Sleeper Watch

Trent Green is out with a concussion which could likely be not only season ending but force him to retire. Although few fantasy owners are actually starting Green on their rosters, an excellent bye-week fill in has now presented itself. Cleo Lemon, a fourth year QB out of Arkansas State, should get the start against the NFL’s most quarterback friendly passing defense next week when the Dolphins go to Cleveland. Even my grandmother can throw two touchdowns against the Browns’ secondary.

Looking further ahead, Lemon has some incredibly tasty matchups later in the season with, among other things, playing Buffalo not once, but twice! Don’t know if Lemon’s going to prove good enough to be an every week starter yet but if you’re hurting at QB, Lemon could be a great bench option to insert during key weeks based on matchups.
