Want another take on what happened last week? Fantasy Fallout
Wondering who to pick up? Waiver Wire Watch
Looking for a defense? DTBWW
Still have questions? Fire away. I’ll assume it’s standard scoring (no PPR) unless you tell me differently.

10 team PPR league and my roster includes Romo, E. Manning, Forte, T. Jones, A. Bradshaw, L.McCoy, G. Jennings, S. Smith(NYG), D.Mason, H. Nicks, E. Owen Daniels, Greg Olsen,. Who would you start? Need 2 backs 2 receivers, 1 TE, and a flex. Thanks. Would you drop anybody to add Maroney this week? Players available to add include Buckhalter, E. Royal, K. Walter, P. Garcon. Any of these guys make my line up stronger going forward?
Thanks
Would you start Breaston in the flex even though Boldin is playing this week, or would you throw in Kevin Faulk? Also is there any WR’s out there you would suggest picking up so I don’t have to play Muhsin Muhammad?
Thanks
Thanks again – as always good advice.
(Non-PPR)
For WR (need 2): Antonio Bryant, Nicks, Massaquoi, TO
3 in a row. you are good!! Ok down to business.
I think i may have made a dumb move without thinking. I dropped my NYJ def and picked up AZ.
Here is my starting roster for this week.
QB: P. Manning
RB: T. Jones
WR: S. Rice
TE: Winslow
W/R: P. Thomas
BN:Warner, Burleson, Housh
Available on waiver:
WR: M.Austin, Holt, M.Clayton, Breaston, M.Wallace, Collie, K.Washington, Berrian, Garcon, Avery,Maclin
RB: F.Jackson, Cadillac, Buckhalter, L.Washington, Choice, D.Brown, R.Bush, M.Bell, Maroney Parker, F.Jones
Would you drop Burleson, Housh, or S.Rice for whats available out there? Its a non PPR league.
Thanks!
Sorry for the Anonymous..forgot to put my name:)
I need a flex player in a PPR league this week.
Suggestion?
P.Garcon vs. Stl
P.Harvin vs. Pitts.
L.Washington vs. Oak
T.Hightower vs. NYG
Thanks!
JP,
You’re advise is always appreciated.. here’s my situation:
I’m pretty well stacked at the RB spot (MJD, Gore, Forte, Moreno, and Ahmad Bradshaw) my WR situation isn’t too bad either (AJ, S. Smith(NYG), Steve Breaston, Hester, and Collie). The Bye week situation for my WR is my worry. I was offered Garcon for Bradshaw. Considering the Colts had their bye week & that I’ve been plugging Bradshaw in as my Flex play, is this trade worth it?
Thanks a googoolillian!
JP,
W/ A.Boldin dinged & N.Burleson on a bye, I suddenly need to p/u a WR for t/w. I have several interesting options, but would like your input on ranking them:
-S.Breaston
-D.Hester
-H.Nicks
-M.Crabtree
-J.Morgan
-T.Holt
Thoughts?
Ken — With the S. Morris injury, I think Maroney has more value than McCoy at this point in the season. I’d start Eli, Forte, Maroney (if you get him, if not, Jones), Jennings and Steve Smith 2.0 this. Daniels is having the better season, but has a pretty tough matchup this week, so I lean Olsen. Walter and Royal would both be nice adds, but you should probably keep Nicks who is nice insurance for S. Smith 2.0.
Randy — I’d start Breaston over Faulk even if Boldin plays. Boldin is Q and didn’t practice on Wed. Check out my Waiver Wire Watch for ideas about who to pick up.
RJR — I’d go the two rookies, Nicks and Massaquoi, and cross my fingers.
Texas — There are some nice guys out there, but you don’t really have anyone to drop, so I’d stand pat. If Boldin looks like he’s not going to play, I’d go Breaston over Rice. Keep Burleson and Housh.
Schmiddy — Washington would be my choice. Second choice would be Hightower.
Rich — I wouldn’t trade Bradshaw away for Garcon, who is going to lose snaps once Gonzalez comes back.
Zookeeper — Since you have Boldin, Breaston is the guy you want. Great insurance for Q.
I have a stacked backfield, Mendenhall is extra. Would it be wise to trade him for a WR3, either Calvin Johnson or DeSean Jackson?
In another league, 10 team, I am looking to offload Knowshon Moreno for a WR also.
I have Jacobs, Chris Johnson and Gore. What is fair value at the time for Moreno? My receivers are B. Marshall, Berrian, Nicks, Derrick Mason and Mike Wallace…
Thanks for the help!
JP,
I picked up SD’s DEF for the week, do you think Atlanta’s D better play or stick with SD?
RB, should I start Gore or Mendenhall or Hightower? Or should I drop Hightower for any of these RBs?
F.Jackson, Cadillac, L.Washington, Choice, D.Brown, M.Bell, L. Maroney, L.Johnson, K.Faulk
WR, should I start S.Smith (NYG) or DeSean Jackson? Or should I drop one of them for any of these WRs?
