Denver's run D is terrible.


Yes...yes they are. Brain fart...Denver was 30th in the league last year. I still would start Willis against Cincy. He might not play much this year, might as well start him while you can.

Chambers will never be higher than the 3rd option on that team. LT and Gates are the first two options, even in the passing game for LT.

Gates is supposedly not healing well from his toe surgery.

Apparently Willis is more banged up than I thought. He's ranked in the 40's for this week while Ray Rice comes in at 15. McFadden is in the 20's fwiw. I'd watch NFL Network and make it a gtd on McFadden or McGahee. If you have to submit your lineup before tomorrow night, I'd have to go with McFadden.

So I've heard. VJ has looked really good thus far. Who's going to cover Bowe for New England though?

yeah, in a ppr league Bowe will be money that game, even if he doesn't score. i think d-mac is going to shine, especially since that game is on Monday Night Football. Al Davis is going to unleash him.

I would start Cotchery and Indianapolis


Cotchery or Roddy WHite is the decision that I am having the most trouble with. The analyst on Yahoo have White projected to have a big week this week, better then Chad Johnson even. I have a shite ton of receivers who could develop into a big big year this season. Anyone else have any comments on Roddy White Vs Cotchery?

I don't know. I would probably start Jericho against Miami. Matt Ryan is going to have to prove that he can get the ball down the field. I do like his upside, though.

I feel like no matter what I do, the other one is going to have a 20 point game.

I started White this week over Santana Moss. and Moss is ranked higher in my pay site's predictions than Cotchery.

I'd try to deal Moss. You will undoubtedly have him on the bench when he breaks lose for a 40 point game.

Id go with Anderson over Bulger, both are playing good defenses, at least Anderson is at home and has a better receiver

Ok at second RB behind Adrian Peterson...

Selvin Young behind a Denver OL @Oakland
or Kevin Smith @ Atlanta?

Also have a W/R spot...
Start either Young or Smith?
Bryant Johnson SF WR?
DeSean Jackson Phi WR?
David Patten NO WR?

I'm thinking starting Young and Smith both is the best option. What's everyone's opinions?

Out of these bench WRs who do you guys project to have a big year?

Roddy White
Jerricho Cotchery
Jevon Walker
D. Bowe
Ted Ginn Jr

I think all of them have a good shot at "bustin loose" this year.
