***OFFICIAL 2010 Fan. Football "WHO TO START" Thread***

my first:

Benson or Sproles?

Benson. Sproles is servicable but I see Mathews getting the majority of touches. Benson could very well be in for another big year.

My turn:

Jamaal Charles (vs SD)

or

Arian Foster (vs. Indy)

(Also have Matt Forte on my bench against Detroit)...

quick ? for u fantasy guru's...... i noticed Visanthe Shiancoe is sitting on waivers right now... should i drop chris cooley for him? im only thinking because rice is out for a while (and he caught more td passes last year than pretty much his first couple years combined lol)... however i love cooley and i think mccrab will become very comfortable with him(started to show it already in preseason)

wtf is up WITH THE STATRACKER!?! ahHHHHHHH!!!!

Cooley is a pimp

Tough one. I think Cooley will bounce back from his injury last yr and have a good year for the skins. On the other hand, Rice is out for ~6 weeks or so and Shiancoe will get some additional recs. He had a good game last night too.

I'd personally roll the dice with Cooley and see what happens in Washington. New look squad and Cooley can come up big with Mcnabb at the helm.

I like Charles. HOU is pass happy. I think Charles gets more touches, and in general I think KC will be running the ball more.

i'd start Shiancoe over Cooley

who has better offense? chicago bears or houston texans?
which team will get in position to score more?
i'm trying to decide on which kicker to start

CJ Spiller or Jahvid Best?

Right now I have Spiller...

Charles and Forte without a doubt. They are both going to have top 10 back type years imo.

I would definitely pick up Shiancoe. He is a much better value then Cooley right now. Maybe week 6 Cooley will come around, but for the next 5 weeks Shiancoe is going to be money every game.

If Cutler is on and Forte comes to form this year, which I think he will, the Bears have the slight edge. Texans are stacked though, few questions at RB is why I would hesitate to use them. Plus, Texas is playing Indy while the Bears are playing the Lions. No brainer to go with Gould.

Coin flip. Both are studs who should have successful years, but initially I would roll with Best.

I started SJax and Charles. Of course Forte and Arian Foster had monster games lol.

Next:

Steven Jackson (vs. Oak)

or

Arian Foster (vs. Was)

or

Jamaal Charles (vs. Cle)

I have Foster and Charles slated to start now, since Sjax had a knee issue last week, but appears to be healthy now. Rams are playing Oakland, so I'm thinking about starting Jax over Foster. thoughts?

I'm a skins fan and I don't trust our run D. I'd start Foster. I'd say your decision is b/t Charles and Sjax. I'd go w/Sjax vs. Oakland. C. Johnson ran all over them last week.

mine:


pick 2 WRs:

Collie v. NYG
Cribbs v. KC
Breaston @ ATL

Not related to the topic but which WR should i pick up off waivers?

Mario Manningham

or

Nate Washington

lol. I was literally just debating the same. I went w. Washington b/c I think the Giants' secondary is weaker than Tenn--I assume you know they're playing e/o this week. And, Washington is their #1 WR, whereas Manningham has to compete w/Smith and Nicks, who are usually the preferred targets.

True.

I'm thinking the same, but Manningham has been looking solid thus far even with Smith and Nicks in the mix.

Tough one, but I think i'm gonna have to go with Washington as well here.

On a side note, I hope a Vincent Jackson deal gets done today! I have him stashed and would be nice to see him in Minny!

Yeah, I have him stashed in one league too. I wonder what's going to happen w/him.

Also, re: NYG WRs v. TENN, NY is having a tough time protecting Eli. This, obviously, makes things tougher on their passing game as we saw last Sunday night.

Well, looks like V Jackson isn't going anywhere anytime soon. What do you think? Are you keeping him stashed hoping he'll get traded before the deadline? Won't be back til week 7 (if at all), so not sure what I'm gonna do with him at this point.

I'm gonna see if he's going to agree to play in SD. If he's definitely coming back week 7, he'd be worth the roster spot in the meantime, imo. If after this weekend it's still up in the air, I'm prob. gonna ditch him.

I'd honestly be surprised if he were to play for the Bolts again. Just don't see it happening, but hope I am mistaken! Yeah, I think I'm gonna hold on to him a little longer til I hear some news, or if there's a hot waiver.
