CooksNew Orleans Saints ($23)
@ Washington Redskins

Cooks has really come on of late, scoring three touchdowns over his past two games. It appears the Saints’ offense is finally getting on track after a rough start to the season. Cooks has seen 27 targets over the last three games and has been over 70 receiving yards in five of his last seven games. Washington has struggled to contain opposing wide receivers this year.

Other notables:

Tight End

Eric EbronDetroit Lions ($17)
@ Green Bay Packers

Ebron has been pretty consistent as far as tight ends go, seeing five or more targets in five of six games played this season. He has scored touchdowns in three of those games. Expect Detroit to have to throw often as they will most likely be down early in this game.

Other notables:

Defense

Baltimore Ravens ($10)
vs. Jacksonville Jaguars

The Ravens’ defense has not performed well this season, but they will be facing a turnover-prone quarterback as favorites at home which is always a good situation for a fantasy defense. Vegas has the Ravens listed as a 5.5-point favorite.
