Who's Hot and Who's Not: Preseason Edition

As the NFL preseason comes to a conclusion tonight, I will present the Cage's installment of Who's Hot and Who's Not: Preseason Edition.

Who's Hot:

Aaron Rodgers - Green Bay's QB finished the fake season with 465 yds, 6 TDs, and nearly a 150 QB rating. Those numbers should worry the Bears all week in anticipation of their Week 1 matchup.

Adrian Peterson - The consensus number 1 pick in most leagues this August tore it up Week 3 vs. the Texans D on Monday Night Football. On just 11 carries, he grinded out 117 yds, including a 75 yd TD run on the Vikes first play from scrimmage.

Hakeem Nicks - The rookie WR for the Giants has 3 catches of over 50 yds this preseason, including 2 for TDs. It looks like Nicks might emerge as the playmaker the Giants drafted him to be.

Who's Not:

Browns QBs - Only 1 TD and 400 yds passing between the two of them, I would advise steering clear of either Derek Anderson or Brady Quinn. Neither seems to want to win the starting job. Cleveland is a mess right now.

Matt Cassel - struggled his first 2 games out, then preceded to get injured, leaving major doubts surrounding Cassel's upcoming season. With the inexperienced offensive line and lack of playmakers on offense, look for Cassel to struggle this year.

Maurice Jones-Drew - In limited carries this preseason, MJD never could get into a groove running the ball. To make matters worse, he busted his knee in the Jags last fake game, throwing his Week 1 status into jeopardy, and torturing fantasy owners.
