TITANS (3-6-0)		BILLS (3-7-0)
Vince Young QB V.Y. is managing the Titans to wins, even if his fantasy numbers aren't saying it. He's thrown some pretty deep passes in recent weeks, but he's really only worth picking up in special league scoring formats.   Projections Cmp/Att PaYd PaTd Int RuYd RuTd FP 13/23 155 1 1 12 0 11.7		Trent Edwards QB Yes, he's missed time with injuries. But to date this season, he's only thrown five scores compared to six picks. He's a bit of a shaky play to say the least.   Projections Cmp/Att PaYd PaTd Int RuYd RuTd FP 15/26 189 1 1 3 0 13.0
Chris Johnson RB He should easily be considered a top candidate for fantasy MVP at the RB position. He tears off long runs with regularity, and no one seems to know how to defend him. He could really prosper here. A very easy start.   Projections RuAtt RuYd RuTd Rec RecYd RecTd FP 20 125 1 2 16 0 19.8		Marshawn Lynch RB He has 217 yards on 70 carries, which is a pretty poor average carry. Lynch never really seems to have gotten going since the early suspension and will probably be a borderline RB2 the rest of this year.   Projections RuAtt RuYd RuTd Rec RecYd RecTd FP 18 61 0 3 30 0 11.5
LenDale White RB The big bruiser hasn't had nearly the same amount of success he did last year. Is he biding his time to play on a new team next year? Either way, he shouldn't really be on anyone's fantasy roster.   Projections RuAtt RuYd RuTd Rec RecYd RecTd FP 9 37 0 0 0 0 5.0		Fred Jackson RB Jackson has his moments, but his numbers are typically below what you'd want, even from an RB3. Use him only in the deepest of leagues out there.   Projections RuAtt RuYd RuTd Rec RecYd RecTd FP 7 28 0 1 5 0 4.5
Nate Washington WR Young has shown nice touch on deep passes, and Washington will start getting onto the end of those whenever he's fully healthy. For now, though, leave him alone.   Projections Rec RecYd RecTd FP 3 30 0       3.9		Lee Evans WR Just when you thought Evans was back on the fantasy map, he kind of disappeared for a few games. At least December isn't too far away, and that's when he really gets it going. For now, though, pass.   Projections Rec RecYd RecTd FP 3 53 0       6.9
Kenny Britt WR The rookie has had a few nice moments, but still clearly has a long way to go. Find another option and reevaluate Britt next year.   Projections Rec RecYd RecTd FP 1 21 0       2.9		Josh Reed WR He has just one touchdown catch this season and has reached 50 receiving yards in just one game. Look elsewhere.   Projections Rec RecYd RecTd FP 2 22 0       3.0
Justin Gage WR Gage isn't a bad guy, but if he is your best option, then you need about 4-5 new options. Leave him on your bench.   Projections Rec RecYd RecTd FP 3 49 0       6.4		Terrell Owens WR The move to Buffalo seems like a temporary one more and more each week. We may very well have already seen his best days. A borderline start nowadays.   Projections Rec RecYd RecTd FP 4 57 0       8.4
Bo Scaife TE He's waiver wire material in just about every league format I can imagine. Just another in a long line of Titans who aren't producing like they did last year.   Projections Rec RecYd RecTd FP 4 34 0       4.5		Shawn Nelson TE Nelson and Derek Fine are both blocking tight ends, not pass catchers. They should both be glued to your waiver wire all year long.   Projections Rec RecYd RecTd FP 1 5 0       0.6
Rob Bironas K He's always been a lethal weapon for this team since they usually like to keep scores low, leaving Bironas to score a majority of their points for them.   Projections XPM/XPA 0-29 30-39 40-49 50+ FP 2/2 1 1 1 0   9.1		Rian Lindell K The volume is there (13-for-15 overall), but both of his misses have come from 40 yards and beyond. If distance isn't an issue in your league, he's your guy/   Projections XPM/XPA 0-29 30-39 40-49 50+ FP 2/2 0 1 1 0   7.5
Titans D/ST They are giving up a lot of yards and points, but they're finally getting healthy again after a disastrous start to the year. With the byes coming to an end after this week, they probably shouldn't be picked up over your regulars.   Projections PA Yds Allowed Sack Int FumR Td FP 18 303 2 1 0 0 5.9		Bills D/ST This unit has 17 sacks and 18 total turnovers, which isn't much to write home about. They do allow a little more yardage than I like sometimes. Be careful playing them.   Projections PA Yds Allowed Sack Int FumR Td FP 22 354 2 1 0 0 4.4
