SIT ‘EM – WR

Michael Crabtree. 3. player. 26. . Wide Receiver. Ravens

Where has Michael Crabtree been so far this season? The newest Ravens receiver has been overshadowed by both John Brown and Willie Snead. While Crabtree has been targeted the most, he’s only hauled in eight receptions for 94 yards and a touchdown through his first two games as a member of the Baltimore Ravens.

The chances of Crabtree making noise this week are slim, as he’ll face a tough Broncos secondary. Michael Fabiano of NFL.com doesn’t like his chances either, noting,

"He’ll face a tough matchup against he Broncos, who have allowed just one touchdown to receivers who line up wide after two weeks."

This should be a close game, but Crabtree isn’t someone I’d roll with in my starting lineup. That Denver defense is good at shutting down receivers.
