Any advise on my Wideouts? I am starting these 2 obviously...
R. Moss
D. Driver

I need one more from these three
L. Fitzgerald
M. Robinson
C. Rodgers (Det)

I am leaning towards Fitzgerald because they are playing NYG, but Culpepper is going to spread the ball around, and someone has to catch it.

9/11/2005 11:20:18 AM

Fitz is a safe pick, gonna get a lot of looks, Robinson will get some looks but they have so much distribution you never know who will get the TD's.

McNabb or Bulger?

Mason or Kennison?

I have a couple of games with auto-drafts, and I am stuck with Jet's D in both of them, so I had to get rid of them, I can't have them going against KC at KC. So I was looking at Denver, Cincy, or Stl. All of the best D's are going up against good O's this week so it's a pretty rough week.

Julius Jones

or

Stephen Jackson

(2nd back)

9/11/2005 12:07:36 PM

WR A. Boldin (Ari - WR)
WR S. Smith (Car - WR)
RB J. Lewis (Bal - RB)
RB B. Westbrook (Phi - RB)

9/11/2005 12:18:44 PM

lewis is supposedly sharing mad carries today with taylor

9/11/2005 12:24:13 PM

but will you realy take j. lewis out of your lineup?

i woudlnt

9/11/2005 12:24:45 PM

So then.

Domanick Davis (RB vs. Buffalo)

or

TJ Houshmandzadeh (WR vs. Cleveland)

9/11/2005 12:24:46 PM

davis all the way and can anyone for cleveland cincy even get the ball to housh? (same reason i look down on muhammed this year with chicago)

my bad...i would still go with davis....by the end of the year housh may be a great guy to have, but i would go with a top tier rb until palmer gets into a groove

[Edited on September 11, 2005 at 12:32 PM. Reason : /]

9/11/2005 12:26:46 PM

vs. Cleveland. He plays for the Bengals, and will have Palmer trying to throw the ball to him.

9/11/2005 12:28:52 PM

Rolling the dice and going with the Housh. Nothing like starting my 16th round pick instead of my 2nd rounder.

9/11/2005 12:56:33 PM

riiiiisky

starting bennett is gonna kill me today...he hasn't even been in the game yet

[Edited on September 11, 2005 at 1:21 PM. Reason : /]

9/11/2005 1:01:55 PM

So far...

The Housh 1 point
Davis -2 points

9/11/2005 1:57:32 PM

Anybody else having trouble getting onto espns fantasy football site? The page will not load for me.

9/11/2005 2:36:49 PM

panthers d is killin me

9/11/2005 3:00:17 PM

I'm fucked for the day. ESPN won't let me drop a player off my bench if they've already started their game for the week, so I'm still stuck with Eli as my only QB.

And I was too late to get Gates replaced as my TE for the day too, so that's an automatic zero for one of my starters.

9/11/2005 3:33:44 PM

Vindication.

TJ Houshmandzadeh 7 fantasy points
Domanick Davis 2 fantasy points

9/11/2005 4:21:06 PM

i love larry johnson and the tampa bay defense.

9/11/2005 4:22:25 PM

Man I wish I got Carnell Williams

9/11/2005 4:28:29 PM

steve smith was my shining star for the first half of the day...bennett killed me though and mcnabb blew and the panthers defense was worse

9/11/2005 4:32:21 PM

Kevin Jones is off to a good start

9/11/2005 4:33:27 PM

good thing i started caddy in the rb/wr spot

my fox sports league wont let me add willy parker for some reason, it says transactions are closed

in my main league i just dropped gaffney and got brandon jacobs

9/11/2005 4:59:18 PM

I had a feeling Willie Parker and LJ would have good games, bah, oh well, LT scored and now I have to hope Julius scores too, haha.

9/11/2005 11:45:15 PM

yeah I must say I am not thrilled that the guy I played today was loaded with 4 colts starters - including their defense...

9/11/2005 11:55:43 PM

I feel pretty good about starting Willie Parker over Domanick Davis and Deion Branch over Drew Bennett right now.


I mean I could have started Cadillac over Lamont Jordan I guess, but my team won by 60 so that might have been overkill.

9/12/2005 4:25:31 AM

yeah i knew parker would have a huge game. i started him and alexander and sat cadillac. i never would have sat alexander in favor of cadillac, but i'm kinda wishing i had now lol. i'm gonna win my game anyway though.

