Hi John,
First and foremost, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU! You have made me win the last two games. Now I need help this week. Here is my roster, who should I play?
WR Steve Smith(CAR) vs TB
WR Santana Moss vs BAL
WR Lee Evans vs MIA
RB Steven Jackson vS ARI
RB Warrick Dunn VS CAR
WR Lance Moore VS ATL
PICK 3 WR
PICK 2 RB
Neil Rackers VS STL
Mason Crosby is a FREE AGENT
PICK 1 K
Dallas VS PIT
New England VS SEATTLE
PICK 1 DEFENSE
by the way i am not in a PPR league
This is not PPR :
Pick 2 RB’s
1. Steve Slaton
2. Peyton Hillis
3. Frank Gore
Pick 3 WR’s
1. Eddie Royal
2. Laveranues Coles
3. Hixon
4. Antonio Bryant
Thanx JP
Should I start Tyler Thigpen or Jay Cutler this week?
Raj – You’re welcome. That makes me feel better after steering Mike the wrong way last night. I hope he didn’t take my advice.
Anyway, you only listed two RBs – Dunn and Jackson – are those your only options?
At WR, you’ll definitely want to start Smith. The other two spots are a little tough, but going with matchups, Evans and Moss look like the right plays. ATL was great against the pass last week in SD. Starting Evans is a little dicey, but he has 12 catches over the last two weeks, so he’s (somewhat) safe.
At K, Rackers should be fine. He’s playing STL who gives up a ton of points and he’s kicking in a dome. Better not to mess with GB kickers in December.
On DT, are ARI or DEN available? I’d rather start those two defenses over the two you listed. I’d start ARI over DEN.
Dennis – Wow, nice situation to be in. I think I’m actually going to recommend that you start Slaton and Hillis. They both have great matchups while Gore’s is mediocre.
At WR, I would recommend Royal, Hixon and Coles. Bryant’s matchup with CAR is kind of tough.
Edgery – I’d definitely go with Cutler.
I am in a non-PPR league. Who do I choose between:
1. Marshawn Lynch and Peyton Hillis (planning to pick him up from the wire)
2. Greg Jennings and Randy Moss
3. Tony Gonzalez and Jason Witten
4. Steelers Defense and Ravens Defense
Pradeep – I would normally say go with your stud, but Hillis is on fire and has a great matchup with KC this week.
2. Jennings has been more reliable.
3. PIT has a tough D so I would go with Gonzo who has been more consistent of late.
4. Neither defense has a particularly good matchup, so I’d go with PIT because they have been playing well of late.
Actually I also have DeAngelo Williams.
So the three are:
RB Steven Jackson vS ARI
RB Warrick Dunn VS CAR
DeAngelo Williams
Hi Paul,
Available Defenses:
Seattle
Detroit
San Diego
Denver
Miami
Atlanta
St.Louis
Houstan
New Orleans
Philadelphia
I’d definitely start Williams. He has been on fire of late. Keep an eye on Jackson this week, if he’s practicing and it looks like he’s going to play, then you can start him. Otherwise, Dunn is a somewhat solid start, though CAR is pretty solid against the run.
In that case, I guess I’d start Dallas this week. Pickup Philly to start next week against CLE. I don’t really trust Denver in this situation, despite the great matchup.
You don’t need to hold onto the Pats if you can get Philly.
Buffola is also available.
first thanks for last week cause now im in the playoffs.now i need help dis week:
should i start mcnabb over thigpen and garcia
pick 3:hines ward, desean jackson,mason,tedd jinn, or antonio bryant
pick 3:westy,chris johnson, MJD, derrick ward, or moore
tampa bay or miami def
I’d go with the Dallas/Philly combo.
Alex – I’d go with McNabb again.
WR: DeSean, H. Ward & Mason
RB: Westy, CJ, MJD
DT: TB
Good luck!
Hi john. You have helped me out a lot the last 2 weeks but yet I need your help big time. I need this win to progress further. I am in a ppr league.
I have romo but he faces Pits. Should I play Thigpen?
Wr-choose 2
Steve Smith vs TB
Steve Breaston Vs STL
Hines Ward Vs Dallas
Issac Bruce vs NYJ
Running back. Choose 2
Thomas Jones-yah im playing him for sure
Steven Jackson vs Ariz
Ronnie Brown vs BUF
Flex spot. Choose someone from above Wr or RB.
