[lv_2_hack 0]

He practiced yesterday. What are the chances he suits up? Any who dat homers out there?

You should check your trade inbox.

Checked and accepted. Thanks. Not real high on Oliver, but I need RB's!!

I think he playes . Now how much game he will have on the field that's a different story

That's always the scary part! You don't play him because he's on a limited snap count. Then you see the snaps he played were mostly goal line plays and he scores 2 TD's! You start him and then he runs a few routes and goes out of the game...

 

Ugh.

[Phil Simms 11 127]

Not starting him. Worried he plays the decoy role.

It has happened before.

[ricanrockers 39]

Graham and Calvin will be on my bench this weekend!

[JtmoneyJag 25]

Consider last year that he scored 6 TD'S in 6 games while on a limited snap. If he plays I'm starting him. Can't imagine you have someone on your bench with higher upside unless you picked up Jordan Reed or something.

[Serpent 51]

Wouldn't it have been just as easy to answer the question? Or should he sift through pages instead of asking a pretty decent question?

 

Doosh

 

I just put tigeru on ignore after reading that. This forum is a LOT better when you put stupid people on ignore. It's unfortunate 5 is the max, but if you just pick the 5 worst posters it's still a lot better to use it up.

So it looks like he will be active but wont start...Do we play him over a TE2,( like Jared Cook in my case)?

 

ESPN's Adam Schefter reports Jimmy Graham (shoulder, questionable) plans to play, but won't start Week 7 against the Lions.

In other words, the Saints will use Graham in red-zone packages. He'll test the shoulder in pre-game warmups before making a final decision. Owners can pray for a touchdown, but he's unlikely to see much, if any, action between the 20s. But this is Jimmy Graham. If he suits up, he needs to be in lineups. The Lions are allowing the 16th-most fantasy points to opposing tight ends.Oct 19 - 8:01 AM

So much for starting Ben Watson.

Makes for a much more difficult decision. I have cook as well. Problem with cook is he can have a productive day, but Graham outscore him due to TD's.

[Cuse9 128]

My choice is starting Graham with only TD potential or starting Pettigrew with Calvin and Ebron out.

[Gratefulegg1973 253]

Yeah, I've seen this movie before. He plays a 'handful' of snaps, is used mostly as a decoy, and maybe grabs 1 ball. Focking same every year (ya, I have him in a keeper league). I should have traded his puzzy azz weeks ago when I had a chance. He'll milk this injury for the rest of the season.

[SuperSteelers 1]

I am in the same boat here. He will either catch a touchdown and provide something or have one catch for 8 yards. I think I am starting him. Can't keep your stars on the bench.

[Frozenbeernuts 1,652]

Starting cameron over him in 1 league. Starting him over gresham in another.

[Niner49er 6]

Starting him over Witten

[Gratefulegg1973 253]

Starting Witten over him

[SLM827 4]

I have wright locked in from TNF so I'm golden with Timmys 0 points

[Joey Gladstone 33]

Starting Donnell, though it's really tempting to go with Graham.

[Jimi009 0]

Donnell bounces back this week. Book it,

I managed to grab Bennett (CHI) this week in a trade.. no idea who I start now.

Tough decisions this morning, pick 2:

 

Jimmy

Terrance Williams

Roddy White

[stonewall 647]

Hopefully, he'll double his stats from the 1st half.
