Mates, here's what I am thinking...feel free to chip in.

Your top scoring fantasy QB will be: Cam Newton - I know that he's got poo for receivers and that offense really sucks, but he's going against the Jags. Cam has Olsen, he gets points for all of the J-Stew dumpoffs, and he's still Carolina's goal line back. Watch him blow up this week. WATCH!

Your top scoring fantasy RB will be: Demarco Murray - May not be so bold, but there were 7-10 RBs taken before him in most leagues. That Eagles offense is no joke. I expect Mathews to get some quality touches, but Murray finna eat vs that terrible ATL D.

Your top scoring fantasy WR will be: Jeremy Maclin - Mates, I know KC didn't have a WR score a TD all last year. You know who else knows that? Alex Smith and Andy Reid. Look for a Return of the Mac ( ) against the Texans.

Your top scoring fantasy TE will be: Obv choice is Gronk, but if we are going with the BOLD predictions, I'm going with the other TE in this matchup, Heath Miller. No Bell, no Bryant, hungry Miller = football feast. Here's another one for you...Scott Chandler, the other NE TE, will score double digit PPR points tonight and be a top 10 TE this week.

Your top scoring fantasy Def will be: Don't care.

Highest scoring rookie of the week?? Mates, here's a bit of a shocker...I predict Duke Johnson will have more points than any other rookie this week in PPR. He is already the best skill position player for Cleveland. Got a feeling he will have 20+ purnts this week.

Fantasy Bust O'the week: Russell Wilson - Drafted as a top 3 QB in most leagues, I think he will struggle against STL in the opener, giving reason for all of you anti-Christians to cheer.

Before I start, are these bold or just predictions?

Eli will have more passing yards than any other QB

Cunningham rushes for 100 yards

Fitzgerald will have the most receiving yardage

Austin Seferian-Jenkins leads all TEs in receptions AND TDs

Dion Lewis scores the first TD of the 2015 season

Ill play

QB - Marcus Mariota turns in a top 5 day... we've seen a rookie QB blow up in his debut(Cam, RGII) more than once. MM torches Tampa

RB - Latavius Murray is the top scoring back. Improved o-line, Amari Cooper, and the Bengals run D suckage open it up for him.

WR - Julio Jones tops 40 PPR points... hes healthy, hes a beast, and the game will be a shoot out

TE - Kyle Rudolph top scoring TE. Rudolph is a huge redzone target and Teddys blanket... and I believe in Teddy.

Bust of the week: DeAngelo Williams

ETA for reference, ESPN has Cam ranked the 18th QB in projected points this week, Murray 8th RB, Maclin 21st WR, Miller 5th TE (kind of surprised there) Scott Chandler not in the top 30 TE and Duke Johnson the 27th RB. That ain't bold enough for ya??

Without looking at the projections they all seemed feasible

Top QB- Carson Palmer. You get a TD, and you get a TD, and you get a TD, and you get TD. Yap, that's 4, plus 350 yrds against an awful Saints secondary.


Top RB- Lesean McCoy. Will be fed the ball against a porous Indy defense. He will break off a large TD. Write that down.


Top WR- Randall Cobb. He will get 14 targets, catch 9 of 'em for a buck fitty and a touch.

Top TE - Ladarius Green. Bold prediction is he catches 3 TDs. Then burns owners the rest of the season.

Highest Rookie of the Week: Nelson Agholor. Vegas says there's 8 TDs to be had on MNF. Nelson Mandela Agholr will be apartheid of 2.

Fantasy Bust of the Week: CJ Anderson. Why you no score points when I draft you so high!!?!

i'm into deep sleepers that no one thinks about. They aren't as important in week 1, but I still like to try and uncover a few. Here are a few that made the list.

QB

Blake Bortles- owned in just 8% of ESPN leagues. 2 of Carolina's top 3 CBs are injured. Allen Robinson & Hurns look to blow the top off. Bortles is also an accomplished runner, which is something to watch out for all season.

RB

Tim Hightower- I know he DNP today, but i think it was more of a rest day for him. People are asking who will fill the pass catch role with Spiller out, and i hear a lot of people talking about Khiry & Marcus Murphy. BUT...Hightower once caught 64 passes in a season. Ive been asking all preseason why they are keeping this guy around, and this is all i can think of.

WR

Ted Ginn- you're WR1 in Carolina, can catch a short pass & house it, or just flat out run by defenders deep. Who else will catch balls here? Ted Ginn, deep sleeper.


TE

Josh Hill- post hype guy was getting a ton of attention in July, but people think Watson has passed him up. Watching Saints games and still seeing him get some 1st team snaps, tells me he will play a good bit. Nice athlete, big red zone target. Keep an eye out.

*note I had Scott Chandler here, but didnt want to piggyback on OP's shite.


quote:

Your top scoring fantasy QB will be


Matt Stafford- Flying 'cross country, throws too many picks, yada yada yada. He has his full compliment of WRs, a new addition at RB. He'll look Calvin's way early and ofter against San Diego's collection of midget DBs.


quote:

Your top scoring fantasy RB will be


Jonathan Stewart at JAX- with no WRs, Panthers will go to Stewart early and often. Also adept at catching the ball, he should rack up points in a PPR setting.

quote:

Your top scoring fantasy WR will be:


Allen Hurns- going back to the well, Hurns beats Carolina's DBs DEEP for 2 scores. 160yrd, 2 TDs

quote:

Your top scoring fantasy TE will be:


Jordan Reed- Cousins likes him, he's produced when healthy. Look for a big game here.


quote:

Highest scoring rookie of the week??


Tyler Lockett. SEA will get him the ball in space, and he'll bust some long plays with good downfield blocking

quote:

Fantasy Bust O'the week:


TY Hilton. Welcome to the world of multiple mouth feeding .

Sure, I didn't say unrealistic predictions. Not many are saying those guys will be the tops in their positions this week. Play along here...

If he's out, I'll sling some love Delanie Walker's way.
