Good morning, Fools. It's cold, drizzly and overcast in Dallas but, as always, it's a beautiful day in Fantasyland.
Lots of news to cover this morning, so let's get right to it…
Arian Foster has been ruled out for today's game in Cleveland, so get ready for the Alfred Blue show. He's a solid RB2 or flex play today.
As mentioned in my Starters/Benchwarmers column on Friday, you should be very wary if you're an Andre Johnson or DeAndre Hopkins owner, given the tough matchup and the first NFL start for their new QB, Ryan Mallett.
There were some worries about Marshawn Lynch's status a couple days ago when he added a rib injury to his ailments, but he is expected to play as usual today. Hopefully he'll go all Beast Mode on the Chiefs today.
We already knew Gio Bernard was out, giving Jeremy Hill at least one more week as the workhorse in Cinci.
Reggie Bush will not be active, leaving the backfield in the hands of Joique Bell and Theo Riddick. They'll have a rough go of it in Arizona.
C.J. Anderson will start for the Broncos today, but Montee Ball will play and could see plenty of action. This may be the only week that Anderson is worth starting; and even now, he's a dicey proposition.
Ryan Mathews will reclaim his starting gig today, and POOF goes Branden Oliver's fantasy value.
By the way, if Josh Gordon is still available in your league (as he is in roughly a third of them), grab him pronto. He's eligible to return to action next weekend!
Delanie Walker is expected to sit out Monday night due to his concussion. Hopefully you have a TE backup plan.
Okay, that's it for now. Heading over to Twitter for the inactives and other late-breaking news, and to answer your questions. Good luck, Fools!
