Jaguars Notes:
Maurice Jones-Drew – Buy-low. He will not be cheap by any means, but some MJD owners could sell a bit cheaper than usual coming off a mediocre week.

Ravens Notes:
Ray Rice – After this week, assuming the Vikes contain Rice a bit, it might be a good time to try and steal Rice away via trade. Rice could explode down the stretch.
Player | Match-Up | Week 6 Projections |
QB Brett Favre | vs. Ravens | 188 pass yds, 1 pass TDs, 1 Ints, 0 rush yds, 0 rush TDs | RB Adrian Peterson | 45 rush yds, 1 rush TDs, 5 rec yds, 0 rec TDs | WR Bernard Berrian | 4 recs, 40 rec yds, 1 rec TDs | WR Percy Harvin | 3 recs, 28 rec yds, 0 rec TDs | WR Sidney Rice | 1 recs, 11 rec yds, 0 rec TDs | TE Visanthe Shiancoe | 1 recs, 8 rec yds, 0 rec TDs |

Giants Notes:
Eli Manning – Monitor his foot. If good to go, he should have a nice day.
Ahmad Bradshaw – Solid flex moving forward, and that might not be giving the kid enough credit.
Player | Match-Up | Week 6 Projections |
QB Drew Brees | vs. Giants | 285 pass yds, 2 pass TDs, 1 Ints, 0 rush yds, 0 rush TDs | RB Pierre Thomas | 65 rush yds, 1 rush TDs, 39 rec yds, 0 rec TDs | RB Reggie Bush | 25 rush yds, 0 rush TDs, 33 rec yds, 0 rec TDs | WR Marques Colston | 5 recs, 70 rec yds, 1 rec TDs | WR Devery Henderson | 4 recs, 70 rec yds, 1 rec TDs | WR Robert Meachem | 3 recs, 49 rec yds, 0 rec TDs | TE Jeremy Shockey | 3 recs, 43 rec yds, 0 rec TDs |

Browns Notes:
Mohamed Massaquoi – Massaquoi should benefit most with the departure of Edwards. This guy has nice upside in dynasty leagues!
Player | Match-Up | Week 6 Projections |
QB Ben Roethlisberger | vs. Browns | 289 pass yds, 2 pass TDs, 0 Ints, 0 rush yds, 0 rush TDs | RB Rashard Mendenhall | 110 rush yds, 1 rush TDs, 25 rec yds, 0 rec TDs | RB Willie Parker | 0 rush yds, 0 rush TDs, 0 rec yds, 0 rec TDs | WR Santonio Holmes | 5 recs, 70 rec yds, 1 rec TDs | WR Hines Ward | 4 recs, 55 rec yds, 1 rec TDs | WR Mike Wallace | 4 recs, 45 rec yds, 0 rec TDs | TE Heath Miller | 3 recs, 40 rec yds, 0 rec TDs |
Steelers Notes:
Ben Roethlisberger – Roethy is a solid fantasy QB1 this week. Solid.
Rashard Mendenhall – FWP is back, but that should not change things.

Redskins Notes:
Jason Campbell – This match-up could make Campbell look better than he is.
Clinton Portis – Good match-up if he is fully healthy. Monitor his health heading into kickoff. Sell-high after this one.
Chris Cooley – With Redskins LT Chris Samuels (neck) out for Week 6, Cooley could do more blocking than route running. He could still grab a score, though.

Eagles Notes:
Donovan McNabb – Solid QB1 moving forward.
DeSean Jackson – Invest if the Jackson owner in your league is doubting him after Week 5. Jackson is an outstanding fantasy WR2 from here on out! Outstanding.

Cardinals Notes:
Kurt Warner – Great start.

Patriots Notes:
Tom Brady – Buy-low. We will not stop saying it. We are only 5 weeks in, Brady will get back to form.
Randy Moss – Our big Brady/Moss projections are starting to become a topic of debate on our fantasy forums… Buy-low and take advantage of this somewhat long, but temporary trend of Moss struggling.
Julian Edelman – The new WR3 in NE.

Falcons Notes:
Michael Turner – Turner could struggle to get the yards, but should find the end zone at least.

Broncos Notes:
Kyle Orton – Orton is getting better and better, we must admit.
Knowshon Moreno – Moreno should get that score and start to look like a low-end fantasy RB2 by the end of this one…
Correll Buckhalter – Banged up. Monitor his health.
Brandon Marshall – The yardage might not be there, but he could get those TDs!
Player | Match-Up | Week 6 Projections |
QB Philip Rivers | vs. Broncos | 249 pass yds, 2 pass TDs, 1 Ints, 0 rush yds, 0 rush TDs | RB Darren Sproles | 65 rush yds, 0 rush TDs, 33 rec yds, 1 rec TDs | WR Vincent Jackson | 6 recs, 88 rec yds, 1 rec TDs | WR Malcom Floyd | 1 recs, 11 rec yds, 0 rec TDs | TE Antonio Gates | 4 recs, 55 rec yds, 0 rec TDs |
