Tuesday's Take

I hope everyone had a nice holiday weekend. I got to watch my Lions get "carved" up on Thanksgiving by the Titans and at the same time watch Lendale White end my fantasy season in one league. I'm still not sure how I missed the playoffs with a team of Brees, Turner, Parker/Moore, Marshall, S. Moss and Colston and while having the 3rd highest point total, but here I am on the outside looking in. I guess that's fantasy football...mostly luck and this year the majority of mine was bad. Oh well, I'm still here to help those of you who are left. We'll start by looking at a few RBs and WRs that could come up big for you in the playoffs.

Tashard Choice RB DAL - The 2nd DAL rookie RB to have value this year behind Marion Barber, Choice stepped in well for Barber this week and could have more value if Barber's injury is serious. Grab him even if you aren't a Barber owner because anything can happen in the fantasy playoffs, especially on a high-octane DAL offense.

Brandon Jackson RB GBY - Another valuable hand-cuff, Jackson stepped in for Grant this week and ran really well vs a tough CAR D. I'd be happy to grab either of these RBs for their upside alone.

Domenik Hixon WR NYG - This is his second appearance here, but with the new Plaxico Burress news, his value is secure for the rest of the season. Eli looks like he's rounding into playoff form like last year and Hixon looks to be the heir apparent to Burress for this season and possibly next.

Davone Bess WR MIA - As soon as Greg Camarillo was lost for the season, Bess stepped right in and showed his big play potential. Pennington has looked his way early and often in the last 2 games and that shouldn't change anytime soon. MIA has a great schedule ahead and Bess could be a solid #3 WR with upside, especially in PPR leagues.

That's all I've got this week. I'd recommend grabbing your stud's back up, just in case something crazy happens. That means Chester Taylor, Jerious Norwood, Fred Jackson, and the two RBs I mention above shouldn't be on your wire.
