Fantasy Football Starts and Sits Week 12
Starts
Eli Manning
Manning has been one of the more consistent quarterbacks this season. In week 12 he has a solid match-up against division rival Washington who is giving up the eighth most points to quarterbacks this season.
Jameis Winston
Winston is coming off one of the best performances by a rookie quarterback. Now in week 12 he has a solid match-up vs the Colts who have been generous to quarterbacks this season.
Alfred Blue
This week Blue can be your boy and is a solid start in week 12. He’s facing the Saints who are giving up the third-most points to running backs this season.
Chris Johnson
Johnson has been a solid play most of the season. In week 12 he is going up against division rival San Fran who just gave up 100 plus yards and three touchdowns last week. Johnson should be a solid play this week.
Travis Benjamin
Benjamin has been one of the best waiver wire pickups this season. In week 12 he has a great match-up against the Ravens who are giving up the most points to wide receivers this season.
Martavis Bryant
Since coming back from his suspension Bryant has been producing solid numbers. Seattle will try and take away Brown so Bryant should have the opportunity to produce in week 12.
Jordan Reed
When healthy, Reed has been one of the best tight ends in the league. This week he is going up against the Giants who are giving up the fourth most points to players at the position this season.
Gary Barnidge
Barnidge has been one of the best tight ends this season. With Josh McCown as the starter he will be targeted more. He also has a solid match-up in week 12 against the Ravens.
Sits
Tony Romo
Romo’s first game back from injury was a decent one. This week he has a tough match-up in week 12 against Carolina who are giving up the third fewest points to quarterbacks this season.
Andy Dalton
Dalton has been a solid quarterback this season. In week 12 he goes up against the Rams who are giving up the second fewest points to quarterbacks this season.
Lamar Miller
Miller has been up and down this season and in week 12 it could be a struggle against a Jets team giving up the sixth fewest points to running backs this season.
Matt Jones
Jones has shown flashes of talent this season but has had trouble holding onto the ball. In week 12 he is going up against division rivals Giants and he should be on your bench.
Sammy Watkins
Watkins has been one of the biggest busts this season. In week 12 he is going up against the Chiefs which is a good match-up but Watkins is hard to trust.

Diggs has been the best wide receiver in Minnesota this season. However, in week 12 he is going up against the Falcons who are giving up the third fewest points to wide receiver this season.
Travis Kelce
Kelce is one of the most talented tight ends in the NFL, but he is inconsistent. This week he’ll have to deal with a Bills defense that gives up the sixth fewest points to tight ends this season.
Eric Ebron
Ebron has shown that he can be a dominant threat, but has had trouble with drops in recent weeks. In week 12 he faces the Eagles who are giving up the second fewest points to tight ends this season.