Tight End
Dustin Kellar (im thinking hes the one)vs SF
Owen Daniels vs GB
Thanks a bunch your worth gold.
Survived! Playoff time – Nonppr
QB – Delhomme or Sage/Schaub
RB – LT, Lendale, Pierre (1 RB and 1 R/W)
WR – Boldin, Marshall, V Jack (2 WR)
Def – DAL or PHI or WAS or DEN
Possible waiver wire pickups for the stretch run
Bulger QB, J Jones RB, C Taylor RB, M Morris RB, B Jackson RB, T Holt WR, B Engram WR, M Clayton WR, A Toomer WR
Hello,
PPR League
Need to start Cutler on Manning at QB.
At RB I need to start either S. Jackson or P. Hillis.
At WR I need 2 of L. Moore, J. Cothcery, and A. Toomer.
Thanks!
Steven Jackson or Marshawn Lynch?
Would you drop Kevin Faulk and/or Jonathan Stewart for Tony S. (Bronco’s TE) ?
I have Owen Daniels, but they are playing against GB… Broncos is playing KC…
I have Brandon Marshall and J.Cotchery, should I start B.Berrian instead of Cotchery?
Also, is Justin Fargas a good start (for the W/R spot)?
I have Kevin Faulk and Jonathan Stewart on my bench (if I don’t drop one of them for Tony S.)
In our league, we get 1 point per 10 receiving yards, and 1 point per 15 rushing yards.
Starters as of Now
QB Aaron Rodgers, GB QB
RB Adrian Peterson, Min RB
RB Tim Hightower, Ari RB
RB/WR Peyton Hillis, Den RB P
WR Andre Johnson, Hou WR
WR Lance Moore, NO WR
TE Antonio Gates, SD TE
D/ST Giants D/ST, NYG D/ST
K Neil Rackers, Ari K

Bench Willie Parker, Pit RB P
Bench Brett Favre, NYJ QB
Bench Justin Fargas, Oak RB
Bench Derrick Mason, Bal WR P
Bench Ike Hilliard, TB WR P
Bench Mark Bradley, KC WR
Bench Bobby Engram, Sea WR
Big Week! …not PPR…Worried about Greenbay weather for Rodgers and Tim Hightower..Advice would be great.
All right, lots of questions…
Ryan – It’s tough to sit Romo down, but I think Thigpen is a better start this week. At WR, Smith and Ward are your most dependable options. At RB, TJ and S-Jax, unless it looks like Jackson is gimpy. At flex, I’d go with Ronnie Brown because you know he’s going to get some touches. At TE, Keller is a good call.
Thanks for the compliment. If you want to repay me, spread the word about this site to your friends.
Mike – Jake has been pretty spotty and has an awful matchup this week. I’d go with the HOU QB. At RB, go with LT. At WR, go with Boldin and Marshall and at flex, go with LenDale. On DT, I think Dallas is your best bet. Big Ben takes a lot of sacks.
Jack – Cutler, Hillis (KC has a bad rush D). I’d go with Moore and Cotch at WR. Toomer is okay, but I feel better about the other two.
Geo – Lynch!
Bob – I think you can cut Faulk. I’d start Scheff over Daniels this week. I would stick with Cotch. Berrian has a great matchup, but how much will Minny have to throw? That’s the concern. Given your options, I’d go with Berrian over Fargas.
Pat – Your lineup looks great. Hightower is a solid start this week. Rodgers should be fine – forecast right now is 18 degrees and sunny. Favre is a very solid start in SF if the weather in GB turns bad or you are worried about wind or wind chill.
hey john this is my first year playing fantasy football and some how i made it to the playoffs, you sound like you know your stuff, so i need your help please
WR-derrick mason vs redskins
WR-eddie royoal vs chiefs

WR-domenik hixon vs eagles
I NEED TO PICK 3 FOR WEEK 14
RB-clinton portis vs ravens
RB-warrick dunn vs panthers

RB-peyton hillis vs chiefs
I NEED TO PICK 2 FOR WEEK 14
TE-jason witten
TE-k.boss
def-steelers
def-colts
if you could help me out i would appreciate it, also i am not in ppr league
I am not sure whether to start Darren McFadden or DeSean Jackson this week in Fantasy.
This is a PPR League.
