While I hope my Vikes will shut him down, I would go with Driver.

Here's a more complete list of the decisions I need to make:

1 QB: Derek Anderson, Aaron Rodgers
2 RB: Westbrook (obviously), Larry Johnson, Darren McFadden, Kevin Smith
3 WR: T.J. Housh, Santonio Holmes, Dwayne Bowe, Donald Driver, DeSean Jackson

1. D.Anderson - Dallas has really good run defense, Browns will have to throw.
2. RB: Westbrook, McFadden - I still don't trust the Chiefs O-line. Take that big run chance with McFad
3. WR: Bowe or DeSean - All Croyle did last year was throw to Bowe although I heard he's going to try and find others. McNabb has no weapons at wide receiver since Curtis is injured - Jackson is the only deep threat (passing and returning).

1. QB: It's Monday night. The Vikes still have done nothing to improve the secondary. I'd go with Rodgers.

2. LJ is starting, nuff said.

3. I'll go with TJ, and Bowe

anyone got a spot for 1 more in FF with a draft this week? i'm only in 1 league this year, and it's a keeper league with 16 teams. not fun.

 

[TheInternet1980]

Threw some money down on a couple of cbs leagues this year...here's how my rosters came out looking...

Team #1

Manning, Peyton
Jacobs, Brandon
Johnson, Chris
Burress, Plaxico
Owens, Terrell
Chambers, Chris
Winslow, Kellen
Dawson, Phil
Bears DST

Anderson, Derek
Warner, Kurt
Royal, Edde
Watson, Benjamin
Titans DST

Team #2

Garrard, David
Graham, Earnest
Lynch, Marshawn
Chambers, Chris
Colston, Marques
Ginn Jr., Ted
Cooley, Chris
Dawson, Phil
Patriots DST

Palmer, Carson
Rivers, Philip
Royal, Eddie
Olsen, Greg
Jaguars DST

Any suggestions on moves I can make?

I'm planning on moving Peyton Manning in League #1, for a good #2 RB and a high end #3/low-end #2 WR. In League #2, I need to move Palmer, and the Jags DST for an adequate 3rd WR/RB.

Peyton Manning for Joseph Addai, Jason Campbell, and Antonio Gates?
I got Dallas Clark who's a pretty good TE already. I really want addai, but peytons always puts up good numbers too

Don't do it. VY is injured, and Campbell isn't a reliable starter. Manning will get you more points most weeks than Addai + Gates. On top of that you have the Manning/Clark combo effect.

kk thx

 

[hdeck]

vy isn't listed as injured on espn.

 

[TheInternet1980]

http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/...ss&source=NFLHeadlines

Listed as questionable for the Opener.

VY has a hard enough time throwing the ball accurately, without any hand trauma.

 

[LordSnailz]

Which QB should I start?
Philip Rivers @ CAR or Kurt Warner @ SF.

I know, both are not that great, but I don't have that much of a choice. Free agents available are Chad Pennington or Sage Rosenfels.

 

[weeber]

In my first FF league, so I'm learning as I go.

I've got Anthony Gonzalez (Ind) in a RB/WR spot, and I'm wondering if I should replace him with Kenny Watson (Cin) who I have on the bench. The theory being that Watson will see more playing time now that Rudi Johson is gone and as long as Harrison, Wayne, and Adai are healthy, Gonzalez my not see the ball much. According to ESPN projections, Gonzalez is only looking at 2 pts, while Watson is going for 11! From that, it would be a no-brainer, but are the ESPN projections even worth looking at?

My other starting running backs are Frank Gore and Laurence Maroney and my other WRs are Braylon Edwards, Joey Galloway, and Santonio Holmes if it matters.

