Pick 3 Wr’s
1. Desean Jackson
2. Eddie Royal
3. Donnie Avery
4. Marvin Harrison
and how about mcgahee vs the browns this week
Also 1 more thing.. Jeff garcia or Aaron rodgers this week?
Both Garcia and Rodgers have tough matchups this week (the KC pass defense is actually pretty good), so I’d go with the better player, Rodgers.
I don’t really like McGahee this week. The Browns are playing good defense of late. Who are your other options?
WRs – I think I’d go with Jackson, Royal and Avery. They all have great matchups while Marvin’s matchup is mediocre, and he’s been inconsistent.
Aaron Rodgers or Donovan McNabb?
I would go with McNabb. He has the better matchup.
Hi John,
SHould I start Matt Schwab or Kyle Orton this week? Chicago plays Detroit and Houston plays Min.
I’d start Orton due to the better matchup.
I have gore but hes on a bye week, theres cedric benson, Tim hightower, M. moore, thats really about it..
I’d start Moore if Parker misses another week, but McGahee is an okay start if Parker comes back.
Is Kolby Smith worth picking up for any of these guys (Ginn, Torain, A.Bryant, M.Pittman)? Also, whats your outlook on Torain? Worth keeping or will it take too long for him to develop into a fantasy starter?
Until we know more about the condition of Michael Pittman, I’d probably hold onto Torain. It’s hard to put any stock in a Shanahan fantasy RB, however.
Re: Kolby, I guess it depends on how badly you’re hurting at RB right now. He’s going to start for the next 3-4 weeks, so if you need a starter, he’s your guy. As for who to cut, it would depend on where the strength of your roster is. Torain is more of a gamble at RB.
I was reading on another site that tim hightower is going to become the feature back at least 20 carries a game. Is there any truth to that?
Peyton Manning vs. NE or
Kyle Orton vs. DET
Hi John- Need alittle help, must win week.
need 3 of the following backs
-Kevin Faulk
-Ray Rice
-Darren McFadden
-Dominic Rhodes
-Corell Buckhalter
and 2 of the following wide outs
- Devin Hester
-Nate Washington
-Ted Ginn Jr.
any advice would be helpful and greatly appreciated
-Michael Jenkins (atl)
Dennis – Your question inspired me to write this post about the ARI RB situation.

-in-arizona/
Travis – The matchup with DET is too tantalizing to pass up. I’d go with Orton unless the winds in Chicago get higher than 20 mph.
Sidney – I’d go with Faulk, Rhodes and….Rice? McFadden is likely out, but if he somehow plays, you could start him. I don’t think Buckhalter has much value with Westy in the lineup.
At WR, I’d go with Hester and Ginn. S. Holmes is back in PIT.
Hello again.I am 3-5 and hurting badly in a very competitive 12 team league.So I appreciate your open post format and support.Now to get to the biz!
thanks in advance.
a 1ppr league
we play 2wr,2rb,1qb,1te,k,def
here is my roster:Week 9
A “s” is who im starting week 9.

Plaxico Burress….VS…DAL/s
Bernard Berrian….VS…HOU/s
Warrick Dunn….VS…KC/s
Mewelde Moore….VS…WAS/s
Marcedes Lewis….VS…CIN/s
Kevin Curtis….VS…SEA
LaDainian Tomlinson/BYE
Jeremy Shockey/BYE

Marvin Harrison….VS…NE

Who would you start?
I recently dropped LJ for Torain.And as you see im hurting at RB.I’m gona drop M.Lewis after this week’s bye with shockey.So ill have that spot for a pickup. but, im also debating cutting harrison for leon washington This week and starting Washington with Dunn.id like to wait on harrison cause i think indy will come on strong. but, i dont know who to cut if any for a 2nd rb.I’d love to start moore but parker is back.
i’m currently starting moore and dunn.Dunn mostly for the matchup vs kc.I’d like to keep moore cause even if parker is back i suspect him splitting time. but, i cant gamble this week due to my 3-5 start.So cutting him or starting him is hard.but,im currently forced to start him.
Any advice?
Thanks again
this is the top 20 or so available rb’s in my league.i figured such a list would only aid your advice.
Dominic Rhodes,Edgerrin James,Leon Washington,Derrick Ward,Jerious Norwood,Fred Jackson,Felix Jones,chris perry,ray rice,brandon jackson,rudi johnson,patrick cobbs,leonard weaver,michael bush,jamaal charles,ahman green,selvin young,tj ducket,mike tolbert,ahmad bradshaw,greg jones,jerome harrison and ladell betts
ill shorten my posts in the future but now you are up to speed with me.
thanks again
Warrick Dunn missed practice today and it’s not looking good for Sunday.
Washington would be okay, but I think D. Ward is the best of the players you listed assuming Addai plays, which it looks like he will.
I think you can probably cut Curtis since you have Muhammad and Harrison on the bench going forward. I’d cut Curtis for Ward. I guess Washington would be my second choice. Edge would be my third.
Hi john
I was offered a trade. I have larry fitz as pri receiver and need another good one. i also have forte, jacobs, s jackson, e graham and julius jones. i was offered a boldin (wr) for jacobs. the guy also has s. moss and r white. should i try for one of those instead? thanks in advance
Start either Farve or Rodgers? (both tough matchups)
Im starting A. Peterson but I have to use a RB in my flex spot because im hurting on byes at WR. So pick two please.
Justin Fargas
Kolby Smith
Willie Parker
just wondering if i made the right move…
i traded: c. portis and t. owens
i received: a. boldin, h. ward, l. tomlinson
and who would you start this week at QB? favre or campbell?
Stewart – I think R. White is a little more dependable, but getting Boldin for Jacobs would be a good deal for you. It’s tough to let Jacobs go before S-Jax is back, however. Who are your other WRs?
Steve – I think I’d go with Favre. He seems to put up pretty good fantasy numbers even when he plays bad. I’m worried about the TEN DT vs. Rodgers.
I’d go with Fargas and FWP at RB. Fargas has a nice matchup and while I think Moore will eat into Parker’s carries, he’s probably a better start than Kolby.
TheOne – That’s a fair trade.
I’d start Favre – mediocre matchup. Campbell has a tough one.
help with marc bulger or matt ryan?
Should I starts O.Daniels or T.Scheffler? Who has more upside?
I have Pitt’s D, should I pick up Min’s D instead? Who has more upside this week?
K, D.Akers or M.Bryant (TB)? I know it is a crabshoot, but who has more upside?
Bench, I have L.Moore, should I pick up M.Harrison instead?
Bulger has the better matchup, but Ryan has been better this season, so I’d go with him against a mediocre OAK secondary.

