Should I start Keith Bulluck or Rocky McIntosh this week?
I also have Lawrence Timmons....

Please post all team and league specific advice requests in our IDP AC Forum. Also, it's very helpful if you add the matchups (with home and away) designations for the players under consideration.

Of the three, Bulluck is the only every-down linebacker and has a good matchup against Jacksonville. He's my choice to start. And he should be a very good LB4 for you this season.

My bad....but thanks for the tip....I am high on McIntosh, but I'm concerned about him coming off a injury...

FGB's projections are saying Timmons, then Rocky, then Bulluck for this week, that is why I was a little off...

Those three players are separated by only 0.6 fantasy points in FBG scoring, though, so they're essentially the same player. I think Bulluck is the most likely to exceed his projection and probably the safest bet to not go below that projection.

Yeah, I thought Rocky looked solid as well. Worth noting that he sat at least two series for HB Blades and that he sat when the Redskins played in a dime formation (although that was only a few snaps). 6-2 is a very good start, though, particularly for a guy who played about 80% of the snaps. Let's hope he keeps it up.

Also worth noting is McIntosh should get better as the year goes on and his injury gets farther in the past. I'm willing to bet he will not lose snaps later in the year because he should be closer to full speed.

If that happens, I might eventually start him in place of Bulluck....I'm loaded at LBs this year....D. Harris, L Fletcher, D. Ryans, Rocky and Bulluck.. w00t.gif

Didn't get to see the Titans game. I'll be taking a critical look at as many of these issues as possible in this week's column and we'll certainly be addressing them in our podcast.

The Jags did not run a whole lot, so that could be part of it, but Bullocks numbers really fell off last year, so this has to be concerning.
