Drew Brees, Jimmy Graham, Kenny Stills' Post-Week 13 Fantasy Reaction

R. Cory SmithNov 30, 2014

The New Orleans Saints offense has been as perplexing as any in the NFC South. In Week 13, Drew Brees had his coming-out party against the Pittsburgh Steelers to answer questions about his fantasy value.

Though his leading tight end didn't have a huge day on the receiving end, Kenny Stills broke out for the Saints. Jimmy Graham was held in check for much of the game, but Brees still shined for fantasy owners.

Brees has thrown for three touchdowns in three games this season but had his first five-touchdown game at Heinz Field on Sunday. Given his production in recent weeks—all four three-TD games have come in the last six games—he looks the part of a quarterback to ride in the playoffs.   

Steve Palazzolo of Pro Football Focus offered his take on the quarterback's season:

When the Saints lost rookie Brandin Cooks for the season to a wrist injury, many wondered who would step up. It appears Stills is the team's top dynamic receiver now after putting together a huge day against the Steelers.   

As for Graham, the tight end was simply swallowed by the Steelers and saw Benjamin Watson catch a touchdown pass. Expect him to bounce back moving forward and still carry fantasy teams in the playoffs.

The Saints face off with the Carolina Panthers, Chicago Bears and Atlanta Falcons in the fantasy postseason. Given those matchups, look for all three to explode in the pass-heavy offense.
