Fantasy Tips

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.

Hmmm, do you guys have short rosters? Who else do are your receivers?

Is your league a 10 or 12 team league? I doubt it, but see if Demaryius Thomas is still available... if not, look at a sleeper like Louis Murphy to fill out your flex. He's better in a pinch against that AZ secondary... moreso than Lynch or Slaton.

So Murphy is still out there.

Of the three who would you cut to make room:

Slaton
Lynch
CJ Spiller

Nevermind, I just dropped an extra defender that I didn't need. I added Murph, thanks.

Slaton... he's not getting enough carries to justify a roster spot- and like i said before, his return duties are about to go to Jones. I'd keep Lynch just to see if he gets traded to GB- in which case, you're roses. And that would definitely help out Spiller (who you're going to want to hold on to because a talent like that will eventually show up this season).

Also keep Keiland Williams on your watch list. Portis will eventually get hurt this season, just off the sheer way he plays. Keiland can catch passes out of the backfield and he'd be instant offense once he gets burn.

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.
