John Dietz's fantasy star, weakling

Week 5 superstar

After a sickly start to the season, Falcons WR Roddy White showed ownership why it gave him a new contract before the season. White hauled in 8 receptions for 210 yards and 2 TDs, including a 90-yarder. The potential of these kind of games is why you leave White in your lineup every week.

Week 5 weakling

Eagles WR DeSean Jackson (1 catch, 1 yard) had a brutal day, but we're giving the award to Jacksonville RB Maurice Jones-Drew. Top-end running backs aren't suppose to pick up 34 yards rushing and 23 receiving, as Jones-Drew did in Seattle. It follows a week in which Jones-Drew had 14 rushing yards and 26 receiving.
