Justin Blackmon #9 / Cecil Shorts #20 - Ranked 26th and 28th on ESPN
This Jaguars offense with Chad Henne is bad, but not terrible. Henne is actually a huge upgrade over Blaine Gabbert for both receivers. I really do believe Blackmon outscores at least two of the three Denver WRs this week. They should fall behind early and throw a ton in this game.

Denarius Moore #16 - Ranked 34th on ESPN
I was very surprised to see him so low. He has developed a very good connection with Terrelle Pryor. Part of the low ranking on the part of ESPN is due to the matchup I'm sure. But in his last two games with Pryor, Moore has recorded at least 84 yards and a TD. He is almost a must-start every week at this point.

Greg Jennings #19 - Ranked 31st on ESPN
This is under the assumption Matt Cassell is throwing to him. I believe in the good play even if it only came on four targets. This is Cassell's last chance to prove he is a starter, and I believe he will play well under that pressure.

Vincent Jackson #29 - Ranked 17th on ESPN
This comes down to what you think of Mike Glennon. Jackson got a lot of targets last week and they were either bad throws or bad chemistry. I'm not sure how much a bye week helps this duo.

Steve Smith #30 / Ted Ginn #31 - Ranked 21st and 55th on ESPN
As usual Ted Ginn gets no love, but he continues to perform at a reliable level, and better than Steve Smith. Through 4 games, Smith has been targeted more, but Ginn has more yards and touchdowns. Cam Newton loves to target Ginn deep which makes him a good play any week. For whatever reason, the high number of targets hasn't led to improved numbers for Smith. He's bound to break through for a big game eventually which is why I ranked him higher, but I still like Ginn's talent better at this point.

Quick Shots: I'm down but not out on Kenbrell Thompkins, he isn't startable this week, but I'm not dropping him. Julian Edelman on the other hand probably is droppable. I own him in one league, but I'm holding out one more week to see how he does. Kendall Wright & Michael Floyd are ranked consecutively on my list, and I think both have a decent shot at a touchdown this week if you need a sleeper. Tavon Austin is droppable if you need to add someone else, so is Chris Givens in 10 or 12 team leagues. Greg Little has deep threat potential in a really deep league. Steve Johnson is so low because he did not practice this week because of personal matters, he has had no time with new QB Thad Lewis. He might do well, but its not worth the risk even if you don't have great options elsewhere. Same with Robert Woods.

As always, I'd love your feedback. Good or bad. Leave a comment or tweet me @LopsidedTrades!
