The NFL's bye weeks are officially over, which means that the regular season's final stretch run is here. And it probably means that your fantasy league has only a few weeks left before playoffs.
With all the teams back in action it's nice to have a wealth of options to consider in your lineup, but it could also be an issue trying to narrow down your options.
We've done our best to try and help you pick and choose which players deserve your starting nod this week and others who we feel could negatively effect your final score.
The advice is based on standard 10-team leagues.
START: Andy Dalton, Cincinnati Bengals Quarterback vs OAK
Dalton is quietly one of the most efficient fantasy quarterbacks in the league this season, and likely the only player in the Top 10 of his position that is benched more often than he is in team's starting lineups.
He averages a respectable two touchdowns per game and goes against a forgiving Oakland defense this weekend.
Season Total: 221/344, 2,559 yards, 20 TDs, 11 INTs
28 carries, 88 yards, 2 TDs
SIT: Eli Manning, New York Giants Quarterback vs GB
Eli Manning has had a week to think about three straight lackluster performances, and while I expect Manning to have a better week this weekend, I don't believe he'll necessarily put up numbers worthy of a fantasy start against Green Bay.
Season Total: 223/364, 2,641 yards, 12 TDs, 11 INTs
14 carries, 8 yards
START: Marcel Reece, Oakland Raiders Running Back at CIN
Reece has impressed since filling in for Darren McFadden, who went down with a high ankle sprain a few weeks ago. He had nearly 200 yards from scrimmage last week against New Orleans and over 100 the week before.
The concern is that he could be slowed by an imposing Bengals defense, but his pass-catching abilities make up for that.
Season Total: 33 carries, 151 yards
37 catches, 418 yards, 1 TD
