Who Are You Playing in Place of Andre Johnson? (1 Viewer)

[JMJ]

Lets face it, Andre Johnson is by far the most significant player getting screwed up due to Hurricane Ike. Normally you have time to plan around your byes while this one really just came out of left field.

2 big money leagues, 12 men in each, both start 2 RB, 2 WR, one starts a RB/WR also, while the other starts a RB/WR and a WR/TE:

League one = Andre Johnson out; David PatteRn in. Only other option is Andre Hall.

League two = Andre Johnson out; Laveraneus Coles in. Doesn't sound too bad right? But I also have Hines Ward in this league and rumor has it the Pitt game could have 30+ MPH winds and there is nothing more I can do since my other bench WR in that league is .... wait for it .... Derrick Mason whose game was also PPD.

Lets here it. Who you starting and how has this curveball screwed you up?

No t-shirt pointing necessary. Not relevant and never was funny.

 

[Relentless]

Feeling OKAY starting Evans as my third WR. Sucks not having Johnson, but i guess it gets his bye week out of the way.

 

[NY/NJMFDIVER]

Bob Meachem in a 16 teamer (I lost Nate last week).

 

[Diamond]

Well, I was planning to swap AJ for Hines Ward, seeing as I almost started him over AJ anyway (gotta love that Brownie D). Probably still will for now as I can wait until Sunday night to see about the weather. If the wind is bad (25+ mph) then I'll go with the rook DeSean Jackson on Monday instead. Honestly, I wasn't crazy about AJ's matchup with the Ravens anyway, primarily because I wasn't sure Schaub would survive it after the Pittsburgh debacle.

 

[Routilla]

D. Henderson N.O.

 

[thecardiackid]

S. Rice / Javon Walker

I think I just puked in my mouth a little...

Tried to trade some QB depth this week (Romo, DNabb, Favre, Campbell) for a decent WR3 option even before this game got pushed, but no takers. I think winning the title last year in a dynasty startup isn't helping w/ other owners wanting to help the cause.

 

[the spanker]

Pretty fortunate to have Boldin as my third WR to pair with Marshall (timing couldn't be better!) coming back.

 

[FunkyPlutos]

Sidney Rice and Justin Fargas

 

[BringItOn]

Starting Cotchery instead of AJ with the early BYE..

 

[Sister Havana]

League 1: Lee Evans. This makes me very nervous!

League 2: Chris Chambers.

 

[Jeff Tefertiller]

Matt Jones off of waiver wire. Had Colston, AJ, and Walter .... yuck.

 

[FUBAR]

1. Calvin Johnson

2. Matt Jones

3. Justin Gage

2 and 3 are deep leagues.

This week 2 bye actually helps me out some.

 

[Uncle Humuna]

Dwayne Bowe

 

[a_troll00]

Donald Driver

 

[AnonymousBob]

I'm putting in Torry Holt...who I had previously benched for Devery Henderson.

 

[BeaverBoy]

Putting in Coles. Here's to hoping Favre looks his way a little more this time.

 

[-baller]

I had to wheel eddie royal in there.

 

[Addai's Adidas]

Hank Baskett or Chris Perry. On the fence.

EDIT: ARE that's my final answer,

 

[Butters]

Lee Evans over Torry Holt

 

[Eviloutsider]

Courtney Taylor.

 

[Kiddnets]

Donald Driver

me too and we are lucky IMO - Detroit this week - should have a good game!

 

[smcindoe]

Reggie Williams.

So in other words, nobody.

 

[sunuvabee]

Berrian here starting in place of AJ. My other option was Mark Clayton (BAL)

Been a great year so far, lose Brady, lose Colston, Ike wrecks my week 2 lineup against a great team. I'm ready for something good to happen!

 

[ScottyFargo]

DeShaun Jackson...I hope Dallas doesn't blank him.

 

[Cable]

Bryant Johnson

 

[EssKess]

Dwayne Bowe. We'll see what happens...

 

[FavreCo]

Greg Jennings becasue I am totally stacked at WR.

 

[TeamDingo]

A.Toomer NYG because of S.Smith CAR

 

[Los Gigantes]

Bryant Johnson

me too!Start 4 wrs:Calvin Johnson, Roddy White, Sidney Rice, Bryant JohnsonBench: Andre Johnson, Steve Smith, Mason

 

[Tong Po]

D. Henderson N.O.

Same here... and I'm not really optimistic about it.

Muhammed

This could be a good play this week.

 

[nysfl2]

My bench consists of Reggie Brown (injured), Bobby Engram (injured), and Deion Branch (injured).

I had to go to the free agent pool. I picked up and plugged in Ike Hilliard. Oh, the irony :-(

 

[Fantaholic]

I am just trying to steal him from a paranoid 0-1 team in my league.

 

[dmac37]

Brandon Jackson

I just hope he fills the Norwood role from last week vs the Lions.

 

[LionsFan78]

Muhammed

This could be a good play this week.

I am hoping! Considering my options, he's about the best I could hope for right now.

 

[grif]

David PatteRn

 

[skoalbandit]

Dwayne Bowe

DJ Hackett

 

[SeniorVBDStudent]

D. Henderson N.O.

Starting Henderson instead of K Walter. Not happy about it as Walter is guaranteed albeit pontentially modest WR3 production. Devry could whiff.

 

[Preds]

I had to wheel eddie royal in there.

Same here... though I'm very optimistic about the rook, even with Marshall's return this week.

 

[Cable]

Bryant Johnson

me too!Start 4 wrs:Calvin Johnson, Roddy White, Sidney Rice, Bryant JohnsonBench: Andre Johnson, Steve Smith, Mason

My other would be starting WR is Marques Colston.This week, I'm starting DJ Hackett and Bryant Johnson.I feel your pain...

 

[SuperJohn96]

Muhammed

This could be a good play this week.

I started him over Crayton...he is playing the Bears so he may have some added motivation.

 

[benbadman]

don't laugh.....

WR Devin Hester

i do get 1pt per 40 return yards at least lol

 

[SeniorVBDStudent]

don't laugh.....WR Devin Hester i do get 1pt per 40 return yards at least lol

That's 5 points; what are you complaining about lol
