The Fantasy Football schedule for Week 6 has some big start or sit options heading into the weekend, as names like Lamar Miller, Odell Beckham, AJ Green, Andre Ellington, Keenan Allen, Branden Oliver, Larry Donnell, Calvin Johnson, Mohamed Sanu and Ronnie Hillman all could be major contributors and some are dealing with injuries and have great matchups.
Miller and Oliver have been getting chances with starters injured for their teams and they have performed well and should be START options this week. Oliver had his best game as a Charger with over 100 yards last weekend against the Jets, while Miller has had a week off and could be energized heading into Week 6 before Knowshon Moreno returns. The Giants are playing the Eagles and that could end up being a shootout, making Andre Williams, Larry Donnell and Odell Beckham solid START options for Eli Manning.
Calvin Johnson and AJ Green are big name players dealing with injuries and they both could be out for Week 6. Unless something changes, Green and Johnson should be considered SIT players for the games on Sunday, as they both will likely be very limited if they do play. Johnson is dealing with an ankle injury, while Green is now dealing with a toe injury and he could be out for multiple weeks. Mohamed Sanu and Golden Tate are options with Johnson and Green ailing and those players are strong START picks if they end up missing time.
Montee Ball is out with an injury and so is Ryan Mathews and that makes Ronnie Hillman and Branden Oliver solid START picks with those players ailing. Ball and Mathews are expected to miss time this week and adding both of those players could be huge for fantasy owners. Oliver is coming off of his best game with the Chargers and he had over 100 yards and he could be starting for a bit, as Mathews and Donald Brown are both dealing with injuries and Danny Woodhead is out for the season.
Keenan Allen is probable for the game on Sunday and as long as he is in the lineup, he is a very good START option if he plays. Eddie Royal is also banged up and that could make Malcom Floyd a good sport start if those players are limited. The Chargers have been a very good offensive team and now they have a solid matchup this week against the Raiders and that could mean some big performances. The Chargers have been passing the ball a ton and their receivers could be solid option this week.
The Giants have been playing very well over the past few weeks and that makes Eli Manning, Andre Williams, Odell Beckham and Larry Donnell smart starters this week. The Eagles have been giving up yards and points and that could give the Giants a chance to get in a shootout and that could be great news for fantasy owners. The Giants have been rolling on offense the past few weeks and they have the late game on Sunday and that could be perfect for the team to get things going.
