    Is your league PPR?

    If so, I'd go with Leon Washington if you bench Chris Johnson.

    If not, you might want to think about Julius Jones, because the Rams are horrendous.

    It's not PPR. I'm not sure I want to bench Chris Johnson, that's half the problem...

    Go with your gut then, sometimes its better to go with a stud in an unfavorable matchup as opposed to a bench warmer vs a crap defense.

    I agree here.

    If someone scores for the Titans, it is about 90% likely to be one of their RBs.

    Should I start Addai or Kevin Smith this weekend as my #2 RB (Slaton is my #1)?

    Right now I'm leaning towards Smith, since he's a clear cut #1 and Addai has more lingering questions...

    thanks in advance for any insight!

    Smith no doubt.

    Ray rice or Leon washington in a ppr league?
    Also, what about Marshall this week? I'd rather not start him but your opinions?
    also add in Marion Barber (vs. TB) or Ray Rice (vs KC) in a PPR?
    Marshall, Holt, or Morgan (choose 1) in a PPR?

    I'd go with Rice over Washington. Last I heard, Marshall was suspended indefinitely and I haven't heard of Denver reinstating him.

    Should I get rid of Thomas Jones for Leon Washington? I've got a feeling Washington will end up being the feature back this season

    All PPR, ordered em how I am currently leaning
    Benson, Moreno, or LJohnson?
    McFadden, Ward, Hightower?
    Rice, Benson, Addai, Lewis

    Obviously I took risks with my 2nd RB in a few leagues but I have some amazing receiving platoons. Usually you get a couple of random bust-out RBs, and maybe an oldie returns to form, so that was pretty much my RB2 philosophy this year and explains how each team has a relative newcomer (Moreno, McFadden/Hightower, Rice). But going into week 1 I honestly haven't seen much of any of those guys yet.

    Who should be my starters based on my roster:

    QBs: Donovan McNabb, Brett Favre

    RBs: Steve Slaton, Brian Westbrook, Felix Jones, Chester Taylor, Ladell Betts

    WRs: Marques Colston, Roy E. Williams, Darrius Heyward-Bey, Malcolm Kelly, Brandon Marshall

    TEs: Dallas Clark, Brent Celek

    Slots:

    QB, RB, RB, WR, WR, WR/RB, TE, DEF, K

    Bironas is my kicker :mad: and Minnesota is my defense.

    Right now I have McNabb, Slaton, Westbrook, Colston, Williams, and Marshall slated to start.

    McFadden was officially named the starter if that means anything.

    Should I start Dallas Clark IND (vs Jacksonville) or Tony Scheffler DEN (at Cincinnati)?

    ESPN projects Dallas Clark to score 9 pts and Tony Scheffler to score 14 pts.

    I need help deciding who to start for my TE this week. I can only pick one TE and the scoring for receiving is as follows:
    TD Reception 6 2pt Receiving Conversion 2
    40+ yard TD rec bonus 2 Every 10 receiving yards 1
    Each reception 0.5

    Who should I start as my 2nd RB? It's a PPR league.


    Reggie Bush (home) vs. DET

    or

    Ronnie Brown (road) vs. ATL

    I like both but I'm really leaning towards Bush especially with Pierre out. I think Bush can and will have a huge game that includes a punt return td.

    I'd say Bush. Saints should score close to 40 pts. vs. Lions

    Moes -- you were right on Thomas Jones torching the Texans.