If you could help me out, that would be awesome
Hurley – Welcome to the site. At WR, I’d definitely go with Moss and Royal. After that, I think Mason is your best bet. At WR, Hillis is a must-start. It’s tough to bench Portis, but he has been unproductive lately, is nicked up and has an awful matchup, so I’d probably go with Dunn. If Portis is looking a lot better later in the week, I might reconsider. At TE, I’d definitely go with Witten, even with a bad matchup. On defense, Indy has a great matchup with a bad, bad Cincy team.
Bobby – that’s a tossup. I’d go with Jackson because he’s been a more consistent threat this season and is less likely to get injured. Also, Philly is likely to be playing from behind which should mean lots of passes headed his way.
what is a ppr league i dont know if my league is ppr or not
Pick 1
S.Moss or Coles
Pick 3
Frank Gore
Justin Fargas
Peyton H
Lynch
W.Dunn
Steven Jack
hey john that helps out a lot but i have one more question for ya. since plaxico is out and hixon will replace do you think mason is better choice than hixon, and do you base it on the match up for the week
Hurley – A PPR league awards one point per reception. I picked Mason because he has been very solid all year.
Geo – I’d go with Moss. At RB – Hillis, Lynch and Gore.
thanx
ok help
non pprleague
here we go
2 WR
T.O.(Pit.)
Bernard Berrian (Det.)
Issac Bruce (NYJ)
Brandon Marshall (KC)
Dominiq Hixon (Phi.)
Amani Toomer (Phi.)
Mark Clayton (Was.)
(i know i have a lot)
now
2 RB
Michael Tunner(NO)
Matt Forte (Jac.)
Larry Johnson (Den.)
Frank Gore (NYJ)
Please i have an idea but want opinions
thanks
Thanks JP, if you have to pick one, Berrian or M.Harrison?
Luis – I’d recommend TO and Marshall at WR. Turner and Forte at RB.
should i trade Greg Jennings and Stellers D for Ladanian Tomlinson?
Not a ppr:
Brian Westbrook
Ricky Williams
Derrik Ward
Brandon Jacobs
Pick 2
Thanks, Bobby
Bob – I think I’d go with Berrian. I’m worried that Detroit won’t put up much of a fight, but they should be able to put some points on the board against a division rival.
Ben – It depends on who else you have on your roster.
Bobby – I’d go with Westy and Jacobs.
I need a win this week this get into the playoffs. PLEASE MR. POST-MAN, SHOW ME THE WAY!!!
QB: Ryan, Thigpen or Rivers
WR: Berrian, Colston, Royal or Jackson
RB: C. Johnson, Peterson, T. Jones
Sorry, I need 2 WR & 2 RB.
Lamareo is this a PPR league?
QBs are a close call, but I think Ryan has the best matchup, so I’d go with him. OAK has been tough against the pass lately and you never know which DEN defense is going to show up. I think it’s a safe bet that NO is going to give up some points to ATL.
At WR – Colston and Royal look like your best bets.
At RB – AP for sure. Then I’d go with TJ. Tough to sit down CJ, but them’s the breaks.
Need some serious help here. If I win this week I get a playoff spot. Non-PPR league.
K (pick 1)
Elam
Kaedig
WR/TE (Pick 3)
W. Welker
A. Toomer
Z. Miller
L. Evans
R. White
RB (Pick 2)
B. Jacobs
B. Jackson
L. Washington
C. Portis
QB is Eli Manning
D/ST is NY Jets
Any help is appreciated as this is my first year.
DJ – Welcome to the site.
K – Elam – good matchup against the Saints
WR – Welker, Roddy and L. Evans.
RB – Jacobs and…um…um…Portis? (he has a brutal matchup – my next choice is L. Washington. It looks like Grant will play, if he doesn’t, go with BJ over Portis.)
Good luck!
Playoff week. I need to start two WR and two RB and either another RB or WR in the W/R slot. Can you help me out John?
WR
Antonio Bryant
Domenik Hixon
Santana Moss
Derrick Mason
Isaac Bruce
Eddie Royal
RB
Lendale White
Ryan Grant
Reggie Bush
Warrick Dunn
Like many others, this is my first year as well. Thanks John.
Im new here John, in a PPR league:
QB: McNabb or Big Ben
WR: Dwayne Bowe, Amani Toomer, or TJ Houshman…(I plan to start Larry Fitz.)
RB: Westbrook, Dunn, Chris Johnson, or Ronnie Brown
I can start 2 WR, 2RB, and a flex
Thanks John
Randy – No easy choices here. I would go with Royal and Mason at WR for consistency’s sake.
