with gonzalez out for upto 8 weeks, should i cut my losses and drop him so i can pick up chris henry or another player that can actually contribute?

who knows if he will be effective when he returns.

 
Jeff, thanks again for doing all of this.My dilemma is one of too few WR's and with Mcnabb going down, the necessity for a 2nd QB has made my lineup rather unpalatable for next week.Relevant Roster:QB: Garrard, McnabbRB: Peterson, Jackson, Bradshaw, Ward, LynchWR: White, Smith (Car), Bryant (TB)DST: Chargers, EaglesAs you can see I have 5 RB's, all of which I personally like quite a bit. However, there are rumblings that Bryant might miss next Sunday, and even if he doesn't, I'm not comfortable with him.So the question is:Do I drop Bryant and pick up another WR?Do I drop a RB? Say Bradshaw given my depth, and pick up another WR?Roll with Bryant?Here are some WR's available to me, of them, I'm eyeing Laurent Robinson the closest.Stokley, Brandon WR DENStuckey, Chansi WR NYJ Manningham, Mario WR NYG Meachem, Robert WR NOBritt, Kenny WR TENKnox, Johnny WR CHI Robinson, Laurent WR STL Bradley, Mark WR KCBruce, Isaac WR SF Urban, Jerheme WR ARI Bess, Davone WR MIACaldwell, Andre WR CINYour thoughts/time are very much appreciated.P.S -- White and Smith have the same bye (4), so I'd prefer a WR that I can keep until then, but matchup based plays ala Bruce work too :thumbup:
Can you drop one of the defenses instead of Bryant or a RB? I like Stuckey and Robinson the best. Manningham is a good play, too, with Nicks out for the next few weeks. If not, I might dump Ward over Bradshaw. The only reasoning is that if/when Jacobs misses time, Bradshaw will be an every week starter.
Do you think that would be the best play?My hesitance is that the Eagles looked flat out dominant, so I am worried about dropping them, but they play NO in week #2 and without Mcnabb, I can see them seeing the field quite often.Conversely, the Chargers looked pedestrian, but they play Baltimore this week.I also lost last week, which just flat out isn't fair given that I actually had a pretty good point total ;) With an assumed loss in week #4 due to byes, losing week #2 would set me at a predicted 1-3 at the end of week 4, which is a bit disconcerting.Do you think dropping SD is the move, and picking up a WR?Thanks again.
I am assuming you will prob start Philly def every week but week 4 and maybe another. I would start Philly over SD this week even. They should get a sack or three plus they still have good returners. I would dump a defense for a WR

I would keep him. He could help you for playoff push. I would drop Devery Henderson or a defense before dropping AG.

I was thinking of starting SD this week, but I think you've convinced me. Think I'll go with Robinson. Thanks again for all the advice.Edit-- Josh Morgan is also on the wire, take him instead?

definitely. Morgan could explode this week
 
thanks jeff. I have a trade question. I have Grant, K.Smith , LT, L.Washington and Bell at RB and Holmes, Royal, Burleson, Morgan and Holt at WR. I am thinking of offering LT and Royal for Pierre Thomas and Andre Johnson...what are your thoughts, redraft league.

that would be a great deal for you, getting AJ. You have depth to wait on Pierre
 
Would asking for Rodgers, Boldin, Forte, Marshawn Lynch, the 2010 1st/2nd round rookie draft picks and 2011 1st/2nd round rookie draft picks be too much for Adrian Peterson, Warner, Chambers, and maybe some of my late round 2010/2011 picks?

Could you please think of something that would be a good deal for me, but the other owner has a chance to accept?

My team:

QB:

Warner/Leinart/Stafford/Vince Young/McGee/Troy Smith

RB:

Maroney/AD/Pierre Thomas/Deangelo

WR:

Avery/Burton/DHB/Chambers/S Holmes/J Morgan/Nelson/Royal

TE:

Daniels/M Lewis/Cottam

DL

DT: Hovan/S Rogers/Robbins

DE: Abiamiri/J Anderson/Brock/J Parker/Vanden Bosch

LB:

Boley/Burnett/Dansby/Durant/Hayes/J Mays/McIntosh

DB:

S: Atogwe/Griffin/Hope/W Moore

CB:Hayden/Lucas/Springs/Lowery

I think it is much closer without the picks. I still would like the side giving peterson
 
Hi Jeff – just read “Value Plays” and like those articles a lot. For Defenses, you mentioned GB as potentially having a good week 2. I also have Philly who went nuts last week for 35 points.

