    Because Keller had big games last year too, his production was extremely inconsistent, just like Sanchez. Santonio Holmes will have an impact soon. Just a hunch though.

    For my flex position (PPR league), I'm debating...

    Mike Tolbert (SD) @ Sea

    vs

    Brandon Jackson (GB) @ Chicago

    I also have Steve Breaston, Thomas Jones, and Brandon Lloyd available, but I don't think any of those will ultimately do any better.

    It's looking more and more like Ryan Matthews won't play, so Tolbert will get the start and he looked pretty good last week. Chicago still has a great run defense, so I'm leaning towards Tolbert. Someone give me a reason why I shouldn't...

    I'm starting both if this trade I have pending doesn't go thru.

    Go with Tolbert, there's not even 1 good reason you shouldn't. He gets it done through the air with Rivers and on the ground as well.

    What do you guys think about this trade? Kinda one sided?

    Ray Rice
    Steve Smith (Giants)

    for

    Tolbert
    Portis
    and Greg Olsen

    I would have offered Brandon Jackson but he already has Aaron Rodgers, I personally don't like having two players on the same team if I can avoid it. Thoughts?

    Why do you avoid it? I love having multiples. It might bite you during a bye week but you get to make sure you account for all the points you deserve. Wayne, Clark, Collie, Addai, I would love to combine those guys. If for nothing else, the satisfactions I get when I play the guy with Manning.

    I don't know, its just a thing of mine. Don't get me wrong, if I have the opportunity to nab a Aaron Rodgers/Jermichael Finley combo or Manning/Wayne, I'd definitely jump all over it.

    But if its a reciever/running back package I'd probably refrain cause I feel like one would be in a way "stealing" points away from the other.

    I also try to draft a D that does not play my QB so that I won't be going head to head against my own two players.

    I'm just weird when it comes to things like that.

    Culter vs Packers, or Orton vs Colts?

    I know Cutler has been tearing it up lately, but I'm kind of hesitant. Hopefully MJD decides to bust out this week and makes the difference between Cutler and Orton negligible. Luckily I'm 3-1 with his disappointing ass.

    You're getting Ray Rice and Steve Smith for a backup, a washed up, and a TE?

    Yeah, I'd do it.

    I know people who don't like to draft too many players from the same conference in basketball fantasy. Quirks like that make things fun.

    thanks to autodraft i have a choice of this for my RB in my league


    shonn green vs mia
    jonathan stewart vs cin
    beanie wells vs oak


    i can start 2, my other RB was bush who got hurt monday..there are no RBs on the waiver or FA pool that i can pick up that aren't 3rd string or worse.

    it is a PPR league as well.

    Last I heard Wells might not play so that should help.

    I would go with Cutler just on the sheer fact that he has better talent to throw to. Although if Denver starts trailing look for them to throw early and often.

    Play Orton, Moreno is out and they will have to pass an awful lot to keep up. Hopefully, for you, that doesn't cause too many turnovers for Orton.

    Demaryius thomas, Eddie Royal, Gaffney, and Brandon Lloyd is a pretty talented group overall to throw to. At least as talented as Knox, Hester, Aromashadu, etc.

    Tough trade!

    My team is: QB Brady WR Moss, Steve Smith (Car), Wes Welker, bench for WR is Donald driver, and my RB Gore, Forte, Addai off the bench.

    I really like MJD and I think he will start dominating from now on.

    Would you guys do Matt Forte and Wes Welker for Sims Walker and Jones-Drew?

    Easy choice - start Greene and Wells. Wells will play on Sunday, and I suspect will take a lot of carries away from Hightower who might actually have worse fumblitis than Steve Slaton. Unfortunately for Stewart his head coach keeps giving away his mediocre set of carries to a third stringer...so he's no good.

    No, just no.

    You're giving up a lot for pretty much a hope that MJD gets back to form and he's been playing mediocre defenses. Rashad Jennings is taking a lot of carries away from him as well.

    Depends. Do you like losing?

    You have 2 players that are going to put up consistent #'s...especially Welker. You don't give them away for 2 players that might hit a homerun every few games. Sims-Walker has 10 catches this season. All were in week 2. He actually went 0-for in week 1 against Denver.
