Rizzla takes a look at the hottest pickups for Week two of the 2011 fantasy football season.
Win My Fantasy League provides a few names that should not even be on the wire in fantasy leagues.
Over the past 5 seasons, neither Cedric Benson, Thomas Jones, or Matt Forte have managed to eclipse the double-digit mark in rushing touchdowns as members of the Chicago Bears. Last year, neither Forte nor Chester Taylor were impressive near that goal line. Enter Marion Barber, who made a name for himself in Dallas by getting into the end zone.
Vance Worley has been pitching lights out for the Phillies. There’s no excuse for him not to be owned.
Zach gives his take on who to replace Hanley Ramirez with.
Over the past four contests, Eyenga has averaged 10.5 points, 4 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 2.3 steals, 1.8 blocks, and 1 three-pointer per game. Considering that he is owned in just five percent of Yahoo fantasy leagues, these stellar stats have gone largely unnoticed.
The long-awaited ‘Melo’ trade would mean a return to fantasy-relevancy for both Richard Hamilton. Hamilton would start at shooting guard, considering that the Nets’ two previous SG starters Stephen Graham and Anthony Morrow, would be sent to Denver. Although his glory days are long gone, Rip can still score and has been averaging a career-high 1.2 three-pointers per game this season.
When given the minutes, Ramon Sessions has proved his fantasy-relevancy. In the 2008-09 season with Milwaukee, Sessions averaged 12.4 points, 5.7 assists, 3.4 rebounds, and 1.1 steals per game despite coming off the bench for 40 of those games. Unfortunately, in 2009-10 and so far this season, he has averaged less than 23 minutes per game.
