I don't think there will be a huge difference between Thomas and Ingrams numbers this week. The fins will probably abandon the run early, I would think, so I would go with whichever you were more comfortable with. If P. Thomas is definitely out of NO though, I would start Ingram.

Two QB questions:

Stafford vs. 49ers
or
Eli vs. Buffalo

Newton @ ATL
or
Romo @ NE

10/16/2011 10:12:55 AM

Stafford and Newton.

As a die-hard NY fan, I still say fuck Eli, especially when it comes to reliable fantasy play. Also, as a NY fan, I hate Tony Romo and he's been garbage this year. I know NE's secondary is no good, but Dallas is on the road. Austin being back should help, but Newton's been solid all year and I don't feel guilty about hopping on that bandwagon.



Last one.

For my 2 RB's and Flex option:
Cedric Benson
Ryan Torain
Mark Ingram
AJ Green

I'm thinking AJ Green is a must start, so out of those 3 RB's, pick 2. I have Benson and Torain, but I still am not sold.

10/16/2011 10:33:15 AM

I am a diehard Bills fan which is why I was thinking Eli, Buffalo gives up a ton of yards.

I would go with what you have (Green, Torian, and Benson) unless there has been an update on Hightower's shoulder. If he is good to go today, Ingram might be a better choice over Torain.

I would go Stafford and Romo. If Romo is going to have a good game this year, this week should be it.

pick 2 (0.5ppr):
Michael Turner vs. Car
Cedric Benson vs. Indy
Steven Jackson @ GB

pick 1 (0.5ppr):
Robert Meachem @ TB
Kevin Walter @ Balt

10/16/2011 11:39:23 AM

^ first in each category



Delaine walker or Ed Dickson or Ben Watson

Bottom of the barrel, here.

10/16/2011 11:46:12 AM

^dont know who anyone is but watson..... jacoby jones or derrick mason?

10/16/2011 12:09:37 PM

^ Both are poor but Mason was just traded to Houston so I don't see him getting much playing time. Go Jones.
^^I'd flip a coin on Watson or Dickson, don't go Walker (Davis is in the way).

Would you play Torain or E. Graham. Looking for a fill in for Blount who's out. They say that Hightower will play today so I'm worried about Torain's number of touches. Of course they are playing the Eagles who are terrible against the run.

[Edited on October 16, 2011 at 12:12 PM. Reason : .]

10/16/2011 12:10:10 PM

^^^Dickson, he gets a lot of looks and Watson is competing with Moore, and Walker is in the same situation with Brown.

^^Jones, he got a ton of targets last week.

^Graham, very dynamic. The use him all the time in the passing game and he is underrated as a runner. If the game is decent, he will get a bunch of touches.

10/16/2011 12:18:53 PM

^^Graham by a long shot. I have Blount and was going to pick Graham up if the injury ends Blount's season. Graham was already the better pass catching back, and will make up for fewer rushing yards with extra receiving yards.

10/16/2011 12:29:37 PM

torrey smith vs. texans
or
james jones vs. rams


think ill be safe and go with jones (smith has one good day, 0 points every other week)

[Edited on October 16, 2011 at 12:37 PM. Reason : ]

10/16/2011 12:32:43 PM

drop either and pick up greg little and start him

10/16/2011 12:37:55 PM

couldn't think of a smartass post that wouldn't seem douchey

he's on a roster already

10/16/2011 12:41:21 PM

how about danario alexander

10/16/2011 12:43:40 PM

or just play Jones

10/16/2011 1:47:40 PM

Keeping desean jackson was such a bad decision.

Playing against rodgers sucks balls

[Edited on October 16, 2011 at 2:44 PM. Reason : .]

10/16/2011 2:27:20 PM

Shit I may have to start playing Curtis Painter over Freeman.

10/16/2011 3:39:35 PM

Start Pierre Thomas at flex or Aaron Hernandez (questionable but should play). This is a ppr league.

