    Braylon historically has put up good numbers against Baltimore, I'm starting him.

    In a couple leagues, he's buried to the point I'm not worrying about it... but I have a league where I'm deciding between him and the likes of Ted Ginn and Bernard Berrian.

    That's not even a decision; I'd play him in that situation even if Westbrook was playing. Of course I suck at fantasy historically.

    Thanks for everyone's input. Who should I put in my flex spot?

    6 points/touchdown
    1 point/10 rushing+receiving yards

    McFadden
    Pierre Thomas
    Mike Sims-Walker
    Devin Hester
    Dustin Keller

    I have to say Pierre Thomas at this point. The New Orleans offense is looking like a juggernaut. Denver's Defense has looked outstanding in the first 2 weeks but it could be fools gold, David Garrard should never be trusted to produce fantasy points, etc, etc.

    Should I start the Broncos' Elvis Dumervil @Oakland, or Falcons' Mike Peterson @New England?

    Should I start Sproles (home against Miami) or LeSean McCoy (home against Kansas City). I have both RBs on my team for situations like today when both LT and Westbrook are inevitably hurt.

    Tom Brady has ****ed my team over for the last time. I nearly lost last week due to his poor performance and he cost me the win this week. I lost by 3 points. Had I started Joe Flacco, I would have remained undefeated. ****!!!

    Minnesota and San Francisco are both running teams but the 49ers are definitely facing the worst defense in the two matchups. I'd go with Hill.

    I'd give the Bengals defense a shot against a completely useless offense like Cleveland.

    Who should I start?

    McFadden against the worst defense in the league.
    or
    Pierre Thomas after the great week he had last week.

    V. Davis had a great game, and Gore's hurt for at least 3 weeks. Hill should do very good.
    Well, I guess we're too ashamed to ID this worst run defense in the league, but honestly McF hasnt proved he could put up the numbers yet. Thats not to say he won't walk over us, because he did last year, but he still hasnt hit combined yardage over 100yds, and only 1 TD. Pierre Thomas should be your guy, but I'm biased in playing guys against my team.

    My question
    Which team defense? Minnesota or Green Bay, I'm going to need every point I can get this week, philly's bye is killing me.

    I already picked up SF and I could have grabbed Cin, fwiw. I think either one is a great waiver pick up that should out-perform just about any other defense.

    Pierre Garcon v. Seattle or Andre Caldwell @ CLE? Yes, it's that bad. Or I should be able to pick up Avery who has sucked so far (I just dropped him, didn't realized that Laurent Robinson was injured but not sure if it would have mattered).

    QB ????
    Brady vs. Ravens
    Flacco vs. Pats
    Ben vs. Chargers

    I don't feel comfortable with Brady vs. the Pats, what do you guys think?

    Also, Cadillac vs. Skins or Ronnie Brown vs. Bills?

    Carson Palmer (@ Cleveland) or Shaun Hill (vs. STL)

    Who would you guys pick to start?

    Palmer, definitely.

    Question:

    I've got to start 3 WRs and Steve Smith is on Bye; so, my remaining 4 options are:
    - Percy Harvin
    - Braylon Edwards
    - Roy Williams
    - Kevin Walter

    I need 3, who should I sit?

    Looking for some opinions on a trade I made earlier. I'm in a PPR league.
    My team is
    QB: McNabb, Garrard
    RB: Jones-Drew, Ray Rice, Tomlinson
    WR: Steve Smith(CAR), S. Holmes, Cotchery, Manningham
    TE: Carlson, Keller
    K: Kaeding
    D: Bengals (I play week to week on defense)

    So I accepted a trade of Gore and Lee Evans for Cotchery and Tomlinson. I know Gore is out for 3 weeks but when he comes back a combo of Jones-Drew and Gore could be lethal.

    You need to pick up a QB for this week. I'm in a 8 team league and luckily Schaub was available. I'm actually starting him over Brees this week.

    If Schaub isn't available, Carson Palmer has a favorable matchup. You should also nab Glen Coffee if he is available. That would be ideal for you since you have Gore.

    I have the Jets D and since they are playing the Saints, I also picked up the Bengals D to play this week :cool:
