My Fantasy Notes:
THOMAS HAS BIG GAME AGAINST HAWKS
Last weekend the Bronco’s rookie receiver and top 2010 draft selection Demaryius Thomas had a breakout game on Sunday with eight catches for 97 yards, including a touchdown. It was his first game in the lineup this season and his eight grabs came off of nine targets.
My Fantasy Read:
It may be a little too soon to be christening Thomas the next heir apparent, but with his 6’3” frame and Kyle Orton’s accuracy in the passing game he looks like a good bet to succeed quickly. He’s definitely a weekly consideration in deeper fantasy leagues.
LION’S BEST IS A BEAST ON SUNDAY
The Lion’s rookie runner had a huge game last Sunday with multiple big plays and multiple visits to the end-zone. Jahvid Best scored three times against the Eagles, while totaling over 200 yards of offense. He averaged nearly nine yards each time he touched the ball.
My Fantasy Read:
It’s pretty easy to see that Best is a bonafide playmaker and with no competition in the backfield, there is no worry of any kind of committee in Detroit. Best should be a weekly safe play going forward.
D-MAC BREAKS OUT AGAINST RAMS
The Raiders have not had a lot to get excited about over recent times and McFadden has been something and someone fans have been waiting on most. Last week D-Mac showed the Raider nation just what they have been waiting for rushing for a buck forty-five on 30 carries. This season he is averaging a stout five yards a pop, is healthy, and appears ready to carry the mantle as the Raider’s primary ball-carrier.
My Fantasy Read:
The news wires are reporting that running back Michael Bush is likely to make his return this week, but his presence shouldn’t detract too much from D-Mac’s production. McFadden has been solid in two outings this season and should continue to see his fair-share of touches in the offense.
ORTON CONTINUES STEADY PLAY
Last Sunday Orton passed for more than 300 yards and two touchdowns to lead his team to a week two win over the Seahawks. In two games this season the Bronco’s signal caller has been solid and efficient averaging over 300 yards passing per game and completing over 67% of his throws.
My Fantasy Read:
It looks pretty apparent in Denver that there is no quarterback controversy going on and Orton is the man. Orton has shown great command of McDaniel’s system and is again playing at a high level. With a nice compliment of receivers this season the Bronco’s field general should remain a reliable play this season.
