Figured since we seem to be all over the place with our start/sit questions, I'd start an 'official' thread to post our questions in.

PPR flex start:
Eric Decker, Benson, DeAngelo WIlliams, Jonathan Stewart, Nate Washington or Marshawn Lynch.

I'm leaning to Decker since its a ppr league. He will see a ton of snaps for at least this week. But I have so much junk compiled when it comes to back-up running backs.
(Thanks Mod)

How many targets/catches does Decker have so far?

How many targets/catches does Decker have so far?

14 Targets (9 came in Game 2) with 8 catches

He has 3 less targets than Roddy White and is tied with Jimmy Graham (both of whom are on my team).

Yeah, that's the way to go.

already asked Pu this,

RB's
Pick 2 (pick 3 if your gonna pick wells)
Jahvid Best
Lagarrate Blount
Beanie Wells
Peyton Hillis
Chris Johnson

[bauer77]

I already posted this in my other thread, didn't see this one at first.

Injury help with me:
Beanie Wells (hamstring) could be less effective this week
Peyton Hillis (illness) probably will start/play but who knows how much?

Should i put Fred Jackson in for either one of these guys? Or possibly pick up someone? (Mike Tolbert, James Starks, Ben Tate, or Benjarvis Green-Ellis are some RBs available)

Put Jackson in for 1 of them
Starks and/or Tate are good pick ups depending who (on your whole team) is on your bench

Starks: Starter in GB
Tate: Feature back while Foster is out, will probably be sharing carries with Foster with the way he's been playing lately.

I sent you a PM, but I'm ranking these guys again in order for me. I just don't like Wells at anything less than 100%. He's like night and day. I do have faith that CJ performs. McFadden lit the Broncos up running to the outside. CJ can too. Its either now or never.

Jahvid Best (only if ppr league @ #1)
Chris Johnson
Peyton Hillis
LeGarrette Blount
Beanie Wells

You should definitely play Fred Jackson instead of Beanie. Freddie is playing lights out. Starks is pretty good, but he's still splitting too many carries right now. I really like Tate this week if Foster can't go. My hunch is, that Foster will be active (for emergency purposes only) and Tate will continue being the NFL rushing Attempts leader.

But I would probably go with with Jackson and Hillis unless Foster is ruled inactive.

I need help with
2nd HB
D. McFadden (He's been a beast for me but is against the jets this week) or F. Gore vs the Bengals

Pick 2 WR
S. Smith Panthers( not going to sit him anymore lol)
J. Maclin
S. Johnson
W. Welker

W/R
One not picked from the two groups that you think will perform well. Thinking I'm going to start three wr this week.

Stick with your studs. McFadden has elevated past Gore as a must start. Sure the Jets aren't the best to run on. But this will be the first home game in Oakland. The Jets have to travel West and they have shown areas of weaknesses. McFadden is going to get the ball and he should do enough to be at least serviceable.

Start Steve Smith (I think everybody has benched him the first two weeks, then they will all start him this week and he'll do nothing). But still start him, the matchup is great.

Maclin I love like usually. The Giants can bring the pressure. Which means shorter throws. Which means Maclin. And against a bad secondary of the Giants, I like Maclin.

I also love Stevie Johnson. The groin is an area of concern because it can really slow down a player. But the matchup is fantastic in what might be a shootout.

Never a problem to have depth at positions. Always a good problem to have

[D-Rey]

Thanks hopefully Brees, Rice, and Jets D put up enough points that it doesn't matter that much like they have been lol. Been averaging 125 points.

[theblackdog]

Qb: Flacco, Cam Newton
RB: Green-Ellis, Tate, Tomlinson
WR: M. Wallace, J. Nelson, D. Moore, D. Nelson, J. Knox
TE: T. Gonzalez, Dickson
K: Cundiff
DEF: Ravens, Saints

Some tough calls for me this week, especially in the WR position, so any advice?

[bauer77]

Not sure who i should go with at WR:
Roddy White vs TB or
Mike Wallace vs IND

I was gonna start Mike Wallace earlier in the week, but then i realized the steelers will probably be up early on the colts, and will start running the ball. Think i should go with Roddy?

I'd go Roddy. But I tend to have a fantasy biased against Wallace. Even though he constantly proves me wrong.I do think the Steelers rely upon their run game and just dismantle the Colts offense. But Wallace should be a beneficiary of at minimum one long TD catch.

I hate you CJ2K

Now is the time to start panicking on CJ.

My gut feeling was DEAD wrong.

Sorry about Best I really thought he was gonna have a good game, got torrey smith on my waiver... as does probably every1 else

Well Kevin Williams was back from his suspension. That will change the running game outlook. Best still had a decent game in the ppr format. He should've had that long TD pass but that one DB was able to chase him down with a great angle.

Torrey will probably be one of the biggest waiver wire claims this week.
