Sit em Start em week 8

Ok, give me your questions.

is michael turner still a weekly starter?  should i move thomas jones ahead of him and have michael turner as a flex competing with nate burleson or mike sim walker for the flex spot?

 i guess i have 2 spots for those three

Yes, Michael Turner is still a starter. He has 7 touchdowns right now and he hasn't even hit a stride yet. You start him and Thomas Jones every week and use Burleson or Sims-Walker as Flex players.

Also, pick on Shonn Greene who is now replacing Leon Washington (Who broke his leg). Greene had 2 touchdowns and 144 yards last week. He is a great flex player as well. I would say he is the future in NY. He looked very good last week, even though it was against the Raiders.

Clem1183 - I just got offered a trade; his Kevin Smith/Willis Mcgahee for my Brent Celek/Matt Forte. Going by overall points so far it makes sense but I feel like I'd regret it. Thanks.


I would not take that trade at all. Mcgahee will not see as many carries considering how good Ray Rice has been playing.
Mcgahee was hot at the beginning of the season but take a look at his last 2 games. 8 carries total for 1 yard and 1 goal line touchdown. Yes, you read that right.. 8 carries in 2 games for a total of 1 yard.

His trade offer sucks.

no man.. i'm starting deangelo williams and i guess turner..  if i have to start thomas jones then i have to bench another receiver.  i'm fine with that.   starting receivers are colston, r white, ...   and i'm leaning towards sim-walker over burleson.    jags and playing the titans..

it's a great problem to have ..  i have #1's and 2's all across my line up.   i don't even consider starting half my team

I forgot you have Williams. I can't remember your whole team nigga! Yes, Williams and Turner are your starters, and your flex should be Jones.

Sounds like you have some strange rules in your league. If you are allowed to start running backs over receivers then you should be doing that most of the time.

You get to start 3 receivers right? Go with Colston,White, and Sims-walker. Burleson isnt going to do anything against the Cowboys... "Come on man"

Clem1183 - ^Whoops.

I declined this morning and counter-offered Moreno/Celek for K. Smith/Burleson and he accepted. Any Better?


Yes, much better and fair too. K. Smith gets most of the carries and Burleson is in the top 2 there. Don't play Burleson this week though.

Driver or Sims-Walker?

 dude, just realized hakeem nicks is doing pretty good too..  sim-walker may not have won the spot yet..

so here is my final WR choices.. 



burleson, sims-walker, nicks, collie...



already starting is colston and white..  



lol.. i just like to brag about my team.. 

419 - Driver or Sims-Walker?


Well last time Jax played TN, they destroyed them and Sims Walker had 90 yards and 2 tds. So it appears he matches up very well against TN.

Donald Driver has been hot lately but they are playing against a very tough defense. Minnesota looked good against Pitt last week, they had constant pressure on Roethlisberger, and if they do the same to Rogers, he may have a hard time finding receivers.

I would have to go with Sims-Walker this week as he is a big target of Garrard.

Your 3rd should be Sims-Walker. Anothony Gonzales might be back this week for Indy, so that means less catches for Collie & Garcon. Either way, I like Sims Walker over the other guys you have.

Nicks is good, but has a very tough matchup this week against the Eagles.

ok i'm 1-6 this year despite being 6th 0f 14 in PF(yeah i'm that guy)i'm normally pretty cocky about fantasy football and won't ask for advice but its been coaching mistakes the past few weeks giving me the L.


i've got turner and addai locked in at rb. miles austin and vincent jackson at wr. my flex spot is up between Boldin and Sproles. its a .5ppr league

i just looked back and every week i had enough points to win if i played the right players. 1 and fucking 6 disgusting

Your RB's and Wide out's look good. You have the right people locked in right now.

I have Boldin on my team and have watched him closely the last few weeks. The dude is banged up, he is tough as nails but hurt. Arizona should EASILY beat the Panthers this week and technically do not need Boldin to win. I see them using him sparingly this coming week.

San Diego is starting to give the ball to Ladanian more, and that will continue against Oakland. However, last week Thomas Jones and Shonn Greene of the Jets had big games.. both going over 100 yards and I think 3 td's between the 2 IN OAKLAND.

I like the upside with Sproles this week against Oakland vs. a banged up Boldin. I'm hoping they rest Boldin and let him properly heal so he can come back and be more effective. San Diego will be able to score anyway they want, but if they were smart, they would utilize the running game just like the Jets did.

Go with Sproles.

ty caleb

i'll post the outcome

No need.. I will be watching the games. I hope Sproles comes through for you so I don't look a douchebag.

Remember, I'm just giving advice. Its up to you to go with who you want.

 you should make a weekly big board to rank all the players..

I was offered a trade. He wants Mike Sims Walker for Calvin Johnston. I know that Johnston is hurt, but may be a great pick up for later in the season?
My other recievers are Randy Moss, Johnny Knox,Lance Moore, and I just picked up Anthony Gonzalez off waivers for next week.

Take the trade for Calvin Johnson. Calvin is a beast and will probably be back in a week or 2. He is THE main go to target for whoever is the QB in Detroit.


Having Randy Moss and Calvin Johnson will be huge for you. See if Devin Hester is available from the Bears, he is better than Knox. Also, see if you can get Hakeem Nicks from the Giants, he is another sleeper. Hold onto Gonzalez.

I got one for you.  Due to bye weeks and injuries, I have to start 1 of the following this week:



Ricky Williams @ NYJ

Felix Jones vs SEA



What say you?
