Alright folks i'm 6-6 and sitting in the final playoff spot at the moment and in desperate need of some advice to keep my hopes alive......

I need to fill a RB, WR, and W/R flex spot with these players......

Darren Mcfadden vs SD
Larry Fitzgerald vs STL
Mario Manningham vs WAS
Justin Forsett vs CAR
Donald Driver vs SF

Typically I'd put Mcfadden, Fitzgerald and Manningham in and be done with it, but with Oakland up against SD (#1 D in the league) and Fitzgerald with no one to throw to him i'm in a bit of a quandary...What do the Dawgs think?

Scoring in this league
No pts for receptions
10 yards per point

I agree with you. Manningham, Fitzgerald, and McFadden are must starts IMO....Forsett is way too untrustworthy and Driver has been as well. I like Manningham since Nix is out and you can't sit Fitz or McFadden IMO.

Same scenario for me, but I need to choose ONE WR:

Davone Bess vs Cleveland

or

Malcolm Floyd vs Oakland

or

Randy Moss vs Jacksonville

Luckily I dont have to count on Fitzgerald, as Im 10-2 and locked up as the top seed. But he has been brutal, no one can get him the ball. Im starting Santana Moss over him this week.
I would take Driver over Fitz if I were you. And McFadden over the Chargers, against a division rival Id expect that McFadden will be a focal point of the Raiders game plan.

Gotta have Manningham in there as he is Manning's primary receiving target with both Smith and Nicks out.

Hopefully you started Driver and McFadden. I love being right.

Need some help with the HB, WR, and Flex Options this week.. not sure what to do with some guys more so do to weather...


Rashad Mendenhal vs. Cincinnati
Legarette Blount vs. Washington
Brandon Jacobs vs. Minnesota

Donald Driver vs. Detroit
Deion Branch vs. Chicago
Steve Johnson vs. Cleveland
Braylon Edwards vs. Miami

Need 2 start 2 RB's, 2 WR's, and 1 Flex

I'm thinking

Mendenhall & Blount
Deion Branch & Donald Driver
Flex
Brandon Jacobs

I want to put Steve Johnson in, but not sure if there will be a lot of opportunities for the guy b/c of the weather..

Mendenal, Blount, and Jacobs are hard nosed guys about to get a ton of carries in December I believe..

I would go Johnson and Branch along with all 3 RB's.

Ugh actually Detroit is poor against the pass. Keep it the way you have it.

which 2 of the 3 WR's

Marques Colston
Andre Johnson
Brandon Loyd

I'd go with Colston and Johnson, but am not sure about the Texans vs Ravens D. And who knows what Loyd can do against the Cardinals, Broncos are hit or miss.


It's supposed to be hard! If it wasn't hard, everyone would do it. The hard... is what makes it great!
