But as good as Young looked when he returned from his latest injury in September, we’re still talking about a 31-year-old righty that’s made just 36 starts over the past three seasons combined. That’s hardly what anyone would term as a dependable option.

And while the kid seemed at least part of the rotation in the first two weeks of the season, he hadn’t played at all over for over two weeks, so last week Oklahoma City wisely sent him down to the D-League. So far, so good for Aldrich as he’s averaged nine points, six boards and one block in his first two games for the Tulsa 66ers.

Thome is one of those “more valuable in real life than Fantasy” types, especially since he limits your team’s flexibility by not qualifying anywhere defensively. He’s a free agent this offseason, and should come cheaply for any team that needs a power bat off the bench or the left-handed portion of a DH platoon (which seems like a major waste of a roster spot).

After great runs at Tulsa, Georgia and Kentucky (where he guided the Wildcats to an NCAA title in 1998), Smith has taken his act to Minnesota and completely turned around the Golden Gophers program. This team was 8-22 the season before Smith arrived and has gone 20-14, 22-11 and 21-14 in the three seasons since. It’s unbelievable what a difference a fantastic coach can make in college hoops. Unbelievable.

At its heart, Fantasy football is all about opportunities — you want the guys that are going to have a lot of chances to help you. Because of that, Jackson is definitely one of your picks, even in what could be a tough matchup on the road. Bottom line, Jackson is going to get in the neighborhood of 15 touches and that means he’s got a chance to make an impact. Plus, he accounted for 104 yards and a touchdown vs. Minny in Week Seven.
