alright, it's week 8, i've got a few sure starters on the bench and a bunch of RB/WR slots with lots of second tier options and bad matchups :/. not looking good. QB, TE, WR #1/#2, K, DEF are set, but i need 1 more WR, 2 RBs, and a flex (WR/RB) for this week and i'm having trouble figuring it out. there are points on receptions (0.5) and return yards (1 for 20). all names link to yahoo profiles (stats etc).

the two somewhat obvious RB coices are facing 2 of the elite defenses in the league :/.

right now i'm leaning towards jones-drew (RB), washington (RB), keshawn (WR), and mcalister (W/R) with a terrible matchup.

any thoughts?

oh yeah, going up against LT, westbrook, and gates, so it might not matter.

I'd start Cotchery over Johnson, but you're on track with the RBs.

I'd start:
Washington -- looks good so far, and they play CLE
McAllister -- didn't BAL get run over just before their bye?
Cotchery -- decent matchup, decent QB
