No PPR: AJ Green (Cle) or Robert Meachem (GB)?

1 PPR: Mike Tolbert (Min) or Mark Ingram (GB)?[/QUOTE]

Aj vs meachem. Seems like a wash there. Pretty much hoping one of them gets a td grab. I have to imagine more opertunities would be there for aj. But meachem plays on Thursday so if ur an action junkie go meachem

Tolbert or Ingram. ? Flip a coin. Both will split carries I Ingram faces tougher def. Wish I had a better argument

Mods should change title to "week 1 sit or start"

My dilemmas:

PPR

Sanchez vs DAL or Bradford vs PHI

Flex spot pick one:

Best @ TB
Tolbert v MIN
Amendola v PHI
LT v DAL

Looks like it's an easy answer at qb but when u really think about it Sanchez might have a better game than Bradford. This is only going by the fact that eagles have upgraded their corners. Looks like it's gonna be tough throwing but what little I've seen they havent looked that locked down. I mean Sanchez looks like garbage at times but I see him throwing at least 2 tds

Sucks that we havent seen the eagles def in a real game yet but on paper it looks bad for Sam

And best is the guy. Play him now while he's still in one piece. Ppr no question it's best

aj green is a no brainer.

Tolbert MIN
D. Thomas NE
Ward IND
this is rough. Doubt Foster plays. Mathews/Best. Has to be Mathews or Tolbert in one of those spots. Thomas looks terrible and I don't think ward sees as much action as.........

Tate, if preseason performance and rotoworld are good indicators.

I'll use 1 spot for Tate if Foster is out, I'm leaving Tate out of these though. If you think I should start Tate here even if Foster plays lemme know.
very much agree with bolded. Britt seems to be near enough 100% to start here.

This has to be Jacobs, right....unless ARI secondary is all-time bad or something.

As a fellow Foster/Tate owner, I certainly do not hope Foster is out, haha. Tate and Derrick Ward figure to share carries at a near 50/50 split. Whereas they're probably not going to play Foster unless he's healthy enough to take on his usual role (maybe a slightly lighter workload).
Don't have Foster, only Tate. Would therefore be nice if Foster missed some games lol.

I assuming Benson is starting and getting like 30 carries. Austin ain't doing **** against Revis.

Pay attention to what Rex Ryan says during the week. If he puts Revis on Dez Bryant, then I'd probably roll with Austin. If Revis is on Austin, take Benson. My guess based on patterns from last year is that in fact Revis will line up with Austin. It's pretty much inexcusable for responsible fantasy owners playing Jets defense to think their top receiver can beat Darrelle Revis anymore.

I'm taking BJGE for the TD vulture. I'd wanna feel out the Carolina offense under Newton before I get too excited about Deangelo's prospects.

I really like Sanchez this week, but I'm still not sure I'm starting him over Bradford. Probably a lot closer than it usually would be.

Best by like a quarter mile. LT does not belong in any fantasy discussions this year.

already know who my 2 WRs (CJ and DJax) and 2 RBs (Forte and Blount) are. Need to decide on my flex. Standard scoring non-PPR.

Welker@ Mia
Sidney Rice @ SF
Javon Ringer @ Jax (assuming he's healthy and CJ isn't ready to paly)

Welker no brainer, javon would be a far second imo.

Im torn here w/ the matching (Ray Rice v Steelers) so im thinking of sitting him, but they did pick up Vonta Leach.

RBs: Pick 2- 12 team, 1pt / TD run over 50yrds, no-ppr
Rice (v Pitt)
Sjax (v Phi)
R. Matthews (v Minn)
Greene (v Dal)
Tate (v Ind)

phillys d has looked good, thinking of rolling w/ Sjax/Matthews
(no longer going w/ tate, appears hes behind Ward)

Flex: pick 1
Rice
Britt (Jax)
Greene

tooo much depth, too many options

I need help with my flex spot.

I'm debating between:
Mike Tolbert
Pierre Garcon (I have Peyton, will obviously depend if he plays)
Davone Bess

Believe it or not, I'm really leaning towards Bess. They're playing NE and that should pretty much be a shootout that NE won't really care about playing too much defense in towards the end of the game. Henne sucks but, but Bess looked okay last year. Tolbert seems like the obvious choice but the Vikings defense is pretty good and their pretty well equipped to handle a guy like Tolbert. Also, obviously small sample but Bess scored in both games vs. NE last year.

League is not PPR.

EDIT: I also have Jonathan Stewart.

PPR start 2 RBs:

Ray Rice (Pit)
Steven Jackson (Phil)
Peyton Hillis (Cin)

I feel like their is something inherently wrong sitting my first round pick the first week, but this has to be Hillis & Jackson right?

I had Bess last year and he was great for me. He never has a monster day, but he also won't give you a zero. Solid play imo.

Stafford, meh I guess Moreno but maybe Addai bc of HOU weak defense.

im in the same boat, i have rice/sjax/matthews. if you need solid points id go w/ rice cuz you know hell get his and probably in the 8pt category. i find a strong urge to start hillis over rice given the matchup.
