Alright, Razzball Nation, help me follow the bouncing logic ball.  Knowshon Moreno goes from virtually ignored before his first start of the season week 12, to casual low RB2 call in week 13 and 14.  Then when given a plum matchup vs the Raiders, he finally delivers to the tune of a top 5 fantasy finish for RBs.  So what kind of love does Moreno get this week against a Ravens defense gave up 186 rushing yards to the Redskins last week?  Kick him up to a 14th consensus rank at RB but I say that’s not enough.  Sometimes a great Knowshon happens and this week I think it strikes again.  Over the three games Moreno has started his worst yards from scrimmage output was 83 against a tough rushing defense in Tampa Bay and for PPR enthusiasts he has caught exactly 4 passes in each of his starts.  So in a game against a Ravens defense in the bottom 10 in terms of fantasy points allowed to opposing running backs, let’s just say the floor has been set high enough that we should be looking at his ceiling instead.  Outside of Knowshon, I’m with JB this week on the podcast in a love of Josh Gordon as I set him up as a low-end WR1 in standard and a high end WR2 in PPR leagues.  If you’re wondering why, go ask Anquan Boldin owners how much they liked him playing against the Redskins last week.  In other controversial plays, I actually ranked Joique Bell ahead of Mikel LeShoure.  Blame it on the touches in week 14 – 17 for Bell vs 12 for LeShoure – or blame it on the fact that Robert Turbin had over 100 yards rushing after the Seahawks sent the Cards into therapy by the 3rd quarter of the game last week.  Lions aren’t as good of a team as Seattle but you don’t have to be to run it up against John Skelton.  I also gave you all an added bonus of ranking 20 TE rather than 15 this week because there are truly some great sleeper plays on the week and I’d feel bad if you didn’t see them all with your very eyes.  Obviously, this was merely a ploy to get Tony Moeaki on there.  So with all that out of the way, let’s take a look at the weekly rankings for week 15 of the 2012 fantasy football season…
