Alex, the 8 year-old-owner of the 7-2 Determinators (Campbell Football League), has offered up his thoughts on players who should put in good performances during Week 10 of the NFL Fantasy Football Season. Do you agree or disagree? Let us know.
- Drew Brees (NO vs. St. Louis)… Brees vs. the Rams defense?? Yes!
- Percy Harvin (MN vs. Detroit)… He’s playing Detroit. That says it all.
- Joe Flacco (Bal vs. Cleveland)… He has been good, 300 yard games, and plays Cleveland.
- RBs… any of these: Chris Johnson (Ten vs. Buf), Adrian Peterson (MN vs. Detroit), or MJD (Jac vs. NYJ)… All of these guys should have big weeks based on who they are playing.
- Defense? Try Baltimore vs. Cleveland and Brady Quinn. Or Maybe New Orleans vs. The Rams.