I’m inclined to stay with the hot hand with Philly playing at home against NO. GB at home against Cincy is intriguing though. Do you also like Philadelphia rather than Green Bay? Thanks.

I think I would stay with Philly. While NO might throw for some yards, Philly has a good defense. Plus, what makes the Eagle defense so good is their return game. I would especially keep Philly if it meant dropping them for the Packers. The Eagles will be a top defense this year.
 
Jeff,

Need some assistance with a possible pickup and decision on who to start (initial thoughts on who to start are in bold). I'm 0-1 in this league with traditional scoring (start 1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, 2 Flex, K, D).

My team:

McNabb, Edwards

LT, SJax, Lynch, Moreno, Bradshaw, D Brown, McCoy

White, Colston, B Edwards, Mason

Folk

Giants D

My opponent is likely starting:

Palmer or Schuab

Jones Drew

R Brown

McFadden

F Jones

R Moss

R Wayne

Burleson

Crosby

NY Jets D

Mike Bell, Josh Morgan, Michael Clayton, and Michael Bush are both available. The only option I have currently is starting Bradshaw and Moreno due to all of my injuries, suspensions, etc. Is Mike Bell, Josh Morgan, Michael Clayton, or Michael Bush an upgrade at the expense of losing McCoy (who will almost certainly be picked up by the Westbrook owner)?

I've tried making a deal with some of my backups (Bradshaw, McCoy, and Brown) but none of the owners are bitting right now as they know the issues I have and think I will lower my targets once I start losing more games.

I would hold tight. Bell has a bad matchup this week vs Philly. Bush is RB2 this week. Have to hope for a TD. While I like Morgan, I would not start him over your other WRs. Moreno vs DBrown is a close one for me

You don't think Bush would outperform Moreno or Bradshaw? The Chiefs did just give up 200 rushing yards to Baltimore and the Raiders love to run.Yeah I'm debating between Moreno and DBrown as well. If I was 100% that Moreno would get 15 touches I would know for sure, but unfortunately I don't.

With the news about Bryant being out for Tampa I thought Clayton would get a lot of looks.

Jeff,

Another question but not really related to the one above.

Do you think I should try to trade for Fred Jackson and should I be concerned about a possible RBBC when Lynch returns?

here is the roster of the Jackson owner...any possible trade thoughts?

Brady, Favre

Portis, R Grant, E James, F Jackson

A Johnson, Witten, Gates, B Marshall, Cotchery, Hixon, Crabtree

K Brown

Baltimore D

I'd love to get him for this week, but I'm not sure he would do it for McCoy (probably want Bradshaw or D Brown). Or should i try to target one of his WRs as well?

Say Mason and D Brown for Marshall and Jackson?

 
Hi Jeff. I'm in a 12-team PPR dynasty league. 1 pt per reception, 1 pt for every ten yds rec, 6 pts for td, 2 for 2pt conversion. I am looking at the waiver wire for a TE of the future, and have it down to M. Bennett or J. Finley. Which one do you think has the higher upside for dynasty purposes? Also, what about for this season? Thanks in advance.

I do think MBush and prob morgan and mike clayton will outproduce moreno/brown and edwards. But, I was coming from the angle of whether or not it was worth it to drop a very good player for a one-week fix. I do think MBush and Mike Clayton will have big weeks though

in a redraft, I would give DBrown for Fred Jackson. I know it is risky, but Jackson looks good. With injuries, you may not have to worry about RBBC in Buffalo. Jauron is a run coach, not pass.

I like Bennett much more for the future, but it may take three years for him to be startable in fantasy leagues. Finley has a lower ceiling, imo, but should be ok by midseason. It will take him that long to surpass Lee.
 
