Fantasy Football Advice Thread

McFadden has just been such a dissappointment this yr. Luckily I've got by each week with a Win, despite his horrid play. Maybe this week he breaks out vs. a Hou D that's given up the most fantasy pts to rb's? Then again, Chester Taylor is prolly a solid 10 pts for me. Hmmmm...

Like you said, Houston has one of the worst D in the league. I don't think it would be too difficult for him to put up 10 in ppr.

Here's my question:

3rd flex position player, non PPR league.

Ahmad Bradshaw - @KC but probable with a foot injury, splitting carries
Steve Smith (NYG) - @ KC
Donald Brown - Sea still splitting carries

I'd go with Smith.

Thanks, he's the guy I have in there right now but I keep questioning my decision.

I'd go with Smith. No question.

That Rams D is somewhere around 28th against the run. I'm sold on starting Coffee.

I actually have to start Shaun Hill in another league too.

Yeah my wife actually just picked up Coffee and is starting him this week. Smart woman.
Additionally, I've got Vernon Davis starting this week - I went with him over Shockey, so hopefully that works out well.

IDK if you guys are quick enough to awnser this in 9 minutes but what would you do?
PPR League:
Wes Welker injured vs the Ravens
or
Brandon Marshall vs Dallas

Marshall for sure.

I benched Colston for Sims-Walker.

Sime-Walker has 5 rec for 62 with 2 Tds.

I have maaarbles.

Mcfadden is being dropped tomorrow. His piss poor play and performance has cost me a win this week. Lost by 8. He wont tempt me anymore..

Would you start LT or Sproles tonight? Doesnt really matter, I already won. But would like to rack up some points.

I'd go Sproles just for the screen passes.

That's what I'm doing. Figure between the few carries/catches he'll get combined with the potential return yards make him more of a sure thing at this point.

Would you trade away Roddy White for Brian Westbrook? I'm hearin Westbrook is healthy again and is a dangerous threat for rec. and rushing. It is a PPR league. White is buggin' me this yr for some reason. It seems Gonzalez is takin alot of looks away, and if Turner gets hot they just keep feeding him. I can do without White and could use Westbrook. I think it's a gamble but could payout IF he can stay healthy rest of yr.

What you guys/gals think?

I wanted to thank you for the advice since it was obviously very good. I was leaning toward Smith but you helped me stop second guessing myself.

And barring Aaron Rodgers and Ryan Grant out scoring AP by 26 plus points I should have a win this week.

that is a tough call.

what are you left with at WR without White? and how bad is your RB situation?

Pick the best matchup for each.

PPR = YES

QB #1:
Eli Manning vs Oakland (Rush D: 26th, Pass D: 13th)
Kurt Warner vs Houston (Rush D: 29th, Pass D: 10th)

RB #2:
Glen Coffee vs Atlanta (Rush D: 25th, Pass D: 27th)
Tim Hightower vs Houston (Rush D: 29th, Pass D: 10th)
Beanie Wells vs Houston (Rush D: 29th, Pass D: 10th)
Jonathan Stewart vs Washington (Rush D: 21st, Pass D: 5th)
LeSean McCoy vs Tampa Bay (Rush D: 30th, Pass D: 18th)
Frank Gore vs Life (Rush D: 1st, Pass D: 1st)

Warner in what should be a shootout. Eli won't be 100% if he plays.

McCoy against TB if Westbrook is out. Otherwise Coffee.

I would be left with Houshmanzadeh, Cotchery, Garcon, Holt and Massaquoi.

RB's would then be Westbrook, Ronnie Brown, Gore, Coffee, Chester Taylor, and I'm in line for Harrison off waivers tomorrow.

one more thing, how many do you start at wr and rb?

Well, it's kinda wacky but we have 3 wr spots, 2 rb spots, a wr/te flex, and a wr/rb flex spot.

do it.

Get this, I proposed the trade to him and he told me in a text earlier today it was a "done deal", his words. Well, he rejected it just now, lol. Thanks for your advice though.
