    Tons of questions around this guy. I still have him as a keeper on my team bc I don't think he's going to be suspended a long time, if at all.

    How do you think he does with Orton, McDaniels, coming off surgery, competing with Royal and Gaffney, etc. etc.?

    I'll be shying away from Marshall this year unless there's really no better option. Just too many questions this year and hell, I drafted Marshall last year with all his baggage. Orton <<<<<<<<<< Cutler IMO and Marshall will suffer for it.

    Unless I want to keep Rivers or Cotchery instead, I don't really have a choice on Marshall. I'd try to trade him but I don't think I'd get great value.

    The league is PPR so I don't think his numbers will fall off a cliff. I think he just won't be catching bombs like he was when Cutler was there. Den will probably keep it much shorter.

    The only thing that somewhat encourages me is that his hip was messed up all last season and he was still that effective. He got surgery on it and has already started running so that's cause for a little optimism. That, and the fact that he wasn't suspended before the draft. Plus Matt Jones isn't going to be either. So maybe he'll get off easy.

    I do like Rivers if the league is starved for QB's. Else, you're up against a wall.

    Being PPR should help a bit but I just don't see him notching a number even close to his last two years. McDaniels will want to spread it around and he's not shy towards dumping it to TE's instead. I would also keep an eye on his contract displeasure (still on his rookie salary and no extension on the near horizon). If he even hints at any kind of holdout, it'll be another notch down for him.

    Nope, all QBs available aside from Brady and Manning.

    I figured he'd also take over the Randy Moss role in that offense as well. Can't say that doesn't sound good. As long as their D is ****ty.

    So far, no hold out. His agent said they have no intention of that but who knows.

    Drafting Moreno is also an interesting option to me. My league is certainly RB starved.
