Tier 1: Robert Griffin III, QB, Redskins. The Broncos allow the most fantasy points per game to quarterbacks, and Griffin will do his best to keep up with Peyton Manning.
Tier 2: Colin Kaepernick, QB, 49ers. Kaepernick flashed a little more running last week, and he should get what he wants against winless Jacksonville.
Tier 3: Jordy Nelson, WR, Packers. He’s Aaron Rodger’s go-to guy, and he has three TDs in his last three games against Minnesota.
Tier 4: Knowshon Moreno, RB, Broncos. The Redskins allow a league-high 23.2 fantasy points per game to running backs, and Moreno is the lead dog in Denver.
Tier 5: Larry Fitzgerald, WR, Cardinals. Atlanta is an open door for receivers, and Carson Palmer will lock on to his best receiver at home. Expect season-best totals.
Tier 6: Stevan Ridley, RB, Patriots. Ridley has three TDs the last two weeks, and he’s averaging 4.1 yards per carry. Expect an increase in value in the coming weeks.
Tier 7: Jarrett Boykin, WR, Packers. “Cobb Lite” had 10 targets, eight catches and 103 yards in his debut as a starter. Who else is Rodgers going to throw to?
Tier 8: Terrance Williams, WR, Cowboys. Williams is a better-and-healthy version of Miles Austin, and he’s scored in three straight games.
