Joe Flacco- Baltimore Ravens

The Ravens will likely let Flacco throw more in an attempt to make the offense less one-dimensional. ~Sporting News NFL

Trader Take: However, don’t read that as a ringing endorsement that Flacco will be neck and neck with other slingers on the top 12 fantasy bubble. While the second year quarterback will likely attempt more than the 428 passes he did last year, Baltimore will continue to “dance with the one that brought them” by running the ball heavily. Flacco remains no better than a fantasy backup this year.

Santonio Holmes- Pittsburgh Steelers

Holmes has beefed up to 201 lbs. in an attempt to play more physically against opposing cornerbacks. ~Pittsburgh Tribune

Trader Take: Holmes is someone you’re going to want to have on your squad. If adding the weight makes him stronger without sacrificing any speed, then look for him to significantly improve upon his totals of 55 catches and five touchdowns from last season. He’ll be an excellent fantasy WR3.
