With all his weapons healthy, he is <i>probably</i> back to his old self, but the uncertainty and a good Carolina defense combine to make him no slam dunk. ... If <b>Vereen</b> plays, he very well could produce, but fantasy owners basically have to decide a day and a half ahead of time, and that's a dicey proposition for a player just back from injury. Better to wait until he's not a Monday night play. ...<b> </b>The story doesn't change with <b>Amendola</b>. He's a heck of a receiver when healthy, but he's always a snap away from leaving any game. <b></b></p> <p><b>Edelman</b> has seen his stock fall in recent weeks, while <b>Dobson</b>'s has gone the other direction, but neither one is safe in a week where the team plays a defense that destroys wide receivers.</p> <h3><b>Panthers</b></h3> <p><b>Start in every league:</b> Cam Newton, Defense/special teams</p> <p><b>Start if you're desperate:</b> Steve Smith, <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/nfl/players/16684/greg-olsen" mce_href="http://www.sbnation.com/nfl/players/16684/greg-olsen">Greg Olsen</a>, <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/nfl/players/71667/graham-gano" mce_href="http://www.sbnation.com/nfl/players/71667/graham-gano">Graham Gano</a></p> <p><b>Bench:</b> <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/nfl/players/2199/deangelo-williams" mce_href="http://www.sbnation.com/nfl/players/2199/deangelo-williams">DeAngelo Williams</a>, Jonathan Stewart, <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/nfl/players/34965/mike-tolbert" mce_href="http://www.sbnation.com/nfl/players/34965/mike-tolbert">Mike Tolbert</a>, <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/nfl/players/108625/brandon-lafell" mce_href="http://www.sbnation.com/nfl/players/108625/brandon-lafell">Brandon LaFell</a></p> <p>Sure, <b>Newton</b> is coming off of a five-point fantasy day a week ago, but he had averaged 22 per game the four weeks before that, and always has his running game in his back pocket. Overall, he's fantasy's seventh-best quarterback in points per game. ... The <b>Panthers' defense</b> hasn't scored in the single digits since Week 2, and is fast working on supplanting Kansas City's unit as best in the league.</p> <p><b>Smith</b> hasn't topped 69 passing yards in a game this year, and has only three scores. It hasn't been his best year, but he's still the best option the team has among wide receivers. ... <b>Olsen</b>'s stats have been similar to Smith's, but among a less productive position. He's a low-end TE1 without a huge upside, but he's fairly trustworthy.</p> <p><b>Williams</b> is probably the most skilled Panthers' running back overall; <b>Tolbert</b> is the most likely to reach the end zone. But <b>Stewart</b>'s return to activation -- and playing time -- has relegated the whole group to fantasy afterthought, as it's almost impossible to guess which will do what in a given game. ... <b>LaFell</b> had three touchdowns in three games earlier in the year, but hasn't scored since Week 6, and only has 16 fantasy points in that time.</p> <h4>More <a
