Kurt Warner continues to have an amazing season, and is the clear number one right now. Peyton Manning jumps up to number five thanks largely to his match-up. Manning has been a disappointment this season, but he should be a solid play this week. Matt Ryan jumps up into the top ten; he is having a remarkable year for a rookie and is a solid play almost every week right now. Jake Delhomme is another sleeper this week, playing the Lions makes everybody better. Tyler Thigpen gets a great match-up this week and he has been great lately and should be played in all leagues.

Larry Johnson returns this week and looks like a pretty solid play. Reggie Bush should return as well, but is only a desperation play until we see him out there. Willie Parker should be back, but keep monitoring that situation. Parker was supposed to play last week and several other times this year. If he cannot go then Mewelde Moore is a great play. Matt Forte takes a huge jump this week, thanks to a solid season and a great match-up against Green Bay.

Anquan Boldin grabs the top spot this week. Boldin has been amazing since coming back from his injury. Boldin has been outstanding all season and is the clear number one right now. Roddy White moves way up thanks in no small part to the play of Matt Ryan. Steve Breaston takes a big step up this week and looks to be a solid play at WR3/Flex. Breaston is a solid play as a WR2 this week with the good match-up against Seattle. Kevin Curtis and Kevin Walter both move up big time and have established themselves as solid WR3/Flex plays most weeks.
Tight Ends
- Tony Gonzalez (Chiefs)
- Antonio Gates (Chargers)
- Dallas Clark (Colts)

- Donald Lee (Packers)
- Kevin Boss (Giants)
- L.J. Smith (Eagles)
- Jeremy Shockey (Saints) HEALTH????
Vernon Davis bounced back from a questionable status and had a big TD catch on Monday night. Davis is still not likely to be a top tier TE right now, but he is serviceable. Tony Scheffler moves back into the top ten after his injury problems have subsided. The sleeper this week is Dustin Keller who should have another solid week. He has emerged as an important target the last couple weeks and the Pats are open to being attacked with a TE.
Kickers
- Jason Elam (Falcons)
- Matt Bryant (Bucs)
- John Kasay (Panthers)
- Neil Rackers (Cards)
- Stephen Gostkowski (Pats)
- Mason Crosby (Packers)

- Nick Folk (Cowboys)
- Joe Nedney (49ers)
- Rian Lindell (Bills)
- Josh Scobee (Jags)
- Adam Vinatieri (Colts)
- Ryan Longwell (Vikings)
- Phil Dawson (Browns)
- Jeff Reed (Steelers)
Kickers are all about the same at the end of the year, so it comes down to a week-by-week match up question. My favorite kicker to jump up this week is Jason Elam. Elam has been outstanding this year in Atlanta and their offense is rolling.

Defenses change week to week more than anything else in fantasy football. The sleepers for this week on defense are Miami and Arizona. Both teams have very good match-ups and Miami has been playing pretty well of late. Carolina is a great bet to have an excellent week. Again, playing the Lions is never a bad thing.
