Week 4 Fantasy Pick Ups
*Victor Cruz, WR, New York Giants (expected to make his season debut this Sunday after dealing with a calf injury)
*Rishard Matthews, WR, Miami Dolphins (back to back 100+ yard receiving games, clearly the next option outside of Jarvis Landry, and more of a TD threat)
*Chris Johnson, RB, Arizona Cardinals (I'm still a David Johnson guy, but CJ2K is getting 20+ carries a game with Ellington out and is doing something with them. Zona offense is on fire.)
*Thomas Rawls, RB, Seattle Seahawks (Lynch was very limited on Sunday, Fred Jackson still got carries but it was Rawls who ripped off 104 yards on 16 carries. He's more of a handcuff now to Lynch but if Beastmode remains banged up, Rawls could be decent here and there.)
*Antonio Andrews, RB, Tennessee Titans (In his season debut, Andrew rushed 12 times for 49 yards and a TD, he also had a catch for 12 yards. Most importantly it was more carries than Bishop Sankey and Dexter McCluster. Not expecting big things from Andrew, but all "lead" backs are worth owning.

Flex Play Friday Week 3
5. Texans RB Chris Polk
vs. Tampa Bay, 1pm... Bucs gave up a ton of points against Bishop freaking Sankey in Week 1. Polk also seems to have passed Alfred Blue by, and Arian Foster doesn't appear ready to go.
4. Falcons RB Devonta Freeman
@ Dallas, 1pm... No Tevin Coleman, opens door for Freeman.
3. Browns RB Isaiah Crowell
vs. Oakland, 1pm... Raiders allow the most fantasy points to RBs since the start of last year.
2. Jaguars RB T.J. Yeldon
@ New England, 1pm... Pats have been torched by backs this season.
1. Cardinals WR John Brown
vs. San Francisco, 4:05pm... 49ers are just terrible, and Brown is due for a 100+ yard game with a 50 yd TD. SF secondary is porous.

Week 3 Fantasy Pick Ups
- Travis Benjamin, WR, Cleveland Browns (He only has 6 catches on the season, but 3 are for touchdowns and he clearly has a nice re pore with Johnny Manziel. He's also (as seen Sunday) a threat in the return game. His TDs will dry up, but he's a big play guy who could serve as a Flex play or a Bye week fill-in.)
- Matt Jones, RB, Washington Redskins (19 carries, 123 yards, 2 touchdowns. Nice little Sunday. Jones finished with 1 more carry than Alfred Morris. I don't think he's overtaken him yet, but that could happen soon. Bad news for Morris owners.)
- Michael Crabtree, WR, Oakland Raiders (I have a hard time trusting Crabtree, but 9 receptions for 111 yards and a score is strong to quite strong. On top of that he had 16 targets, which was 5 more than Amari Cooper, who should get the attention of Joe Haden next week and top corners throughout the season. Derek Carr isn't horrible, so Crabtree may have some value after all.)
- Devonta Freeman, RB, Atlanta Falcons (Sounds like rookie Tevin Coleman may miss time with a rib injury, Freeman isn't great, but for a couple weeks could see an increased workload and maybe fall in the endzone.)
- James Starks, RB, Green Bay Packers (Eddie Lacy sprained his ankle paving the way for a lot of James Starks on Sunday. Packers play next Monday, giving Lacy another day to recover. Lacy owners need to add Starks and even those who are looking for a back should do so, if even only for 1 weeks worth of help.)
