In this weekly column I'll highlight some top IDP options that aren't always “must-start” players. I'll also hit on some of the players most likely to disappoint in week 8.
Here’s complete season and weekly projections that can be customized to your league’s scoring for all those tough start/sit calls. For specific questions you can always ask me via twitter @NateNFL.
Defensive Line
Start
Cameron Jordan DE1 vs BUF
The Buffalo offense is one of the top matchups for defensive linemen. As a 3-4 end Jordan is only projected at a half sack. However, he could push close to six solo tackles and a couple assists which correlates to a top 10 performance.
Osi Umenyiora DE1 vs ARI
Umenyiora has been alternating between impact performances and complete duds. This week he'll be looking to sack the sluggish Carson Palmer. Rotoworld compared Palmer's pocket mobility to a sumo wrestler this past week. Look for an impact performance against the Cardinals in the desert.
