My league has two WR positions, two RB position and one WR/RB flex. At those positions I've got: Anquan Boldin, Antonio Bryant, Ronnie Brown, Pierre Thomas, Frank Gore, Kevin Walter, and Tim Hightower It's week 16, the last week of the playoffs for me. I'm assuming Boldin, Bryant and Thomas are locks for the two WR positions and one RB position, but who should I start in the 2nd RB and WR/RB flex positions among Gore, Hightower, Walter and Brown? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.
Id choose Gore. Ive had Hightower ever since he was named starter, and he hasnt been impressive at all. Your wild card of course is Kevin Walter, and with Oaklands defense we will be doing what we want. Its just a matter of KWal getting attention over Daniels, Slaton and Johnson. Schaub spreads the ball like no other, but walters obviously not the first option. Gore/Walter and good luck
Yeah theres something with his shoulder, so itd be smart to rest him. Other things to note for Boldin: West team heading East (bad), 20 degrees and windy with snow/rain. Pats allow 2nd highest pass TDs, next to Cards ironically. Changing my answer to Bryant, Boldin (if hes not playing, Walter), with Thomas, Brown, Gore.
