I'm also wondering BMarshall or VJax in PPR league.

Given the following, I am leaning VJax due to upside:

1. Rivers had a 436-yard game vs. BAL in 2009

2. Ladarius Webb is battling turf toe

3. Game script suggests that SD will have to throw to keep up

4. VJax targets last 7 weeks look pretty good (except vs. Champ):

[*]@KCC: 8

[*]GBP: 12

[*]OAK: 7

[*]@CHI: 8

[*]DEN: 3

[*]@JAC: 5

[*]BUF: 9

5. Stat lines for WRs vs. BAL (most recent games first; some weaker pass offenses I didn't include details). There are catches and even TDs to be had here, I think.

[*]Garcon 5/46/0; Wayne 4/41/0

[*]CLE

[*]Michael Crabtree 6/54

[*]Jerome Simpson 8/152; Caldwell 3/63/1

[*]SEA

[*]Wallace 4/68/1; Antonio Brown 5/109/0

[*]Fitz 3/98; Doucet 2/20/1

[*]Jacoby 4/76/1; Walter 6/52

[*]...

[*]Britt 9/135/1

[*]Wallace 8/107/0; Ward 5/67/0; Sanders 2/20/1

6. Better line play

7. BAL will have to contend with Gates, running game, and underneath pass game to RB (as well as Floyd and VBrown who can spread the field a bit).

I've got VJax in as my WR3 in PPR, but my only other real option would be S. Holmes. Cruz & Fitz are my WR1 & WR2.

I have VJax in as my WR2 in a NON-PPR league behind Bryant. I might start D. Thomas or Julio Jones over him, though.

 
I need to start two of the following: V.Jackson, H.Nicks, AJ Green. In my league (non-PPR), they are ranked the 8th, 10th, and 11th WR's, respectively. Not really not sure what to do.

 
i am starting harvin, nicks and beanie over him without any consternation.

vjax vs green is tough. def wouldnt be playing guys like holmes, demaryius and marshall over him.

 
FWIW, I'm doubling down on VJax today. Starting him over Antonio Brown in one league, and over Santonio Holmes in another. I just can't pass up the chance for one of his explosive games. The fantasy playoffs is no time to go conservative, IMHO. Good luck to us all.

I'm daring to do the opposite and starting D Thomas and the juicy NE matchup over VJax.Yes, I'm getting cute in the playoffs but swinging for the fences with opponent having Roddy Whit blow up.
 
Rotoworld:

Updating an earlier item, Vincent Jackson missed Chargers practice Wednesday with a groin injury.

Jackson suffered the injury in Sunday's win over the Ravens. According to coach Norv Tunrer, Jackson "just came out of (Week 15) a little sore." Jackson was slowed by a hamstring injury for much of October and early November, but never missed a game. For now, consider him likely to play against the Lions, but what he does Thursday will make it easier to get a read on his Week 16 status.

 
Counting on Vjax in my championship game with Nicks on Revis island. Can't expect any more than 75 and a TD dro

Hakeem so I need a Vjax explosion.

 
Looks like he was held out of practice again today, but Turner commented that he expected V Jax to play.

Makes me nervous, but his upside this week is exponential.

Vincent Jackson (groin) was held out of practice again on Thursday.Coach Norv Turner has gone from "expecting" V-Jax to play to "hoping" he's out there. It still looks like the Bolts' No. 1 receiver is simply getting as much rest as possible. As long as Jackson suits up, he has to be played against an undermanned Lions secondary that has been shredded of late. Dec 22 - 2:39 PMSource: Michael Gehlken on Twitter
 
Wow, I had basically ignored this injury since it came out of nowhere... Now it looks like a legit GTD. And even if he goes its risky.

sdutChargers S.D. U-T Chargers

RT @merrel158: @sdutChargers, what's up w VJax? Is he playing? >Might not. Game-time decision. Groin hasn't responded as well as hoped.