Hi John,
Which of the following WR would you keep going forward:
Santanoi Holmes
Lance Moore
Eddie Royal
I need to drop one of them for next week for TE? Any help you can provide would be great!
Bob – Daniels is healthy and playing great. Scheffler is questionable and missing parts of practice. Go with Daniels.
Neither PIT nor MIN has a particularly good matchup this week, but I think PIT has the better defense overall.
Matt Bryant has been strong all season. I’d go with him.
I guess we’re getting to that point where we’re debating between Harrison and Moore going forward. For me, Marvin is the better WR. Moore is worth having, but I wonder how much action he’ll get once Reggie Bush comes back. Conversely, you have to think that the Indy offense will get on track. With Reggie Wayne hobbled, I think Marvin is the better fantasy WR to have.
Raj – I think Royal and Holmes are the two best on that list, but wait until next week to make that decision.
In week 9, McNabb or P. Manning?
Hey,
Should I start Willie Parker or Willis McGahee (assuming he plays tomorrow)?
Thanks
Should I start Ryan Grant or Ricky Williams along forte and should i start ted ginn over devin hester to go along with matt jones and Kevin Walter
Should I start Heath Miller or Mercedes Lewis
Santonio Holmes of Dwayne Bowe
Tony Scheffler or David Martin this week? No points per rec.
Also who do you think is the better play at rb. Ronnie Brown or Jamal Lewis? thanks.
Week 9, Bernard Berrian or Plaxico Burress?
I need 2 of the following recievers to start
Kevin Walter
Devin Hester
Ted Ginn
All right, a lot of questions to get to, so let’s get right to it…
JayBry – McNabb has an easier matchup, though both guys are good plays.
Shaun – I’m expecting Parker to split time while McGahee should be The Man if he does play (and I think he probably will).
Dan O – Grant should get a lot more work than Ricky, so despite the bad matchup with TEN, I’d go with Grant. Hester/Ginn is very close, so I’d recommend the guy that is hot now (Ginn) over the guy coming off an injury (Hester). Heath Miller looks like the better start, but it’s close. Bowe has been much more dependable than Holmes, so I’d go with Dwayne.
Big Snizz – Scheffler if he plays, but he’s questionable, so be ready to put Martin in once the inactives are announced. Ronnie Brown is a much better play on paper since Jamal faces a very tough Baltimore defense. Denver is far worse against the run. Go with Brown. There’s a lot of drama going on with Burress in NY – this could be good or bad for his chances. I think Berrian is probably more dependable, but Burress has more upside. I’d go with Plax if you are in a TD-heavy (non-PPR) league.
thanks.here’s a good one for week 9.Steve breaston or marvin harrison. no ppr league.
I need some help guys…Kerry Collins or Gus Frerotte? Please help as I need some serious help at QB…
I’d go with Marvin. It looks like Wayne may not play, so either way Harrison should get plenty of work.
I need two wrs out of these three to start should i go with kevin walter ted ginn devin hester 2 of those three
Walter and Ginn, I think.
Who should I pick up at TE, and who should I drop after seeing tonights games?
Here are my 3 WR again:
1) Santanio Holmes
2) Eddie Royal
3) Lance Moore
Here are some available TEs:
1)Jermey Shockey
2)Heath Miller
3)Bo Scaife
4)Kevin Boss
5)Zach Miller
I guess we can see what happens tonight to give me the answer.
Thanks, Raj I lost really bad this week 25 to 58.
I think Moore is the guy to drop considering the way Holmes and Royal played this week.
As for a pickup, if Shockey is practicing all week, he’s your best bet. Miller got injured last night, so the next guy I’d pick up is probably Scaife, though it seems like Boss is finally turning the corner (more upside?). PPR league, go with Scaife. Non-PPR, maybe Boss is the better option.
