Question 1:

How does Marvin Harrison sitting and Anthony Gonzalez playing affect Gonzalez' ranking? Thursday night game too.


Rick Cwik [LEMONT, IL]

A:

I like Gonzalez. I think he's better than Harrison -- younger, faster and more explosive. It happens. Michael Turner got better than LaDainian Tomlinson, Terrell Owens got better than Jerry Rice, and Darth Vader got better than Obi-Wan Kenobi.

So I expect Gonzalez to not only fill in for Harrison, but to put better numbers as well. I think he could be one of week 16's big players. On my board, I've got him down for 69 yards and almost a 50 percent probability of a touchdown, making him one of the top dozen receivers on the board. (Officially -- 7th in TD-only, 11th in standard format, 14th in PPR).

The injury to Harrison should also help Dallas Clark and Reggie Wayne -- bumps them up just a little.

Before, there were four primary pass catchers competing for balls, now there are just three.

I do not believe the Harrison injury really affects Peyton Manning either way.

Thank you Fantasy Index for rating Deshaun Foster and Matt Forte so high week 16, it cost me the championship! I could have played DeAngelo Williams and Brandon Jacobs or even Willis McGahee, what were you thinking? Damn!
