Week 3 Add/Drop & Sit/Start - Page 2 - Fantasy Sports -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

Dude Favre is playing the Lions.

12-team league. 6 points per TD, bonus points for long TDs. No PPR.

Pick one for defense:

Bucs v. Pit
Rams v. Was
Cards v. Oak
Was @ Rams
Cin @ Car
Oak @ Ari

Pick 1 Flex:

Jonathan Stewart v. Cin
Fred Taylor v. Buf (note: looks like Kevin Faulk is out this week)
Nate Washington @ NYG
Mike Thomas v. Phi

I like Arizona and Cinci in that order.
I think it's Fred Taylor at flex against an awful Buffalo.

orton mayyyybe. but i would prob start favre against detroit this week. eli is playing tennessee, and they have pretty good pass d. granted eli is not dennis dixon/charlie batch, but still. favre is playing the lions in a must win situation.

starting kolb right after a concussion could be high risk, but i dont think orton is going to have that easy of a time dealing with freeney and mathis. and celek is an auto start imo. if you want hernandez really bad, marcedes is the one to drop. but i would not do this just yet.

Does Tennessee have a good pass D? They were among the worst pass defenses last year, and they haven't faced even a top 25 NFL QB yet this season.

I think I'm ready to pull the trigger on Cooley over Zach Miller OAK. Most of Miller's rise in value was due to people thinking QB play would improve, and Campbell's use of Cooley last year. With Campbell benched, the choice looks clear.

i mean, maybe i'm biased being a titans fan. but in general they have looked good and i can see them giving eli some trouble. detroits pass rush with vanden bosch and suh is comparable, but there's no question tennessee's seconday is much better than detroit's imo. considering all these things, i still like favre's matchup better.

and cooley will end up being a great start at te. mcnabb loves throwing to his te, so cooley's value at the later part of the year will likely be much higher than it is now.

No idea. Thankfully he hasn't cost me any games where I have him, but he's looking like a huge bust.

injuries killed tennessee's defense last year. but i can see your concern. i wanna see how they do against eli before i'm comfortable saying they are back in form.

Hate my QB situation.

Relatively big money league (4 pts TD), have Kolb/Vick and Garrard.

Players available include Smith, Sanchez, Hill, Freeman, Hasselbeck, Cassel.

Should I be dropping Garrard for Alex Smith? SF is at KC this week, but he looked awfully good last night.

Assuming I pick someone up, are we going Kolb anyway?

Pretty sure these are definitely happening. Debating whether or not to hold on to Vick/Garcon. There's no one I'm itching to pick up really. Still need to make a choice on a defense though.

Think I'm fairly set, but some insurance might be good....
Staring RB's (2 RB + 1 RB/WR) are ADP, Mendenhall, and Thomas, with Sproles on bench.
Starting WR's are Smith (Car), Desean Jackson, and Collie, with Mason and Edwards on bench.

Is it worth dropping Edwards with all the talk of him following the DWI? Doesn't look to promising atm....
Can pick up Snelling, Walter, Washington (Ten), or Tolbert....Any really worth it?

And any reason to bench Collie @Den this week and put in Mason vs Cle?

(No PPR)

Add Mark Clayton
Add Austin Collie
Drop Jacoby Jones
Drop Michael Vick ???

Also, lol @ me I stupidly dropped Demaryius Thomas @ 415 after Clayton caught his 1st TD and added him, luckily no one has picked him up and I will readd him as soon as I can.

Also, dropping Eagles D??? They were my backup, but have looked awful.

braylon edwards arrested for DUI, have no idea if goodell hands out suspensions but this might boost keller or other jets value?

yes, edwards is gonna be suspended. pretty sure alcohol is included in the nfl's drug policy as per the current cba.

i'm not 100% sold on keller, but if you need a te for week 4, he looks pretty attractive against buffalo. i might get him now if he's availible.

If Braylon was already in the substance abuse "program" - which is unknown - only then would suspension be an option.

But...he still is under probation, so he could be in a lot of trouble, who knows