Hi Jeff, new subscriber here and I'm looking for ideas -- I have a tight roster without much room for pickups, there is some talent on the WW, and I'm facing some bye week issues in the near future.

12 team non-PPR

QB: Schaub, Garrard

RB: LT2, Ryan Grant, McFadden, Rice, Moreno

WR: Moss(8), Ochocinco(8), Driver(5), Hester(5)

TE: Heap, Shiancoe

K: Tynes

D: San Diego

On the WW: Bradshaw, L. McCoy, C. Taylor, M. Bush, S. Smith (NYG), Coles, L. Robinson, Josh Morgan, Schilens, Meachem, Britt, M. Sanchez (and some other crummy QBs)

This is the type of league where many people will hang onto two D's, two TE's, some will have 3 QBs, etc, from past experience -- so WW can be a little tight when looking for a D or TE during bye weeks.

I added Heap and dropped a WR since I picked so late at TE and hate getting bagel'ed at the position, but I don't know that it's a great idea to carry two TE's with the talent on the wire and upcoming need for a WR. But Heap is a fragile dude.

Any ideas? Currently I'm flipping between sitting tight for another week and seeing how my TEs pan out, vs dropping one sooner and picking up a WR. And even considering dropping Garrard and grabbing another RB lotto ticket and then hoping that there's something serviceable on the wire at QB.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks Jeff. I just checked the dynasty rankings and you had Finley five spots better than Bennett (16 vs 21). Has something changed in a significant way for this reversal?

That is more of a function of timing. I think Finley is worth more because he will make an impact soonest. But, if you ask which I want to own for the next 10 years, I will take Bennett. Most care about the nearer term, so my rankings reflect that. Sorry for the confusion

I would look at dropping Garrard (as long as there is a decent option on waiver). I would give the TEs another week. I think both could have big weeks. Shockey went bonkers against Detroit and so did Zach Miller against the Chargers. I think you need one more WR. I would suggest Morgan or Schilens. My thinking on Garrard is that if Schaub is injured, will Garrard carry you to the championship. I would look at the schedule and pick up a defense a week early just to make sure you get a good one to cover week five.
 
Jeff,

PPR dynasty would you trade R. Brown for Royal? Without listing my roster I'm stronger at RB than I am at WR, also set up to win now and the future.

I like Royal still for dynasty. Like him a lot. But, Brown is worth more. I am not a huge Brown fan, but some are. Some think he is a top 10 back, even in PPR.

My trade offer of A Bradshaw for Hines Ward was just accepted. However, stupid yahoo rules won't make it effective till week 3.Do you think I should still proceed with the DBrown for Fred Jackson trade?
 
Jeff,

Here's my team, we start 1 QB, 2 HB, 2 WR, 1 TE, 1 K, 1 Def. My starters for week 2 are bold.

QB - Palmer, Campbell

HB - MJD, Kevin Smith, Leon Washington, Chester Taylor

WR - Reggie Wayne, Braylon Edwards, Derrick Mason, Devery Henderson

TE - Jason Witten, Randy McMichael

K - Matt Prater

DEF - Bears

This is a PPR 14 team league so the waiver wire is thin to quite thin...

At WR these are the guys that I'm watching...

Laurent Robinson

Andre Caldwell

Kenny Britt

Antwaan Randle El

Robert Meachem

Chansi Stuckey

Mario Manningham

With Braylon looking like more of a bust that I am afraid to drop, my WR4 slot is my rotating door for flyers. I have been starting Mason at WR2 for the safe points but at some point I'm going to need bigger production out of that spot. My QBs are scaring me and there is nothing out there unless Warner goes down and I can get Matt Leinart.

So I guess the question is do I grab Robinson or one of the other Waiver Gems now and drop Henderson or do I stay put and wait.

If I'm not picking anyone up this week, do I go with Mason again against the Chargers or do I go with Braylon or Henderson?

