Thanksgiving is a mere two days away, which can only mean one thing: Fantasy football playoffs are right around the corner.

The Grab Bag was spot on last week with the recommendations of Jason Snelling, Justin Forsett, and LeSean McCoy. Hopefully, this week will provide more pickups that will aid you in your quest for fantasy postseason action.

 

Rock Cartwright, RB, Redskins

Talk about a depleted backfield. First, Clinton Portis went down with a concussion and now Ladell Betts is out for the season with a knee injury. Insert Rock Cartwright as the Washington Redskins' newest feature back. Portis has already been ruled out for Week 12 and his return date is not known. Cartwright will be the Skins' back from here on out, so add him without hesitation.

 

Brady Quinn, QB, Cleveland Browns

Is Quinn for real or was he more the product of a woeful Lions' defense? He has a tough matchup this week against the Bengals, but, if he shows any type of improvement, he could be worth a start in the playoffs. He has juicy matchups against Kansas City, Oakland, and Jacksonville in the coming weeks.

 

Kevin Boss, TE, New York Giants

Boss was on the receiving end of two touchdown passes from Eli Manning on Sunday. The Giants' ground game struggled early on, and it appeared that they were content to air it out under Manning’s arm. As long as the Giants throw often, Boss will continue to reap the benefits of a pass-first offense.

 

Atlanta Falcons DST

After giving up 34 points to the Giants, the Falcons have a better matchup against division rival Tampa Bay. The Bucs are coming off a seven-point performance against the New Orleans Saints and are truly struggling on offense. Look for Atlanta to bounce back at home and have a decent fantasy outing versus the Buccaneers.
