Jaguars As an avid fantasy football participant
Womens Customized New England Patriots Jerseys , I plan to start a weekly analysis of the New England Patriots and their current matchup in terms of fantasy football. This is my analysis and estimations of stats heading into week 2. Good luck with all of your match-ups!Quarterbacks When I say names like Tom Brady and Blake Bortles, it should be obvious who the number one option should be for fantasy football. But if you compare that stats strictly from the AFC Championship Game last postseason, the choice isn’t so obvious. From 1/21/2018: Brady: 26/38, 290 yards, 2 TDs, 0 INTBortles: 23/36, 293 yards, 1 TD, 0 INTJust like we all predicted鈥?However, fast forward to present day, the Patriots will be facing a pretty stout Jaguars defense that for the most part, remains unchanged from last year, anchored by Jalen Ramsey, Myles Jack, and Calais Campbell. Facing tough defenses is nothing new for Tom Brady, but this young Jags defense should be hungry for revenge and we should expect them to come out swinging. As mentioned previous by many on PatsPulpit.com, this New England defense is full of new faces, and after posting a strong week 1 performance, should provide a much tougher matchup for Bortles regardless on the location. Start Brady and bench Bortles. Final Prediction: Tom Brady: 250 yards, 2 touchdowns, 1 interception Blake Bortles: 200 yards, 1 touchdown, 2 interceptions Tight Ends Like expected, Rob Gronkowski balled out last week and I was very close in predicting his exact stat line. This week should be no different. The Patriots has made some moves at wide receiver, bringing in Bennie Fowler and Corey Coleman, but the expectations for Gronk remain unchanged and regardless of who is covering him, I expect another big week. My true wish is Gronk has the opportunity to take Ramsey and “Throw him out the club”, Sergio Brown needs the company. As far as the Jaguars go, Austin Seferian-Jenkins is really the only option for tight end, and should only be started if in a pinch. He won’t dominate the points column but could be a reliable 4-8 points. Final Prediction:Rob Gronkowski: 5 receptions, 77 yards

While this is extremely unfortunately for Mr. Hill and the Patriots, it does help narrow the options of what Patriots running back to start. Both James White and Rex Burkhead looked great and had an equal share of snaps at 11. At this point, I would have no hesitation starting either back in the flex position. If you are in a PPR league, I would lean towards James White based on how he is used in the passing game corralling a team high of 9 targets in week 1. Currently, Jaguars Leonard Fournette is day to day with a hamstring injury and has not been cleared yet to play Sunday. If T.J. Yeldon is available on your waiver wire, you need to pick him up now. He is a great, cheap option that if Fournette sits again, will be a solid contributor to your squad as a RB2. However, if Fournette plays, you can leave him on the bench. Final Predictions: James White: 30 rushing yards, 5 receptions, 50 receiving yardsRex Burkhead: 47 rushing yards, 20 receiving yards, 1 rushing touchdown T.J. Yeldon: 47 rushing yards, 3 receptions, 37 yards Wide Receivers Despite being widely thin on paper at the receiver position, it was not evident on the field week 1 for the Patriots. Everyone on offense stepped up, and surprisingly, it was Phillip Dorsett who stepped up for the receivers, registering 7 receptions for 66 yards and a touchdown. Meanwhile, Chris Hogan had 1 reception on 5 targets, just for 11 yards. Like Hogan, Patterson was a non-factor at the position for fantasy. While it is easy to jump the gun and bench Hogan in favor for Dorsett, I think it is important to remember that this stat line could easily be flipped between Hogan and Dorsett. If anything, Dorsett just throws his name in being a playable option. Despite playing a much better defense this week, I expect more of the same from these two receivers. Keelan Cole and Dede Westbrook look like the favorite receiving targets for Bortles and can also be used for the flex position if needed. They wouldn’t be my first option as I believe this Patriots defense is going to get after Bortles, but if you play in a 12/14-team league and have 2 flex positions, they are end of the line options. Final Prediction: Chris Hogan: 4 receptions, 62 yards

We got pressure on the quarterback, limited the big plays, contained the run for the most part, and stopped what could have been a big day for the Watson/Hopkins duo. For week 2, I am all in for starting the Patriots defense against the Jaguars. If Fournette is out, I would start them twice (I know, this is impossible, but I am trying to emphasize my point). If you are part of the group that likes to stream defenses and are scourging the waiver wire for a pick up, I would be looking at the Baltimore Ravens, playing the Bengals this week or the Washington Redskins playing the Colts.Patriots activate wide receiver Julian Edelman, release running back Kenjon Barner When the clock struck midnight from Sunday to Monday, the Julian Edelman’s four-game suspension officially came to an end. However, the wide receiver did not immediately join the New England Patriots’ roster and instead spent the last four days on a roster exemption list. This allowed the Patriots to carry 53 men on their active roster despite Edelman’s suspension being over.In order to activate the veteran, however, New England now needs to make a move to free up a roster spot – and according to ESPN Boston’s Mike Reiss, running back Kenjon Barner will be the vicitm:The 28-year old originally joined the Patriots after week one to serve as a depth option at running back and punt returner. However, he was a healthy scratch for his first potential game and subsequently let go again. Barner rejoined the team last week and saw some playing time against the Miami Dolphins on Sunday but failed to establish himself as a fixture on the roster despite New England lacking depth at the running back position.The move, as Reiss notes, will leave the Patriots with just two running backs on their active roster: first-round draft pick Sony Michel and veteran James White. The duo performed well but more depth behind them is still needed. New England also has undrafted rookie Ralph Webb on its practice squad, and Rex Burkhead as a candidate to return off the injured reserve list. Wide receiver Cordarrelle Patterson could also receive snaps at running back.[UPDATE, 10/04, 5:30 p.m. ET] As the Patriots announced, they have indeed activated Julian Edelman and released Kenjon Barner to make room for him.
