Most fantasy players don’t jump the gun and start dismantling their roster after one week, especially high draft picks who were slow out of the blocks, but if there’s someone in your league who annually has the itch to look at the results of the first game and make a move, then here’s some things to consider…

Buy low

Deion Branch: His zeroes across the board have got to scare some folks, even those who had him as a top 20-25 receiver and a solid WR2. If you still believe he'll post 1,000-plus yards with 7-9 TDs, which I do, maybe his owner won't, and you can get a bargain.

Lee Evans: He might have been to high a pick for someone to worry about his two-catch, 5-yard performance on Sunday, but a knee-jerk reaction by an owner isn't out of the question. He'll likely have other down weeks becuase the Bills offense is inconsistent, but not down as low as Week 1.

Donovan McNabb: No. 1 QBs are better than 184 yards, a TD and an interception, especially against the Packers in a close game, but I'll bet he's still getting back into form after his injury. I have to think that, I have him in one of my leagues.

Sell high

Laveranues Coles: I like Coles a lot, espeically in point-per-reception leagues, but he's no better than a middle-of-the-road WR2 or top end WR3 despite his 7-catch, 2-TD opener. And the Jets trailed most of the game, so they were throwing a lot more than they will on a regular basis. If someone thinks that they're getting a No. 1 target from you, send him packing.

Chris Brown: It's hard to ignore the 175 yards against the stout Jaguars defense, but so is the fact that he's still splitting time in the Titans backfield with LenDale White, likely will not get the goal-line carries, and is an injury waiting to happen. In other words, he's not a sure-fire RB2.

Shaun McDonald: Six catches, 90 yards and a TD is great. If he matches that without Roy Williams or Calvin Johnson missing a game with an injury, I'll be shocked. Then again if, he's on your waiver wire, grab him. He's likely better than your current WR4-5.

Derrick Mason: He was targeted 12 times and had seven catches for 76 yards. Once Mark Clayton is healthy, all of those numbers will go down, and he'll be, at best, a bye-week fill-in.
