David’s Daily Digest
Fantasy Notes:
TE Fred Davis on the Rise
With normal starter Chris Cooley admitting he’s not completely 100% and receiving props from his head coach for a nice effort on Sunday, it certainly sounds like tight Fred Davis could see his playing time increase. Davis saw plenty of action on Sunday and took advantage of his six targets, catching five balls for over 100 yards. Expect Davis’ stock to continue to rise along with his playing time.
Ochocinco gets lost in the Shuffle
It may be a little concerning for fantasy owners with Ochocinco only seeing three targets on a night whenBrady passes for over 500 yards. What you have to keep in mind, the Patriots like to run a lot of double tight-end sets and Hernanez is quickly becoming a very dangerous weapon in the slot. It’s too early to panic though, Ochocinco is still plenty talented and Brady is still plenty capable of getting the ball to all of his weapons. Remember number 85 is the new guy and it may take a little time for him to find his place; but rest assured the Patriot are working on it.
Fantasy Owners safe with Orton?
It appears to be the case for the moment as Broncos head coach John Fox reassures there is no quarterback controversy in Denver. Orton may be safe, but if the Broncos are going to succeed fantasy owners better not count on more games like Monday night; 50 pass plays and 13 run calls. Whether Orton keeps his job or not, fantasy owners are going to need a better effort if they are going to stick with the Broncos’ quarterback; two costly turnovers and just one score.
Hakeem Nicks could miss Monday Night
Nicks suffered a knee injury in the team’s loss on Sunday to the Redskins. If Nicks is unable to play against a depleted Rams secondary on Monday, wide receiver Domenik Hixon could be a nice fantasy fill-in. Hixon has great speed and explosion and could be a nice fix for fantasy rosters a little thin at the wideout spot.
Just my Tuesday takes.
