FANTASY FOOTBALL IN-SEASON FEATURES

Ben Watson, Browns –
Watson continues to move up, as regardless of who is behind center, he’s being targeted all the time, which is a good sign for fantasy owners.  He’s not going to get near the range of the top tier, but he’s a solid option especially during the bye weeks, and in most weeks he’s better than some better known names.

John Carlson, Seahawks –
Carlson is lacking in consistency, and his last two outings have been awful.  There are some nice matchups coming up, so he could bounce back, but this team is tough to figure out and has had more changes on offense since the beginning of the season than most teams do in an entire off season. All in all not news that breeds confidence.

Owen Daniels, Texans –
Daniels is still probably on most waiver wires and with a bye this week he’s not a bad pick up now.  He’s improving every week and seems to be getting back to where he was before his injury, something many didn’t expect.  Look for him to have a strong finish to the season.

Greg Olsen, Bears –
Olsen started out solid over the first four games, but he’s gone without a catch in two games now.  Sure, there’s been quarterback issues, but he wasn’t lighting the world on fire before then, so his overall production isn’t good.  Look for him to be a frustration to fantasy owners the rest of this season.

Donald Lee, Packers –
With Jermichael Finley out for the season, Lee is likely to get the bulk of the TE action for Green Bay, though how much that is remains to be seen.  The upside is that Lee has repeatedly stepped up and performed quietly in years past and can get the job down, so there is no reason to say he won’t again.
