Fantasy Football-On The Rise



Here are some players who may see an increase in value. The players are not listed in order of value.

1. QB Rex Grossman Chi-Rex may be relevant again, especially if you play in a 2 QB league where just about every breathing starting QB has value. We have all seen the roller coaster ride that is Rex Grossman as a QB and hopefully you won't need him to help your team.


2. QB Brodie Croyle KC-Croyle replaced Huard on Sunday and has been named the starter in KC. He has a tough matchup against the Colts, but may have some value in certain weeks or for next season in keeper leagues.


3. RB Antonio Pittman Stl-The rookie from Ohio State had 7 carries for 53 yards and may see carries as the #2 back behind Steven Jackson. Brian Leonard only got 2 carries as he returned to his FB position with S-Jax healthy.


4. RB Chester Taylor Min-After the success of Adrian Peterson, Taylor saw his number of carries drop and many fantasy owners dropped him. With Peterson out for at least Week 11, Taylor gets the start against a dreadful Oakland defense. RB Mewelde Moore may also see an increase of touches with Peterson out.

5. WR Reggie Brown Phi-After a slow start this season, Brown as quietly averaged 71.6 yards in his last 3 games, and he had a TD Sunday against the Skins. Brown has a decent matchup against the Dolphins this week and could help a team missing a WR such as Marvin Harrison owners.
