jordan sent ya a PM with a longer post about my trade thing if you dont mind take a look...

 

[mrben23]

Do you think Shannon Greene is worth starting Sunday against MIA?

 

[buc em]

anybody think justin forsett will be starting anytime soon? seattle has a really soft schedule for at least one of the rb's to do work and julius jonesisn't getting any better

 

[xdahcreator]

Eli Manning vs Eagles
or
McNabb vs Giants

ricky williams is going to have a huge day unless the jets can stop the wildcat...which they couldnt a few weeks ago...I am guessing a TD and 100yrds
thomas jones is going to have a big day too with the way the jets like to run the ball......shonn Greene is going to have a decent day as well
I dont trust jacobs for nothing, but I dont like the rice match up either so its a coin flip for me...the "experts" will probably say rice...

pick 1 WR or TE as my flex spot:

brent celek vs. giants
hakeem nicks vs. eagles
tory holt vs. titans

any help or feedback are greatly appreciated!

Tough, but not Holt. Nicks has been on fire compared to Celek so I would go with him.

Nicks is going down this week, I predict everyone who is part of the giants passing game to have under performing days....celek could have a goodday, but I would put my money on HOLT...

do you mean Shonn Greene????? and yes I would consider him a low #2 - high #3

and McNabb is going to have a huge game....everyone has been passing all over the giants lately I would start any part of the eagles passing game this week!!!

now my question is...........Braylon (if Cotchery plays opposite him) or Boldin???

 

[parada45]

Mccoy vs NYG or
Grant vs GB

Romo vs Sea or
Shaub @ Buff

 

[jpzx]

How do you guys like Garrard this week? Tom Brady's on a bye for me...

JAX is playing the Titans weak pass defense. I'm hoping Cortland Finnegan won't play...doesn't sound like he will but we'll see.

Anybody feel good about David Garrard this weekend?

 

[mustbetheshoe58]

^ i would play garrard..he's been on fire as of late

help me pick 2 players for my flex spot, its a PPR league

calvin johnson vs. rams

brent celek vs. giants

hakeem nicks vs. eagles

justin fargas vs. chargers

any help or comments are greatly appreciated!

why would you ask this question???? If you have a top 10 player at any position you should start them no matter what!!!!!! In this case Shaub isthe #1 scoring QB in normal scoring leagues so what do you think you should do???

if megatron is playing you have to start him...god I hope he plays!!!!!!
I am still saying that nicks is done with any type of huge scoring....
Celek should do ok especially in a ppr league...

 

[ludex360]

pick 2

frank gore vs colts
thomas jones vs dolphins
ricky williams vs jets

 

[cragmatic]

Matt Ryan Vs NO or Favre Vs Green Bay?

 

[simplisd]

brandon jacobs @phi or marshawn lynch vs Hou?

Also, Choose 2: Jennings vs Min, Boldin vs Car, Steve Smith @ari

this is easy....T.jones & Ricky.....I think gore will be a bust this week....

and for the dude asking about Ryan or Favre...take Favre, matt ryan's stock is on the way down..WAY DOWN!!!

 

[eentegra]

which 2 rb to start

deangelo at ari
t jones vs mia
sproles vs oak

im tempted to start sproles but LT is healthy and will get most of the touches.

whats NT thinking?

 

[dublbagn]

^^^^ok, lets get this out of the way.....you are asking a stupid question. You have two top 5 RB's in t.jones and deangelo williams, its not even aquestion who to start.

can we get a few things out of the way in this thread. if you have any of the following you need to start them no matter the match up.
Top 5 QB
Top 10 RB
Top 10 WR
Top 5 TE
Top 5 DEF/ST


people really need to stop asking questions like, "Who do I start, Peyton Manning or Chad Henne, I know Peyton is the 2nd highest scoring QB but Henne isplaying TB this week...."

5-2 (Rank: 3 of 10)
5-2 (Rank: 3 of 12)
5-2 (Rank: 3 of 12)

I'm doing awesome in points in all leagues and my teams are fairly consistent across the board. My points are high, I'm just getting some very unluckylosses (First in points but 7th place?!).

Man getting a bunch of points and not having the top rank is the worst. I feel you dude. I got a couple unlucky losses this season.

Gotta feel really good about starting him as your bye week replacement.
