Jacksonville gives up 280 yards per game passing.

That is ranked 29th of 32 NFL pass defenses.

Britt has scored in each of the last two ball games.

Vince Young trusts him and he delivers.

Yahoo! priority scoring leagues suit Britt for now.

No. 10b: DeSean Jackson, Philadelphia Eagles

Atlanta's pass defense is vulnerable deep.

Kolb and Jackson connect on deep and intermediate routes.

NFL.com formats especially suit Jackson because of his threat in the return game.

Imagine him doing the Dougie against the ATL?

No. 9: Mike Wallace, Pittsburgh Steelers

TAMPA, FL - SEPTEMBER 26: Receiver Mike Wallace #17 of the Pittsburgh Steelers catches a touchdown pass in front of defender Cody Grimm #35 of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers during the game at Raymond James Stadium on September 26, 2010 in Tampa, Florida. (Ph

He is a must-start in all formats this week.

A reliable deep threat.

A bomb could be coming his way early from Big Ben.

No. 8: Braylon Edwards, New York Jets

EAST RUTHERFORD, NJ - OCTOBER 11: Braylon Edwards #17 of the New York Jets reacts after he made a reception in the rain in the second quarter against the Minnesota Vikings at New Meadowlands Stadium on October 11, 2010 in East Rutherford, New Jersey. (P

The Broncos pass defense ranks mediocre in the NFL stat books.

Edwards and his QB have a nice chemistry going.

Yahoo! priority scoring and NFL.com formats are best for Braylon.

No. 7: Hines Ward, Pittsburgh Steelers

Cleveland's pass defense will be target practice in this game.

Likewise for its run defense.

The Browns could very well be shutout by the Steelers defense.

Pittsburgh's offense will provide ample value in all formats for Ward.

No. 6: Hakeem Nicks, New York Giants

Detroit is ranked around 25th of 32 NFL pass defenses going into this week.

Don't expect that number to get better.

Last week Nicks had 12 receptions and two scores against Houston.

Nicks is high value in all formats.

No. 5: Dwayne Bowe, Kansas City Chiefs

He faces the Houston Texans pass defense.

Ranked number 32 of 32 NFL teams, the Texans have opponents standing in line.

PPR, NFL.com and Yahoo! scoring valued league owners should start Bowe.

No. 4: Malcom Floyd, San Diego Chargers

Floyd has been the top quick-strike threat for Philip Rivers.

The Chargers will explode on the 22nd ranked Rams pass defense.

Start him in all formats.

No. 3: Andre Johnson, Houston Texans

The young Kansas City pass defense is ranked 25th in the NFL.

Johnson is a stud in all formats this week.

No. 2: Anquan Boldin, Baltimore Ravens

BALTIMORE, MD - OCTOBER 10: Anquan Boldin #81 of the Baltimore Ravens goes out for a pass against the Denver Broncos at M&T Bank Stadium on October 10, 2010 in Baltimore, Maryland. Players wore pink in recognition of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. The Rav

The Patriot pass defense is the worst part of their team, statistically.

270 yards given up per game is not healthy.

But it is a bad habit New England cannot break.

They deserve to be ranked 28 of 32 in passing defense.

Bolden will break them off properly with a big game.

No. 1: Reggie Wayne, Indianapolis Colts

INDIANAPOLIS, IN - DECEMBER 27: Reggie Wayne #87 of the Indianapolis Colts tries to make a reception behind Darrelle Revis #24 of the New York Jets at Lucas Oil Stadium on December 27, 2009 in Indianapolis, Indiana. The Jets handed the Colts their first l

Manning against the woeful Redskins pass defense.

The stuff NFL records are made of. 

Bank on Reggie to get loose for a dime and a deuce.

Fantasy value is at least 10 points in all formats.

PPR and NFL.com formats will see his highest value.
