Now I'm between starting Bowe or Britt.

edit: Probably just drop Blount from the flex.

ok.... need WR help..... already have Austin & Boldin starting ... 3rd receiver? Patrick Crayton vs Jeremy Maclin .. league gets points for return yardage too...

also for the flex position... right now I have Fred Jackson, but options are Crayton vs Maclin loser, Daniel Thomas, Stephens-howling, Jonathan Stewart

You have a pretty big league huh?

I'd go Maclin over Crayton... Crayton is the 4th option in SD behind VJ, Gates and Floyd.

For flex, I'd say one of the backs not named Stephens-Howling. Daniel Thomas is intriguing, but I'm not sure how things are going for him in Miami yet.

For me, I'm going with Stevie Johnson and Wes Welker now.. but it is still tugging at me to get Colston in there, especially with Lance Moore out, he'll get more looks.

Any thoughts on putting him in flex? Right now I have Michael Turner there... hard to sit a feature back, no matter what. My other two backs are Ray Rice (tough match-up) and MJD.

I think the itch to get Colston in partially has to do with watching the nationally televised game tonight. But, it's somewhat of a crapshot between those 3 recievers regardless.

I have stevie and Colston in my line up. Added bonus with Drees as my QB. CBSSportsline Jamie E. says he's a bust. (Colston) I think it will be a shoot out. i dunno.

I think MJD is going to struggle with new QB IMO.

I have J. Best in my Flex (with Hillis and McCoy starting) I thought about replacing Colston with Burress, but id rather watch 2 of my players tonight.

I've always been like that though. Close matchup, guy on sunday/ monday night :)

Yeah... 12 teams right now my starting lineup is as follows

QB - Rivers
RB - J Charles
RB - Ryan Grant
WR - Miles Austin
WR - Anquan Boldin
WR - Jeremy Maclin
TE - Zack Miller (only other options are Shiancoe or dump one and get Evan Moore)
Flex - Fred Jackson
K - Gostkowski
Def - Green Bay

Thomas tweaked his hammy at practice today.

Here's my team in a 12 team standard scoring league. I've made 6 trades in the last 3 days to get to this.

QB Stafford
RB Foster
RB MJD
WR Austin
WR Bowe
TE V. Davis
Flex - D. Williams
kicker - NE's owski
D/ST - Green Bay

Is Kendricks available? Rudolph is going to steal targets from Shiancoe this year.

I'd start Hightower at Flex, Giant's D is a mess right now

 

[Bucklion]

Marshall is a stud, they just couldn't get it going last year. 1 fucking touchdown.

Just an FYI about earlier, on the yahoo weekly FF video segment, one expert picked Beanie as a must start, the other picked Best...both are ranked pretty high this week, Wells is actually higher I believe.

Kendricks already got picked up... trades never happen in my league... everyone wants your best player for their shitty bench player...

That's the way it usually goes. I think I might like the trading more than anything

 

[jwinslow]

Braylon @ SF ...or... A.Green @ Clev?

Also, I went with Jacobs @ Wash over Ingram @ GB. I love Ingram's upside, but I both NYG backs have lit up my Skins and I'm not sure if Ingram is ready to emerge yet.

Yeah, I'm saying fuck it and going Beanie and Best. Ray will be my horse all year, but I feel like the Steelers are just too bad of a match up for him. We shall see.

And like you said, if so many weren't saying they are both must starts I wouldn't be having this problem. In fact Jamey Eisenberg has specifically said he would start both of Rice.
