"ppr league, 1 rb, 1 rb/wr, 2 wr/te 12 teams, 7 starters, 3 bench my rb's are westbrook and pierre thomas. some guy dropped ray rice, should i pick him up over thomas or wait to see to see thomas this weekend and how the mcgahee/rice split continues to go?"

9/26/2009 7:44:38 PM

^ yes. thomas and rice have similar roles on the team but NO has way more weapons than BAL so Rice should have more rushing and receiving yards. If you can get him in the lineup tomorrow he should do well against Cleveland.

question:

i proposed a trade to a guy lacking at WR (i could use some RB help) where I give him Julius Jones and Eddie Royal, and he gives me Steve Slaton...I am in 4th place at 1-1 with the highest point total...he is in 1st at 2-0...he accepted the trade, but my commish calls me up (he's a fucking dictator) and is like "im gonna ask the rest of the league and if half the people dont like it i'll veto it)...in one sense i think thats fair, but in another i'm like wtf, i chose to propose it, dude chose to accept it, and i dont think its really unbalanced

thoughts?

9/27/2009 1:01:59 AM

Manningham or Henderson?

9/27/2009 8:54:26 AM

R. Grant @ Stl

Or

Matt "bust". Forte @ Sea

leaning towards Grant and Rice is my other starter. Ppr league.

9/27/2009 8:54:52 AM

Pick 3:
Manningham vs TB
Vincent Jackson vs Miami
Crayton vs Carolina
Coles vs Pitt
Evans vs NO

Pick 2:
Brown vs SD
Jackson vs GB
Moreno vs Oak (assuming he is active)

9/27/2009 9:14:52 AM

^^ did ya see what Gore did to Seattle last week?

if Forte can break one early, that'll finally shake off the cobwebs and he'll go bananas the rest of the game.

Lovie already said they are still a running team, even with Cutler, and they would still feed Forte until he breaks loose

I side with your commish. Slaton still has RB1-2 potential and Jones & Royal don't rank in the top 50. Maybe your leaguemates won't care though.

9/27/2009 9:46:17 AM

I'm starting Johnny Knox!!!!!!!!!!!

Cutler's #1 target AND just got named the primary kickoff returner

prediction: 6 rec for 95 yards and 1TD....130 return yards

9/27/2009 11:11:02 AM

benson and LJ all the way


^^^^I agree... I have him on my team, and while he has been a disappointment thus far (for a first pick at least), that will change, and I think playing the seahawks will give him a helluva chance to go off. Hell, he and steve jackson (1st pick in my other money league) have both been "busts"- i say that because they haven't had a crazy game, but they have both gotten me about ~10+ pts each week. With marion barber as my 2nd RB, I'm gonna need something special to happen (I didn't get anyone special for my 3rd running back because lindell turned out to suck without his tequila)

Pick 1:

Eli
Matt Ryan

9/27/2009 11:13:55 AM

anyone think K. Moreno will play? doesn't kick off till 4 pm, so i dont feel comfortable putting him in

9/27/2009 11:15:33 AM

^^I dunno how eli has been playing, but Ryan is my QB and he is emerging as a prime-time stud.

I'm still guarded about starting Forte. I can't take another day of just 4-7 points. That's garbage.

[Edited on September 27, 2009 at 11:18 AM. Reason : ^]

9/27/2009 11:17:51 AM

if Forte doesn't get you double digits, i'll jump off my back deck

9/27/2009 11:22:29 AM

Eli has actually been looking pretty good because he has soooo many targets and doesn't have a favorite. He is also playing against TB which is a shit team for secondary (except for Rhanday (sp?))


But yeah, I've been starting Matt Ryan, and they have both been getting almost exactly the same pts each week- I have roddy white starting which makes me want to start Ryan for the double pts, but Eli is very tempting- for the first time, even yahoo is predicting him to have more points

^^forte is really my best option right now... I just picked up kevin faulk to be my number 2 in one league, and larry johnson and julius jones to chose from in the other league- oh, and Hightower (who I'm starting) and Steven jackson... I got a stacked stable in that league- i wish I could transfer them over

any word on if moss is playing today? and what's the latest on barber?

9/27/2009 11:25:28 AM

Barber is not gonna play tomorrow


fucks me because he has been the best back of 2 weeks that i have, and I have him in both my money leagues

9/27/2009 11:27:26 AM

Rhanday

9/27/2009 11:28:40 AM

With Westbrook iffy to play...

W. Parker vs. Cincy

or

C. Benson vs. Pitt

Benson has played well all year, but Pitt has a top 5 run D. Bengals D isn't anything special but Parker has struggled all year behind a OL that has been playing bad so far this year.

9/27/2009 11:30:00 AM

half of all my players are listed as questionable this week

9/27/2009 11:32:16 AM

I need this answered immediately!


