If active, yes. Ertz as my other option and don't want that...lol

Bradshaw @ Phili Hightower vs Car Fargas @ SD

Portis or Mendenhall?

Whether it is a fair trade or not it does not seem to be that uneven where it would require a commish intervention.

Not so sure, NE may run the score up to 100-0 before they stop throwing and start running!

Mendenhall back at practice, expects to play Sunday By Joe Starkey TRIBUNE-REVIEW Friday, October 16, 2009 Steelers running back Rashard Mendenhall, who missed practice Thursday because of illness, returned today and was a full participant. Mendenhall expects to play Sunday against the Cleveland Browns, but does not know how playing time will be split between him and Willie Parker, who is expected to return after missing the past two games with turf foe. "It all depends on what's going on, who's hot, play selection," Mendenhall said. "I won't really know until game time." Mendenhall gained 242 yards in his two starts. Would he be disappointed if he didn't start Sunday? "Not at all," he said. "It really doesn't matter, I don't think. However this game's played, I'm sure we're both going to be out there."

Not much new but an update for today, looking shady for Mendenhall: Steelers' Mendenhall has illness that puts his status in doubt By Scott Brown TRIBUNE-REVIEW Friday, October 16, 2009 Mendenhall's illness puts his status in doubt The Steelers sent running back Rashard Mendenhall home Thursday because of an illness, putting into question how much he will be able to play Sunday against the visiting Browns. Mendenhall has started the past two games for the injured Willie Parker (turf toe) and rushed for 242 yards and three touchdowns. If the illness is a lingering one and limits Mendenhall in the 1 p.m. game, the Steelers will probably be able to lean on Parker. Parker was a full participant in drills again yesterday. Said offensive coordinator Bruce Arians: "He's looked real good in practice." Arians said if both Parker and Mendenhall are close to full strength Sunday, it will be a game-time decision as to how the Steelers use them in the backfield. "I'd like to have both of them out there," Arians said. Parker has been wearing a specially-designed shoe that limits the movement of his injured toe. The sixth-year veteran has rushed for 159 yards this season but is only averaging 3.1 yards per carry. "Aaron's a guy, he just doesn't get blocked. But we've got good depth on the defensive line, and I know those guys will step in and do a good job. There's only one Aaron Smith, but I think we'll function very well with the guys we've got." — Defensive coordinator ###### LeBeau on replacing Aaron Smith, who sustained a season-ending shoulder injury, at left defensive end.

Yeah I am trying to decide on weather to start Steve Smith (NYG) or Housh. We ger 2 PPR.

Guess who he names the starter will be key!!!

Most of the reports of now still have Mendenhall getting the start and majority of the carries. Are most people buying this? You guys think Mendenhall is going to get the bulk of the carries with FWP back? Just curious what other Mendenhall owners are doing.

Wow

Thank you Derek Anderson. Dropped Palmer to play Anderson for a Rodgers bye this week. Cost me th win. Yet another reason I question my ability to run a fantasy football team. Anyone know if there is some like fantasy eating or beer drinking? I know it does not make much sense but I know I could excel at those type of things!!

I agree quick, something is for sure not right here. We have been using CBS for years and I also run Hockey through CBS as a commish. You have alot of power to get away with alot if you wanted too. I would call him out as well.

Carson Palmer. Derek Anderson is on WW. Thinking of dropping and playing Anderson vs BUFF instead of Palmer vs BALT, however Rivers threw for over 400 yds on BALT a few weeks ago. Kind of torn on what to do.

Thinking they will need to pass all day. Benson is not going to get much yardage on that D. Even more so if he happen not to play.

you like anderson better than palmer? he definitly has a better match up

I am struggling with the samething. Rodgers on a bye. I have Palmer as my back up and have Anderson and Edwards on WW. I am leaning towards T. Edwards since the B. Edwards trade (even though he was not doing anything, he still was drawing the oppositions top defender).

Which match up looks beter to you? C. Palmer @ BAL D. Anderson @ BUF

This is tough. You have depth at WR and it would help if he were throwing in another WR in the deal as well. I would counter and try to hold onto maybe one of your WR. http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...howtopic=352966

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- New York Giants backup halfback Ahmad Bradshaw went to practice wearing a boot on his right foot Wednesday. Coach Tom Coughlin said Bradshaw aggravated an old ankle injury and sprained his foot while rushing for 104 yards in a win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers last weekend. Bradshaw did not practice Wednesday. Coughlin said the boot is a precaution and he expects Bradshaw to play this weekend when the Giants (3-0) face the Chiefs (0-3) in Kansas City. Giants starting halfback Brandon Jacobs rushed for 92 yards against the winless Bucs. Third-string back Gartrell Johnson ran for 23 yards on six carries. New York rushed for 226 yards against Tampa Bay.

Bradshaw's ankle/foot hurting Updated 9/30/2009 Ahmad Bradshaw, RB NYG News: Giants RB Ahmad Bradshaw watched practice wearing a boot on his right foot Wednesday. He did not participate in the workout, but head coach Tom Coughlin said that the boot is precautionary and that he expects Bradshaw to play in Week 4 at the Chiefs. Coughlin also said Bradshaw aggravated an old ankle injury and sprained his foot while rushing for 104 yards in a win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers last weekend. Analysis: We'll keep tabs on Bradshaw for you this week and let you know the latest when we get it. Obviously, if he continues to miss practice, you shouldn't count on him for Week 4 even though he's got a solid matchup against a beleaguered Chiefs defense. If he practices later in the week, then he should be fine. Gartrell Johnson would likely see added reps if Bradshaw missed the game.

Marion Barber, RB DAL News: Cowboys head coach Wade Phillips said Tuesday that RB Marion Barber is on the mend from a strained quad but is still having some swelling issues. Phillips said the initial prognosis on Barber's injury was that it was a 10-day to two-week recovery, so he may or may not be ready to play against the Broncos in Week 4. Barber has been receiving treatment daily on the quad. Analysis: We might have to wait until Friday to get an idea of Barber's status for Week 4, but for now figure to have him out of Fantasy lineups. With him hobbled and RB Felix Jones likely to miss Week 4 with a sprained PCL, we might see Tashard Choice see the majority of carries for the Cowboys against the Broncos. We'll keep you posted on what's happening in the Cowboys' backfield this week.

Trying to decide if he really has ANY value anymore since he has played 2 of the worst Defenses and has not come through.

If he cannot run on TB this week, he is gone from my team. Strike 3 (STL, DET, TB)!!!

Denver and S.F.
