Dez Bryant, Cowboys –
It's a little disconcerting that the Cowboys are planning to put him back on punt returns full-time, but maybe his conditioning has improved to the point he can handle the extra work. When he's healthy, he's an elite playmaker.

Demaryius Thomas, Broncos–
Thomas returned to action and immediately became Tim Tebow's top target. It's just a matter of time until his next injury, but while he's in the lineup you can get some serious production out of him.

Plaxico Burress, Jets –
Plax has Shonn Greene's ineffectiveness at the stripe to thank for his three short-yardage touchdowns last week. Seems like a solid plan going forward.

Mike Thomas, Jaguars –
Maybe the second-best playmaker on the Jacksonville roster, but his snaps have been reduced with the return of Mike Sims-Walker. Makes no sense to me, either, but that's why the Jags are in the situation they're in.

Jabar Gaffney, Redskins –
Mike Thomas, Jaguars –
With Moss sidelined for a month or more, John Beck is going to need a go-to receiver. Okay, besides tight end Fred Davis.

Antonio Brown, Steelers –
Rashard Mendenhall's struggles mean more passing from Big Ben, and since they all can't go to Mike Wallace Brown's stock is back on the rise. Hines Ward's ankle tweak helps as well.

Hey 2v, thanks for getting this out every Tues nite. I'd like your "unofficial" opinion about Mark Clayton's ranking ASSUMING ALL OF THE FOLLOWING: 1) he comes off the PUP, 2) he is 100% healthy (or close to it), 3) he starts opposite Lloyd, and 4) Bradford is healthy.......where would you rank him? Top 40? I'm asking cuz I'm thinking he's a sneaky pickup to stash on my bench and am curious as to your thought on his potential. Thanks!

Really? Really?

Colston has put up 100 yards two straight weeks with three TD's over that span. Colston is healthy for the first time since week 1, and is killing it. 22 is unreasonably low. Boldon, Lloyd, Marshall, Nelson, and Maclin are no way ahead of him. I can see one of the cowboys WR's being ahead, but not two. Are you guys watching the saints?
