Based on either too high of an average draft position (ADP), too many injuries, too high of age, or too low of something else, here are 20 guys who could be fantasy busts this season: RELATED: 20 draft-day steals | Fantasy football cheat sheet | Sleepers | Mock Draft Who’s the most overrated player in fantasy football? Matt Forte, RB, Bears (standard ADP: 7). The force just isn’t strong with Forte to be up there with all the other elite RB1s....

Understandably, each of those three clubs all placed at least one player in our team of the week; keep reading to see the other players who had the best performances in the Goal Fantasy game. GK: Asmir Begovic - Bournemouth - 1 Game, 5 Saves, 1 Clean Sheet = 9 Points DF: Steve Cook - Bournemouth - 1 Game, 1 Goal, 1 Clean Sheet = 14 Points This one came out of nowhere as the Bournemouth man started the match with no goals and just one clean sheet, yet he managed to get one of each on Saturday....

Heroes Richarlison: Forward, Watford, £6.1m, owned in 0.76% of teams With so many elite expensive forwards it’s easy to forget the little guys. As Aguero and Morata are both out with injuries, now may be the perfect time to bring in Richarlison, who already has three goals and two assists this season. Hornets 23/20 to win/draw v Arsenal David Silva: Midfielder, Manchester City, £7.3m, owned in 6.72% of teams...

GK: Fraser Forster - Southampton - 1 Game, 6 Saves, 1 Clean Sheet = 10 Points DF: Kieran Trippier - Tottenham - 1 Game, 1 Assist, 1 Clean Sheet = 10 Points DF: Phil Jagielka - Everton - 1 Game, 1 Goal, 1 Assist, 2 Goals Conceded = 10 Points Two straight matches with goals and appearances in our Team of the Week. The Everton defence has definitely struggled since the horrific injury to Seamus Coleman, but the big centre back is doing his best to stay fantasy relevant....

Even with just two games on the books, we’re starting to see some obvious trends with certain players. When it’s targets, touches, or injury concerns, the whole picture is important, not just the final statline. That’s where you can really find value, as some owners will simply like at the yards and touchdowns and either give up too quickly on a high-quality player or covet a mediocre player who’s simply had a hot start....

MORE MOCK DRAFT ANALYSIS: Round 1 | Round 2 | Round 3 | Round 4 | Round 5 | Round 6 7-1. Toby Gerhart, RB, Jaguars (Bill Bender). Iyer: I thought of taking the Jags’ new workhorse a few picks earlier, but I knew he wouldn’t last the turn. He might end up as a better RB2 than Bender’s fourth-rounder, Frank Gore. 7-2. Fred Jackson, RB, Bills (Will Long)....

There aren’t any players who shoot up from a sixth-round pick to a second-round pick, but there will be some players who see a nice bump in value thanks to those extra three-to-five points a week in the form of extra receptions.

That could change in 2015 with offensive guru Marc Trestman leading the Ravens offense. The Bears had a bit of an internal breakdown under Trestman’s watch as head coach in ‘14, but they still attempted the seventh most passes in the league. Looking back at ‘13, he led them to a No. 8 finish in total yardage, No. 5 finish in passing yards – with journeyman Josh McCown playing eight games – and No....
