DREW MAGARY'S WEEK 7 FANTASY PICKS
QB: Robert Griffin III, Redskins
NFL.com QB scoring rank: No. 1. Matchup: Giants
I'll take RGIII because he's awesome and because Eli Manning likes to use Redskins games as an opportunity to work on his interception-throwing mechanics.
WR: A.J. Green, Bengals
NFL.com WR scoring rank: No. 1
Matchup: Steelers
He's basically the exact same receiver as Randy Moss, only he's not a horrible person. YET. I wonder if being that good of a wideout just naturally turns you into a horrible human being.
RB: Arian Foster, Texans
NFL.com RB scoring rank: No. 1
Matchup: Ravens
He's kind of the no-brainer pick at running back. Though I could do without his Twitter poetry.
MICHAEL RAND'S WEEK 7 FANTASY PICKS
QB: Cam Newton, Panthers
NFL.com QB scoring rank: No. 13. Matchup: Cowboys
Newton has been a little bit of a mess in his second year (sophomore slump), but then again the Cowboys are a mess, too. Here's where Newton turns it all around WR: Vincent Jackson, Buccaneers
NFL.com WR scoring rank: No. 17
Matchup: Saints
Jackson has been a very nice pickup for Tampa Bay (he'd still look good in purple) and had two TD grabs last week in a rout of Kansas City. Going against the Saints? He should keep rolling.
RB: Ahmad Bradshaw, Giants
NFL.com RB scoring rank: No. 14
Matchup: Redskins
Maybe Eli will hand it off to Ahmad instead of throwing interceptions. A guy can dream.
SCOREBOARD Week 6 fantasy recap (using NFL.com default scoring method)
Winner: Michael Rand -- Michael Vick (22.3), Larry Fitzgerald (15.3), Steven Jackson (10). Total: 47.6
Loser: Martin Nunez -- Matt Ryan (9.5), Roddy White (13.2), Jamaal Charles (4.7). Total: 27.4
Overall standings: Guest pickers 3-3.
