I'm leaning towards Brown, especially because he gets involved in the passing game, but Barber got a lot of carries last week, and will continue to see goal-line work.

Dalton is going up against a really good Browns passing defense. But last week he put up big numbers against a very good (albeit Ray Lewis-less) Ravens D last week. By the eye test, Dalton just looks like a good quarterback. Bradford is playing a weak Cardinals passing defense (they've given up 250 yards passing in 7 of their 10 games this season). But Bradford has been really disappointing all year. Can I really trust him this week? What should I do?

I'm holding onto 4QBs, because Fitzpatrick hasn't been the must-start stud I had hoped he would be. Who do you like in these Week 10 matchups? Fitzpatrick @ DAL - Dallas is the worst passing D of the four, but Fitzpatrick's play against the Jets has me a little worried. Dalton vs. PIT - Tempted to start him, since I already have AJ Green in my lineup. Cutler vs. DET - Last time Cutler played the Lions, the D-Line was all over him and he had no time in the pocket whatsoever. Bradford @ CLE - Not a good matchup, but now has Lloyd and Clayton at his disposal.

I had a chance to pick up Ogbonnaya this week, but when I submitted my waiver claims, they were saying that Hillis was likely to play this week. Argh, frustrating. And I totally don't believe that Hillis has an injury of any kind - I think it's all about the contract dispute.

I'm in a pinch at RB this week (with McFadden hurt, Hightower on IR, and DeAngelo on bye). I'm going to start Jackie Battle. Who do I start at RB2? Ryan Grant (vs. MIN) should get 6-10 carries, but so far hasn't been able to do much of anything. I'm thinking that he's got more of a chance to bust a run or two and get me some yardage points. Marion Barber (@ PHI) is going up against the weak Eagles run D. He's had 9 points in each of the last two games, and has scored 3 TDs in the last four games. He's the goal line back and has a better chance to score a TD. Who do you think is my better bet for this week?

I'm hurting at RB. Do you think that LaDainian Tomlinson, Ryan Grant, or Joseph Addai are worth a pick-up? Should I drop Damian Williams to make room? I've been shopping Fred Davis around, since I already have Jimmy Graham. But the best offer I got was Delone Carter, and I feel like I can do better than that. Any advice?

Those 3 receivers are money - start them all. I'm not a huge fan of Shonn Greene, but I'd go with him in this scenario. Torain is too risky. The Redskins running game got shut down against the weak Eagles D last week. And they also will be starting a new QB in Beck, so it could get ugly.

I'm hurting at QB with Cutler, Bradford and Painter. Cutler looked great last week against Minnesota. Bradford should be helped out with the signing of Brandon Lloyd (assuming Bradford's high ankle sprain isn't serious). Painter has been solid, if not spectacular, the last three weeks, and he has a lot of talent surrounding him. Should I drop any of these QBs to pick up Carson Palmer? What do you think his value will be in Oakland? Will it take him a while to get acclimated to the offense and get in shape? We saw that his stats have been decreasing yearly - is he just plain washed up? Do you think Oakland will put most of the load on McFadden and Bush going foward?

Two of my receivers (AJ Green and Deion Branch) are on byes this week, so I have to decide between Malcom Floyd @ NYJ or Damian Williams vs. HOU. Revis will probably be matched up with Vincent Jackson (assuming he plays). But Jets are pretty good at keeping all of the opponents WRs in check. Cromartie has good size, and might be a good match-up with Floyd. Floyd is coming off a huge game (100yds and 1TD @ DEN). Williams is starting to emerge in Tennessee in the absence of Kenny Britt. He's scored TDs in the past two weeks. He'll be going up against a somewhat suspect (although improved) Texans secondary. Who do you guys like?

I'm watching Fantasy Football Now, and they say that Tim Hightower will play today, and will probably get the start. Should I go with DeAngelo Williams @ ATL or Hightower vs. PHI?

Any last minute advice? I still haven't totally made up my mind. I'm leaning towards Bradford.

Whoops, my bad. I don't think that's the first time that's happened to me either, haha. Even though Kolb hasn't been quite as good as some people had hoped, he still gets Fitz a lot of looks (averaging around 9 targets a game). And he's definitely one of the most talented and polished receivers in all the game. Fitz and Graham are the two best players in the trade. That side definitely has the better of the deal.

Ward. Until the Bears O Line can show that they can give Cutler at least a little time to plant his feet and read defenses, then Knox is not a viable fantasy option. The guy is explosive and dynamic, but unfortunately they can't get the ball in his hands. Ward is a safer bet, and it seems like they're trying to get him involved more in the offense as of late.

I can't believe anybody would say Jordy Nelson over Earnest Graham! Last week, Rodgers completed passes to 12 different receivers. That's bad news for Packers fantasy owners (besides Rodgers). James Jones has been more involved in the offense lately, and I don't think Nelson is any better than Rodgers' 4th option. Jordy could very easily put up a goose egg. Graham is guaranteed to get you some decent points this week. He'll get almost all of the carries, and he's Freeman's favorite option in the passing game as well. Graham all the way!!

Jimmy Graham is the best player in that trade. He has become Brees #1 target and is an absolute matchup nightmare. He's the #1 fantasy TE. Despite a so-so past two weeks, I think Fitzpatrick will be a Top 6-8 QB going forward. On the other side, I don't think Best will be able to replicate his Week 5 performance again, or at least not on a steady basis. That offense revolves around the passing game. Olsen is a nice red zone target, but doesn't get a ton of yards. Colston is the wild card here. With Graham and Sproles taking away a lot of his targets, I'm not sure if he'll ever be a 1000-yard receiver again. I think the Fitz/Graham side gets the better of the deal.
