^^ The question is asinine in theory and even dumber in reality. You have a player you definitely plan to plan, Bryce Brown. The slot he fills on your team is immaterial, as points are points. By sticking him in the RB slot, you give yourself the option of playing any available RB/WR/TE in the Flex slot, while also netting three more days to make your decision. By sticking him in the Flex slot, you force yourself into playing another RB, no matter if the surefire starter you planned to play inthat RB slot gets arrested or dies between now and Sunday. Its a tough choice for sure, and I hope you struggle with it mightily between now and tonight's kickoff. 12/13/2012 1:51:08 PM |

My fantasy playoffs started a week early, so I'm in the championship this week. Needing some good news on Roddy White and RG3 injury reports. 12/13/2012 4:37:17 PM |

Here is my lineup issue. I need to fill one flex spot between these candidates.
Owen Daniels Michael Crabtree David Wilson Michael Turner
I've had good success running two TE (My starter is Heath Miller). but the last two weeks i've started Crabtree who has netted me 10+ each week. I'm not really considering Turner, but he is an option. David Wilson is the mystery here. If Bradshaw doesn't go I think he would have to be a must start, especially against the Falcons spotty D. What do you guys think? go with the safe 8-10 points from Crabtree or Daniels or play the wildcard Wilson? 12/13/2012 4:43:15 PM |

RB D. Wilson @ ATL Ridley SF D. Martin @ NO
WR C. Johnson @AZ D. Alexander CAR Maclin CIN Nicks @ATL
Need 2 WR, 2 RB, and 1 Flex. Right now it looks like Maclin's playing, so I have Nicks and Ridley sitting. Would anyone do any different?
I've also got Brady and my opponent has the SF defense. Russell Wilson is available against the Bills. I know it sounds idiotic, but would anyone pick him up to play instead? 12/13/2012 5:22:51 PM |

I think your starters that you have are the right choice, including brady.
what defense should I roll with this week? Cincinnati vs. Eagles (tonight @8:20) Miami vs. Jaguars
Right now I have cincinnati in, but idk because jacksonville is horrible. 12/13/2012 7:27:20 PM |

Jeepin4x4:
I would probably roll with daniels. I don't trust that wilson won't go all fumbly mcgee if given an increased workload and end up being benched. again. The 49ers could have a hard time running on the patriots, which would limit play action, where SF is very effective. Shaub loves Daniels and they are playing at home a week after getting embarrassed on national tv, I like that matchup.

In my flex spot in a PPR league:
Brandon Lloyd vs SF or Ryan Mathews vs Carolina
I'm leaning toward Lloyd just because his upside seems better. Mathews has been consistently average or worse. On the other hand, if Lloyd doesn't get his 15-20 pts, he ends up with 2-3 pts. So that's why I'm going back and forth.

^^^ I see no reason NOT to start Rodgers.

Wells
Sproles. Ridley loses too many carries to Vereen.
Start 1 at TE and 2 at Flex
Witten vs PIT Graham vs TB D. Alexander vs CAR R. Bush vs JAX G. Jennings vs CHI R. Mathews vs CAR

Brandon Lloyd very rarely gets looks from Brady, even in their 49 point blowout over the Bills or w/e he got like 2 points. Last week was an exception, and they're going against a good secondary in SF. I ended up dropping him from my team.
Carolina is ranked poorly against the run, and Rivers has a new WR to help take the pressure off of the run. I'd say give Mathews a shot. 12/16/2012 12:58:55 PM |

i am comfortably ahead 80 points with each of us having 3 people still playing right now. my opponent also still has the patriots defense yet to play, so unless they score like 5 touchdowns while holding SF scoreless, i think i'm in the clear and on my way to the finals. 12/16/2012 7:01:22 PM |