M.Austin, A.Collie, B.Berrian, P.Garcon, J.Maclin, K.Walter, R.Meachem
W/R, do you think DeSean Jackson is a safe play? The Eagles is so inconsistence… and I don’t know if Maclin is McNabb’s new favorite target…
This week I’m playing against my bro-in-law – Texas-2-Wheel
I currently have the Colts DST and NE, and New Orleans are available. Who do you like for the rest of the year of these three? I’m in a 10 team league should I just play best match up every week? I like NE match up this week but the travel to London concerns me and they have a bye next week. I think I like NO over the colts the rest of the way.
Thanks for all your help!!
Great advice last week JP…..Need some help this week on who to start?
STARTING:
QB: Brees
WR:Colston
WR:Ochocinco
WR:L.Moore
RB:S.Jackson
RB:P.THomas
TE:Witten
K:Kaedeing
DEF:CHI
BENCH:E.Manning, McNabb,Austin, Lynch
Im not too sure who to start at RB& who do you think should play at WR this week? Any advice on a DEF or should i grab something off the waivers? Your top 3 is already gone!
Every week I have this issue, I have three slots to fill on receiver. I have wayne, collie, nicks, manningham, and austin. the matchups make everybody favorable. wondering your thoughts? and I have crabtree just in case.
iffy on this too. I have two slots and have barber, choice and bell at RB.
gotitans — Jackson or Johnson looks like good value for Mendenhall. I prefer Moreno to Jacobs right now, but reasonable value would be Bowe, Hines Ward, Sims-Walker, S. Smith 1.0, Housh, Boldin, etc.
Scorpion — Neither are particularly good, but SD seems a little better. Hightower is playing well, why would you drop him? I’d go with Gore and Mendenhall this week. At WR, why would you drop Steve Smith 2.0 or Jackson? DeSean got 12 targets last week, the previous week was an aberration.
Ken — Indy has the best matchup this week, but the Pats’ isn’t bad. Going forward, NO seems like the best pick, but they have tough picks in W8, W12, W14, W15. The Pats have good matchups in W14 and W15, so they would be a pretty good combo the rest of the way. I’d cut Indy and pick up NO and start either NO or NE this week. They’re about the same to me, given the matchups.
Kaya — I’d get Lynch in your lineup this week instead of Thomas. I’d also start Miles Austin over Moore. CHI has a decent matchup this week. Also, you don’t need three QBs — why not target a team with QB troubles and see if you can unload Manning or McNabb for a good WR or RB.
Dave D — I’d go with Wayne, Collie and Austin. At RB, I guess I’d go with Barber and Choice. They all have tough matchups.
Will this week finally be a good week for S. Smith (Car)??
Start Big Ben against Vikings or Cutler against Bengals?
A couple of trades have been offered to me and I have a few questions –
Non-PPR with 1pt/20 return yards
My Team:
WR: R Moss, Antonio Bryant, Nicks, Burleson, Massaquoi, TO
RB: Turner, Rice, Moreno, Maroney
First trade offer: Eddie Royal for Moreno (I don’t really need receivers but Royal is solid (even though he didn’t have a catch last week) and I will only play Moreno if Turner or Rice is injured) – I was thinking of picking up Forsett for a backup if I went through with this.
Second trade offer: Forte & Smith (Car) for Turner – I cannot take this offer but he made this immediately after I turned down Forte & Walter for Turner and he said “Can I offer you anything for turner?” – It may be a little far fetched but I was thinking Forte & Roddy White for Turner & WR that I have (thinking Massaquoi or TO)
What do you think about either of these ideas? Should I just leave me team alone?
Thanks again.
Hi, John I need 1QB 2RB 3WR 1TE 1DEF(NON-PPR) Heres my team QB: Rodgers, and Schaub RB:Addai, Mendenhall, and Forte. J.Jones, A.Bradshaw, and R.Williams and also on waivers if there better picks this week. WR:Rice, Driver, Welker, and Nicks TE:H.Miller, and Carlson DEF: Min, and Frisco Thanks For the Help!!!!
I could also get OAK DEF, or WAS DEF off waivers if there better choices
This is a tough question to have to ask (admittedly, I made a few bad moves), but should I start Steve Smith (carolina), or TO this week?
Randy — Smith 1.0 has a bad matchup and the team isn’t playing particularly well, but he’s always a threat to go nuts. I’d go with Big Ben against Minnesota. I don’t think the Steelers will have much success on the ground and will have to throw a lot.
RJR — I wouldn’t trade Turner unless you can get a guy like White out of the deal. Turner very valuable in non-PPR leagues and Forte and the Bears don’t have the running game going right now (and may not need it with Cutler under center). Forte + White for Turner + TO/Massaquoi/Bryant — that deal I’d do, but I doubt he’d go for it. I would not trade Moreno for Royal. Moreno has been good and Royal has not.
Evan — I prefer Rodgers this week (and most weeks). At RB, Addai and Forte look like your best starts (tough matchup for PIT RBs). Welker and Driver for sure at WR, and I like Rice a little more than Nicks this week as your WR3. Heath Miller is killing people at TE. Ride the wave. MIN DT should get some sacks this week on Big Ben.
