Fantasy Football Week 5

First, a look back at how I did last week:

Players I was correct to like: Johnathan Stewart (TD), Lendale White (TD), Eddie Royal (102 rec yards)

Players I should not have liked: AZ Defense (6TD by Favre), Roddy White, Selvin Young, Chris Perry, Jamal Lewis, Matt Ryan, JT O'Sullivan, Torry Holt

Players I was correct to dislike: Adrian Peterson, Michael Turner

Players I should have liked: McNabb, Griese, Chad Johnson, TO, Jennings, Tampa Bay (DEF Score)

My game picks: 7-6

So, I guess the lesson is to pay attention to my Running Back picks, but not the others.

In any event, here are my week 5 picks:

QB I Like: Delhomme, Matt Ryan, Pennington, Rivers, Eli Manning, Cutler

QB I don't like: Kurt Warner will have several turn overs today

RB I like: Chris Brown, Larry Johnson, Johnathan Stewart, Ryan Grant. Look for Steve Slaton to have a huge game.

RB I don't like: Brandon Jacobs, Clinton Portis, Frank Gore

WR I like: Roy Williams will wakeup this week. Lance Moore against a week MIN pass DEF. Roddy White will take advantage of an injured GB secondary.

WR I don't like: Chad Ocho Cinco and TJ Houshmanzedah will struggle against Dallas. Don't look for Engram or Branch to have solid outings their first week back.

DEF I like: TEN, CAR, BUF, SF

DEF I don't like: BAL, PIT and TB

My game picks with odds at this writing:

Buffalo +1
Carolina -9.5
Chicago +3.5
Cincinatti -16.5
Denver +3
Green Bay NL
Indianapolis -3
Jacksonville -4
San Francisco +3
NY Giants -7
Washington +6
San Diego -6.5
Tennessee -3
New Orleans -3