 

[vi edit]

Had my keeper league draft last night:

Here's my '07 Keepers:

RB: Larry Johnson
RB: Brandon Jacobs
WR1: Anquan Boldin

-- Drafted the following --

QB: Drew Brees
WR2: Greg Jennings
WR3: Calvin Johnson
TE: Veron Davis
Def: Dallas
K: Kaeding

Bench:
RB: Earnest Graham
RB: Kevin Smith
RB: Kevin Jones

WR: Santana Moss
WR: Donte Stallworth
WR: Kevin Walter
QB: Eli Manning
Def: Arizona
----------------------------------

I had 2nd pick in a 10 team snake draft. The guy before me grabbed Gore leaving me some tough choices...grab the best QB still on the board or a WR. I went for Brees and then waited almost 20 picks for the next ones to come around. I'm majorly weak at TE...but oh well.

Warner, based on matchup.

Carolina's D is still no slouch. SF on the other hand :disgust:

 

[Sheepathon]

My roster in a 12-person league:

Drew Brees (NO)
LT (SD)
Ryan Grant (GB)
Kevin Smith (Det)
Andre Johnson (Hou)
Kevin Walter (Hou)
Tony Gonzalez (KC)
Vikings D/ST (Min)
Rob Bironas (Ten)

bench:
Marvin Marrison (Ind)
Sammy Morris (NE)
Chris Johnson (Ten)
Justin Gage (Ten)
Devin Hester (Chi)
DJ Hackett (Car)
J.T. O'Sullivan (SF)

-Kevin Walter is the 2nd WR option behind Andre Johnson on the depth chart, and Marvin Harrison is the #2 option behind Reggie Wayne. Walter is projected for more fantasy points than Marvin Harrison in week 1, but isn't there some general rule that you don't play the #1 and #2 receivers from the same team? Should I start Kevin Walter or Marvin Harrison?
-Bironas is questionable for the first game, should I trade him for another kicker that is guaranteed healthy?
-Chris Johnson has looked awesome in preseason, but should I gamble on him as a week 1 starter?

 

[TheInternet1980]

Kevin Walter? Isn't Owen Daniels Shaub's 2nd look anyway? Definitely start Harrison over Kevin Waler.

Chris Johnson is wait and see, if you go back a page, you'll see he's my #2 RB in one of my leagues. I'm not pleased with that prospect to be honest. Bench him until you see how much he's really splitting time with Lendale White. If he's getting 50%+ carries a game, and has a good matchup, he's worth a start.

 

[JS80]

Cutler, Jay QB DEN
Grant, Ryan RB GB
Tomlinson, LaDainian RB SD
Colston, Marques WR NO
Moss, Santana WR WAS
Welker, Wes WR NE
Cooley, Chris TE WAS
Folk, Nick K DAL @CLE
Cowboys DST @CLE

Reserve:
Campbell, Jason QB WAS
Bush, Reggie RB NO
Morris, Maurice RB SEA
Jackson, DeSean WR PHI
Smith, L.J. TE PHI

 

[Sheepathon]

Is it normal to frequently drop your D/ST to free agency and pick up any available d/st that looks like it has a better matchup for the week?

Also, is it considered foolish to have a D/ST that is playing against multiple starters on your team? e.g. using Vikings D/ST when you also have Aaron Rodgers & Ryan Grant

 

[oddyager]

Well I'm not overly pleased but I think I made out okay being the 11th pick out of a 12-man league...

QB P. Manning
WR S. Holmes
WR R. White
RB M. Lynch
RB D. McFadden
TE C. Cooley
W/R B. Berrian
K S. Graham
DE San Diego

BN J. Cutler
BN D. Stallworth
BN T. Scheffler
BN B. Johnson
BN D. Patten
BN K. Curtis

I'm actually in need of a backup back. Which of those WRs should I drop for Rudi Johnson (he's prob about the best of the bunch in the FA list). Curtis is hurt but I think he'll have value once he returns back in mid season or so. I think Stallworth is the odd man out of the 3 or Patten...

 

[Pollock]

Are there any more open (free) ATOT leagues?
