    I'd go with Nicks and Jackson for sure. Jackson/Bowe is kind of a toss up, but I'd give the edge to Jackson based on KC's lackluster passing game in week one (and Bowe blew a couple of opportunities in that one).

    What's the deal w/Dez Bryant? Don't know if they were just trying to get him going w/those 8 catches last week or if that kind of targeting will continue in the short-term.

    I think Williams is just keeping that starting slot warm for Bryant. I wouldn't be surprised if it is his in 2-3 weeks, if that long.

    I was offered the following:


    Mike Williams (SEA)

    for

    Vincent Jackson (SUS)


    Yay or nay!

    I'm kind of hesitant because of the hearing tomorrow but at the same time, the NFC West is weak and they play the equally weak AFC West this year.

    How deep are you at WR? Would Williams ever really play?

    You might as well, if you have other capable WR on your team in case VJ remains suspended. It is a gamble for sure, but it seems like there is a chance he could play in week 4.

    Here's my dilemma. I have 4 quality starting RB in a 2 RB league. I feel like I'm pretty thin depth wise everywhere else. Here is my roster:

    QB:Cutler(CHI)

    RB:MJD(JAX), Forte(CHI), LMcCoy(PHI), BJackson(GB), McGahee(BAL)

    WR:Fitzgerald(ARI), CJohnson(DET), Crabtree(SF), DBryant(DAL), VJackson(SD)

    TE:ZMiller(OAK)

    K:Rackers(HOU)

    DEF:Saints

    Should I trade away one of my RB to get another quality WR or sit tight and hope for the best with Vincent Jackson.

    I would try to trade forte for a top 1 or 2 tier Wr.

    Keep your depth of ronnie brown and naanee, injuries might creep up.

    Better option: Ochocinco or Wes Welker?

    Williams is basically the #1 WR at Seattle right now. I'd rank him as a decent #2/#3 WR in most fantasy leagues.

    I'd be careful with DeSean Jackson ... Michael Vick isn't the most accurate QB when throwing downfield and he could lose value to Brent Celek and Vick's scrambles. But he's probably worth starting anyway since it's Detroit. I don't like the Eagles offensive players in general this week, except for LeSean McCoy.

    Wow, your team looks a lot like mine lol

    I've got a ridiculous amount of good players. I can start 2 RB's 2 WR's and a flex player.

    Options: WR- Steve Smith (Car), Brandon Marshall, Hakeem Nicks
    RB- MJD, DeAngelo Williams, Matt Forte, Brandon Jackson

    Who do I pick?

    I think MJD, Marshall, and Smith should be starters. They are the type of players that can get you a win any week by themselves. I like Williams going against the Bucs defense and also like Jackson's match up more so than Forte. I think Nicks will depend on how you see the NY vs IND game playing out. I think NY will try to run on the Colts, but if you feel like the Colts can get out to a decent lead then Nicks might become a better option. At the moment I would go with MJD, Williams, Jackson, Marshall, and Smith

    My current wide receivers are:

    Colston (NO)
    Owens (Cin)
    Crabtree (SF)
    Williams (Dal)
    Jackson (Sus)

    Technically, I have four starting wide receivers although I don't think Williams will be starting to much longer. Should I just wait and see if Jackson wins his arbitration case today?

    Bowe against the Browns, or Moss against my beloved young Texans secondary?

    I think at this point you are better off just waiting. Worse case scenario, there are usually quality WR on waivers during the season
