#3 Reggie Bush - (#9 on Fantasy Pros Consensus Rankings)
Reggie gets a good matchup and he is at home. I have previously mentioned (if not here, then on Twitter multiple times) that Reggie plays much better at home. I love this matchup and I think Bush will find a lot of holes and be used heavily in the passing game.
#7 Rashad Jennings - (#14 on Fantasy Pros)
Another where I love the matchup. Dallas has been dreadful vs the run game without Sean Lee. There is some worry that DMC will steal a majority of the carries, but the Raiders say thats not the case, and I believe them. I fully expect 100+ yards and a touchdown here.
#11 Zac Stacy - (#16 on Fantasy Pros)
This is part injury part matchup for most I am sure. Either way, if Zac Stacy is out there, you want to start him. He has been nothing but impressive so far, and there is no reason it should stop even against the 49ers.
#12 Andre Brown - (#5 on Fantasy Pros)
I was surprised I was this far off the consensus here. I really like Andre Brown, I just don't think he is elite. I don't think he is better than Frank Gore. Gore struggled mightily against the Redskins. I'm not saying Brown will struggle, but there are more talented players you can choose from.
#14 Giovani Bernard - (#19 on Fantasy Pros)
I'm not sure if I'm getting sucked into a love of the talent with Bernard or not. But watching him play, its hard to resist. Regardless, a very good matchup and he has had a week of rest, it should bode very well for him.
#16 Frank Gore - (#6 on Fantasy Pros)
Another player I am surprised how low I am on. I look at my top 10 and I feel the only aggressive play is Rashad Jennings, everyone else is so clearly undeniably ahead of Gore this week in my opinion. He hasn't rushed over 100 yards in 5-straight games. Four of those he had a YPC under 4.0. Its a great matchup but you have to wonder if the ancient RB is slowing down as the season goes on.
Deeper Thoughts...My boy C.J. Spiller is in a great matchup and its one of those weeks where he could go off or he could disappoint again. My ranking reflects the point where I feel the reward outweighs the risk. Bobby Rainey faces another tough matchup again. Its possible people might drop him if he does poorly here, keep an eye out for that because I don't think he's done. I like Donald Brown best of the Colts RBs, but I have zero confidence playing either, and you should feel the same way. I still hate Ray Rice. Lamar Miller has been terrible since the O-line debacle, wouldn't even consider playing him. Likewise no faith in Stevan Ridley. After his third straight game with a fumble, I would be very surprised if he is the starter and if he gets more than a few carries. Ranking will change IF we hear otherwise.
