I picked Brees in the first round, and finally, got a first round performance from him this week.

Starting 0-4 concerns me, should I look in a 12 team league for potential replacements?

I drafted him again after last season, after being ultra-productive, and was lucky enough to have Graham at the same time.

I have Brees, WR Greg Jennings, WR Torrey Smith, TE V. Davis, RB's Murray and D. Martin, K Zuerlein, D Bengals.

1-3 so far.

Bench is Rodgers (ATL) Britt, Draughn, Ringer, Barden, Edelman, and WR A. Hawkins (CIN).

I've scored well so far, but have hit other players on the wrong week, scoring higher than 100.

Any advice?

Dude, Drew is leading fantasy producer in my NFL.com league. Hes also on my team. Hes gone for 35,30,28,56. Thats hardly underproducing.

Im sitting at 2-2. I have the most points scored for in my league by almost 100, AND the most points scored against in my league. I'm hardly worried right now, that will work itself out. Just bad luck.

Week 3 I had enough points to win every other matchup twice, except the guy I was playing who had Jamal Charles and AJ Green.

Yeah I have second most points, but most points against and am currently 1-3. I'm starting Brees and have Matt Ryan on the bench. Every week I have to decide which one to play, both are doing well but it seems I start the lesser of the two every week. Who should I start this week, was gonna go Brees against sd, but Ryan is playing redskins who have a horrendous pass defense

Don't understand why you would have both.. Best thing for you to do would be trade Matt Ryan for a starter at another position and ride with Brees. No point in having both. If I had to guess Brees has a better chance of scoring more the rest of the year. Ryan is probably at an all time High to trade right now. Sell high and buy low.

Really don't understand what you are asking right now.. Brees is coming off his best performance and is a top 3 scorer in all league formats I can think of. Ride with him you are fine. Your defense could be better and Jennings has been a bust because of injury so far.. Jennings is who you should be worried about, maybe pick up another wr and drop somebody off your bench. (not Jennings of course)

I just traded Vick/Colston/Miles austin for brees/Bmarsh




Granted, Brees has a bye when I play that owner but I still feel like I won

I would say you got the two best players. But maybe he needed another WR or something? But yea I would say you won that.
