question. what should i do?
i need another receiver. imma start reggie wayne and desean jackson next week. for my W/T im not sure who to start. i have roy williams and donald driver who both have sucked. should i drop both of them and pick up any of these guys?
Anthony Gonzales, Brandon Lloyd, Matt Jones, Derrick Mason, Antonio Bryant, Devery Henderson, Hank Baskett, etc. many other options but im not gonna list em all.

roy williams (would not start - I dropped him for A. Bryant FWIW)
donald driver (good vs ATL D - possibility)


Anthony Gonzales (possible w/ PM coming off bye wk)
Antonio Bryant (possibly)
Brandon Lloyd (prob won't play - maybe should check on that)
Matt Jones (nope)
Derrick Mason (nope)
Devery Henderson (nope)
Hank Baskett (nope)

Bottom Line:
I would drop R Williams for Gonzalez or Bryant and keep an eye on A Rodgers (Driver) and go from there.

Just my .02 - Good Luck with whatever you decide

Edit: Forgot you were starting R Wayne and I usually do not start 2 WR's on the same team. Just one of those things
Maybe take a chance on Bryant?

thanks. i guess roy williams is now behind johnson on the depth chart. but driver has also been takin a backseat to jennings and only had 8 yards last week. and yea, im thinkin bout gonzales, im just hopin peyton goes back to normal.

Also, I agree about Driver, but he is due (especially against ATL)

yea, i might. tough decisions. id really like to trade for a wide receiver but thats gonna be difficult to get a legit one. i do have some good backs tho i could trade for one. idk. i think ill throw some offers around and see if anyone bites. if not ill go with gonzales or bryant i guess.

A Bryant
T Housh
and the WR's are killing me (who to start)

fantasy trade thoughts:

peyton manning for lynch or michael turner & which one should i offer

i've got delhomme on the bench but he seems to be coming into his own + steve smith is back

i have frank gore, brandon jacobs & lendale white as my RBs...pretty weak outside of gore IMO ...ryan grant has been an absolute bust for me so i need some Rb help

I have asked this question once already:

Out of the three pick two:

Eddie Royal
Isaac Bruce
Bobbi Engram

Everyone seemed to say Royal and Engram.... Not only does Engram play in the slot he also is coming off his injury. Isnt it a fairly high risk to start him over Bruce? Saying Bruce has been O'Sullivan's top target...

I would offer L White (due to the his injury and Thomas and Henry behind him), then try Lynch or Jacobs (with D Ward getting carries). You should probably get Manning for Lynch, but I would certainly try to keep Gore, Lynch and Turner since they basically carry the run load. Of course, that's just me

E Royal - hard not to start him with Cutler being as good as he is at the moment.
Issac Bruce - I like him and O'Sullivan lately plus Sanders (NE CB) is probably out (not sure though)
Bobbie Engram - My least favorite of the 3. Injury, NYG coming off bye week, etc.

Few Decisions I have to make:

QB: Roethlisberger or Cassel (Ben hasn't been practicing much and he hasn't looked that great this season)

WR: I need 3 of these 4...E. Royal, A. Johnson, S. Moss, and B. Engram (Right now I am leaning towards Royal, Johnson, and Moss b/c it's Engrams first week back)

RB: With Steven Jackson on a bye, I am starting M. Lynch and one of the following: S. Slaton, E. James, or J. Stewart (I am leaning towards Slaton, but A. Green will be back in line-up)

Any suggestions?

If you feel comfortable with your RB's, you would get a Top 10 WR in Chambers, but your WR's look pretty good to me. Just remember, you can only start so many per game.
Do you know how much longer Parker is projected to be out?

to me, this really depends on who you think will have their "break out" game. JAX has a terrible pass defense but Cassel has more weapons in my opinion. I guess I would try Cassel (reluctantly).

I would so with Slaton unless you get return yards. If so, consider Stewart.

I'm leaning towards Cassel anyway, but Jax pass defense is the only reason I'm considering Roethlisberger.

We don't get return yds, so I think I'll stick with Slaton.

Thanks for the advice

Help! I just saw that Wes Welker (@ SF) was questionable with a groin that limited him in practice. I'm always skeptical of the Patriots' injury report, but this is the first I've heard of Wes having an issue.

I have Vincent Jackson (@ MIA)and Anthony Gonzalez (@ HOU) on my bench and could start one of them instead of Welker. Thoughts?
