Wheaties 0 Posted August 31, 2008 . . . Drew Brees? I drafted Warner in the last round figuring he would supplant Leinart as the starter at some point. It was just late round speculation since I had already drafted Drew Brees and Aaron Rodgers earlier. Just didn't want a potential QB1 sitting there as a free agent for someone else to sign. Anyway, that now leaves me with an interesting decision for Week 1. Scoring System 30 yards passing = 1 point 10 yards rushing = 1 point 10 yards receiving = 1 point All TD's = 6 points INT = Minus 2 points Fumble = Minus 2 points QB - Need 1 Drew Brees (vs TB) - Tough defense in a divisional matchup Kurt Warner (at SF) - He lit them up for 484 yards and 2 TD's in a single game last year Aaron Rodgers (vs MIN) - Not really being considered RB - Need 1 Jamal Lewis (vs DAL) - Nursing hammy injury... will watch weekly practice/injury reports Earnest Graham (at NO) - He did well against them last year... full workload this year? Lendale White (vs JAX) - Very tough matchup... may split carries WR - Need 1 Kellen Winslow (vs DAL) - Touch matchup... Derek Anderson status unknown Nate Burleson (at BUF) - Last WR standing in Seattle... faces Clements on the road Santana Moss (at NYG on Thursday) - Don't like the short week preparation or his QB performance Thanks in advance for your thoughts.

I think Brees Will play well...If the weather is any indication they might be getting a pretty hefty chip on their shoulder come sunday (They seem to do well when playing at home also) Id go with Lewis or Graham ...JAX plays great run D... Wr...man its a coin flip..sorry i couldn't be more help Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carmo911 2 Posted August 31, 2008 you draft Brees as a stud #! QB so play him...always play your studs i like Lewis and Winslow please see mine http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...howtopic=321105 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ssharpe12 0 Posted August 31, 2008 take brees over warner. then Graham and Moss Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
billmatic 0 Posted August 31, 2008 I'd go Brees/Graham/Winslow. I love Warner, but to me, Brees is pretty much a must-start every week. I don't think Cleveland's D will be able to contain Dallas, and they'll likely be playing catch-up, hence me picking Winslow and not Lewis. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
masmza 0 Posted August 31, 2008 thanks for hitting mine... I'd go: Warner: (I like Brees, but don't expect high scoring game with TB) Graham: Heavy workload and ok matchup Winslow: CLE will have to score plenty Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigD79 0 Posted August 31, 2008 I'd have to go with Warner. He has the most upside. Brees if you want to play it safe. E. Graham is the best choice at RB. NO def is weak IMO. TE usually do well aginst DAL. K. Winslow is the way to go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NorthernVike 2,087 Posted September 3, 2008 Breeze started very slow last year, Warner has two of the best recivers in the league. I'm starting Warner over Cutler. That said. I'd still start Breeze Not much help I know Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
