** OFFICIAL: Who To Start Thread 2012 **

Id definitely put in the ravens defense, especially coming off a bye week. I'd consider starting Freeman over Vick, freeman has been great the last 3 to 4 games. Also I would consider Julio over Martin. The Dallas game is going to be high scoring in my eyes and I don't like HBs after long flights.

 

Actually roll with Martin, long week and Oakland sucks. Consider freeman though and definitely the ravens.

 

Damn 305, that's a helluva squad.

 

Yahoo league (ppr)

Log jam at WR

Start 3.

R.Wayne
V.Cruz
A.Johnson
B.Marshall

Easy to bench the wrong guy with that group. AJ off bye vs Buffalo is strong, but right now he's on my bench. Thoughts?

 

In ESPN struggling with putting in either Austin or Cobb.

 

Been offered Roddy White for R.Cobb and 49er defense ....

Non ppr league. Thoughts?

 

should I bench Hakeem Nicks for Brian Hartline this week?

Anyone who has Nicks feels my pain...

 

What's your current defense and if return yards don't count, I would probly do it.

 

I have Nicks on one of my teams. Talk about a major disappointment so far.

 

A kid in my league needs a RB for this week and I have Redman on my bench. I'm thinkin about trading Hakeem and Redman for Dez Bryant, Should I do this?

 

???
Why don't you just take his lunch money and tell him to give you Dez for Redman and like it or you'll stomp him like a bug. ??

 

Just traded...

Eli, Cobb, D. Martin

For

Matt Ryan, green Ellis, m. Wallace

Leaving me with C. Johnson n J Charles as must starts every week. But I got my Julio Ryan combo I want for playoffs.

 

Big week for me. I have most of my line-up set just need help with 2 positions:

Flex position: I have Julio Jones and Percy Harvin as my starting WR and currently I have Jordy Nelson as my Flex, but he missed last week and missed every practice this week. They are calling him a game-time decision, but I have a feeling they sit him considering next week is their bye week. To fill the position I could start Cecil Shorts (WR Jacksonville) or Jonathan Dwyer (HB Pittsburg). Shorts has put up pretty good numbers, but I feel weary of starting him and Dwyer is injured. The two best FA RBs are Issac Redman and Pierre Thomas. Who would you start?

LB: Chad Greenway vs. Clay Matthews. These two are hard to choose between because of the match-up and player types. Matthews averages 8.9 points per game (he is usually boom or bust because he gets a lot of sacks and little tackles), he faces the bad Arizona OL. On the other hand Greenway averages 11.5 (usually more consistent because he gets lots of tackles and few sacks). He faces the run heavy Seahawks... Who would you start?

Thanks guys!

 

redman

 

Start Redman and Greenway. They are the safer bets to me.

 

Are your playoffs during week 17 by any chance, numbnuts?

 

i dropped shorts the other day at fin-o's mom's request.

 

No. Week 14-15-16

I like Atlantas match ups during that stretch...

 

just making sure you weren't as dumb as I thought you were.

 

Any thoughts?

Vincent Jackson vs Oakland
or
Jordy Nelson vs Arizona

 

Jordy Nelson or Issac Redman?

 

I'd be tempted to go with Jackson due to the Packers multitude of WRs and Nelsons injury. I am a bit jaded though because I also have Nelson.

 

Yeah. Not sure how much the injury will affect his production. We all saw what Hartline did to the Cardinals though.

 

I think you should sign another FA QB and then make a decision from there.

 

Luck or Freeman

 

Freeman.

 

Non ppr

Green Ellis or Austin as Flex?

 

I'd go with Freeman's hot hand, too. So obviously Luck will have the better week.

 

Pick 3

DeSean Jackson (DAL)
Stevie Johnson (@NE)
Mike Williams (SD)
Lance Moore (ATL)
Brian Hartline (TEN)

 

I'd be tempted to go with Williams, Hartline, Johnson

 

Jackson
Williams
Stevie

Mike W has been on fire and the other 2 are a big play waiting to happen. Not to mention Hartline may lose targets since we are "rededicated" to the run this week.

 

goin' down this weekend Fin-ooo

 

goin' down is nothing new for Fin-Oops. You just made his day with that comment. Should probably clarify your intentions though.

 

I have Eli and he has been doin crap the last 3 weeks, he's playin Cincinnati and I need a win so im thinking about benching him for Ryan Fitzpatrick against NE. What do you guys think?

 

Tough one.

Eli is playing a bad defense himself in Cinncy...and his brother undoubtedly spoke to him on the phone this week about some of the Bengals looks and tendencies. BUT, the Bengals watched Pitt committ itself to the run and beat the NYG. I think Cinncy TRIES the same thing.

I'd go Fitz.
