College Fantasy Football: Week 2 Emergency Starters
Indiana's Tre Roberson is a solid pickup for Week 2.
By: Steven Lassan | 9/7/12, 4:23 AM EDT
If you checked-in with us at the end of last week, you were handed a few fantasy gems. In fact, our emergency running backs list posted more points per player than our top ten running backs (21.5 vs. 20.7). The quarterbacks list (19.3) offered tremendous value late in the week, while our receivers (8.7) did little to help your cause. Our favorite combination this week: QB-Gillett, RB-Alexander, WR-Amidon.