Rob — I’d rather have Smith going than TO. Owens will likely have Fitzpatrick throwing to him. Smith seems like he has a better chance at a big game.
Hi
Who do you think would be the better to pick up and start this week:
Miles Austin vs Atl
Hakeem Nicks vs Ari
Thanks,
Chris
who do you start (need 2) – non ppr at flex – L Maroney, J Stewart, T Choice, D Bowe P thomas
Hello JP,
I have a tough (fantasy) game this week. It seems my opponent’s players have great matchups. He and I are “predicted” to score 25 percent more than the other teams in our league…BUT only 5 points separate us.
I am looking to you for your awesome advice to give me increased separation. You have kept me atop our league thus far, THANK YOU. (I am tied for 1st at 5-1; second place is 3-3.)
This week I need help at runningback (need 2)
Grant
Hightower
Lynch
Maroney (just aquired this week)
I am leaning towards Grant and Hightower, although the others have good matchups.
I look forward to your thoughts.
Thank You,
Bolt
OH Yeah one more thing…
Cardinals or Giants DST?
I played G-men last week and got torched. Zoners had a great game. (22 point mistake on my part)
Bolt
Chris — I prefer Miles Austin. He’s the starter in DAL while Nicks is still rotating in.
GMC — I’d go with Maroney (no S. Morris, great matchup) and Bowe (nice matchup). Stewart would be my third choice.
bolt power — Grant, Lynch and Maroney have great matchups, Hightower’s is just ok. While I like Maroney this week, I’ve been burned by him in the past. I’d go with Grant and Lynch. (Lynch and Maroney are pretty close in my mind, but Lynch is the better player.) On defense, the Giants have a better matchup. The NO game was probably more of an aberration than a trend.
Thanks for the help! Touchdown heavy league. RB2 LT or Thomas Jones? WR/TE pick 2 A. Gates, D. Clark, T. Gonzalez, D. Bowe? Thanks.
JP.. who do I start for my Flex spot: Steve Breaston or DeSean Jackson.
FYI – I’m already starting Andre Johnson and S. Smith (NYG), and I have Collie and Hester on the bench too.
I’m leaning towards Breaston… what do you think?
I’ve been offered two trades:
Steve Jackson for Rashard Mendenhall + Miles Austin
or
Brandon Jacobs for Kevin Smith + Miles Austin
my starting WRs are Fitzgerald, Colston, & Jennings (with Austin and Garcon on the bench.)
my RBs are P. Thomas, Mendenhall, Smith, and Mauroney.
which one looks better to you? or do i just stand pat?
Eric — At RB, that’s a very close call. I’d go with Thomas Jones since he’s scoring TDs with regularity and has a nice matchup against the Raiders. At WR/TE, I would get Bowe in there. The next three are a tossup — but I’d go with Gates since he’s pretty likely to score.
Rich — Boldin is practicing so I’d go with Jackson since Breaston won’t see as many snaps. If Boldin doesn’t play, Breaston is a nice start. ARI plays on Sun night, so you can wait until you find out about Boldin to make the final call.
Indy — I’d do the first deal for Jackson. Mendenhall is nice, but Jackson is having a top 10 or top 12 season and is an upgrade. I would NOT trade for Jacobs right now. I wouldn’t trade Smith for Jacobs straight up much less give up Austin in the deal as well.
hey JP
witch 3 WR should i start:
donney avery, piere garcon, lee evans, lance moore, jeremy maclin or mohammed massaquoi…its a PPR league
witch 2 RB should i start: deangelo williams, donald brown, or jamall lewis…and should i pick up glen coffe?
witch RB or WR should i start at flex position ?
Thnx
Who do you like more this week and for the rest of the season R.Mendenhall, J.Stewart, or P.Thomas? Thanks
Alex — I like Avery, Moore and Massaquoi at WR a little more than the other guys. At RB, definitely start DeAngelo at one spot. I guess I’d go with D. Brown at the other. At flex, it’s a tough call between Maclin and Evans, but I’d go with Maclin due to BUF’s issues at QB.
Evan — Tough call between Mendenhall and Thomas, but I guess Mendenhall given how the Saints pulled Thomas at the goal line. It might take a Mike Bell injury to make Pierre super-valuable again.
Hey, need some advice on who to start–mostly on QB and RB.
Here’s what I have right now:
QB: D. Mcnabb
WR: R. Moss
WR: V. Jackson
RB: D. Williams
RB: M. Bell
TE: H. Miller
W/R: G. Jennings
K: J. Carney
DEF: New Orleans
Bench:
B. Favre
H. Nicks
M. Austin
S. Rice
T. Hightower
V. Shiancoe
I have D. Williams, Ronnie Brown, Hightower, and Tomlinson.. need to start 3.
Yo JP, What DEF would you advise me to play.
CHICAGO or CAROLINA today?
Also,Who would you start at TE….Witten or Zach Miller today?

Would you drop Braylon Edwards or Anthony Gonzalez if Antonio Bryant was available?
Should I start McCoy or Forte for week 7?