I'm leaning towards Mason this is what My opponent will be starting

QB - Rodgers

WR - T.O., Santana Moss

RB - Willis McGahee, Fred Jackson

TE - Heath Miller

K - Akers

DEF - Green Bay

As always, I appreciate your input Jeff.

-Eric

I'm leaning towards Mason this is what My opponent will be starting

QB - Rodgers

WR - T.O., Santana Moss

RB - Willis McGahee, Fred Jackson

TE - Heath Miller

K - Akers

DEF - Green Bay

As always, I appreciate your input Jeff.

Hey Eric, being such a large league, I would look to strengthen QB and WR if possible. You are very strong at RB. I play in a couple of 16 teamers and understand the shallowness of the waiver wire. I would look to drop McMichael for Robinson, Stuckey or Manningham for upside sake. I would also strongly consider dumping Campbell for Leinart. Campbell will not win you many games, but Leinart might. I know that sounds crazy, but other QBs shuld emerge to cover the Palmer bye if Warner can stay healthy (doubtful). If you want to keep Campbell, I would dump McMichael for Leinart. I do think Edwards will be better than your waiver options. So, an upside QB might be best move.

Jeff,Another question but not really related to the one above.Do you think I should try to trade for Fred Jackson and should I be concerned about a possible RBBC when Lynch returns?here is the roster of the Jackson owner...any possible trade thoughts?Brady, FavrePortis, R Grant, E James, F JacksonA Johnson, Witten, Gates, B Marshall, Cotchery, Hixon, CrabtreeK BrownBaltimore DI'd love to get him for this week, but I'm not sure he would do it for McCoy (probably want Bradshaw or D Brown). Or should i try to target one of his WRs as well?Say Mason and D Brown for Marshall and Jackson?
in a redraft, I would give DBrown for Fred Jackson. I know it is risky, but Jackson looks good. With injuries, you may not have to worry about RBBC in Buffalo. Jauron is a run coach, not pass.
My trade offer of A Bradshaw for Hines Ward was just accepted. However, stupid yahoo rules won't make it effective till week 3.Do you think I should still proceed with the DBrown for Fred Jackson trade?
yes. You need a good RB starter this week
As I found out with the other trade it won't be effective till week 3.BTW, what do you think of my trade?

I like both trades. So, all trades have a week lag? If so, I would not trade for FJax if you only get him for one week as a starter. I do like getting Hines Ward. He is so underrated.
 
which 3 do i start this week?

boldin

desean jackson

kein walter

devery henderson

or should i pick one of the following of the wire? stucky, devon bess, laurent robinson, kenny britt or josh morgan. the reason i ask is bcuz boldin and walter are all dealing with injuries.

I think Boldin plays, but who knows. I am not a devery henderson fan. I like stuckey and morgan and would get one of them just to make sure you are not hanging out to dry on Sunday.

Jeff,

Here's my team, we start 1 QB, 2 HB, 2 WR, 1 TE, 1 K, 1 Def. My starters for week 2 are bold.

QB - Palmer, Campbell

HB - MJD, Kevin Smith, Leon Washington, Chester Taylor

WR - Reggie Wayne, Braylon Edwards, Derrick Mason, Devery Henderson

TE - Jason Witten, Randy McMichael

K - Matt Prater

DEF - Bears

This is a PPR 14 team league so the waiver wire is thin to quite thin...

At WR these are the guys that I'm watching...

Laurent Robinson

Andre Caldwell

Kenny Britt

Antwaan Randle El

Robert Meachem

Chansi Stuckey

Mario Manningham

With Braylon looking like more of a bust that I am afraid to drop, my WR4 slot is my rotating door for flyers. I have been starting Mason at WR2 for the safe points but at some point I'm going to need bigger production out of that spot. My QBs are scaring me and there is nothing out there unless Warner goes down and I can get Matt Leinart.

So I guess the question is do I grab Robinson or one of the other Waiver Gems now and drop Henderson or do I stay put and wait.

