Fantasy Fool: Players to pick up and players to pass on

Here's a look at players worthy for your consideration to add to your team, and others who would look better in someone else's lineup.

Chris Johnson, RB, Cardinals. Johnson is expected to play a lead role in Arizona's backfield while Andre Ellington recovers from his knee injury. Rookie David Johnson, who scored on a 55-yard catch and run, will also be in the mix.

Ronnie Hillman, RB, Broncos. The Broncos looked ragged against the Ravens even before C.J. Anderson left with a sprained toe. Hillman ran hard and surely has earned additional playing time. He's Anderson's proxy for the time being.

James Jones, WR, Packers. Against the Bears, Jones was looking like the same guy that reeled in 14 TD passes from Aaron Rodgers in 2012. Jones finished with four receptions for 51 yards and two scores, but two other touchdowns were overturned by penalty.

Donte Moncrief, WR, Colts. Now that Hilton is in jeopardy of missing time with a knee injury, and with Andre Johnson seemingly having lost several steps, it's Moncrief's time to shine. Rookie Phillip Dorsett may likewise see more targets.

Jordan Reed, TE, Redskins. Kirk Cousins targeted Reed more than any other receiver on Sunday (11 times), at least partly due to the loss of DeSean Jackson (hamstring). There's no reason to think that will change soon.

Brandon McManus, K, Broncos. Got issues at kicker? McManus booted field goals of 57, 56, 43 and 33 yards in the Mile High air. The Broncos offense will presumably find its way into the end zone, but they have a big-footed mop-up man.

Marcus Mariota, QB, Titans. Four TD passes in the first half of his NFL debut, and I'm not recommending that you pick him up? Right. As sharp as he looked against the hapless Bucs defense, I am still convinced that Mariota is destined to struggle more often than not through his rookie campaign. If you are convinced Mariota will defy the odds, go right ahead. But I'll bet you waive him before long.

Dion Lewis, RB, Patriots. With LeGarrette Blount returning from his one-game suspension and the mighty Bills defense on tap next, Lewis' moment in the spotlight may turn out to be a lot like Jonas Gray's.

Percy Harvin, WR, Bills. Harvin is injury prone. He's just getting acquainted with his fourth team over the last four seasons. The Bills' passing attack is very suspect. And he's inconsistent as all get-out. Don't take the bait.

Cole Beasley, WR, Cowboys. Sure, he'll see more targets with Dez Bryant sidelined. But so will Terrance Williams, Lance Dunbar, Jason Witten and the rest of the Cowboys' receivers.