10/16/2011 3:42:07 PM

Cmon ppl quickly now

10/16/2011 4:03:43 PM

eh tough call, I guess Hernandez just for the receiving yards should be greater than rushing yards

10/16/2011 4:06:18 PM

Thats what I'm thinking

10/16/2011 4:07:18 PM

Went from dominating keeper league to being winless and dead last.

Kept Charles, Desean, Hillis, VJ, and didn't keep Forte. So dumb.

First and goal at the 1 and they don't run Hillis? Assholes

[Edited on October 16, 2011 at 4:50 PM. Reason : .]

10/16/2011 4:41:52 PM

Anybody who plays espn leagues... why hasn't the raiders d/st been credited with the 2 touchdowns they've put up?

10/16/2011 6:25:29 PM

Hillis will ruin me. I guess he did get vaginal rejuvenation surgery.

10/16/2011 6:38:19 PM

Out of Delaine walker, Watson, and Dickson, Walker had the best day. FML

10/16/2011 6:56:35 PM

down 102.5-102

He has Adrian Peterson left.

I have Mark Sanchez, Minnesota D, and Robbie Gould.

I really hope this is a defensive field goal game tonight.

10/16/2011 7:35:53 PM

I picked up the Raiders defense this week too. WTH?

10/16/2011 7:48:05 PM

Didn't start Mendenhall today, I would have lost anyway though

10/16/2011 7:49:55 PM

I have a guy requesting a trade proposal.

I would get the Lawfirm for Stevie Johnson.

My other RBs are J. Stewart, M. Turner, and A. Bradshaw.
My other WRs are V. Jackson, D. Bowe, AJ. Green, N. Washington, and D. Hester.

[Edited on October 17, 2011 at 9:17 AM. Reason : his other RBs are C. Benson, Ray Rice (he won't trade him), and S. Jackson]

10/17/2011 9:15:29 AM

I've now been offered Ced Benson and BGE for Stevie Johnson and Nate Washington.

Ah decisions. Thoughts on either these two propositions?

10/17/2011 11:36:23 AM

Dropped Hester last week, mfer actually performed this week... Oh well, still have Nicks, Welker, Nelson, and T. Smith.

10/17/2011 11:50:50 AM

That second proposition is gonna leave you pretty thin at WR (do you play 3 WRs or 2 WR and 1 RB/WR?) but both those trades seem pretty fair, IMO. I guess it kinda depends on whether you want to keep your WR depth and no improve your RBs...Or sacrifice your WR depth and have a very solid group of RBs. But the trade offers look fair to me.

Next week the Bills have a bye...my backup RB (freddy jackson is on my team) is James Starks. Are any of these FAs a better option than Starks?
Michael Bush
LT
Tashard Choice
Reggie Bush
Pierre Thomas

I'm thinking Starks is best out of those...might need to work a trade this week to get a decent RB2.

[Edited on October 17, 2011 at 3:07 PM. Reason : ]

10/17/2011 3:05:59 PM

I played Newton over Stafford this week =

Damn you fucking Yahoo fantasy experts!

10/17/2011 3:19:45 PM

dmspack, we only start 2 WRs and 1 Flex

The only FA that would be working picking up to me is Reggie Bush but I would have a hard time starting him over Starks until he has proven he is going to be a factor in their offense.

10/17/2011 4:11:31 PM

this is more of a bitchfest than a request for advice but

daniel thomas and that damn Q. I could pick up Plax, Hartline or bess but i'd feel far more confortable w/ a playing thomas than any of them.

10/17/2011 6:34:10 PM

I'm being offered Andre Johnson and Fred Jackson for Desean Jackson, Chis Johnson and Shonn Greene. I already have Matt Forte and Frank Gore.

But I'm hoping AJ would be an upgrade of Desean at wr? Jackson has been a stud so far and we all know CJ's struggles. Should I expect this trend to continue, or will they eventually flip flop?

10/17/2011 6:57:05 PM

^^Isn't Thomas active?

ClaytonESPN John Clayton
Daniel Thomas is active for the game. he's recovered from the hamstring injury. Steve Slaton is a healthy scratch.

10/17/2011 7:50:07 PM

Yeah if Thomas is active, a much better option.

