QB Alex Smith, San Francisco 49ers
The Alex Smith Era is back on in San Francisco. The Niners are giving the reins to their team once again to the former number one overall pick. Last week, Smith looked impressive. Perhaps he can actually keep it up and live up to his potential.

RB Jamaal Charles, Kansas City Chiefs
Larry Johnson is doing everything in his power to lose his starting gig in Kansas City. If he succeeds, Jamaal Charles is likely next in line. His breakaway speed would make him an interesting player in fantasy football.

WR Kenny Britt, Tennessee Titans
It looks more and more like Kerry Collins will be out as the Titans starter. If that’s the case, Vince Young may help revive the passing game. As a result, Kenny Britt would then become a lot more valuable.

TE Fred Davis, Washington Redskins
With Chris Cooley an injury question mark, Fred Davis sees his value skyrocket. The Redskins love passing to the tight end and Davis is an adequate receiving threat.

2. Martin Rucker, Missouri
Rucker isn’t very big nor is he very fast but he’s a very solid football player. He’s the type of player who can come up with the big catch when it’s needed most. He’ll need to get stronger to truly flourish in the NFL, though.

3. John Carlson, Notre Dame
Notre Dame had a disastrous season last year, Carlson was one of the few bright spots. He’s a very heady tight end with good athleticism who would be a safe pick in the draft. His stock could rise depending on his combine results.

4. Martellus Bennett, Texas A&M
Bennett has great size at over 6-foot-7 and 252 pounds. His combination of size and athleticism gives him the chance to be as good as anyone on this list. Keep an eye on him as he could start climbing the draft charts.

5. Jermichael Finley, Texas
Finley has a huge amount of talent but was mysteriously underutilized at the University of Texas. Perhaps some of that was his fault but the offense didn’t seem geared to getting him the ball. However, some team in the NFL will take a chance on him.
