This may seem like an unusual pick (especially to those of you that don't have this position in your leagues), but I think the high fantasy scorer for the Hawks this week will be:

DST

Huh?  DST?  For those unfamiliar with the acronym it stands for Defense and Special Teams.  The Chicken Royale's fantasy football league (South Alaskan Fantasy) uses the standard free-bee nfl.com/fantasy league system which has this as a player, and it seems that most fantasy leagues have support for this option now.

 It may seem odd that on a team that has historically been known for its offensive prowess that I would not choose any of them, but our defense rocked last year and all the starters have all returned.  We will be without Rocky Bernard the first game, true, but they will be without their stud Pro Bowl offensive tackle Jason Peters.  The Bill's have some weapons on their offense, but they are young, and I expect them to not be polished for Sunday's game, and I expect the Hawks D to chew them up.  Ye Haw, I can already smell them Buffalo Burgers grillen!

 And lets face it, I don't expect any of our offensive player's fantasy stats to exactly sizzle Sunday. Hasselbeck has not been playing or practicing for weeks, plus we are probably going to be trying to establish our new running game, so he probably won't score high.  And if he ain't doing his thing you can bet our receivers won't be doing theirs.  I also don't expect any of our running backs to have break out games because they will probably all be splitting time while they get evaluated.

Who knows, maybe Forsett can one run back and give the DST a little boost.