10/17/2011 7:52:05 PM

I need the jets to kick no FG's and no more than 4 extra points

10/17/2011 9:07:41 PM

^opposite, i need 1 more fg from folk! or 16 yards from thomas...

oh well

[Edited on October 17, 2011 at 11:26 PM. Reason : for various reason, ideal sit would be no matt moore, td drive w/ use of thomas]

10/17/2011 11:18:11 PM

I got a couple of waiver pick ups that I am considering in two seperate leagues.

Drop Decker and pick up Nate Washington (other wrs are Megatron, Jennings, and Boldin so this seems like a no-brainer).

Drop Hightower and pick up Earnest Graham (other rbs are Forte, Foster, and Torain; dropping Hightower assuming that Torain gets the starting job).

Any thoughts/red flags?

10/17/2011 11:55:49 PM

With the brandon loyd trade does that make Decker more valuable than Washington? I, too trust Hasselback more than Tebow though. I agree with dropping hightower.

10/18/2011 1:11:49 AM

Who is the better WR option the rest of the year Steve Smith or Brandon Marshall?

10/18/2011 8:15:02 AM

steve smith. he scores touchdowns. marshall will put up big yardage numbers, but he is lost in the red zone right now. last night he had 3 targets in the first half in the red zone and came away with nothing.


pick 2

murray (handcuff for felix jones) vs. STL
shonn greene vs SD
Ernest Graham (handcuff for largarette blount) vs chi

10/18/2011 8:21:27 AM

graham and greene.


how much does Carson Palmer help/hurt Heyward-Bey's value? He's been tearing it up recently.

10/18/2011 12:26:38 PM

I think Palmer keeps all Oakland RBs and WRs the same as they were before. But I don't expect to see Palmer starting until after their BYE week next week.

10/18/2011 12:33:16 PM

I have a guy requesting a trade proposal and I want to hear what you guys think about this.

I would get the Lawfirm for Stevie Johnson.

My RBs are J. Stewart, M. Turner, and A. Bradshaw.
My WRs are V. Jackson, S. Johnson, D. Bowe, AJ. Green, N. Washington, and D. Hester.

I've also been offered Ced Benson and BGE for Stevie Johnson and Nate Washington.

or

Benson for Washington

We start 2 WRs, 2 RBs, and 1 Flex. This is a PPR league.

Thoughts?

[Edited on October 18, 2011 at 12:52 PM. Reason : .]

10/18/2011 12:48:12 PM

Hell, I'd take Benson for Washington. You have Bradshaw and Turner, so you aren't totally desperate for another RB. Washington is like your 5th WR at best.

10/18/2011 1:38:04 PM

^Agreed.

Due to bye weeks I've got an open WR slot. Who would you play:
Eric Decker (he'll be the #1 option in DEN, but Tebow's at QB so it's hard to say how he'll fare with that)
Hines Ward (a couple of decent games in a row, but still not the primary option in PIT)
Mike Williams (13 targets last week but has been pretty disappointing all year)

[Edited on October 18, 2011 at 2:04 PM. Reason : ]

10/18/2011 2:02:22 PM

^ I'd play Decker, no doubt.


Evaluate these trades:

Give Ahmad Bradshaw and Carson Palmer for Arian Foster. Guy in my league had only Jason Campbell at QB and I'm stacked at RB. Trying to build for championship run. Foster's schedule looks much more favorable than AB's.

Give Tolbert & M. Williams (TB) for Montario Hardesty & Michael Crabtree. I have Hillis along with McCoy, DMC, BJGE & Jackie Battle.

10/18/2011 2:08:26 PM

If you are set at QB I think that first trade is a no brainer. I can't imagine that the other guy can't just pick-up a QB equal to Palmer off of waivers.

For the second trade, I would hold onto Tolbert and Williams. Tolbert could be valuable if Matthews gets hurt, and I haven't completely given up on Williams yet this season. Hardesty and Crabtree suck.

I need to pickup a QB for Brady's bye week. Should I get McCoy v Sea or Flacco @ Jac?
