If you didn't handcuff him with Ben Tate, you deserve to lose. His hamstring issues were well known and documented before the season ever started.

It will be a Sunday morning call - he will most likely play, but you should still check Sunday morning any way. Today is Friday in case you need a form of reference on when most D2D football injury decisions are made.

Auto draft. Not my choice (any of it). the commish, in typical slimeball fashion, picked up tate about eleven seconds after the draft was over (before he told us he ran it).

BTW, Thanks so much for the pleasant tone. Unfortuantely, I am going to the beach this weekend... you know... sand, sun, beers, fun... Thought I might knock this out real quick, if you don't mind.

Smart phone? You can check it Sunday morning right quick if you really care. It can change from now until Sunday morning. Kubiak has been known to do crazy things right as a gametime decision. It takes litterally 15 seconds to change it Sunday while you're at the beach or whatever.

Its not like Fantasy Football players are never doing something on Sundays. I have changed a lineup while climbing the side of a mountain before 😛

Don't mind AMDZen so much. He's a Bronco's fan. It explains everything.

That or he desperately needs to get laid. Which is what I'll probably be doing while he is furiously updating his fantasy roster on Sunday morning on his "smart" phone.

Who should I start?
TEAM 1
QB: Fitzpatrick
RB:McFadden
RB:Blount
WR:Miles Austin
WR: A. Johnson
TE: O. Daniels
Flex: Lloyd
K: Rackers
D: Chicago

Bench: Peyton, Fred Jackson, M. Bush, Cadillac, Greene, Sims Walker, Fred Davis, Cassell (Watson, Dickson, Fassano, Olsen, and Kendricks available on TE WW)

Fred Jackson for Blount? Cadillac in?

TEAM 2

QB: Matt Ryan
RB:AP
RB: MJD
WR:Welker
WR:Williams (TB)
Flex:Forte
K:Janikowski
D: Eagles

Bench: Fitzpatrick, Snelling, Spiller, Steve Johnson, J. Nelson, Britt, V. Davis, Hernandez,Chiefs (WW D includes Redkins, Cards, Broncs, Raiders, Bucs, Colts)

Do I sub in Johnson (@ Oak) or Britt (@Bal)? Oakland's pass D sucks, while there run D did good, albeit against a bad team. Baltimore I think will go up making Tennessee pass the ball more.

Both leagues are PPR

One more bump. I'm considering sitting MJD... how retarded am I?

I've got some decisions to make this week too. Non-PPR leagues.

League 1:
QB: Roethlisberger or Fitzpatrick - Probably Roethlisberger, but I'm a big believer in Fitz
RB: Frank Gore, Beanie Wells, or BenJarvus Green-Ellis as my #2? Beanie is projected highest

League 2:
QB: Matt Ryan or a free agent (Chad Henne, Alex Smtih, Mark Sanchez, Ryan Fitzpatrick) - I don't have a lot of faith in Ryan against the Eagles secondary.
WR: Larry Fitzgerald, Reggie Wayne, Percy Harvin, Julio Jones, Plaxico Burress
RB: Chris Johnson, Felix Jones, Cedric Benson, Reggie Bush, James Starks

I need to pick 2 WR, 2 RB, and a WR/RB flex from all of those guys. I'm thinking Fitzgerald, Wayne, CJ, Benson, and Bush?

I think I've decided to play Fitzpatrick instead of Matt Ryan. I just have no confidence in him this week.
 
i'm torn between cam newton and fitzpatrick this week. leaning towards fitzpatrick though due to the opponents both are playing.

(this is for a 2nd qb spot, rodgers is my starter)

League 1, I'd go with Roethlisberger as the starter (at home against SEA? He'll make up for last week) and Wells as your #2.

League 2, I'd go with Fitz here as your QB. WR - Fitz and Wayne. RB - Reggie Bush and Felix Jones. Starks could put up some points in your flex spot. I'm down on CJ because he is playing the Ravens and he had a terribad week last week.

Don't bench CJ, for the love of pete if you drafted a guy in the top 10 don't bench him.

Why not? What are you telling people who drafted Arian Foster right now?

Look, CJ didn't practice until the first week of the freaking season. He had a shitty week against Jacksonville who doesn't have the stoutest defense. Why would you want to play him in a situation where his team will 1) be playing a top 3 defense in the league and 2) they will be chasing the Ravens the whole game.

Arian Foster is an injury situation which is completely different, and I think he's playing this week anyway.

To quote an earlier post:
Some people (idiots) got cute and benched Ray Rice week 1. We all know how that turned out.
Click to expand...

Basically, if you bench CJ you deserve to lose this week.
 
some help please. I always suck at picking the right players as my starters. Who should I move up from bench this week?

QB Rodgers
RB Forte
RB Reggie Bush
WR Roddy White
WR Brandon Marshall
WR/TE Steve Smith
TE Dallas Clark
D Jets
K Billy Cundiff

Bench
Ryan Grant RB
Jonathan Stewart RB
Robert Meachem WR
Darren Sproles RB
Rashad Jennings RB*
Greg Olsen TE

Also I need to drop Jennings and pick up another player. Either RB or backup QB
These are the top RB and QBs free in my league right now

try to remember to say whether it's ppr or not, most people don't seem to mention that.

robot, if it's non-ppr then definitely tolbert. if ppr, it's close, and I'm not sure what i'd do.

BV, I think I'd go ward, especially in ppr. if it's non, grant gets a little boost but not sure it would be enough to play him. i'm not sure if he gets goal line work. if so it might be worth it
 
Should I play Benson vs DEN or Best vs KC?

Non PPR league. I'm tempted to just leave Best in since it always happens where I start a player who's hot from last week and they do nothing this week.
