Week 12 Fantasy Advice

It's me! Your favorite undead, giving you the long, the short and the sloppy on my fantasy football projections for the week. And, of course, owning up to all the bad. Check back after the week clears to see how I fared. And kick me questions in the comments. I also lurk on Yahoo Answers and advise friends and coworkers and own up to all that here, too.

So here goes nothing.


Andre Brown or Knowshon Moreno

Moreno sees a lot of touches, but the Pats run defense is far superior to Dallas. Moreno lost a lot of work to Ball last week, too. Give Brown the start.

Pick Three:

Rueben Randle (vs Dallas)
Kendall Wright (@ Oakland)
Jarrett Boykin (vs Minnesota)
T.Y. Hilton (@ Arizona)
Eric Decker (@ New England)

New England & Denver is going to be a shoot out and Decker should see targets right behing D. Thomas. Wright has a soft match up, but Fitzpatrick is no Jake Locker. Randle has a soft match up and a proven, albeit struggling, quarterback. As I said for weekly predictions, Tolzien is likely to pick up his first win against a shaky Minnesota defense and in a standard PPR league Boykin will see healthy touches this week. Hilton has a tough match up and seems to be boom-or-bust to start with, aside from his three TD week against Houston, Hilton's been weak. 

DeAngelo Williams or Chris Ogbonnaya

Ogbonnaya loses touches to Whittaker and MaGahee all the time. A smart team would put the ball in the hands of any, or all, of these guys, given their QB woes, but Cleveland cannot be convinced of this. On the other hand, a running QB like Newton really opens up the run game for Williams and the match up against the Miami run defense is soft. I'm looking for Williams to have a strong game this week, despite the predictions. 

RGIII or Case Keenum

Keenum. He's a good qb in a bad situation, but the Jags defense is bad. San Fran uses the read option, too so they know how to defend it a little. And like I said in the weekly pick em, I'm looking for this to be Keenum's big night.

Greg Olsen or Vernon Davis

Olsen. Kap's gonna try to exploit bouldin in the long game. Newton loves hitting Olsen underneath and he adds years after the catch.
