Friday fantasy finds

When your boss isn’t looking, check out these players, widely available in most leagues. Just don’t get caught.

Brent Celek – He won’t be a sleeper much longer. The tight end is Kevin Kolb’s No. 1 target, getting even more looks than speedy DeSean Jackson.

Justin Forsett – Boasted 92 yards in combined rushing/receiving yards, Forsett is Seattle’s best running threat. Only a matter of time until he takes over the starting position. With Matt Hasselbeck hurt, the Seahawks will be running the ball more. Could be a breakout game for Forsett. Grab him while you can.

Julian Edelman – Who is this guy, you ask. He’s the new Wes Welker who saw a surprising 16 targets from Brady. Welker is still ailing, so look for Edelman to remain a threat. A good pickup in deep leagues or in 3-WR leagues.

Tashard Choice – A fantasy playoff standout from 2008, Choice’s value increases with Marion Barber questionable. Some reports show Choice to get as many as half the carries. Dallas is expected to run the ball all day against Carolina.

Johnny Knox – The Abeline Christian product is quickly becoming Jay Cutler’s favorite. Although it appears the Bears will run the ball against a weak Seattle run defense, Knox is still a big threat and should be starting in most leagues.

Chansi Stuckey – The Titans have an awful secondary, so look for the Jets to light it up with the passing game. Stuckey could have a big game.

Mario Manningham – The Giants passing game has been a nice surprise, thanks largely in part to Manningham’s prowess at WR. With 10 catches for 150 yards last week and 1 TD, Mario looks to have a big week against the Bucs, who are vulnerable against the pass.
