Ray_T 753 Posted June 22, 2009 Which starting lineup would you rather have in 2009???? 6 pts for all TDs 1 pt for every 25 yds rushing and rec. 1 pt for every 3 receptions Option A: Kurt Warner Adrian Peterson Steve Slaton Brandon Marshall Braylon Edwards Kellen Winslow or Option B: Kurt Warner Ladainian Tomlinson Steve Slaton Calvin Johnson Marques Colston Owen Daniels Thanks Tough call. ADP is worth more than than LT, but he wont get the catches that LT will (which will close the difference in value somewhat) I cant think of many people who would choose Marshall over Megatron Edwards is inferior to Colston in terms of what I expect them both to do while healthy, but colston is coming off of another knee surgery (which concerns me a lot) so I consider those two to be roughly equal in overall value. The TE's are more or less a wash. You could make an arguement for either one, although I prefer Daniels. Based on the above explanation, I pick Option B with the deciding factor being Megatron and the PP3R (point per 3 receptions) that will add to the value of LT(at least to the point where the difference in his value and that of ADP is less than the difference between Megatron & Marshall) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daltex 0 Posted June 22, 2009 For this year and only this year, I would take the option B. However, from a Dynasty perspective, I don't give up AP. He'll be a top RB in the league for a while, LT will soon drop out of the top 10. The Johnson/Colston is very attractive, but worried about a rookie QB throwing to Johnson and injuries with Colston. Marshall and Edwards don't have much short term upside due to the instability of their current situations, but I still wouldn't get rid of AP...even in a PP3R league. Marshall and Edwards should stay top 10-12 WR's as long as they don't end up in Oakland or Tampa Bay. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I agree... its a tough decision, especially since I think colston establishes himself top 5 forever this year... But, ADP is the best player in fantasy football, he is young, and long term he is more important than any of those other players... braylon and marshall aren't chopped liver either... jdon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ras66not99 0 Posted June 22, 2009 Yeah no doubt a tough choice right there.... I'm in a similar situation in my Dynasty league (debating on giving up Peterson to possibly upgrade) I currently have as offensive starters for 09 Warner Peterson MJD R. Moss Wayne Evans Witten Gostkowski Guy wanted Cassel and AD from me for Drew Brees and Chris Johnson.... I thought about it long and hard, and I just can't give up Purple Jesus... However I really like that Colston / Calvin combo you'd be getting at WR.... but you are talkin Dynasty and I don't know about giving up AD.... uggg tough choice though (have any other young RB's on your roster ?) Good Luck whatever road you choose... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
