Friday afternoon means only one thing, even on a holiday weekend, and that’s fantasy football Start ‘Em Sit ‘Em consensus picks. We won’t waste your time on the obvious guys, but our friends at PlayThisGuy.com took a look around the web to see who the top not-so-obvious Start ‘Em Sit ‘Em guys are for Week 12. We present the Top 10 consensus picks in each category below.

Randy Moss might be the new guy for the Tennessee Titans, but it's another receiver on the team that's gotten hot. Over the last three games, Nate Washington has turned in two 100-yard performances and scored two touchdowns. He has a juicy matchup this week against a terrible Texans secondary, so that's good. But he'll have the unheralded Rusty Smith throwing him passes, not Vince Young or Kerry Collins, so that's bad. Still, we think you can take a chance on him.

Matt Cassel tops the Start list, mainly because the Seahawks pass defense is really bad. Cassel and Dwayne Bowe have become a potent fantasy combination and that should continue this weekend.

We mentioned Randy Moss above, and so far his tenure with the Titans has been extremely unproductive, at least beyond being a decoy for Nate Washington. Even with the Titans playing the pitiful Texans secondary, the experts don't see Moss busting out this week and recommend sitting him. Another big-name receiver, Miami's Brandon Marshall, also gets the sit treatment this week against Oakland.
