So, I’m late publishing this week, but with 6 teams coming off byes last and 6 more on bye this week there’s not a ton of new names this week, but speaking of the #6, Ben Roethlisberger threw 6 TDs in back to back games setting an NFL record for most TDs in a 2 week span. Part of the reason for Roethlisberger’s TD explosion is the emergence of rookie WR Martavis Bryant (25.1% on NFL)(41.3% on ESPN) I mentioned Bryant last week, and after another solid week of production his ownership value jumped significantly, but the 6’4 rookie is still out there in the majority of leagues and I’d consider him a priority for teams looking for depth or a bye week fill-in.
