Ohio State and Michigan dominated the selections for The Associated Press All-Big Ten football team.The Buckeyes placed eight players on the first team, with center Pat Elflein and punter Cameron Johnston unanimous picks. The Wolverines had five players occupy six spots on the first team, with cornerback Jourdan Lewis a unanimous pick. The only other player named to the first team on every ballot was running back Saquon Barkley of conference champion Penn State.A panel of 26 writers and broadcasters from the 11 Big Ten states voted Barkley the offensive player of the year, Michigan linebacker Jabrill Peppers the defensive player of the year and Ohio State running back Mike Weber the newcomer of the year.Penn States James Franklin is coach of the year. Franklin trailed Wisconsins Paul Chryst heading into the conference championship game on Saturday, but Franklin was named on 12 of the 13 ballots submitted after the Nittany Lions 38-31 victory over the Badgers.Repeat first-team selections were Elflein, Lewis, Iowa cornerback Desmond King and Michigan tight end Jake Butt.The 2016 Associated Press All-Big Ten team, with players listed alphabetically with name, school, height, weight, class and hometown (u- denotes unanimous selections):FIRST TEAMOffenseQuarterback-J.T.

Shaq Lawson Jersey .com) - Christian Ponder will get another chance to prove himself for the Minnesota Vikings, with head coach Leslie Frazier announcing Wednesday that the struggling quarterback will start this weekends game against the Green Bay Packers. The holidays arent the only thing just around the corner. Next week also brings a critical date on the fantasy football calendar.The trade deadline in ESPN leagues arrives Wednesday, Nov. 23, at 12 p.m. ET, roughly 24 hours before well all enjoy turkey, stuffing and football. Its your last chance to make a significant upgrade to your playoff-bound -- or playoff-hopeful -- roster, outside of free agency.That in mind, enjoy some metaphorical hors doeuvres in advance of Thanksgiving, by acquiring (those in the Buy list) or trading (Sell list) the recommended names below.BuyBen Roethlisberger, QB, Pittsburgh Steelers: Hes one of the few high-end quarterbacks who might actually be affordable via trade, mainly because dealing for him means absorbing some risk in the injury department. Roethlisberger has missed five of the Steelers past 22 regular-season games and has averaged 1.7 games missed in his dozen seasons as the teams full-time starter. Still, those willing to take chances tend to score the bargains, and Roethlisbergers Week 10 outburst was extremely encouraging in the health department, as he heads into whats one of the most favorable remaining schedules: at Cleveland, at Indianapolis, vs. the New York Giants, at Buffalo, at Cincinnati, vs. Baltimore and vs. Cleveland (its the second-most favorable using Week 11 Matchups Map data). If not for the schedule that Drew Brees has remaining -- its the most-favorable using that measure -- Roethlisberger might be my choice to be fantasys top-scoring quarterback in the final seven weeks of the season. Also consider: Philip Rivers.Lamar Miller, RB, Houston Texans: Perhaps memories of the Dolphins inexplicably conservative usage of Miller are still too fresh, but his fantasy owners might be a tad panicky learning that he has played only 45 percent of the Texans offensive snaps in their past three games combined. Injuries, however, contributed, and once those are in his rear view, hell presumably have his workhorse role restored. After all, the Texans didnt invest $14 million in guaranteed money in Miller to have him languish in a committee, especially not when their $37 million (again, guaranteed money) quarterback is struggling this much. As with Roethlisberger, making a deal for Miller is absorbing some injury risk, but again, thats the point. Miller has RB1 skill, plus one of the better playoff schedules out there. Also consider: Jonathan Stewart.Michael Thomas, WR, New Orleans Saints: As hinted above, the Saints passing game as a whole has an extremely favorable remaining schedule, but Thomas is an especially attractive target because his perceived value hasnt yet caught up with his true value. (If you dont believe that, check out his ranking relative to Brandin Cooks in some of the rest-of-year sets elsewhere.) Thomas has more catches (56) and has played more offensive snaps (552) than Cooks (51 and 540), plus he has only two