V.D.
I already see a problem with the college fantasy game. There is no playoff in college, so how can you have a Superbowl?

PPR or no?

Coles or welker . . .PPR or no?

I ask because it might make a difference on how I'd evaluate this decision.

I gotta go, so here are my two cents. Keeping in mind that past results are no sure fire indicator of future performance, you've got to love Welker in a PPR league. Guy is on a roll, and I know of no reason the Pats would change that aspect of their offense. If it ain't broke . . .

On the other hand, Coles hasn't had the kind of season his owners probably hoped for. One monster game and two good ones, a couple of mediocre weeks and then last week. We'll call last week an anomaly and never speak of it again. Coles can put up numbers if Brett can put the ball in the vicinity of the green jersey. He may not catch the most balls (if for no other reason than I think Brett gets off on maximizing the number of receivers with catches), but he really only needs one or two to make a splash.

It's a chance with Coles whereas Welker has been the safe and steady bet every week. It's your call.

thanks. My other two wr are pretty solid. Welker has been good for a few points but his lack of tds hurts. Not ppr

I need to pick up a new QB and RB. Im going to drop trent edwards and ray rice. Would it be good to pick up Big ben and larry johnson? or tyler thigpen and mewelde moore?

---

Thigpen could be pretty damn good down the stretch with his schedule,unless someone dropped Orton or something (even then, I would strongly consider Thigpen based on schedule alone). I would stay away from Ben (personally). The LJ/Moore option is a bit different. I would probably go with LJ based ONLY on the fact that WP will be coming back and the lack of production from the other KC RB's. I hate to say that b/c Moore has actually been pretty good.

ETA: forgot to "quote" and confused myself

I picked up Larry Johnson today, but Moore is not a bad Plan B.

no problem, I hope some of it helped

big ben or brett favre?

PPR League.

I need to bench one of these 5. Which one?

Randy Moss vs. NYJ
Brandon Marshall @ ATL
Reggie Wayne vs. HOU
Dwayne Bowe vs. NO
Hines Ward vs. SD


I'm leaning towards benching Ward.

In a PPR league I need to bench one of the following:

Thomas Jones @ Pats
Reggie Bush vs. KC
LT @ Steelers

Of course it looks like Reggie will probably play, but it isn't 100%.