At RB, I would start Grant and Bush, and give White the start as a flex.
Domenick – I’d go with the QB that has the better weather. I lean Big Ben because he has been more consistent of late, but it’s a tossup, so keep an eye on the weather and switch to McNabb if it looks like he has better conditions.
WR – Bowe and Housh.
RB – Westy and CJ. I’d start Dunn as the flex since it’s a PPR league.
Welcome to the site, guys. Take a look around.
John –
Great service and site! My season is on the line this week. Sit at number #4 — it may come down to points in which case I am leading all others in that high middle pack. Non PPR league.
S. Smith and Jennings at WR seems right.
My trouble is with the 2 RBs and Flex. Here’s what I have to work with in a 10 person league.
Mewelde Moore
Fast Willie Parker
Derrick Ward
Ted Ginn Jr.
C. Portis
K. Curtis
L. Coles
Need some help — thanks in advance and will pass along the site (but not to the guys in my league)
Thanks John. I was having trouble deciding on whether to start Bush or not after his game last week. I also considered starting Hixon since Burress is out now. You think he’ll see the end zone at all?
Bumble – I think I would go with Parker and Portis at RB. Parker seems to be back and while Portis is nicked up, I think he’s your best option. If it looks like he isn’t going to play, I’d try Ward.
At flex, Coles seems like the best bet. He had a bad game last week, so I would expect him to bounce back against the 49ers.
I’m in non PPR league and am playing Fitzgerald and Andre Johson. For my 3rd WR should I play Berrian or Driver?
thanks!
Non-PPR I think I’d go with Berrian – He has a shot to beat DET deep.
playoffs start this week … league is PPR
RBs (Pick 2)
Tomlinson
Slaton
Hillis
Pierre Thomas
WR/TE (2WR, 1TE, 1 W/T)
Lance Moore
Kevin Walter
Derrick Mason
Mark Bradley
(I could pick up Mark Clayton from wire)
Kevin Boss
Heath Miller
Def (1)
Minnesota
Indianapolis
Hey John, what’s up?
Stingy PPR league (1/2-point)
2/2/1 Flex from:
RB’s: CJ, MJD, Warrick Dunn, Ronnie Brown
WR’s: R. Moss, Lance Moore, Isaac Bruce, Coles and Cotchery.
I’m tempted to play both Jets, but it’s also a scary proposition. I also have to consider either Farve or Thigpen at QB, so that might factor into my decision.
What do you think?
Chris – I’d go with LT and Slaton, but it’s a shame you can’t start Hillis as well.
I’d go with Moore, Walter and Mason, with Boss at TE. On defense, I’d start Indy if the MIN DTs stay suspended and if they play, I’d go with the Vikings.
J.Anthony – At RB, I’d go with CJ and MJD. At WR, Moss and Cotchery. Moore at the flex. I think I’d go with Favre at QB.
Standard scoring.
QB: tony romo or gus frerotte? (i can also pick shaun hill/hasselbeck from free agents if needed)
I am leaning towards frerotte – if the williams are suspended, DET might keep the game more competitive. I also have pittsburgh D – playing both romo and pittsburgh D seems strange.
RB: willie parker, justin fargas or mewelde moore? (need 1. i guess it is too late to play fargas. i am leaning towards willie due to the weather)
Non-PPR, 2 WR needed: T.O., Hines Ward, Bernard Berrian, Bowe?
First round playoffs this week-
Who would you go with?
(PPR League)
WR:
Hines Ward
Domenick Hixon
Isaac Bruce
Steve Breaston
Harry Douglas
RB:
Maurice Jones-Drew
Marion Barber
Jonathan Stewart
Chester Taylor
Dominic Rhodes
It’s 2 WR’s & 2 RB’s with a flex option W/R…What do you think?
Thank-you
Zack
John,
I’m in a non-PPR league. I wanted some advice on who to start for my Flex position – Pierre Thomas or Steve Breaston. In my league we are awarded 1 point for 10 rushing yeards and 1 point for 7 receiving yards.
Additionally, what are your thoughts on Coles and Hixon for this week? Are they good starts?
Thanks!
Hi John,
Should I drop Warrick Dunn for Pierre Thomas for the coming weeks?
THanks,
Raj
OK I can play 2 RB and 2 QB’s in my league Whats your advice
RB’s Hillis, D. Williams and Thomas Jones
QB’s Garrard, Garcia, Thigpen.
