    RB Help

    I currently have the following RBs roster in a 12 team PPR league. Chris Carson Josh Jacobs Tevin Coleman Adrian Peterson Rex Burkhead Considering picking up Rashaad Penny as a handcuff to Carson and dropping Burkhead. I am not as down on Burkhead as most experts are as he seems to take advantage of the limited opportunities he gets, but that seems to be the consensus drop. In Week 3, I don't know about Jacobs and the other matchups are not so good. Mostert is also out there. We have 2 RB, 2 WR, and 2 FLEX positions, which I have routinely been using WRs as my WRs are pretty solid: Julio Jones, Lockett, John Brown, Mike Williams, Curtis Samuel, Sterling Shephard, and McLaurin. Samuel has been so-so, but that has had more to do with Cam's play. I liked what I saw of his targets in the last game. So while I COULD drop a WR, I think it should be a RB....if at all.
  2. Because of our commissioner's ineptitude, I only have 6 bench spots with nine starting positions. Because of this, people are constantly adding and dropping. I have four receivers currently: Moss, Owens, Burleson, and Royal. We start 3. I have 5 RB's: Chris Johnson, Ronnie Brown, Kevin Smith, Jonathon Stewart, and Leon Washington. We start 2. I just picked up Washington as he is getting equal carries to Thomas Jones. I realize I should only have 5 RB's, but I feel these guys have more talent than the backup WR's. Because of indecision, I missed out on Manningham, Walker (Jacksonville), Knox (Chicago) and others. I am considering picking up Laurent Robinson as the Rams will need to throw a bunch and he seems to be consistent. Should I drop Royal or an RB? About the only other position I would be willing to make a drop is on DEF where I am keeping two: Pitt (who I drafted but just don't seem the same without Troy P) and Green Bay who produced even though they gave up points. There is also the possibility of a trade, but people in this league rarely do it, which stinks. Could try a RB for a WR. I could maybe wait another week and see if stock continues to improve on RB. Thanks in advance for your advice!

    OK-Gimme your best pick....

    I'm gonna disagree and say Jones. Jacksonville always plays Indy tough, even though they haven't looked very good. It's true Addai hasn't done much against some good run defense, but Jones averaged over 4 yards a carry against a very stingy New England run defense. About the only thing I like more about Addai is they are at home. Let's just say this one is not a no-brainer, which is probably why you ask. Good luck to you, whatever your decision.
  4. I currently have Braylon Edwards, Chad Johnson, J. Cotchery, Eddie Royal and Isaac Bruce on my team. I am frustrated with Edwards and Johnson's production. I am considering a trade for Lee Evans for Johnson. Do I do it? I just can't see the Bengals going anywhere this year. Or is it Edwards I should part with, though I think he has a better chance of coming out of the slump.

    Simple Question

    Tough one, but I think I like Johnson at Washington. I see Heap catching the bulk of the Batimores passes as they will be running the ball a lot. But HOU has no real rusher and Carr's passer rating is better. It's Johnson time. Here is mine: http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...howtopic=236180

    Pick my #2 RB

    No doubt......Taylor. I have Williams and I am going to wait until he can show me a good game. JAX run defense is stiff. On the other hand, I read today that Taylor does very well against Indy in the dome. Please answer mine if you can. Thanks. http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...howtopic=236180

    Got an offer to give up Gore

    Stick with Gore. Essentially giving up Chambers for Boldin is not wise at this point in the season. I agree that you should stand pat. http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...howtopic=236180

    Which WR's for Week 3?

    I have: R. Wayne Horn Toomer Williamson Keyshawn Johnson Please pick 3 (also in Free Agency: Braylon Edwards, Rod Smith, Chris Henry, Wilford) Note: For the life of me, I can't figure out why Toomer doesn't get more credit. He has a Manning passing to him and two good games. I don't think the matchup against Seattle is bad either because I picture a shootout.

    Pick up Reggie Williams?

    I think I really see Reggie Williams blossoming more as the year goes on. His YPC isn't great, but TD's could be. Looked great against Pittsburgh. But consider my present WR corps, which is my team's weakness: R. Wayne J. Horn Keyshawn Johnson Troy Williamson Amani Toomer Would you pick up Williams and throw one of these guys out? I also considered throwing away Ben Watson since I have Todd Heap, but I like have a good backup to Heap, or one that could eventually do better than Heap.

    Trade going down

    It's too early in the season to judge this as unfair. Caddy has lots of potential still, as does Williams. And Maroney has been splitting. If you get a chance, help me out with this one: http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...howtopic=234781

    R.Moss & T.Jones for C.Johnson & Addai

    I would for sure. You have good starting RB's and Johnson is in a much better situation than Moss. Addai could get better as the season goes on. On the other hand, Benson could cut into Jones's production.

    Who to Start...RB, WR, TE

    At RB, I want to start Warrick Dunn or Jamal Lewis in place of Carnell Williams, whose health is questionable. Dunn looks great, but Lewis might be a good match against Oakland. At WR, I have Chad Johnson (locked), Randy Moss, Roy Williams, and Coles. I am thinking Coles and Williams, but it's hard to seat Moss. At TE.....Heap or Watson? Both look promising. Thanks in advance for your advice.

    Info on QB Touchdowns

    I am looking to find the average length of a TD pass (ex. 15 yards). I am trying to set up QB TD points based on the length of the TD pass. I realize a lot of the time it has to do with the receiver getting yards after the catch, but not all the time. Since longer throws tend to have a higher interception rate, I figured I would try this. Does anyone know a website where I can find out more about a QB's average TD pass, etc.?
