Week 6 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em: Jahvid Best and Other Players to Sit

Be afraid. Be very afraid, because Jahvid Best and a couple of his friends are destined to ruin your weekend with their sub-par fantasy exploits in Week 6. 

It's time to find a seat, and plant these guys firmly there. There is no better way to lose a week than to overvalue a player based on one performance. 

Best is just one example. We also have another player to deride in Sam Bradford. He should be benched for another reason altogether. 

Then we have Tim Hightower, a player that has the perfect matchup this weekend, but you would be a fool to go in, guns blazing, with him this weekend. 

Here are three players that, for various reasons, will be awful this weekend. You've been warned. 

Jahvid Best

 The Detroit Lions running back torched the Chicago Bears on Monday night. Kudos and congrats abound. Now sit him. 

The Niners have been shutting down the run game left and right. Detroit won't force the issue when they can just pass all over the field on the Niners. 

Sam Bradford

 Bradford is still owned in 50 percent of fantasy leagues, and I have no idea why. The Rams offense is in shambles at the moment, and will continue to hurt those owners that haven't received the memo. 

The Packers may have a soft secondary, but that will hardly help one of the worst teams in all of football. For the love of all that is holy, sit him. 

Tim Hightower

 The Redskins will be running all day on the Eagles. Normally you would want Hightower to be the key cog of your fantasy lineup in that situation. 

The promise Hightower showed in the preseason is gone now, replaced by the flourish of Ryan Torain and Roy Helu. Hightower will share the touches leaving his owners out in the cold.
