I've got Palmer, T. Taylor, Carr, and Dalton available.

I like Taylor bc he seems to have the easier schedule down the road and is capable of big numbers. Palmer is the logical choice, but that division is a murderers row and his health through out the season concerns me.

Thoughts?

Palmer. In the exact same situation and that is who I am going with.

What if Palmer isn't an option who do you take next?

Baltimore fans... What is Joe Flacco's chances of being decent?

Dalton. He ended the 2014-15 season on a down note because he was throwing passes to a bunch of scout team players. His weapons are back and IMO he'll get you close to Romo numbers until Romo comes back. Taylor is a question mark, to me, but he's obviously got more upside than Dalton and even Romo with his ability to make things happen on the ground. If you went with Taylor, I don't think anyone could fault it. I just feel like Dalton has the higher floor.

Carr has a ways to go before I'd consider starting him in a 1 QB league.

I hope Trestman can make Flacco good for fantasy this year. I am concerned about his lack of quality targets.

Palmer is the obvious out of that bunch, with Carr being a distant 2nd.

The "top" in my league are
J. FLacco
J. Winston
D. Carr
B. Bortles
R. Fitz

Don't have to decide until tomorrow who I am going to pick up but I am more torn with whether or not to drop Romo or not. A MINIMUM of a month and possibly 12 weeks (ended his fantasy season). I'm leaning drop right now, but need to wait to see most recent news later today

Man, I think you almost have to drop him (unless you have a deep bench). Last time he missed 8 weeks. Are you going to play him in the playoffs his first week back? I wouldn't...I don't think they risk playing him if they aren't in contention.

Yeah, I'm kinda with you. I saw Werder said the Cowboys will likely put him on the IR designated to return which means he could come back at the earliest on Thanksgiving day.

Ive got 4Bn spots and Dez is occupying one of those... No way I can afford to keep Romo. Luckily for me, half the league won't be in contention by that point, and maybe Romo won't be on any radars.

THIS JUST IN: Tony Romo won't have surgery on his fractured left clavicle and will miss about 8 weeks

I drafted Romo with Tannehill as his backup.

Tannehill looked really good in the Dolphins loss yesterday. I'd look for him.

I wouldn't go with Dalton. He's had some great games against the Raiders and Chargers, but his next few upcoming games:
@Ravens
Chiefs
Seahawks

They just gave up 31 points to a team with no ground game.

Okay yeah, they're good and maybe look for other options on this week.
