Player Rankings for Week 14

The positional rankings are for Arena fantasy football fans who want that extra edge in setting their weekly lineups.

A fantasy player's most recent performances are taken into account, as well as upcoming opponent, injury status and the focus of that player's offense.

Mark Grieb Clint Dolezel Chris Sanders John Dutton Shane Stafford Nick Browder Matt Nagy Sonny Cumbie Sherdrick Bonner Jason Fife Andy Kelly Matt D'Orazio Joe Hamilton Clint Stoerner John Kaleo Matt Sauk

Mark Grieb gets the top spot traveling to Los Angeles with the red-hot Sabercats offense. Sonny Cumbie makes a good play, as well, since the Sabercats aren't known for their stiffling defense. Chris Sanders has put up great numbers and should get a starting nod over lesser options against the Storm. Nick Browder has picked up nicely with the Dragons offense and I'm expecting a big effort in a playoff clinching win over the Soul. Andy Kelly should score big against the Gladiators, but Joe Hamilton and John Dutton will most likely see a step down statistically in the big game in Denver. Matt Nagy and the Force are fighting for their playoff lives.

Damien Harrell Chris Jackson Ben Nelson Siaha Burley Bobby Sippio Terrill Shaw Jimmy Fryzel Damien Groce Tony Locke Marcus Nash Freddie Solomon Kevin Swayne Derrick Lewis Anthony Hines TT Toliver Steve Smith

Damien Harrell will set the all-time season TD mark this week versus Orlando. If you have Harrell, you are one lucky owner. Chris Jackson should see plenty of open space against the Rush. No one's been able to stop Jackson lately. Siaha Burley definitely is happy playing with Andy Kelly, as his stats have come back up since Jason Gesser was demoted. Ben Nelson had an offweek, only scoring 30 fantasy points, but should get back up closer to 40 this week. And what can we say about Bobby Sippio's effort the past few weeks. If you have Sippio, get him in the lineup while he's inspired. And we've overlooked Terrill Shaw before but it won't happen again.

James Roe Kevin Ingram Mike Horacek Randy Gatewood Will Pettis Aaron Boone Derek Lee Kevin Nickerson Javarus Dudley Lawrence Samuels Etu Molden Timon Marshall Andy McCullough Willis Marshall Jerrian James Sean Scott David Saunders Mike Brown James Jordan Greg Hopkins Dialleo Burks Orshwante Bryant

Aaron Boone had an off-week, but I expect him to see alot more throws coming his way against the Storm. Mike Horacek is a candidate for Offensive Player of the Year in my book for carrying the Dragons offense. James Roe is back strong and will easily surpass his TD total from last season inspite of missing a few early games. Kevin Ingram is the beneficiary of the Sabercats loose defense this week, as I expect those two teams to score plenty. Javarus Dudley has been quietly very good and now has three consecutive weeks over 30 fantasy points. Lawrence Samuels and the Storm will rebound this week at home versus Kansas City, so get him in the lineup if you have him.

Dane Krager Robert Thomas Phil Glover Dan Alexander Lonnie Ford Marlion Jackson Brian Johnson Harold Wells Duke Pettijohn Wes Ours Frank Carter Chad Dukes Bob McMillen Rodney Filer Bo Kelly Chris Avery

Lonnie Ford is getting hot for the Avengers. He's a late season player and could get more chances as Los Angeles tries to slow down the Sabercats. Dan Alexander is the best pure FB in the league, but injuries slow him down. Marlion Jackson returned from injury and is Probable this week. If he plays, he's a sure thing for a TD, running or receiving. Harold Wells has flown under the radar and been very effective for Columbus. I expect Phil Glover to get a few chances this week against the Avengers, as this is the time of year that San Jose likes to run more often.

Rashad Floyd Chris Brown Jermaine Jones Jeroid Johnson Eddie Moten Damon Mason Jeremy Unertl Clevan Thomas Hamin Milligan Monty Montgomery Jonathan Ordway TJ Hill Bobby Perry Jerald Brown Kahlil Carter Brandon Hefflin Johnnie Harris Donvetis Franklin Delvin Hughley Mark Ricks Kevin Moffett

Rashad Floyd plays better as the year goes on and now has scored over 20 fantasy points in 5 of the past 8 weeks, with one week of 19. Chris Brown has slowed down some but still makes a great option versus Chicago. Eddie Moten has three weeks of double-digit points and could make a good option against the Dragons. Clevan Thomas dropped from 22 FPs to 6 FPs last week and Sonny Cumbie is very good at not throwing INTs. Monty Montgomery missed last week's game and is Questionable for this week. Look for othert options.

Remy Hamilton Carlos Martinez Bill Gramatica Todd Sievers Mark Lewis Gary Kral Peter Martinez Steve Videtich Brian Schmitz Jay Taylor Keith Gispert Clay Rush

Not much to report on the kicker side. I don't expect much to change from week to week in this part of the rankings. Remy Hamilton is the best and should see plenty of points against the Sabercats (all I had to do in that sentence was change the team name). Bill Gramatica makes a nice option this week versus the Brigade, as does Peter Martinez and Carlos Martinez. Keith Gispert was cut by the Rush, so look elsewhere if he's on your squad.
