Fantasy Football: Stock rising, stock falling

Stock rising

QB Brett Favre, Minnesota: This pains me to type because I’ve been dogging the old man since day 1 of this blog back in July. But he is a must-start guy weekly after the Vikings return from this week’s bye. He’s not the wild gunslinger of days past, but he’s sharp and very effective and very capable of giving you 18-20 points a week.

— MATT DOYLE

Stock rising

Cleveland Browns opponents: We knew they were bad, but they made the Bears look like a superpower. Do what you can to pick up the defense the Browns play against each week. This team is not getting any better and will be a possible shutout each week — which in some scoring systems equals big points.

— JASON COLLINGTON

Sell high

Qb Tony Romo, Dallas: Romo has strung together three good games, he has a real No. 1 receiver in Miles Austin and he still has some big games ahead this year. That all said, his three big games recently were against teams ranked 28th, 31st and 18th in pass defense. Of Dallas’ last nine games, seven are against teams in the top 10 against the pass.

Buy low

RB Willis Mcgahee, Ravens: He is now worth cutting, thanks to Ray Rice, but there is a lot of season to go. If Rice gets hurt, McGahee is prime to blow up. He showed in the first few weeks what he can do. I don’t like him, but he’s a cheap pick up who could give you some much needed points -- especially if Ravens qualify for the
playoffs early and he gets garbage time.