fewer targets (73-75) and run only 24 fewer routes (359-383). Hes also no more likely than Cooks to draw his opponents best coverage in any remaining game, significant in that the Saints remaining opponents have been tougher on No. 1 wide receivers than the supporting cast. This is a great schedule for Brees spread-it-around tendencies. Also consider: Doug Baldwin.Dennis Pitta, TE, Baltimore Ravens: Among tight ends, hes first in routes run (316) and second in both targets (64) and receptions (46). If theres a knock on him, though, its that he has only five red zone targets, tied for 17th at the position, which helps explain how he hasnt yet caught a touchdown pass. Fortunately, Pittas remaining schedule includes a lot of games against defenses that have ceded volume in numbers to opposing tight ends, especially the Cincinnatii Bengals (53 catches, 10.dddddddddddd7 fantasy points per game, fourth-most), whom hell face twice. He has a TE1 ceiling, but since hes probably a backup on many fantasy teams, he might come at the cost of a nonstarting RB or WR. Also consider: Coby Fleener.SellAaron Rodgers, QB, Green Bay Packers: Its wise to play the quarterback matchups -- especially for smaller league -- and dealing Rodgers is more a matter of his perceived value perhaps netting a low-end RB1 or WR1. Rodgers has two significant obstacles standing in his way: Matchups with the Seattle Seahawks (Week 14) and Minnesota Vikings (Week 16), which come at inopportune times, and five of his final six matchups overall grade as below-average (at best). He hasnt looked quite as sharp this season as in the past -- though his fantasy production has been extremely good during the softest part of his schedule these past three weeks. Without much support from his backfield, hes more likely to be exposed against tighter defenses in the coming weeks. Also consider: Marcus Mariota.Robert Kelley, RB, Washington Redskins: Hes one of the weeks hottest pickups, but hes a player to flip as quickly as you can, considering whats ahead. Kelley draws the Nos. 2 (at Arizona, Week 13), 4 (vs. Carolina, Week 15), 6 (at Dallas, Week 12) and 8 (at Philadelphia, Week 14) worst matchups for a running back, using seasonal Matchups Map data, in his final seven games. Not a single one of his seven remaining matchups ranks among the 10-most favorable for the position. Kelleys numbers this season look impressive on the surface, but hes not a big-play running back and is more likely to be exposed by some of the tougher defenses out there. If your leagues trade market is valuing him as an RB2, make the deal. Also consider: Jay Ajayi.T.Y. Hilton, WR, Indianapolis Colts: Like Thomas, Donte Moncrief has played a much larger role than perceived since returning from injury. Montcrief has played more offensive snaps (120), run more routes (73) and garnered more targets (15) with as many catches (7) as Hilton (108, 69, 14 and 7) in Weeks 8-9 combined. While Hiltons hamstring injury did influence those numbers, some consideration must be given to the possibility that Moncriefs role is expanding in the Colts offense. Hiltons playoff schedule -- vs. Houston, at Minnesota, at Oakland, vs. Jacksonville -- is one of the most brutal (keep in mind that the Texans have owned him in their recent meetings), so see if you can use the fact that hes fresh off his bye week as reason to argue hes 100 percent and worthy of a top-five wide receiver trade return. A deal straight up for Miller, for example, might get it done. Also consider: Michael Crabtree.Delanie Walker, TE, Tennessee Titans: As productive as he has been of late, Walkers value probably wont get any higher than it is today. His Titans are one of the two teams with a Week 13 bye, which is simply awful for fantasy scheduling, then he returns to easily the most brutal schedule of any tight end: vs. Denver, at Kansas City, at Jacksonville, vs. Houston. All four defenses rank among the bottom 10 in terms of fantasy points per game allowed to the position, and Walker totaled 10 fantasy points in his previous matchups against the Jacksonville Jaguars and Texans this season. On raw talent, hes easily regarded a top-three tight end going forward, except that matchup quality (not to mention volume) isnt there. If you could get a high-end RB2 -- perhaps aim high for a player like the aforementioned Miller or a WR2, like Baldwin -- and have a solid backup tight end, make the deal. Also consider: Jack Doyle.
