TIGHT END

Gary Barnidge ($6000) Browns vs. Ravens – Speaking of getting burned, how many people will roster Barnidge again this week after he put up a goose egg in week 1? The simple truth of the matter is that RGIII would rather take off and run himself instead of dumping it off to his TE. In news that surprised absolutely nobody, RGIII is on IR and Josh McCown takes over as the starting QB this week. McCown and Barnidge were an extremely popular combo last season as McCown looked his way more than he probably should. Barnidge torched this Ravens team in both meetings last season and should be an under the radar selection this week.

Jesse James ($4500) Steelers vs. Bengals – I wrote James up in week one calling many to google search this guy to actually find out who he was. He effort in week one was definitely in the unspectacular category as he caught 5 balls for only 31 yards. I actually like that he was quiet enough to keep people off him another week. His price remained at the bare minimum which makes him basically a free square with upside. Big Ben still targeted him 7 times in week 1 and James was on the field for every single snap. At 6’7″, you know his potential in the red zone is there and this seems like the week he finds paydirt.

Others I Like – Delanie Walker ($6600), Eric Ebron ($5500)