Thanks Jeff, unfortunately we can only keep double what we start. So I can only roster 2 QBs, 4 RBs, 4 WRs, 2 TEs, 2 Ks, and 2 DEF with a total of 14 roster spots. Sorry I forgot to mention that. I thought about dumping Campbell for Leinart now but I feel like I have to play Campbell vs the Rams this week. Carson may not have a lot of success against the 3-4 blitzing of Green Bay. So is Henderson worth keeping and possibly starting or do I need to go with Robinson.

Thanks Jeff

I would swap out the WRs from Henderson to either Robinson or Stuckey. Then, swap QBs next week.
 
Hi Jeff,

Who should I start?

Standard scoring league, plus return yards 1/25.

RB2: Julius Jones (@SF), Mike Bell (@PHI), Thomas Jones (vs. NE)

I worry that Bell will lose carries to Pierre Thomas but that the Joneses got their production due to good matchups last week.

WR2: Justin Gage (vs. HOU), VJax (vs. BAL)

Gage has the good matchup, VJax the lousy one, but I feel like the Titans will run a lot and the Chargers will have to throw a lot since they'll get nothing on the ground.

Different league, no return scoring:

RB2: JJ (@SF), Ronnie Brown (vs. IND)

I like Brown, but Ricky cut into his carries last week, more than I thought he would.

WR2: Braylon (@DEN), Bowe (vs. OAK)

Don't know if Cassell is right, and I'm afraid that Asomugha will shut down Bowe.

QB: Rivers (vs. BAL), Big Ben (@CHI)

Rivers does have the tough matchup and the O-line can't keep him upright, but he's going to have to air it out. Then again, I feel the same about Big Ben.

Thanks much!

I almost outscored my 10 man starting lineup with my 8-man bench in week 1. I am in a PPR league with scoring as follows...

3 pts pass TD (3pt bonus for 40+ yard TD pass)

-1 for int

0.5 pt for 10yds

6 pts for ANY rushing or receiving TD (TE,RB,WR,QB) (3pt bonus for 40+ rec or rush TD)

0.1 pt for 1 yard of either rush or rec yard

-2 pts for any lost fumble.

Start 1QB, 2RB, 3WR, 1TE, 1OP(QB,RB,WR, or TE), 1D/ST, 1K

Here are my questions...

QB - Roethlisberger, Schaub, Sanchez

Planning on starting Big Ben, I figure he is hot, and Schaub has yet to show me he is my #1 QB.

1) Right?

RB - Chris Johnson, Ronnie Brown, Chester Taylor, Jerious Norwood.

Starting Johnson for sure, but with Ronnie in a timeshare and it being a PPR league, leaning toward starting Taylor as my #2RB.

2) Is that dumb? Am I risking my bench outscoring my starters again by doing this? (I'm a longtime Vikings fan and I think every time they play a weak team and are "supposed" to destroy them, they either don't and it's close or they LOSE - like the Lions game last year - and I have a feeling they will be behind a fair amount of the time and use Taylor as a dump off, TE like option.)

WR - A. Johnson, D. Bowe, Justin Gage, D. Hester, Donnie Avery, Michael Jenkins, Breaston (dropped Hicks from NYG - he was supposed to be my shark move this year, but I had 8 WR and needed a 2nd TE, and so I picked up Heap)

Starting A. Johnson, D. Bowe - planning on Gage as the #3WR. I figure that Pit makes it hard for Cutler to hit Hester a lot. I guess there is not a question here, just being complete and letting you know about my team, oops.

TE - Gates and Heap

Planning on starting Gates, but my question is 3) is Heap a starter in my OP spot, or is he my #1 TE this week, and make Gates the OP starter?

4) If so, is he going to fare better than Schaub or Ronnie Brown in the OP spot. Part of me in my gut is saying start Sanchez against the Seymour-less Pats as they will be behind and throwing a lot, but then again the Jets are running their mouths off and I think the Pats might just pull another go for 4th down while leading by 56 points kind of a statment. Leaning toward starting Heap as my OP with Ronnie Brown #2 in my mind for now.

I tried to not make this a question where some dude like me says, "pick my QB, pick my 2 RB's , pick my 3 WR's, etc".

Thanks for your time and any advice you can give to me.

