My Two Cents
By KFFL Staff | Categories: Fantasy Football,NFL
Welcome to "My Two Cents". A weekly column where I'll give my take on a few players, and what I think their prospectus' are in the near future. I welcome your questions/comments/suggestions/etc. Even the "not-so-positive" ones like that from KEEPYOURSOXON. Feel free to drop me a line at thefantasyfootballnut@yahoo.com. Here's hoping you have an awesome Week 5!
Quarterbacks:
Ryan Fitzpatrick, Buffalo Bills - The "genius" of the NFL, Fitzpatrick has clearly demonstrated through four weeks that not only is he book-smart, he's also a fully capable and competent leader. Granted, his Week 4 line, (20 Cmp, 34 Att, 199 Yds, 0 TDs, 0 Int) is not what fantasy owners were hoping for. Nor was the outcome of the game the way the Bills and their fans had hoped it to be. Nevertheless, Fitzpatrick remains a high end QB2, and should produce even-keeled numbers more often than clunkers like the one last week. If you're a Fitzpatrick owner, I think you're fine! The Bills are going to do their best to prove the masses wrong, and that they're a far cry from a fluke! While Fitz's supporting cast outside of Fred Jackson is limited as far as big names is concerned, what we've seen so far from Stevie Johnson, David Nelson, Donald Jones, and Scott Chandler has been nothing short of impressive to say the least!
