    debating if Ogletree will keep up his hot streak...

    But i'm real hesitant to put him in over Aj Green and Malcom Floyd. Or McGahee at Flex

    I took R. Jennings and also had to load up on TE's late so I let Spiller slip past me in the one league I drafted Jackson in. My picks were coming down to the wire debating whether to go with Spiller or not... I did grab Brown & Ridley but still. Broke one of my own rules that night trying to find a competent TE. I also genuinely felt MJD would holdout several games. That guy has no reason to be playing right now.

    He was only on the field for 32 snaps, but received an astounding 11 targets, so its obvious either whoever was covering him wasn't doing a very good job, or Romo has some faith in his abilities.

    I think Ogletree's long term prospects are where his real value is. Austin and Bryant are both injury risks.

    I'm thinking about actually outright dropping Jackson in my pro league.

    I have Ryan Mathews, Donald Brown, Alfred Morris, Jackson and LeShoure right now.

    Ryan Williams and David Wilson are both available.

    I want to wait until there is official word on Jackson because I don't want to outright drop him if he's going to be back in 3-4 weeks, but then I risk losing out on Wilson or Williams if either shows flashes on Sunday.

    Witten has been nonexistent in the red zone for a while now.

    Jay Cutler
    Larry Fitzgerald
    Steve Smith
    Marques Colston
    Frank Gore
    Matt Forte
    Rob Gronkowski
    Stephen Gostkowski
    Houston

    My team after trading Green Ellis for Colston... sick for a PPR league huh?

    1. Hmm, does this mean Olsen over Witten in a PPR league? I'm currently with Witten, but week one sucked and my mind is ready to be changed.
    2. Also, Crabtree, Hawkins, or Ogletree? I'm sticking with Crabtree vs. Detroit as the safe pick unless someone has a better reason.

    Crabtree really isn't a big TD threat either, but he does produce a good number of catches so I like him a lot better in a PPR format.

    I agree.

    I like Hawkins but feel it may be a little too earlier to count on him, I say wait a week or two and see how he's used in Cincy... I like to as a lesser Randall Cobb, with less threats at stealing targets if he pans out as a slot machine.

    I think since Romo and Witten are boys, Tony didn't want to see Witten take any hits out there, so he mostly didn't look to throw his direction.

    Now that he's had a week and a half to recover I think that he'll go back to his usual between the 20s role and be useful in PPR.

    That's an interesting take...makes sense. I'll stick with Witten for another week and hope that he doesn't put up another 2pt performance.

    Jay Cutler may not be a top 10 fantasy QB
    Frank Gore is a perpetual injury concern, and is no longer involved in the passing game.
    Forte is getting TD vultured, but in PPR that isn't as big of a deal.

    Certainly not a team I'd think was great, unless I was in a pretty big league.

    In a PPR league. I would actually start Olsen over Witten this week. Witten still coming back from injury and sharing targets/touches. Olsen is option 2/3 in CAR... I think that'd be a high scoring game against the Saints.

    Out of the three wide recievers, I would start Crabtree.

    I'm going with Olsen over Witten again in WK2 in a league.

    Well, Olsen it is. Reps points all around. Appreciate the feedback, no matter which way it went.

    Agreed but he had 9 or 10 just two years ago. Bennett and Robinson are gone. Jones is a non-factor. He'll steal looks and I'm guessing they'll be balls that would have gone Googletrees way.

    I think I will play Jeffery because Ziggy is never right.

    Now that Desean Jackson might be out for the game should i play james jones(GB) tonight since its more then likely that Jennings will be out?
