as a niner fan i want crabtree to do well and i think he will, sorta...but josh morgan, the #2 WR, is catching the ball when targeted and he's facing weaker/single coverage so crabtree hopefully gets less love from alex smith but the niners keep winning.

his problem is that vernon davis is such a bigger target and frank gore gets used healthily in the red zone so i dont see crabtree getting too many TDs. up and comign WR, not great fantasy guy yet

Basically, it makes sense to start 2 QBs unless a RB/WR has a sick matchup, simply because QBs generally score more points.

I have 4 QBs and am thinking of trading one (and probably dropping one - Hasselbeck). Thoughts on what I should do? Package one QB with a mediocre back/receiver and go for an elite back/receiver?

Here's my team:

QB: Vick
RB: Gore
RB: D. Williams
RB/WR:Fred Taylor
WR: DeSean Jackson
WR: Steve Smith (NYG)
TE: Vernon Davis
D/ST: Bengals
OP: Donavan McNabb
K: David Akers

Bench: Ben Roethlisburger, Matt Hasselbeck, Jonathan Stewart, Nate Washington, Santonio Holmes, Mike Thomas, Cowboys D/ST.

My thoughts were to start the best two QB matchups each week between Vick, McNabb, and Roethlisburger. But do people think trading one of them will significantly help?

Sorry; I know this isn't very specific, but I appreciate any advice.

You might try to shop Hass. In a 12 team 2 QB league, someone probably could use a QB. You might try and get something for him before Whitehurst takes over.

Flex spot, 1.25 ppr

Brandon Jackson @ Chi
Garcon @ Den
Taylor vs Buf

I think one of the RB's, and with injury to Faulk and trade of Maroney, isn't Taylor gonna get the lions share of NE's running game? Or is it still Morris/Taylor/Gervius RBBC???

FWIW, ATL is the worst defense in the league thus far in terms of yards allowed per rush @ 5.9, having faced the Cardinals and the Steelers.
JAX is 11th worst @ 4.4, having faced Denver and SD.

ATL has given up 130 rushing yards per game, JAX 120

thanks for the feedback. One guy in my league only has one QB -- Eli Manning. He starts S. Jackson, C. Benson, and R. Brown at RBs and Flex and S. Smith (Car) and D. Driver at WR. His bench is Forsett, F. Jackson, Sproles, Aromashodu, McGahee, L. Murphy and B. Scott.

Think he'd consider Hass + Nate Washington for Benson? Maybe Hass + Jonathan Stewart? Maybe all 3?

Need 1 RB and a flex. No PPR

Foster v Dal
LT @ Mia
Ward @ TB
Floyd @ Sea

Also planning to drop Chester Taylor. I'm 8th in waivers so what priority do you give to the following people. I have Celek at TE and have yet to be impressed hence why there are TE's on this list. If I got one of these TE's I wouldn't drop Celek just play by match up.

Dustin Keller
Aaron Hernandez
Mike Tolbert
Demaryius Thomas
Mike Thomas

I'm fairly stacked at WR (Megatron, Smith-CAR, Ward, Floyd, Mason) hence why they are lower on the list.

Would you swap MJD for Lesean Mccoy and Brandon Marshall.

My current RB and WR:

RB: MJD, Jahvid Best, Jamaal Charles, Jonathan Stewart, Felix Jones

WR: AJ, Ochocinco, Mike Williams (TB), Johnny Knox

Both of my TE have been struggling, Brent Celek and Zach Miller...now with Vick starting QB, the Kolb - Celek partnership that ppl thought would score good points is not there.

Should I drop Zach Miller and pick up another TE this week until Vick and Celek start molding better?

Avail TE:

Pettigrew
Dustin Keller
Olsen
Kellen Winslow.

Thx.

My dumbass dropped Vick an hour before they renamed him the starter. My QB situation is Eli Manning and Kolb. Do I use my #2 waiver priority to pick Vick back up? I'm pretty sure someone will scoop him via waivers.

Any interest in starting a thread where we post our matchups and people post who they think the favorite is?

Probably won't get too many replies, but could be fun. Just a suggestion.

Starting Vick over Eli last week won me one of my leagues.

Ryan Mathews reveals he has a high ankle sprain, right after I pass on Tolbert in all leagues when all the reports had him being fine this week.

Keller, Winslow, and Witten all have potential. Miller isn't looking all that great. I might tilt Winslow, oddly. There are a lot of mouths to feed in both NYJ and Dallas, but TB only really has two guys who catch much. Although, Winslow has the worst matchup this week. You might look and see what Houston and Miami have given up to TEs they've played.

Crabby @ KC
K. Walter vs Dallas
Massaquoi @ Bal

Hell, I benched him in week 2. Screw Crabtree.
