Ben Tate v. STL or Mendenhall v. SF?

I think Foster & Tate could have a field day against STL's defense, especially coming off of Schaub's all star performances - they might look to the running game to get things back on track.

Andre Ellington + the SF matchup has me wary of Mendenhall's situation, though he is the starter, got 15+ carries last week, goal line carries, and a TD.

Thoughts? PPR league by the way.

Mendenhall. No matter how good San Fran plays, the RBs will still get a lot of touches and always have a chance at breaking one or catching a pass for a TD. Tate may be the best back up RB in the NFL, but St. Louis's defense is worse against the pass than run and Foster will have a huge game. Tate will probably have 40 yards or so.

Tate has been terrible. I played him the week that Bush was hurt. He has only had one solid week which was week 2. Other than that he isn't worth much.
I drafted him late just in case foster was injured. I should have drafted Bell in retro spec considering bush is my #1. Same could be said when I blew my first pick on Spiller (I picked 10 and then 4 spots later which netted Dez Bryant). I should have drafted Fred jackson.

i feel your pain on spiller, i took him 5th overall in one money league. i was able to handcuff jackson in the 12th (140th overall) - probably the steal of the draft.

in my other money league, i'm trying to trade for a top rb. i don't want to offer too much because i am very happy w my roster and it's no sweat if i'm not able to trade for that top rb.

please take a peek at my roster below and let me know what you would want in return for your top rb. *brees, perterson, and graham are not on the table. anyone else can be had.

QB Drew Brees, NO*QB
RB Adrian Peterson, Min*RB
RB Fred Jackson, Buf*RB
WR Wes Welker, Den*WR
WR Reggie Wayne, Ind*WR
TE Jimmy Graham, NO*TE
FLEX DeSean Jackson, Phi*WR
D/ST Colts D/ST*D/ST
K Blair Walsh, Min*K
Bench DeAngelo Williams, Car*RB
Bench Steve Smith, Car*WR
Bench Shane Vereen*, NE*RB**O
Bench Mike Williams, TB*WR**Q
Bench Jordan Reed, Wsh*TE**P
Bench Josh Gordon, Cle*WR
Bench Jay Cutler, Chi*QB

It would take alot for me to ditch Reggie Bush, he has been my top guy. None of my other backs have been anything close.

I was able to pull McFadden out of the FA market when someone let him go due to injury and I look at him as a guy who may be able to start for me after the Raiders bye.

I am stacked at WR with H Nicks, D Bryant, Eric Decker, Justin Blackmon, as my four go to guys now. with Nate Washington, Greg Jennings, also on my team.

QB is M Ryan and Flacco this week due to the ATL bye.

TEs are Gates and Jordan Cameron (a couple of weeks ago I started both with Gates as my Flex)worked out well as I hold the top scoring week with that lineup.

I would consider a Jackson/Williams or maybe even Josh Gordon as a possibility to get Bush from me, but I would be thinking long and hard before I pulled the trigger on my top RB.

Have not tried fan duel OKI but they pump the shit out of it on NFL Sirius radio. lol

[skinsfaninok]

I hear all of the adds so it must be legit?

[GridIron26]

I'm unsure of whom to start in WR and WR/RB slots. Any suggestion? First section is my starting list.

QB Russell Wilson
RB Matt Forte
RB Knowshon Moreno
WR Brandon Marshall
WR Josh Gordon
TE Julius Thomas
WR/RB Steve Smith


Colin Kaepernick
Steven Jackson
C.J. Spiller
Keenan Allen
Alshon Jeffery
Kenbrell Thompkins

i'd probably go w spiller over steve smith

[mooby]

Alshon Jeffery would probably work better than Steve Smith too, Steve Smith hasn't had a good season and Jeffery has been hot the last couple weeks.

On a side note thank goodness I picked up Fred Jackson in the later rounds, I thought he would be an afterthought but he's been one of my consistent guys.

Brady or Cutler?

Considering the Giants are garbage this year, I'd expect Cutler to light them up.

Brady is a little more of a gamble seeing as the Saints are 5-0 and he stunk last week against the Bengals.
