QB Tom Brady, New England Patriots
On Monday Night Football, Tom Brady goes against a Buffalo Bills team that seems to have horrible chemistry.
RB Adrian Peterson, Minnesota Vikings

One of the most top heavy positions in fantasy football in 2009 is the tight end position. While there is talent at the top of the list, the talent is relatively shallow. Here is a look at the best of the best in 2009 fantasy football at the tight end position:
1. Tony Gonzalez, Atlanta Falcons
After being underrated the last few seasons in fantasy football, Tony Gonzalez is impossible to ignore right now. He’s on the Falcons now and could have another huge season.
2. Antonio Gates, San Diego Chargers
Even though Antonio Gates struggled with injuries and never seemed to be 100%, …read more

Tony Gonzalez, Kansas City Chiefs
In the 2008 fantasy football season, Tony Gonzalez has been far and away the best tight end in the NFL. Even though the Chiefs have gone through three starting quarterbacks, Gonzalez has remained productive. Going forward, he’s definitely the best tight end to own at this point.

Dallas Clark, Indianapolis Colts
To start the season, Dallas Clark got off to an amazingly slow start. He had all the appearances of a draft bust. But in the middle of the season, he started to turn it around as he recovered from an early season injury. Right now, he may …read more

QB Tony Romo, Dallas Cowboys
Tony Romo has a good matchup against the Seattle Seahawks on Thanksgiving and should be able to put up a very productive fantasy football line. He’s as healthy as he’s been since returning from his broken pinkie and his wide receivers are playing well. At least 250 yards and two touchdowns is what you should expect.
RB Adrian Peterson, Minnesota Vikings
In four out of his last five games, Adrian Peterson has at least one touchdown. That bodes well for his Week 13 game against the Chicago Bears. While the Bears have a solid defense, it isn’t as …read more

QB Peyton Manning, Indianapolis Colts
Although Peyton Manning hasn’t had the best of seasons, he has a very easy matchup in Week 12. Going against the San Diego Chargers, who have statistically the worst pass defense in the NFL, Manning should have a big day. Look for the Colts to pass early and often — as this game has the possiblity of being a shootout.
RB Marion Barber III, Dallas Cowboys
With Tony Romo back at quarterback, running room will open up for Marion Barber. While Romo was out, Barber struggled — which wasn’t too surprising. Against the San Francisco 49ers, look …read more

Santana Moss leaves the competition behind once again.
QB Drew Brees, New Orleans Saints
Playing in London, New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees was phenomenal. Brees finished the game against the San Diego Chargers with 339 yards and three passing touchdowns. He also completed 30 of his 41 pass attempts. Brees has quickly become arguably the best fantasy football quarterback in 2008.
RB Brian Westbrook, Philadelphia Eagles
After missing a few weeks due to injury, Brian Westbrook was back in action and looking 100%. In a dominant performance against the Atlanta Falcons, Westbrook had 167 yards rushing, 42 yards receiving and two total touchdowns. …read more

QB Donovan McNabb, Philadelphia Eagles
Coming off of a bye week, Donovan McNabb should have a fine week in fantasy football. Not only will he be rested, but his wide receiving corps seems to be getting healthy. Expect McNabb to have at least two touchdown passes against the Atlanta Falcons.
RB Clinton Portis, Washington Redskins
Not only has Clinton Portis been the best running back in fantasy football, he is going against the Detroit Lions this week. That combination makes Portis a fantastic start in Week 8. Over a hundred yards and at least on touchdown should be his minimum production.
WR Andre Johnson, …read more

QB Drew Brees, New Orleans Saints
Although the Saints are taking on the Minnesota Vikings, Drew Brees is still a very good start. The Vikings are great against the run but they can struggle against the pass. Expect Brees to throw 40+ times and rack up good fantasy stats.
QB Marion Barber, Dallas Cowboys
Against the Cincinnati Bengals, Marion Barber is sure to get a lot of touches. Coming off of a week where the Cowboys lost in part to Barber not getting enough carries, they’ll be sure to give him the rock early and often in Week 5.
WR Brandon Marshall, Denver Broncos
Brandon …read more
