Michael Bush and BenJarvus Green-Ellis?

I hope Michael Bush is a starter over McFadden.

Malcom Floyd (SD vs. Stl)
Mike Williams (TB vs. NO)
DeSean Jackson (PHI vs Atl)
Jabar Gaffney (DEN vs. NYJ)
Steve Smith (NYG vs. Det)


i have to start 2 WRs and then i have one flex spot. whoever doesnt start in the 2 WR's spots could start in the flex or i also have:

BenJarvis Green Ellis (NE vs Bal)
Marshawn Lynch (SEA vs. Chi)

After last weeks performance i'm definately starting Malcom Floyd. I would consider Floyd and Gates the only 2 reliable targets Rivers has got at the moment so i'd back him to put up decent numbers and score a TD

I also like Jabar Gaffney, the Jets pass D is nothing like it was last year and if Revis doesn't play then Cromartie will be occupied with Brandon Lloyd so Gaffney will be getting covered by Wilson or one of the other nickel corners and i can see him getting the better of whoever it is a few times. Add to that the Broncos will be throwing the ball all over the place again and you've got a good set of stats from most Broncos WRs

Flex is where the problems start, Desean Jackson could get a long TD and put up impressive stats but i think i would go with Lynch, the seahawks will want to get him in the game which will mean he's getting more touches than any of the WRs and he'll be more productive the Green-Ellis. Go with Lynch

Malcom Floyd and DeSean Jackson. Put Lynch in your flex. All reports are that they will pound Lynch a lot this game.

Good thing he racked up all those points before he went out. And to think he had 20 points half way through the 1st. Oh how I wished he played the whole game.

Got a few players with some Ravens ties I'm forced to start this week. All three of these guys are flex options, need to start one:

Fred Jackson, RB vs us
Steve Johnson, WR vs us
Louis Murphy, WR vs Den, as it stands now, with Kyle Boller throwing to him

one note is that the Bills are reportedly working F-Jax more heavily into the game plan against us this week.
Thanks.

When its close like that go with Fred Jackson and the guaranteed touches.

yeah go Fred Jackson, obviously we are all hoping for a big ravens win but jackson will still get quite a few touches.

he's the most reliable guy from the 3 you mentioned

ok since Peyton Manning on the bye week, i gotta pick up a QB off the waiver wire. who would help me out the most? i guess this may be a dumb question considering Flacco is there against the bills but idk.

Flacco vs BUF
Ben Roethlisberger vs. MIA
Matt Hasselback vs ARI
Carson Palmer vs. ATL
Matt Ryan vs. CIN
Kevin Kolb vs TEN

Flacco vs BUF - Decent Pass Defense, ranked last in the run. Could be a run fest on our part (should be)
Ben Roethlisberger vs. MIA
Matt Hasselback vs ARI
Carson Palmer vs. ATL - Bad and on the road. No
Matt Ryan vs. CIN - Decent pass defense
Kevin Kolb vs TEN - Can get to the QB, Could make Kolb force some throws.

I like Big Ben against Miami (but I don't actually like Big Ben). Kevin Kolb and Matt Ryan a close second.

EDIT - just seen Pu say they are last against the run. didn't know that probably will be running all over the place then

also Lesean McCoy @ Titans or Michael Turner Vs Bengals in PPR league

I still like Flacco against the Bills. I'm starting him in one of my leagues. He has the potential for multiple TDs, I just don't see much coming in ways of yardage.

That's an interesting situation. I'd go with McCoy in the ppr league. Titans can bring pressure on the QB, McCoy might see a lot of dump offs. But when you bench a stud like M Turner is classified, he'll probably go off on your bench.

I'm not sure who to start as my WR2 out of these sorry groups.

Standard league:

[b]Danario Alexander[/b](vs. TB), [b]Anthony Armstrong[/b](vs. CHI), [b]James Jones[/b](vs. MIN), [b]Harry Douglas[/b](vs. CIN), [b]Deon Butler[/b](vs. ARI), [b]Devery Henderson[/b](vs. CLE)

PPR league:

[b]Anthony Armstrong[/b](vs. CHI), [b]Devery Henderson[/b](vs.CLE), [b]Lee Evans[/b](vs.BAL), [b]Brian Hartline[/b](vs. PIT)

I am liking Danario Alexander but need to see it two weeks in a row first. I'd go with Anthony Armstrong as he is officially the starter opposite Moss. And in a non ppr league, he could catch a deep ball for a TD. You know they'll attempt it a couple times a game. Butler is also an option.

Actually I think I would go Armstrong in both leagues. As he is getting increased targets each week.

Man that's a tough one. Great problem to have though. I'm first going to say, don't bench your studs. M Turner needs to get played. So that eliminates one guy. Then I would go with McCoy with the idea that Titans will pressure Kolb and McCoy could be the beneficiary of a lot of dump offs. For your flex I would go with Hillis. I defintely would leave Lynch out of that mix. I like Charles, just don't like the time share and Jags were pretty decent in stopping CJ last week (not counting his stat padding at the end).

And I would keep starting Miles Austin and Wes Welker.

Actually bump Hillis for Charles. Hillis is banged up and the Browns should fall behind the Saints. Charles should get a good amount of carries.

Willis, Fred Jackson, or Cadilac (StL)?

I'd go with the Cadilac out of your choices. Who knows exactly how much playtime he'll see, and I just can't see Jackson outperforming Cadilac this week.

that's who I picked up, but the other two are on waivers (it's only a ten team league and I have 3 RBs on byes) Hopefully Jackson is still there after Sunday so I can drop Caddy for him, but we'll see... gut still tells me Willis gets in the endzone, but I'll take the guaranteed touches to be safe

Normally I'd agree with picking up Willis, but he just hasn't been getting those red zone touches thus far this year.

That's a tough one. Like ATD said Willis is out.

I keep going back and forth on this one. I originally typed up something about going with Fred Jackson but I scratched that. I'd go Caddy. Both guys will probably get around 10-12 carries. And probably around 3 catches. So the tie breaker goes to the matchup. Caddy has the better matchup.

The chargers have only allowed one deep ball thrown on them all year. And with assuming the Bills should be behind this game and forced to throw. I'm going with Steve Johnson.
