QB Matt Cassel, New England Patriots
Matt Cassel has looked so good at times this year for the Patriots that some fans are even considering the possibility of trading Tom Brady. While that talk is obviously crazy, Cassel was good again in Week 15. He finished the game against the Oakland Raiders with 218 yards and four touchdown passes.
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.

QB Brad Johnson, Dallas Cowboys
If Tony Romo misses any action, Brad Johnson should be able to fill in decently enough. Against a poor defense, Johnson is a good start even at his old age due to all the offensive weapons at his disposal. However, be aware that Romo is necessarily out for Week 7 so you should still follow that storyline closely.
RB Dominic Rhodes, Indianapolis Colts
With Joseph Addai out approximately 2-to-4 weeks, Dominic Rhodes will step into a starter’s role. Although he isn’t as good as Addai, Rhodes runs hard and should be able to produce. He’s a decent RB2 …read more

Dominic Rhodes spent his first five years in the NFL with Indianapolis Colts. He left the Colts last season after their Super Bowl victory to join the Oakland Raiders. With Oakland, Rhodes barely saw the field – finishing with 302 yards and one touchdown.
After the Raiders drafted Darren McFadden in the 2008 NFL Draft, Oakland decided to waive Rhodes. Rhodes is now a free agent who is able to sign with any team of his choosing. At 29 years of age and relatively little wear and tear, Rhodes should generate some interest.

QB Brodie Croyle, Kansas City Chiefs
Truth be told, Croyle hasn’t been very good this season. He lost the starting job in preseason and when he’s gotten a chance to play during the season, he hasn’t done anything of note. That said, the Chiefs are playing against the struggling Detroit Lions this week. If Croyle is ever going to play well, now could be the time. If you are desperate QB, pick him up.
RB Dominic Rhodes, Oakland Raiders
With Justin Fargas getting hurt on Sunday, the starting job in Oakland looks to be headed into Rhodes’ hands. …read more

Do you have bye week or injury troubles? Here are some players you can pickup and start right away in your fantasy football leagues.
Quarterback: Cleo Lemon, Miami Dolphins
Lemon is subbing for an injured Trent Green. Playing against the Browns this week, Lemon is a quality start. The Dolphins have good wide receivers and a running back in Ronnie Brown that will keep defenses honest. Lemon doesn’t have great long-term value, however for at least one week he should have some fantasy worth.
Running back: Justin Fargas or Dominic Rhodes, Oakland Raiders
All indications point to LaMont Jordan not playing. If that’s …read more