I'm 0-1 after last week's let down by Schaub, A. Johnson, and my top 2 RB's Johnson and Brown (note to self, don't draft guys in a RBBC setup, its frustrating), so if you have general suggestions or advice to please help a newbie to Fantasy Football out.

Thanks for your time...

Sincerely,

Scott D aka Pyro boy

 
Hi Jeff

I'm in a PPR league. Which team defence would you take this week out of the following 2?

1. New Orleans at Philly

or

2. Denver vs Clevland

Thanks...

 
Hey Jeff, need some help with starters

League 1- h2h auction keeper league no ppr

1 QB, 2 RB, 4 WR/TE, 1 K, 1 DEF

QB- Rodgers

RB- Chris Johnson, Thomas Jones(with LT not playing)

WR/TE- R. Moss, Calvin Johnson,

K- K. Brown

DEF- GB

At WR/TE #3 and #4 I can choose between Boldin, Driver, K. Walter, C. Cooley, and M. Clayton(TB)

Just not sure if I want to risk the Boldin(injury, lack of targets, etc) start when Driver has a great matchup and I have good options at WR#4.

League 2- H2H league ppr, all TDs 6 pts

1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, 1 TE, 1 K, 1 DEF

QB- Romo

RB- Chris Johnson,

WR- Moss, Bowe, V. Jackson

TE- Cooley

at RB 2 I could go with Leon Washington or R. Brown. I like Leon's matchup after seeing what Fred Jackson did last week. I hope Ronnie Brown gets more involved this week. Would you go with Heap instead of Cooley? Also, although my Wr's don't have the best matchups my other matchups are T. Ginn. Jr, D. Hixon, M. Jenkins, and M. Clayton(TB)

League 3- H2H league, 1 pt/10 yards receiving and 1 pt/15 yards rushing. All TD's 6 pts

1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, 1 TE, 1 K, 1 DEF

QB- Garrard(don't like it but I think he puts up a descent week)

RB- Adrian Peterson,

WR- R. Wayne, Housh(injury?),

TE- Witten

At RB2 I have the following options: R. Brown, K. Moreno, M. Bush(Oak), Chester Taylor, and FWP

At WR3 I have the folowing options: D. Hester, D. Avery

Thanks

 
Alright, me again: same league with .5 PPR, 1/10 rush, 1/15 rec, 1/30 pass, all TDs 6

Chester Taylor

Ahmad Bradshaw

Jerricho Cotchery

Michael Clayton (Bryant out)

Josh Morgan

Already running with Ryan Grant, AD, Housh, and Colston - this is the flex decision

QB is Schaub...Russell going against KC though I think it's not the best idea to try and get cute starting Russell?

 
Hi Jeff,

Standard scoring league, plus return yards 1/25.

RB2: Julius Jones (@SF), Mike Bell (@PHI), Thomas Jones (vs. NE)

I worry that Bell will lose carries to Pierre Thomas but that the Joneses got their production due to good matchups last week.

Thomas Jones. Not a believer in Julius and have the same worry you do with Bell.

WR2: Justin Gage (vs. HOU), VJax (vs. BAL)

Gage has the good matchup, VJax the lousy one, but I feel like the Titans will run a lot and the Chargers will have to throw a lot since they'll get nothing on the ground.

I would go with Gage. BAL shut down Bowe for most part last week. I think gage is safest and they have similar upside.

Different league, no return scoring:

RB2: JJ (@SF), Ronnie Brown (vs. IND)

I like Brown, but Ricky cut into his carries last week, more than I thought he would.

Brown easily

WR2: Braylon (@DEN), Bowe (vs. OAK)

Don't know if Cassell is right, and I'm afraid that Asomugha will shut down Bowe.

Braylon. I think Nnamdi will lock on to Bowe.

QB: Rivers (vs. BAL), Big Ben (@CHI)

Rivers does have the tough matchup and the O-line can't keep him upright, but he's going to have to air it out. Then again, I feel the same about Big Ben.



Big Ben after watching Rodgers have a good game vs Chicago. The Bears are good against the run, forcing teams to pass.

