Pick 2;
LeSean McCoy vs the Rvens... dont' like it
Alfred Morris vs the Rams
Stevan ridley vs the Cards
Darren McFadden vs the Dolphins.


I'm inclined to go wth McFadden and Morris.. but am waffling on McFadden.. i usually dont like west coast teams on such a long trip east... but Miami sucks.
I like Ridley... but Miami sucks.

I don't like benching studs. You didn't draft McCoy in the 1st round to sit him. Green-Ellis went for 91 and a TD against the Ravens. They're still a good defense, but they're not the monsters they were. I don't trust Shanny RBs. You just never know what he's going to do. Ridley had a very good week, and the cards suck. But Miami sucks and McFadden isn't injured yet. Picking against McFadden and McCoy to play the matchup game, I think you're over-thinking it. In week 2, until gameplay tells you these guys aren't matchup proof, you stick with the elite players over the mediocre guys with good matchups. I go McCoy and McFadden, and look for a way to get one of the others into a flex spot.

Gotta fill a W/R flex since Garcon is out.

Pick 1:
Aldrick Robinson
Jonathan Stewart
Doug Baldwin
Ryan Williams
Greg Little

Also
Phillip Rivers or Matt Schaub?

[afkidd]

pick two: alfred morris, steve smith or reggie bush?

[Bliz]

Also, RGIII or Brady?

Same type deal as I was saying to Bang. I don't bench studs for lesser players with matchups. RG3 had one amazing week, but he's not an elite fantasy player yet. You don't bench Brady in week 2, imo. Not against the Cardinals. Not with the Skins playing a team we SHOULD be running the ball against a lot.

I agree...I'd play McCoy for sure and probably would pick McFadden over Ridley (though that one is close for me given NE's apparent change in game plan this year). Morris is a distant 4th in this case.

Miami as a whole may suck, but they have a good run defense which is their one strength. McFadden has had a bad history against the Phins.

Go with Morris & McCoy. I feel like RG3 will feed Morris the ball as often as he can, especially with Garcon out of the passing game. Ridley is going up against a good run defense also. I don't see Ridley having a big day.

[GMUSkinsFan]

Garcon missed 2/3rds of the game last week and Griffin didn't shy away from passing. He picked up right where he left off with Robinson. I still don't trust Shanny's backfield, I'd go McFadden and Ridley.

THank you for this. That's all my inner-fanboy neded to hear. In my case, I'm going Morris over Run DMC.

Luck or Palmer

Morris or Richardson

This is a dynasty league so I drafted young players

Would you start Donald Brown over Josh Freeman or McFadden

How the hell are you able to start a RB and QB in the same spot?

Cause I have a QB/RB/WR/TE slot in the league im in

Need advice, pronto:

Starters:

RB A. Morris
RB S. Ridley
FLEX Maurice Jones Drew
WR Brandon Marshall (locked, and **** you too, jerk)
WR Dez Bryant

Bench:

Marshawn Lynch
Reggie Wayne
Pierre Garcon (not taking the risk here, he's not going in my lineup)

Do I put Lynch in? Or do I ride the hot hands in Ridley/Morris. Last year we ran for about 150 and a touch against the Rams...
