Port...what ya think? I have to start 4 WR/TE. I will obviously start Boldin and Roy Williams, but I am struggling with my other 2.
Issac Bruce vs Lions (I like this matchup)
Ike Hilliard (with Galloway out)
Matt Jones
Dallas Clark

i think i'm going to try to pawn matt cassell off on a team who has shitty QBs...should i go for a WR (maybe brandon marshall) or package taylor and cassell for a RB like DMac, lynch or portis?


If it's the same guys from your baseball league you should be able to do the above trade, otherwise, no one with a brain would make that trade.

LT won't be fully healthy


IYO, how healthy is LT? Would he be unhealthy enough to roll the dice and sit McFadden (toe) to put Sproles as my number 2 RB?

Adrian Peterson seems to be having trouble with soreness this week. I know that I'm going to start Gore, but should I start Michael Turner (against KC) over Peterson this week?

I don't think Turner is a top flight back, but man you gotta love him against that KC defense. However, if AP is playing you gotta start him.

I think Peterson will play here is what ESPN has to say
quote:

News: Peterson (hamstring) did not participate in practice on Thursday despite doing some work on a blocking sled in the early portion that media members are allowed to watch. "He didn't participate today so that probably says what it says," head coach Brad Childress told the Minneapolis Star Tribune. "DNP. He was limited [Wednesday]. It's a concern. Your legs are your legs. We'll just see how he comes out by the time we get to Sunday."
quote:

Spin: We're not sure how significant it is that he missed full team workouts on Thursday when he was able to dress and do some work. Peterson still says the injury isn't serious and he can play this week, but fantasy owners will need to watch the situation closely the next few days.

Agreed. However, the difficult part is deciding the last spot between Clark, Hilliard, and Jones.

Looks good, but it will probably kill you. Portis will have another week 1, LT will pull himself out in the first quarter, Cutler will throw 2 INTs trying to get it to Marshall and call him a POS and decide not to throw the ball to him anymore, Roy Williams will get all the catches, and Boldin will get all the catches.
I'm telling you. This crap always happens to me.

Who to start? Romo or Jay Cutler. Cutler blew up last week and they are playing the saints. Dallas is playing Green bay. Both are on a roll this year.

If I was in this situation, I would literally flip a coin. Another good idea is ask the guy who you are playing who he wants to start? It messes with them so much when they lose because of it.

Fitz & Jennings

Titans' secondary is damn good and will make stopping Andre their #1 priority come Sunday.

Sorry for asking the same question again, but here goes....

quote:

I'm in a must win game (0-2), made some big changes. League is 1pt/10yds rushing or reciving and 1 pt/20 return yards. What 3 RB's (2 RB, 1 RB/WR) should I start:

Steven Jackson v. Seattle
Reggie Bush v. Denver
Chris Johnson v. Houston
Ryan Grant v. Dallas
Edge James v. Washington
Darren Sproles v. NYJ

I'm thinking Jackson, Johnson, Bush but I hate to leave Sproles on the bench with the potential for return yards and LT being banged up.

You guys think that Maurice Jones Drew is a good start this week as a RB2 or Flex play?
If you listen to the guys on NFL Live, they say he is. Last night they mentioned that Indy was giving up 180 yards on the ground pre-Sanders injury.

I don't have many other options, so MDJ is starting for my team.