Thanks much!
good luck

Here are my questions...

QB - Roethlisberger, Schaub, Sanchez

Planning on starting Big Ben, I figure he is hot, and Schaub has yet to show me he is my #1 QB.

1) Right?



I like Ben this week. I think he can have another big week.

RB - Chris Johnson, Ronnie Brown, Chester Taylor, Jerious Norwood.

Starting Johnson for sure, but with Ronnie in a timeshare and it being a PPR league, leaning toward starting Taylor as my #2RB.

2) Is that dumb? Am I risking my bench outscoring my starters again by doing this? (I'm a longtime Vikings fan and I think every time they play a weak team and are "supposed" to destroy them, they either don't and it's close or they LOSE - like the Lions game last year - and I have a feeling they will be behind a fair amount of the time and use Taylor as a dump off, TE like option.)

I like Chester, too, this week, but Brown might be the better play this week. They are close enough to go either way.

WR - A. Johnson, D. Bowe, Justin Gage, D. Hester, Donnie Avery, Michael Jenkins, Breaston (dropped Hicks from NYG - he was supposed to be my shark move this year, but I had 8 WR and needed a 2nd TE, and so I picked up Heap)

Starting A. Johnson, D. Bowe - planning on Gage as the #3WR. I figure that Pit makes it hard for Cutler to hit Hester a lot. I guess there is not a question here, just being complete and letting you know about my team, oops.



I live Avery and Gage best of these. I think Gage has a big game. Avery is one of those guys who will explode in the next few weeks ... after recovering from the foot injury.

TE - Gates and Heap

Planning on starting Gates, but my question is 3) is Heap a starter in my OP spot, or is he my #1 TE this week, and make Gates the OP starter?

I would start Gates for sure. You would feel silly sitting him when he goes off.

4) If so, is he going to fare better than Schaub or Ronnie Brown in the OP spot. Part of me in my gut is saying start Sanchez against the Seymour-less Pats as they will be behind and throwing a lot, but then again the Jets are running their mouths off and I think the Pats might just pull another go for 4th down while leading by 56 points kind of a statement. Leaning toward starting Heap as my OP with Ronnie Brown #2 in my mind for now.



I would start a QB in the OP spot. Either Sanchez or Scahub. Both should be better options than Heap or the RB. I think I might go with Schaub.

I tried to not make this a question where some dude like me says, "pick my QB, pick my 2 RB's , pick my 3 WR's, etc".

Thanks for your time and any advice you can give to me.

Good luck this week. You have a good team.
 
Hi JeffI'm in a PPR league. Which team defence would you take this week out of the following 2?1. New Orleans at Philly or2. Denver vs ClevlandThanks...
NO vs Philly. Kolb is erratic and NO has better return game. Quinn is so conservative, he does not throw picks like the wannabee gunslinger Kolb

Just not sure if I want to risk the Boldin(injury, lack of targets, etc) start when Driver has a great matchup and I have good options at WR#4. I love Mike Clayton this week with Bryant out of the lineup. I, too, am sitting Boldin this week. Walter is hurt, too.

League 2- H2H league ppr, all TDs 6 pts

1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, 1 TE, 1 K, 1 DEF

Heap has a great matchup vs SD. Look what ZMiller did to the Chargers last week. I love Clayton this week with Bryant out. I think he has a big week.

League 3- H2H league, 1 pt/10 yards receiving and 1 pt/15 yards rushing. All TD's 6 pts

1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, 1 TE, 1 K, 1 DEF

At WR3 I have the folowing options: D. Hester, D. Avery

Brown, Bush, or Chester are who I would consider. I think Bush will score a TD against the pathetic run defense of KC. Either he or Brown for me. At WR, I think I would go with Avery. Pitt has a great defense for Hester. Avery has the better chance at a monster game.

Thanks
Good luck.

Start Schaub without question. Would be kicking yourself doing that and losing. I would go with one of the WRs. Cotchery is probably the best bet, with Clayton 2nd. The Rbs could have decent games, but Cotch vs NE in a slugfest and Clyaton as WR1 have good matchups.
