START ‘EM

1. player. 16. . Running Back. Bills. LeSean McCoy

If you were debating NOT starting LeSean McCoy this week, then what are you even doing playing fantasy football? McCoy appears to be the ageless wonder in the NFL and tore up the Raiders defense this past weekend.

McCoy shelled the Raiders for 151 yards off of 27 carries and found the end zone once. He’s proven to be a “must-start” type of player in fantasy football and that should continue on against the Jets this week.

New York surrendered 140 yards rushing to the Falcons last weekend, with 82 of those yards being given up to Tevin Coleman. The point being that the Jets run defense isn’t great and LeSean McCoy is great.

The end result should be McCoy racking up the yards and fantasy points this week. Why did the Eagles trade him away again?
