Nate Washington

[Jimmy_22]

Has played very well lately with Britt out and Moss on the other side. Even had a nice 52 yard hookup with Rusty last week. He's getting a lot of love on the CBS projections and others. Is he worth a 3WR slot with Rusty getting the start? Over a 2RB?

 

I think we've all seen this story before. 3rd stringer comes in late in a game - does well - then belly flops the next week when given the start. Obviously, that would effect the WR's.

I'll also ask, how does a reciever get an S2 when the quarterback is a Bench ???

 

QB Rusty Smith - B

As if to test the theory, "Any quarterback can have success against the Titans," along comes Russell Edgar "Rusty" Smith. The first Florida Atlantic Owl ever drafted, Smith made his NFL debut last week after Vince Young went down with an injury. Facing another lousy secondary, Smith completed three of nine passes for 62 yards and an INT. So forgive me if I don't have a ton of faith in Rusty helping your fantasy team this week.

 

WR Nate Washington - S2

Since Kenny Britt went down, Washington has stepped up huge. He had 117 yards last week, a touchdown the week before, and both 117 and a TD the week before that. The run should continue against a Houston secondary that has allowed a 100-yard receiver in five of six and at least one WR TD in six straight.

Rusty may only throw for 150 but 80-90 will go to Nate

I don't see a good reason to play anyone from the Titan passing game this week. The Titans are likely to emphasize the run in the game plan IMO and keep the rookie handing off.
