Fantasy Vault

Here's our new weekly post on who's hot and who's not in the world of Fantasy Football.  Make sure to follow all season long with SportsBank for all the Fantasy tips and breaking news.  So lets hit the ground running with all the results from Week 10:

Stock Up:

• Fred Jackson, RB, Buf - Dont expect those monster numbers each week, especially with a tougher schedule coming up, but Jackson has shown that he still has fantasy relevance.  He's more of a matchup start from this point on, but he's worth having on your team. 
• Percy Harvin, WR, Min - Harvin is now a fantasy must start.  Each week he seems to be hobbling around, sidelined with migraines at practice, only to go for double digit points on Sundays.  As long as he's active, he is an automatic start the rest of the season.   
• Peyton Hillis, RB, Cle - No big news here, but Hillis has proven that he is a top 8 fantasy RB in the NFL now.  There were some thought he might not be a great start this week, but he came out and proved the naysayers wrong with 14 points (ESPN leagues) against the Jets.

Stock Down:

• Brett Favre, QB, Min - Although Favre has been up and down all year, he is WAY down now.  His interceptions are killing him and he's simply not putting up points.  If you're in a bind, Favre is always capable of putting up a decent game, but it's a risk, and there are better options out there. 
• Mike Sims-Walker, WR, Jac - Despite being one of the biggest pickups after last week, his inconstancy came out again in week 10.  He's worth keeping, but start him knowing he could put up 2 as easily as he could put up 20.
• Jahvid Best, RB, Det - He just doesn't seem to have the same burst he did when he took the fantasy world by storm at the beginning of the season.  With fantasy RB's at a premium, you probably need to keep him on your roster, but, remember, he hasn't put up double digit numbers since week 2.  Hes only put up 50+ yards in that same timeframe. 

Week 11 Pickups:

• Benjamin Watson, TE, Cle - Available in 69.9 of ESPN leagues, Watson has proven he has some fantasy value.  He is the obvious favorite target of QB Colt McCoy, and with games coming up against Jacksonville, Carolina, Miami, Buffalo and Cincinnati he could be a good option at the Tight end position.  
• Mark Sanchez, QB, NYJ - Another quarterback with an up and down season, Sanchez has strung together two 21+ games.  He's available in 30% of ESPN leagues, and has favorable match-ups against Houston and Cincy in the next two weeks.  Worth a look.  
• Josh Freeman, QB, TB - Mr. Consistency.  He won't put up game winning numbers, but you can count on him for solid production each week.  With some decent matchups ahead, he's worth a look.  He's available in 42.9% of ESPN leagues.
• Rob Gronkowski, TE, NE - If you're looking to fill a void at TE, Gronkowski may be worth a look in 12 team leagues.  As the Patriot offense starts to find its post-Moss identity, Tom Brady and Gronkowski are starting to built rapport.  He drops a lot of passes, but he's high risk/high reward

Toss 'em out:

• Bernard Berrian, WR, Min - After putting up solid numbers against Arizona two weeks ago, Berrian didn't play against Chicago with an apparent groin injury.  Berrian's biggest asset is his speed, and if his groin is bothering him, his value drops significantly.  Additionally, with Sidney Rice set to come back next week Berrian should see less balls thrown his way.

Moss Struggles in Titans Debut

Randy Moss (pitching?)

While controversial wideout Randy Moss has been filling the headlines this year, he certainly didn't fill up the box score this Sunday.  Moss was held to one catch for 26 yards in his Titans debut, a career debut low for the well traveled receiver.  In fact Moss historically has some of his best games in his first week with a new squad, averaging 122 yards and at least 1 score in each game.  To be fair, there is still a chance Moss gels with the Titans - he has only been there a week - and quarterback Vince Young should be back for next weeks game against the Redskins.  What Moss and his fantasy owners should be worried about is how Randy is likely to become a major decoy on the field in the Titans offense.  With Vince Young and Chris Johnson in the backfield, Coach Jeff Fisher isn't going to change the game plan to fit Randy Moss.  He knows what they're good at, and thats running the football.  Moss can still be effective stretching the field, taking that extra man out of the box and hauling in the occasional deep ball, but if you ask me, his days of monster numbers are behind him.  At least for the 2010 season.  

Fantasy Advice: 

The fact of the matter is Moss is still a big name, thus he still has some legitimate trade value.  I would recommend trading Moss as soon as possible, the worst thing that could happen is waiting and watching his stock fall after a few unproductive weeks.
