Darren McFadden – RB, Dallas Cowboys

Yes, Tampa Bay's defense is actually not as bad as advertised when it comes to the run. Yes, Matt Cassel was under center. But it doesn't excuse a rather poor performance from Dallas' running game. This is an elite offensive line and a running back who has showed great vision and explosiveness since he was given the reins to the Cowboys' backfield. What happened on Sunday was disgusting (from both teams really, it was a difficult game to watch), with McFadden only gaining 32 yards on 17 carries.

Now here is an instance where I think everyone who still has the option to trade in their league should pound the McFadden owner with offers. Capitalize on the narrative that Tampa's defense is terrible, try to shake them a bit, and get McFadden now that Tony Romo is coming back.

McFadden's stock took a bit of a ding on Sunday, and hopefully it cracks the door open just enough for savvy owners to grab him. If you own him, do not fret one bit. Also, Christine Michael was just waived, if anyone was still worried about his presence.

Dez Bryant – WR, Dallas Cowboys

This should be the very last time you'll have to worry about Dez Bryant's productivity for the rest of 2015. With quarterback Tony Romo returning this Sunday against the Miami Dolphins, Dez should be locked right back into the top five at wide receiver. Not only was he dealing with abysmal quarterback play from the likes of Matt Cassel and Brandon Wedden but Bryant was also coming back from an injury of his own. A foot injury to an athletic wide receiver of Bryant's caliber is enough of a fantasy headache to deal with on its own so having a below average QB is an additional kink in the armor.

Believe it or not, the NFC East is so terrible that the Cowboys aren't even technically out of the race yet. I'm sure as hell not picking them to win the division but that tells me they aren't going to rest Bryant or Romo anytime soon even with their respective injuries.

Over the team's last seven games, there's really only one matchup that should scare you and that's the Thanksgiving showdown against the Carolina Panthers. Other than that, it's smooth sailing for the Dallas offense the rest of the way. You can kiss that 45-yard performance goodbye and enjoy the ride through the playoffs.

Jimmy Graham - TE, Seattle Seahawks

Watching the game between the Seahawks and Cardinals was quite the roller coaster ride, and within that ride were a few turns where Graham had a chance to make a play and simply did not. He had key drops, one of which would have been for a touchdown. Yes the ball was defended a bit, but he had others that were uncontested that he just put on the field.

He saw eight targets overall and only caught three of them. For Jimmy, the opportunities clearly are not coming as frequently as he would like. This means that when you do get the ball thrown your way, you've got to make the play. This continues the downward trend for Graham and the Seattle offense as a whole.
