News Reaction on Carson Palmer (QB - FA) - Carson Palmer retires
With Palmer out and Arians retiring it will be interesting to see if Fitz gives it another go.
Start/Sit Week 15
Give us a player (non tight end) outside of our top 100 Flex that represents a deep sleeper start and tell us why you think he has upside this week.
One deep sleeper for me is Martavis Bryant. The Steelers are at home against a Patriots defense that's been hit or miss. Add in that the Steelers offense is at full strength and I think Bryant has a good shot at getting behind the defense at least once for a big play.
On the flip side, what player inside the top 40 Flex is likely to disappoint fantasy owners this week?
I'd be a little concerned about Larry Fitzgerald. The Cardinals have not played well on the road this year and Washington has generally played well against receivers. Obviously, in PPR you're less concerned, but in Standard leagues, I wouldn't be surprised to see a low yardage day.

News Reaction on Eli Manning (QB - FA) - Eli Manning expected to start Week 14
With Manning back at the helm, I don't believe much changes in terms of Shepard and Engram, so continue to treat them as you have been all year.
News Reaction on Rob Gronkowski (TE - FA) - Rob Gronkowski suspended 1 game for late hit
This was expected, but I expected these targets to be distributed between Amendola, Burkhead, and James White. Burkhead is now an RB2, White a speculative PPR RB3 and Amendola a borderline PPR WR3.
News Reaction on Jimmy Garoppolo (QB - LAR) - Jimmy Garoppolo to start vs Chicago
Garoppolo might be getting his first start as a 49er, but he's not much of a prospect for fantasy football this year. The 49ers offense as a whole isn't high powered enough to make him relevant as anything but a borderline start in 2QB leagues.
News Reaction on Tyrod Taylor (QB - NYJ) - Tyrod Taylor to remain Bills starter in Week 13
If Taylor can hold onto this role, he has some solid matchups coming up down the stretch. He's a borderline QB1 for this coming week against the Patriots.
News Reaction on Michael Crabtree (WR - FA) - Michael Crabtree's suspension reduced to one game
This is great news for fantasy owners. With Cooper potentially missing some time, Crabtree's value is even higher. Corderrelle Patterson becomes an interesting flex play as long as one or both Crabtree and Cooper are out and Jared Cook would be expected to see an uptick in targets, while Lynch sees and an uptick in carries.
Nothing found for Notes
