| QUARTERBACKS - Tony Romo is listed as questionable, but Dallas may opt to go with Brad Johnson in a weaker matchup against St. Louis. Johnson isn’t that attractive, but you might be able to get away with one week. Matt Schaub lit the Dolphins up last week and squashed any QB change suggestions. He gets another beauty against the Lions this time out.

|
| RUNNING BACKS - Willie Parker suffered a setback and will miss Week 7. Mewelde Moore gets another crack, this time against the struggling Bengals. Larry Johnson is suspended, so the Chiefs will go with Kolby Smith and Jamaal Charles. Neither looks good with a tough matchup against Tennessee.
|
|
| WIDE RECEIVERS - Roy Williams was traded to Dallas for 3 draft picks. It’s obviously a much better situation, but it may take a few weeks for him to get in the swing of things. Vincent Jackson’s value shot up this week with Chris Chambers being listed as doubtful.
|
|
| TIGHT ENDS - It finally looks like Jeremy Shockey will return this week. Owners need to make sure he is healthy before dropping their backup. Also, the Saints have a bye week coming up in Week 9. Kellen Winslow also says he is ready to return from his recent ailment.
|
|
| KICKERS - After going 4 for 7 in field goal attempts for the first 3 games, Shaun Suisham is went 8 for 8 in his last 3 games. Shayne Graham is listed as questionable. The Bengals signed Dave Rayner as insurance in case Graham can’t go.
|
|
| DEFENSE/SPECIAL TEAMS - Two teams coming off of a bye, Tennessee & Pittsburgh, have great matchups against the Chiefs and Bengals respectively. Although the Houston squad hasn’t done much this year, they have a good opportunity against the Lions this week. |
