This is a computerized ranking system created by Charles Budd and Steve Maluk (known in the Forums as Buckychudd and Wesley Walker). Factors taken into account include past performance of players and opposing defenses. Players listed as “out” or “doubtful” are not included.
Point projections are based on the following scoring system: 1 point per 25 yards passing or 10 yards rushing/receiving; 6 points per TD; -1 per fumble; -2 per interception thrown.
QUARTERBACK
While Daunte Culpepper has cooled off somewhat, Peyton Manning just keeps on rolling. Matt Hasselbeck and Marc Bulger, on the other hand, haven’t lived up to some people’s expectations. Nonetheless, their matchup this week should see some scoring. Both are good starts.

RUNNING BACK
Michael Pittman? Yes, Michael Pittman. He had a monster game last week, but it wasn’t exactly out of nowhere; he should continue to be a valuable fantasy asset. Clinton Portis has posted big yardage this season, but can he score with more regularity from this point forth?

WIDE RECEIVER
Randy Moss is listed as doubtful. Keep an eye on that situation, though. Two matchups this week stand out as having the potential for some big scoring and passing aplenty: Green Bay vs. Minnesota and Houston vs. Indianapolis.

TIGHT END
Boo Williams is finally heating up. He had a great 2003 campaign, but has been slow to get started in 2004. Jason Witten has been establishing himself as one of the preeminent offensive threats in Dallas. A tough Philadelphia defense may shut down all their other weapons this week.
