Pay or Play Week # 10

Quarterbacks: Joe Flacco, Bal.
Flacco hasn't been putting up eye-popping numbers much lately but that's all about to change. With the Ravens set to travel to Cleveland, expect Flacco to put up a big game. The first time these two met in week #3, Flacco torched the Ravens for a career high 342 yards passing and a score.

Oh so close: Matt Hasselbeck, Sea.
You might be asking why I'm putting this guy here. The Seahawks are still in disarray. And in Week #6 when the Seahawks welcomes the Cards to Seattle, they were almost shut out losing 27-3. This week will be different. With Hasselbeck finally healthy I expect him to put up respectable numbers.

Running backs: Ray Rice, Bal.
I usually don't like to have fantasy studs on this list, however there are still a few owners not on who do not consider this old Rutgers star. When the Ravens saw the Browns in week #3, Rice was still splitting carries with Willis McGahee. Now Rice is the guy. Expect big things.

Oh so close: Pierre Thomas, N.O.
Similar to Rice, there are still some owners not believing in this guy, bases on the 20% of ESPN owners who still have this guy on their bench. This guy may be the most underrated consistent running back in football.

Wide receivers: Sidney Rice, Min.
Rice may be the best Rice on this board. Well probably not, but he is the best pass catcher the Vikings have. This guy is also Favre's most trusted target, and they're going to see the Lions this week. Enough said.

Oh so close: Nate Burleson, Sea.
Burleson has finally lived up to his hype. This season, Burleson has become a trusted target for Hasselbeck as well a play maker. This week I expect the trend to continue.

Tight ends: Brent Celek, Phi.
Celek has only had less than 3 fantasy points and 3 receptions once. Another safety valve for McNabb in a high octane passing offense. Celek also has touchdowns in his last two games. He's a safe start.

Oh so close: Jeremy Shockey, N.O..
Shockey has redeemed himself and his career after falling short the last few seasons in New York. He's went for over 200 yards his last three games and with the Saints ready to take on the lowly Rams, he's a good start this week.

Defense: Jets
The Jets will see the Jaguars this week. With the Jaguars inept offense, expect the Jets to contain Jones-Drew and go on to win this game big.

Oh so close: Dolphins
The Dolphins have been an up-and-down team all season long. Winning some big games, and losing some games they should have won. However this week in a battle of South Florida, expect the Dolphins to hold the Bucs and their rookie quarterback to low points.
