QB Eli Manning, New York Giants
Although the Giants lost, it wasn’t due to Eli Manning. Peyton’s little brother finished with 391 passing yards and three touchdown passes.

RB Chris Johnson, Tennessee Titans
There’s no doubt that Chris Johnson is the best player in fantasy football this season. He proved it again by scoring three more touchdowns in Week 14 while racking up the yardage.

WR Brandon Marshall, Denver Broncos
Not only was Brandon Marshall’s performance the best of the week, it was one of the best performances of all-time. He set an all-time record by catching 21 passes for 200 yards and two touchdowns.

TE Dallas Clark, Indianapolis Colts
Even though Dallas Clark only had five catches for 43 yards, three of those five catches were for touchdowns. That made his fantasy owners very, very happy this week.

QB Kurt Warner, Arizona Cardinals
So far, Kurt Warner has had a relatively quiet season. But in Week 9, he was great. He finished with 261 passing yards and five touchdowns passes.

RB Michael Turner, Atlanta Falcons
To help power the Falcons over the Redskins, Michael Turner had 166 rushing yards and two touchdowns on only 18 rushing attempts.

WR Larry Fitzgerald, Arizona Cardinals
It’s not too surprising that Larry Fitzgerald was Warner’s main target. Fitzgerald had nine receptions for 123 receiving yards and two touchdowns.

TE Dallas Clark, Indianapolis Colts
It’s becoming more and more obvious that Dallas Clark is the most productive tight end in fantasy football. In Week 9 of the 2009 fantasy football season, Clark had 14 catches for 119 yards.

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%, he was still solid in 2008. Expect a better year this season.

3. Jason Witten, Dallas Cowboys
With Terrell Owens gone to Buffalo, Jason Witten will likely become the number one receiver in Dallas. Tony Romo loves throwing to him so expect big things.

4. Dallas Clark, Indianapolis Colts
Injury is a concern but Dallas Clark is a very good option when he’s healthy. His ceiling is extremely high this season — especially with Marvin Harrison out of the picture.

5. Owen Daniels, Houston Texas
Even though he gets no pub, Owen Daniels is a very solid tight end. He offers a solid point producer in fantasy football at a premium position.

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 arguably be the hottest tight end in the league.

Antonio Gates, San Diego Chargers
While Antonio Gates has still been a top flight tight end this season, he’s starting to lose his fantasy football luster. He’s no longer a dominating force and as of late, he’s been extremely average. He doesn’t have a touchdown grab since Week 10.

Jason Witten, Dallas Cowboys
Compared to last season, Jason Witten has underperformed. Part of the blame is due to a rib injury that has robbed him of some of his explosiveness. Plus it didn’t help that Tony Romo also missed some time earlier in the season with a pinkie injury.

RB Dominic Rhodes, Indianapolis Colts
The Colts were without Joseph Addai in Week 15. No worrise, Dominic Rhodes was more than able to pick up the slack against the Detroit Lions. Rhodes finished Week 15 with two touchdowns to go along with 116 yards.

WR Andre Johnson, Houston Texans
Andre Johnson had a huge game against the Tennessee Titans in Week 15. In the first half alone he had 150 yards receiving and a touchdown. In the second half he added more than 50 yards to finish the game with 207 yards receiving and a TD.

TE Dallas Clark, Indianapolis Colts
If you had Dallas Clark on your Week 15 fantasy team, you are very happy. Clark had a monster game — finishing with 12 catches for 142 yards and a touchdown. Both the catches and the yardage are easily season-highs for Clark.

RB Ryan Grant, Green Bay Packers
Slowed by injuries early on, Ryan Grant has been a bust so far in the 2008 fantasy football season. But his schedule gets easier and he seems to be healthy, so he should become halfway decent soon.

WR Randy Moss, New England Patriots
Many fantasy owners have written off Randy Moss after the loss of Tom Brady. While his value certainly has suffered, expect him to step it up in forthcoming weeks as Matt Cassel adjusts.

TE Dallas Clark, Indianapolis Colts
In Week 1, Dallas Clark got injured. Combine that with a bye week and it seems like the fantasy world has forgotten about Clark. However, as Peyton Manning gets healthier, expect Clark to produce.

He didn’t play in Week 1 but expect Javon Walker to put on his Raiders jersey and play in Week 2.

Word out of New England is that Tom Brady has suffered a torn ACL and is out for the season. If true, this is obviously devastating news to both the Patriots and fantasy owners.

Vince Young, Tennessee Titans
A few reports are saying that Vince Young has torn his MCL in his knee. If true, the knee injury will sideline Young for around a month.

Brodie Croyle, Kansas City Chiefs
After suffering a shoulder injury, Brodie Croyle left the game for the Chiefs. Early indications point to him missing at least a few weeks.