9/12/2005 8:32:05 AM

By the way anyone who drafted Culpepper in round 1 or 2 this year has made an excrutiating mistake.


He is a turnover princess and now he doesnt even have Moss to pump his stats.


Why on earth you'd take a QB early this year when there were like 15+ viable starters was beyond me anyway

9/12/2005 9:48:54 AM

hehe

culpepper was my first pick #7.... that hurt yesterday

I had him last year and he gave me about 18 points per game... thats why i picked him again....

9/12/2005 9:55:34 AM

i took culpepper with the number 10 or 11 pick and i don't feel bad about it...all of the premium running backs had been sucked up by then anyway. i got jamal lewis and brian westbrook there anyway, but i got hammered this week...the guy i was up against had the most points of anyone.

he had K. Collins, T. Holt, J. Horn, M. Muhammad, P. Holmes, T. Barber, J. Shockey, K. Barlow, R. Longwell, and Tampa Bay

jamal lewis and m. bennett were out there on one leg and carolina's defense sucked a big one too...

9/12/2005 10:15:21 AM

javon walker, my number one WR in one of the two TWW leagues

out for the season

9/12/2005 10:17:59 AM

I should've kept Larry Johnson.

I thought Mike Anderson had more upside.

9/12/2005 12:25:52 PM

well it looks like my panthers D just took a assload of a hit

9/12/2005 1:32:49 PM

well it looks like my panthrs D just took a assload of a hit

and boy i sure got lucky playing against indianapolis' defense this week, boy they sure sucked

9/12/2005 1:33:57 PM

Falcons D led me to the win last night!

he was just arrested...i don't know if it will affect playing time...but he was arrested...

Maybe that bastard won't steal all of Priest's carries next week.

9/13/2005 6:10:00 PM

So I don't know who to start next week at QB - Favre vs Cleveland or Hassleback vs Atlanta.

I want to pick up a scrub QB for one week because I can't really trust either of those guys to produce, but the best QB available right now is Trent Dilfer.

Fuck, now I don't know what to do. I was planning to pick him back up from free agency, but now...

9/13/2005 6:43:18 PM

so who thinks Ben will put up some points again next week?

gg me for dropping him 2hrs before the game on week one

9/13/2005 8:22:01 PM

what the hell kind of league are you in that larry johnson is a free agent?

9/13/2005 8:23:16 PM

fuel, go with kyle orton, he is due!!!

9/13/2005 8:31:30 PM

I'm thinkin about picking up Anthony Wright, because he is playing the Titans.

9/13/2005 8:40:31 PM

Woohoo, benched Vick for Leftwich Sunday morning, haha, turned out to be a good move.

9/13/2005 8:43:44 PM

Why would anyone draft Vick as their starting fantasy QB?

9/13/2005 8:44:22 PM

^ Because he's one of the top 10 fantasy QB's??

Now why anyone would take him in the 4th round is beyond me.

I mean I waited until the 8th round and got Bulger.

If you play in a normal scoring league and took any QB that wasn't named Peyton Manning in the first three rounds you screwed up.


And just to brag my team put up 30 more points than any other team in my league last week thanks to Bulger, Dillon, Parker, Branch, Pitt D, and Wilkins...

[Edited on September 14, 2005 at 2:58 AM. Reason : a]

9/14/2005 2:48:45 AM

Favre Palmer or Bulger

who do i start this week

9/14/2005 3:18:13 AM

^^Vick was not one of the top-10 fantasy QB's last year, and its not likely that he will be this year either. He is good at winning games, but his stats are shitty for fantasy fb scoring.

Yahoo ffb had him as the 13th highest scoring QB last year. Judging from last night, I don't see that changing for the better this year.

9/14/2005 4:03:53 AM

^ ESPN had him ranked #12 best QB last year.


Allow me to point out that he did not play the final two games of the regular season, so in Weeks 1-15 he was ranked a top ten QB.

He can not help the fact that he is so good that his team locked up the #2 seed with two weeks remaining.

If as a fantasy owner you knew Vick was not going to play going into the games you would not start him. Therefore it is fair to add the points of the player you replaced Vick with to his total when thinking in terms of fantasy.

Had Vick left two games in the middle due to injury, then no compensation would be given.

9/14/2005 12:47:42 PM

excuses, excuses. He won't finish in the top 10 this year either, because he doesn't put up good stats. There is really no reason to have Vick as a starting QB in a fantasy league unless it is very big or has multiple starting QB's.