Warner at home versus a very banged-up Colts defense, missing Sanders/Hayden/Brackett

or

Ryan at Gillette versus a shaky Pats defense

9/27/2009 11:45:58 AM

moss active, welker not

bowe, westbrook, mcnabb inactive

Here is an interesting question.

I hate to even THINK about doing this, but my RBs are:

Sproles (no brainer with LT out again in a league where return yards count).
Brown
Turner

Need to start 2. Now Turner SHOULD be a given, but Ronnie Brown is projected more against a banged up SD defense. With how productive he was against SD last year and was last week, I'm a bit torn.

Tell me how stupid I am and that Turner will get carries because of the weather and I should 100% start him.

9/27/2009 11:53:34 AM

pick 2 RB

Jon Stewart vs cowgirls
Cadillac vs. Giants
Jamal Lewis vs. Baltimore
Beanie Wells vs Indy
Lesean McCoy vs. KC

9/27/2009 11:53:39 AM

^^ start Turner. you'll lose if you don't


(BTW, you rookies need to learn the protocol. it's answer then ask)

9/27/2009 11:55:17 AM

well that makes McCoy a great trade and I will play him for sure

9/27/2009 11:57:26 AM

^^^ Lewis is out for the game. Wells likes to fumble the ball away. Dallas D has really stopped the run so far.

That leaves two: Williams and McCoy.

Williams was questionable so check to make sure he actually plays

9/27/2009 11:59:47 AM

ochocinco vs pitt or desean jackson vs kc? not ppr

9/27/2009 12:03:01 PM

i like desean against KC.

9/27/2009 12:04:23 PM

"if Forte doesn't get you double digits, i'll jump off my back deck"

gonna quote you on that and start Forte over Grant.

9/27/2009 12:06:28 PM

Pick 2:
Steve Smith (giants) @ TB
Devery Henderson @ buf
Brandon Marshall @ oak
Santana Moss @ Det
Ted Ginn @ SD

Right now I've got Smith and Henderson.

9/27/2009 12:06:54 PM

need a flex spot reccomendation

Mike Bush vs DEN
Braylon Edwards vs BAL
Chris Henry vs PITT
Earl Bennett vs SEA

I really would like to play braylon, but I have no faith in him finding the endzone.

9/27/2009 12:06:59 PM

maybe his back deck is 6 inches off the ground

9/27/2009 12:07:13 PM

im sitting desean jackson

ive got michael turner, felix jones, hightower, and lesean mccoy(also barber and beanie wells but im not considering them)....so which one those final three?

9/27/2009 12:08:31 PM

^ definitely turner

[Edited on September 27, 2009 at 12:10 PM. Reason : a]

9/27/2009 12:09:22 PM

^^^ nah, at least twelve feet. I'll push him off if he doesn't. Don't worry.

So...

Turner over Brown obviously? Even though Brown has had past success against SD and had a great week last week.

[Edited on September 27, 2009 at 12:10 PM. Reason : x]

9/27/2009 12:10:17 PM

^ SD is gonna put up alot of points and Miami will have to throw to catch up. ATL should keep up with NE in scoring.

9/27/2009 12:11:16 PM

Turner seems like the obvious choice. how could you not start him? doesn't he get most of the carries on that team, while brown shares time?

bw, I hate having to decide between three good players based on the other team's defense. it kinda comes out to be a crapshoot in that situation.

9/27/2009 12:13:23 PM

i guess i am starting donald brown at RB2 (injuries :mad .

choice, lynell hamilton, james davis, buckhalter all other options on free agents.

That what you guys would do?

9/27/2009 12:22:06 PM

Start Turner no questions.

Ok i've been pretty shitty and my best WR just went out so I need some help

out of these I need two WR and one WR/RB

Knowshon
Braylon Edwards
J Stu
Bernard Berrian
Kevin Walter (he is active today)
Ted Ginn
Chester Taylor
Donald Brown

9/27/2009 12:24:34 PM

^^ start brown but buckhalter could be a good choice if Knowshon isn't 100%

[Edited on September 27, 2009 at 12:25 PM. Reason : (.)(.)]

9/27/2009 12:25:21 PM

im starting turner but i need ONE of felix jones, tim hightower, or lesean mccoy

9/27/2009 12:25:25 PM

Moss is ACTIVE per espn

9/27/2009 12:25:48 PM

^^i'll go on a limb and say mccoy, westbrook is out so who else is gonna get the carries

9/27/2009 12:26:54 PM

^^^ use felix. With barber out its going to be his game and Dallas O-line has really opened up the run. And I can see DAL put up points on the board early and run it the rest of the time.

[Edited on September 27, 2009 at 12:28 PM. Reason : a]

9/27/2009 12:28:00 PM

9/27/2009 12:44:33 PM

So all of my QBs are hurt in a league. I picked up this Edelman guy, and he can be used in the QB slot for some reason. It's either that, or pick up Delhomme or Leftwich.
