Fantasy Tips

[itvnetop]

This is a longshot, but my second rb slot in one of my leagues is always a risk. I'm actually starting Keiland Williams this week as my rb2... my top back is mjd and the rest include cj spiller, peyton hillis and michael bush (I had Fred Jackson, but dropped him for keiland). Lack of rb depth is due to drafting a qb and te in the third and fourth rounds... Dallas Clark is hooking it up, though.

Normally, this is a bonehead move- and it very may turn out to be such. But looking at my other options, I don't think I have a choice... Spiller's spilling the beans with that three headed monster in Buffalo, Hillis isn't going anywhere against that Ravens' rush defense and Bush is way behind D-Mac in Oakland (plus he's working his way back from a broken thumb).

The Rams give up close to a buck fifty in rushing yards and I don't think Portis is going to get all of that... Hoping K. Will. pulls off a mini-Snelling this week after Larry Johnson's departure.

My fantasy has been suprisingly good. While one guy hasn't dominated, my Redskins have been doing a great job collectively:

Chris Cooley
Deanglo Hall
Santana Moss

Pittsburgh's defense has netted 36 pts through the first two games.

Donovan McNabb (bench, but I might start him over Rivers this week)

Make sure you know the status of Trent Williams this week before you do that. If Williams is out and Heyers in, McNabb won't be able to go down the field.

I'm sticking Rivers anyway, they're playing the Seahawks.

Whaddya think about my running backs this week:


RB - Marshawn Lynch or Steve Slaton (both recently aquired)
Flex- Knowshon Moreno

Bench:

CJ Spiller

Do you have any better wideouts? Move Moreno to the rb slot and try to fit in a receiver at flex... Lynch had a decent week, but would you trust Gailey making a commitment to that rb trio? Also, Slaton's probably going to get his return duties stripped soon, in favor of Jones.

So you're suggesting starting Pierre Thomas and Moreno at RB

my current wideouts are: Santana Moss and Eddie Royal (starting for the first time this week)

Braylon Edwards on the bench.

Hey 12th, Moreno's out for the week... see if you can pick up one the backups- either Buckhalter or Maroney (I'd take Maroney if he's there- Buck's not going to be able to handle the load). Not sure what the split will be this sunday, though- proceed with caution. But Indy's defense has been susceptible to the run, so far. Having said that, the Broncos are a passing team and may have to be playing catchup this weekend.

sit ryan matthews this week..try to pick up tolbert.

[tootergray34]

pick up buckhalter immediately if you can, moreno out 2 weeks. buckhalter is a great 3RB start this week, or if you work in a flex he's worth a shot.

[12thMan]

What Moreno out? Seriously?

[12thMan]

Okay Buckhalter and Rashad Jennings (JAX) is available. Jennings has more fantasy points this year. Which one...

[12thMan]

Thanks, grabbed Buckhalter. He was still avialable. I dropped Slaton. Hope he doesn't break out.

Moreno was a "stay away" in my leagues this year...injury concerns and really hasnt shown sh*t, last was ok but he had high expectations.

Marshall for Nannee trade went through...Revis is out this week as well, so Marshall def gets the start.

And someone please pass the coke
