Fantasy Football Guru--??
With the signing by the Vikes of Josh Freeman, combined with the Ponder injury and Cassel's history of ineffective-ness, plus the fact Freeman was signed at over double what Ponder and Cassel are making; Can Josh Freeman bring Jennings, Rudolph, Simpson and/or Patterson onto the weekly fantasy radar?
My first thought is yes, although it's going to take a few weeks, and unfortunately the Vikes already had their bye, so no free weeks to get familiar with the offense. Granted, the Vikes will always hinge on getting Peterson the ball, and it's not like Freeman was stellar the past couple years. But, Tampa was also a primarily run based offense, and he did well enough to keep VJAX and Mike Williams in the picture. So once he gets at least half the playbook down, I think Jennings goes from bench material to a Marco pay WR2 or decent flex, Rudolph should be a weekly option again, and there might even be hope of Patterson finally showing enough to warrant a spot on the end of your bench.
Anyone else?
