ANALYSIS: Derek Carr is quickly becoming one of the NFL's budding stars as a passer, and more importantly, for our purposes, one of the league's better options in fantasy. After a bumpy start including three under 15 point games in his first five weeks, Carr has come out from the bye and posted a minimum of 23 points every week since, making him the 2nd highest scoring fantasy QB during that time and 3rd highest average scorer. With games against the passing defenses of the Chargers, Jets and now Steelers - he's played against a variety of difficulties and managed to produce against all of them. It might be safe to say that this is Carr's breakout season, and he might be worth more than some of the current QBs being rostered. His next matchup comes against the Vikings, who hold the 17th ranked passing defense on DVOA. He should be owned in nearly any league.