Appreciate your thoughts
Vivek – I don’t mind Frerotte this week, but I might pick up Hill because he’s probably going to have to pass the ball to stay in the game. Romo’s matchup is just too tough. Parker at RB is probably the right call.
Grant – Tough call. I think you can cross Berrian off your list given your other options. If the weather is okay in PIT I would go with TO and Ward. But if it’s ugly, I’d sub Bowe in for TO.
Zack – I’d go with Ward and Bruce at WR. MJD and Barber (if he plays) at RB. If Barber can’t go, I’d sub Chester in. Hixon at flex.
Vinay – I think Pierre Thomas is a solid flex start this week. Coles should bounce back and Hixon is a solid start as well.
Raj – I’d hold onto Dunn since he’s the primary ball carrier in Tampa.
Adam – It’s tough to sit DeAngelo down but he has the worst matchup of the three and they’re all hot. I’d go with Hillis and TJ. At QB, I think Thigpen and Garrard are your best bets, barring awful weather in CHI.
I’ve got two slots left to fill at WR, who do I put in there:
Donald Driver
Wes Welker
Ted Ginn Jr.
And I’ve got one RB slot left, who takes it:
Larry Johnson
Le’Ron McClain
Sammy Morris
Maurice Jones-Drew
In a PPR league would you go with Steven Jackson (ARI) over Brandon Jacobs (PHI) this week?
The same league I am in awards points for Kick and Punt Return yards(.1 for every kick return/punt return yard gained, I know its absurd)does that make Eddie Royal a must start over Lee Evans?
Same question I have to go through every friggin week: do I start a desperate Brees or a matchup-favored Cutler?
Jason – I think Driver and Welker are your best bets. At RB, LJ has a nice matchup.
Jizzle – I’d go with S-Jax and Royal. I would probably start Royal over Evans w/o return yards counting, so yeah, I’d say he’s a must-start in that format.
Jon – I’d go with Brees. The Broncos are going to have a lot of success running the ball, so my guess is that Cutler doesn’t have to throw that much.
Thanks man that should calm my nerves until Sunday.
QB (pick 1)
Drew Brees or Matt Ryan

who would you start, need 3wr and 2 rb, r.bush, ronnie brown, and chris johnson. wr, berrian, bowe, ward, chad johnson, d. mason, and randle el. thank you
First time here.
I need 2 wrs, a TE and a flex. This is not a ppr.
Who should I start
T.O.
Steve Breaston
Matt Jones
Dallas Clark
Dustin Keller
All right, let’s set some lineups…
Alex – I would start Royal over Desean. I’d stick with D. Clark.
Mark – You’ll definitely want to start Fitz and R. Moss. Then I’d go with Hillis, S-Jax and Hightower. Portis is dinged up and I haven’t seen enough of Bush to start him over a healthy Hightower with a great matchup.
AJAX – That is a tough call. Phi’s defense is pretty solid, and DEN’s has been playing well, so I’d go with Lynch and Hightower.
KAYA – Brees. Bowe, Colston, Royal. Slaton & Hillis at RB.
John – Start your stud – AJ. I like the Jets DT this week.
TW – I don’t know how many you have to start, but I’d go with Bush, R. Brown and McClain in that order, Boss at TE and CHI DT.
Tanner – Roddy, Anquan, Isaac. Jackson & Dunn. Flex – Grant, DT – TB.
Hurley – I’d go with Mason, Bryant and Hixon in that order. Favre is a better play at QB (matchup).
SEB – Slaton should have a big day against a bad GB rush defense. Addai is Q.
Anon 1 – Hillis & CJ. Feel free to change your kicker – it’s tough to kick in PIT. I’d go with MIN at DT. They should get a lift from the DTs being back.
David – Tough call, but go with your gut.
Geo – MIN DT.
Cameron – Thigpen. Turner & Hightower for sure. Lindell & the MIN DT.
Jason P. – I’d go with Hill at QB – tough to bench McNabb after last week, but he has the Giants and that’s a bad matchup. S-jax at RB – tough call. Cotch and Housh – easy calls. Go Jets!
Rick – Tough to bench Westy, but Hillis has an awesome matchup.
Billy – CJ and Ronnie in a std league. CJ and Reggie in a PPR league. At WR, Ward, Bowe and Berrian.
David 2 – TO and Breaston at WR, Keller at TE and Matt Jones at flex. Good luck!
