    I don't think Jennings is playing. Jones and Nelson will start, and Cobb should see plenty of touches.

    In our 10 team PPR league I was just offered:

    Michael Crabtree
    Stevan Ridley

    for

    Dez Bryant

    I have Hakeem Nicks, Brandon Marshall, Kenny Britt, Sidney Rice, Brandon LaFell and Randall Cobb as my other WRs and Darren McFadden, Doug Martin and Donald Brown as my RBs. Andrew Luck is my backup QB. I would have to drop one player.

    I'd take that in a PPR. Ridley may not be as valuable in a PPR, but Crabs is.

    Definitely want some McFadden insurance.

    Ridley will be a good RB3 for you. For bye weeks you wont lose too many points

    Unless you're starved at WR, do that deal and don't look back. I disagree strongly with bobmarley - Ridley will be a top 12-15 RB this year when all is said and done. He could turn out to be the most valuable player in this deal.

    I do like getting Ridley. Crabtree concerns me since Dez has more intangibles. However he might end up getting suspended for at least one game as well. What the heck, I'll do the deal and drop Luck.

    Who's your backup QB if you drop Luck?

    Between Maclin, Holmes, Sidney Rice, and Boldin.. which two are the best to play this week assuming all of them suit up?

    Maclin vs. Baltimore

    Holmes vs. Pitt

    Rice vs. Dallas

    Boldin vs. Philly

    Thanks in advance!

    I'd go with Jeffery here. Tonight will probably end up being an air raid and I could see him catching a few deep balls and maybe a touchdown.

    There are plenty of options on the wire if I need one:

    Luck
    Flacco
    Smith
    Locker

    I did think about dropping Brown instead.

    Don't drop Brown, I think he has RB2 value this year. You will be in great position to trade one of your guys in a few weeks.

    I think......

    I'd go Maclin and Boldin. But not all that confident with those matchups/players this week.

    Thanks For the reassurance guys. I like Jeffrey a lot and I think he's going to be beast this season.

    Flacco on the WW? What kind of league is this?

    Bad vibes on Meachem since preseason, little chemistry with Rivers. That continued into game 1. Bench him until he proves otherwise.

    Lot of tough matchups there. Sidney Rice looked good last week, I think he's pretty much the #1 WR there and he's playing at home, but man that DAL defense is looking stingy against the pass (witness how they shut down Nicks and Cruz in week 1). I'd certainly play Maclin if he were healthy, but that's up in the air.

    Boldin looks like the least brutal of the four situations, but even there expectations have to be tempered significantly.

    Thanks!

    Yeah. I'm not sure who they're going to put Aso on, but would be tough for Boldin also. Thanks!

    Haha! I'm one of 2 managers with only one QB at the moment. I'll be looking to drop someone or hopefully do a 2-for-1 trade of my own soon.

    Here's my team now:

    Darren McFadden (Oak - RB)
    Jimmy Graham (NO - TE)
    Hakeem Nicks (NYG - WR)
    Brandon Marshall (Chi - WR)
    Doug Martin (TB - RB)
    Michael Crabtree (SF - WR)
    Stevan Ridley (NE - RB)
    Matt Ryan (Atl - QB)
    Kenny Britt (Ten - WR)
    Baltimore (Bal - DEF)
    Donald Brown (Ind - RB)
    Randall Cobb (GB - RB/WR)
    Sidney Rice (Sea - WR)
    Shayne Graham (Hou - K)
    Brandon LaFell (Car - WR)
