Arizona Cardinals at Tennessee Titans
Play ‘Em If You Got ‘Em
Delanie Walker
Not Ranked TE
Walker practiced in full on Wednesday for the first time in over a week after he suffered a concussion. He’s still risky, so listen to the injury report Sunday morning, but he could be the sneakiest play of the week. First of all, the news of his return to practice is so new we didn’t rank him, so he might be on the waiver wire if someone had to drop him for a healthy player. Second, Arizona gives up the absolute most fantasy points to opposing TEs. They are TERRIBLE against TEs. It’s actually almost weird. Walker is a risk worth taking, but we stress, he is a risk.
Gut Calls
Chris Johnson
#24 Ranked RB
The exact opposite is true for RBs. Arizona gives up the absolute fewest points to opposing RBs so we ranked Johnson lower than usual. Last week he only rushed for 46 yards, but he did score one TD. He also caught two passes for nine yards. There’s always the potential of the “big play” with Johnson, but Arizona seems to shut that down for most players. You probably have to start him, but we’re nervous.
For Your Consideration: Tennessee Defense, Justin Hunter (WR)
Bench Warmers
Kendall Wright
#36 Ranked WR
Thanks for the info Coach. On Monday Coach Munchak revealed what all Wright fantasy owners suspected – he’s hurt! Not only is he hurt, but supposedly he suffered both ankle and shoulder injuries. Raise your hand if you wish you knew that before setting your lineup Sunday… Anyway, he’s too risky to play in the playoffs, but we love him for next year. Sadly, this also takes Fitzpatrick and Hunter down a peg. They need Wright as a threat to get that offense going.
Also Do Not Play: Ryan Fitzpatrick (QB)