One more Q;
Matt Prater against KC?
or
John Kasay against TB?
(if it matters)
I also want to thankyou for your help! I could not choose between Marvin H. and Isaac Bruce! I have emailed your website to everyone remaining in my league, (besides the guy who I am playing against!)HaHa!
Tanner- I would start Kasay. Prater is most likely gonna be kicking a lot, but they will probably be of the one point variety. I like Kasay’s FG chances better.
I also have a roster question…I’m not sure if I should take a chance or just go with what got me to the playoffs..I’m playing someone with a very good team, but feel confident with this lineup:
K. Warner
Gore
Lynch
Welker
K. Walter
Cotchery
Witten
Titans
M. Bryant
I’m benching Warrick Dunn, Santana Moss, and Matt Cassel. Do any of these players deserve a start?
Thankyou!
Who do I start…non-ppr
Bush
Addai
Rhodes
Thanks for the help…
Sorry…which of the three…only need one.
who should i start?
qaurterbacks: pick one
Tony Romo at Pittsburgh
Gus Frerotte at Detroit
Runing Backs: pick two
Peyton Hillis against KC
Brandon Jacobs against Philadelphia
Ronnie brown against Buffalo
Clinton Portis against ravens
Wide Recievers: pick two
Jeremy Cotchery at SF
Steve Breaston against STL
Chad Johnson at IND
Amani Toomer vs Philadelphia
Tight Ends: pick one
Tony Gonzalez at Denver
Tony Scheffler vs KC
i also have the giants defense and some defenses that are free are:
Bills
Redskins
Falcons
Saints
Patriots
Browns
Texans
49ers
Seahawks
Bengals
Rams
Broncos
Chiefs
Lions
should i pick any of those defense up or stick w/ the giants
Hello. In a touchdown heavy, non PPR league…I need to start two RB from the following:
Addai: Good matchup but he is questionable and Rhodes has been vulturing carries
D Williams: On fire but facing a defense that has only given up one rushing TD all year
R Brown: He’s been mediocre, but at least consistent in TD leagues…
S Morris: I think he is a sneaky play…I am thinking NE wins big and runs Morris all second half…
I need 2 WR….b. Marshall, R wayne or E.royal
Justin- Romo is going to be playing in very cold weather against a very good D. Frerotte is indoors against a terrible D and Bernard Berrian has been very good lately. It’s your call, but I give the edge to Frerotte due to matchup and weather. Other than that I would start Jacobs, Hillis, Cotch, Breaston, Gonzo, and keep G men defense. All of these players are hot or have a favorable matchup.
HI – I need to choose two running backs to play this week – I have ronnie brown, Clinton portis and steven jackson, which two would you choose?
thank you matt
Sorry, guys. I don’t have much time Sunday morning to answer questions. It’s best if you can get them in by early Saturday.
Good luck.
Hello- I have a last minute question. Should I start Ronnie Brown (vs. Buf) or Warrick Dunn (vs. Car) as RB this week? I am in a non-PPR week and LT is my other RB (who I obviously started, stud that he is). Thoughts?
Thanks!!!

PPR league I have one RB spot left and a flex position
hines ward
antonio bryant
steve jackson
frank gore

THANKS!!!
Hi John,
One last question before you close this week of. Would you keep Warrik Dunn or Jonathan Stewart? I already own De Agenlo Williams.
Hi JP,
Big thanks to you, I’m in the semi-final 3rd year in the row, but I’m playing a very tough opponent who has DeAngelo William, Colts D, Drew Bree, Calvin Johnson, Larry Fitzgerald, Thomas Jones and Brian Westbrook… so that make my chance of going to final 3rd year in a row very slim… hope you can help to increase my chance…
I have Peyton Manning as my QB. I will start Brandon Marshall as my WR1. Jerricho Cotchery has not been performing lately… I have Bernard Berrian… who should I start as WR2, or should I pick up any of the players below,
J.Gage, S.Breaston, M.Jenkins, D.Hixon, M.Jones, P.Crayton… not a whole lot of choices out there…
RB… I have B.Jacobs and S.Slaton, I’m afraid Jacobs will be out due to his knee, and Slaton is playing the tough Titans’ D… I have J.Stewart and T.Choice on my bench. K.Faulk, M.Morris, D.Rhodes, J.Fargas still available…
And who should I start on TE, I have O.Daniels and T.Scheffler.
I have Pitts D… but playing Baltimore… I’m worry about them too.
