New Orleans Saints – Fantasy Forecast – Week 13

Cover32LogoNew Orleans Saints 9-2 at Seattle Seahawks 10-1

 

Play ‘Em If You Got ‘Em

Drew Brees

#3 Ranked QB

The Seahawks are currently giving up the 2nd fewest fantasy points to QBs, which might scare Brees owners. You’re starting Brees in this game because you always start your studs. The Seahawks have only faced 3 QBs in the top 15 this year. Brees steps up and finds a way to reward fantasy owners for their loyalty.

 

Jimmy Graham

#2 Ranked TE

You’re starting Graham because you always start Graham. However, the size and strength of the Seahawks cornerbacks could slowdown the best TE in the league. Graham is a freak! Every week he is a threat to go off.


Gut Calls

Pierre Thomas

#21 Ranked RB

Last week against the Falcons, Thomas looked awesome. He is averaging almost 15 fantasy points in last three games. Thomas shows up in “Gut Calls” because the Seahawks defense is crazy good. But with Graham and Stills stretching out the defense, Thomas will have room to run.


Kenny Stills

#63 Ranked WR

The Seahawks cornerbacks are scary, and hopefully covering Colston and Graham leaving Stills open for the deep ball. When you look at the top three WR performances against the Seahawks this is what you see: Cecil Shorts III with 14.3 points, T.Y. Hilton with 26 points and Jarius Wright with 18.9 points. The one thing they all have in common: SPEED. Kenny Stills is exactly the type of WR that has proven successful against the Seahawks defense. We like Stills more then the other WR options.

 

Marques Colston

#34 Ranked WR

Colston has been a fantasy disappointment this year, scoring 10 fantasy points or more only two times. He’s scored a combined 12 points in the last two games and now he gets the 4th best pass defense in the league. With Seattle and their suspension, Colston has a chance to redeem himself.

New Orleans Saints – Fantasy Forecast – Week 11

 

San Francisco 49ers 6-3 at New Orleans Saints 7-2

Play ‘Em If You Got ‘Em

Drew Brees

#1 Ranked QB

Brees threw for 392 yards and 4 TDs last week against the Cowboys. The Cowboys defense is awful, unlike the 49er’s defense. Brees most likely won’t have points in the 30’s but should have a better game than Cam Newton did last week. Brees should never be benched.

 

Jimmy Graham

#1 Ranked TE

So Graham wasn’t in the game much last week since it was a blowout. They didn’t need him and it wasn’t worth aggravating his injury. Why not rest the guy if you can? Fantasy Football!! This week will not be a blowout against a very good defense so Graham will be needed. The only time you bench Graham is if he isn’t playing at all.


Gut Calls

Pierre Thomas, Darren Sproles, and Mark Ingram

#18 Ranked RB, #27 Ranked RB, and #47 Ranked RB

Thomas, Sproles, and Ingram were three of the top five scoring RBs last week. Why not start all of them? The San Francisco defense. One or two of them will most likely score, but we don’t know whom. We like Thomas over the others but this is a real flip of the coin. We won’t tell you to bench them and if you are in a PPR league Sproles and Thomas are must starts. New Orleans game plan is always a mystery.

 

Marques Colston, Kenny Stills, and Lance Moore

#26 Ranked WR, #44 Ranked WR, and #58 Ranked WR

Colston looked great coming back from his injury. He had 107 yards and a TD. Stills had 75 yards and 1 TD while Moore didn’t look as good coming back from an injury with only 1 target for 14 yards. We like all of them but if Stills doesn’t catch a long pass against the 49ers defense then his worth goes down considerably. Moore might get more short passes this week, increasing his worth. Again, the Saints are a mystery.


Bench Warmers

None.
