In advance of week 1, Defying Fantasy chimes in with the Baller or Brady Baller series.
This segment is to give insight on fantasy football’s top performers for each week. If he’s going to be a stud for the week, he’s just that…a Baller. If they aren’t projected to produce legit fantasy points, stay away from these players, their match ups are not favorable for your starting line-up. These players are not ballers, they’re not a legit play for the week, hence Brady Baller. You know, not exactly regulation. Do you get it yet? Com’ on people “deflate gate”, flat balls, now you’re with me!! No disrespect to the great Tom Brady, we’re just having a little fun here at Defying Fantasy.
BALLER OF THE WEEK
Aaron Rodgers vs Jags, I know the Jags have made several offseason moves on defense. However, Jordy’s back, Cobb is healthy, and Rogers is ready to unleash hell on any defense that stands in his way.
BALLERS | BRADY BALLERS | |
Ben Roethlisberger vs Washington | Andy Dalton vs Jets | |
Drew Brees vs Raiders | Ryan Fitzpatrick vs Bengals | |
Andrew Luck vs Lions | Phillip Rivers vs Chiefs | |
Eli Manning vs Cowboys | Jay Cutler vs Texans | |
SLEEPERS | ON THIN ICE | |
Tyrod Taylor vs Ravens | Cam Newton vs Broncos | |
Matthew Stafford vs Colts | ||
Derek Carr vs Saints |
Tread carefully on this ice. Cam was the number one fantasy player last year and most analyst are predicting him to repeat as such. However, we all know the Broncos have the best defense in football, possessing the weapons needed to shut down the Panthers high octane offense.
