Stock Up! Stock Down… in the NFL – Week 6

Football Sunday is nearly upon us. Fantasy lineups and DFS rosters must be finalized. Whether you’re hedging your bets or sitting on the fence CPGM offers player/fantasy news via Stock Up! Stock Down…

Stock UP!

  • WR T.Y. Hilton and WR Phillip Dorsett of the Indianapolis Colts assuming CB Kareem Jackson of the Houston Texans misses the Sunday Night game (game time decision).
  • QB Matthew Stafford, WR Marvin Jones, and WR Anquan Boldin of the Detroit Lions as 75% of the Rams starting defensive line will be a game time decision and CB Trumaine Johnson has been ruled out.
  • WR Jamison Crowder as Washington is expected to play more 3-wide sets if TE Jordan Reed cannot play (concussion protocol).
  • WR Eli Rogers and TE Jesse James of the Pittsburgh Steelers in a plus matchup against the Miami Dolphins. WR Markus Wheaton has been ruled out and WR Sammie Coates is dealing with a broken finger and laceration on his hand.
  • TE Dennis Pitta of the Baltimore Ravens. WR Steve Smith Sr. is not expected to play in Sunday’s matchup against the New York Giants.
  • RB Jonathan Stewart of the Carolina Panthers expected to return from a hamstring injury in a plus matchup against the New Orleans Saints.
  • RB James White of the New England Patriots. QB Tom Brady is back.
  • WR Randall Cobb of the Green Bay Packers. RB James Starks has been ruled out; RB Eddie Lacy isn’t 100%; Cobb has been announced as Lacy’s primary back-up for the Week 6 games against the Cowboys; and Cobb will face rookie CB Anthony Brown in the slot.
  • RB Justin Forsett of the Detroit Lions. Newly acquired but running backs: Dwayne Washington, Theo Riddick and Ameer Abdullah will miss the Week 6 contest against the L.A. Rams.

Stock Down…

  • QB Kirk Cousins of the Washington Redskins assuming TE Jordan Reed does not play (concussion protocol). Cousins has a 14:13 TD/INT ratio without Reed in the lineup (32:12 with Reed).
  • RB Theo Riddick of the Detroit Lions has been ruled out for Week 6.
  • RB LeGarrette Blount (sell) of the New England Patriots. QB Tom Brady is back. Even if Blount has a big game in Week 6 against the Bengals. Sell.
