Kilroyz Krystal Ball (Start/Sit Questions ANSWERED!)

"The Ball" is Back!

As a service to all who request it I will consult my mystical sphere and attempt to provide insight to any Start/Bench questions my fellow Cafe members may have.

I'll be back later, but feel free to ask away and I'll get to as many questions as possible. Questions will be answered in the order in which they were received, and I will endeavor to provide both my opinion and the reasoning behind it.

Please provide any information (Scoring, Lineup Requirements, and/or Rosters) that may be of help to the Ball's attempt to peer into the future.

Also, the Ball is unable to penetrate the mystical veil known as "The Link", so please do not simply post a link to your question. Post the question itself and I will gladly attempt to answer.

As always, please note that this Krystal Ball was Konstructed by the Kremlin during the Kold War, so any inkorrect information obtained from it is the result of Krappy Kommunist Kraftmanship and not the fault of the author of this post.

Im gonna ask a few, if thats okay.

one league where pass TDs are 3 points a TD, 20 yds. a pass point, everything else standard. Which QB and which RB to start week one?

QB-Cutler @ Oakland, Garrard Vs. Tennesee
RB- Turner vs. Det, Kevin Smith @ Atlanta, Brandon Jacobs vs. Washington

And, then in a league where all TDs are worth 6, pass yd. is 25 per point, no ppr and everythin else is standard, which QB, RB, and WR to start, one of each

QB- Campbell @ NYG, Cutler @ Oakland
RB- Turner vs. Detroit, or Thomas Jones @ Miami
WR- Ted Ginn Vs. NYJ, Josh Morgan vs. Arizona, or DJ Hackett

Help is deeply appreciated, I know its a lot to ask, but is VERY appreciated thanks

In the first question I'd start Cutler (better passing game and matchup) and Turner, who should get plenty of carries against a suspect Lions' Defense

In the second I'd start Cutler again, Jones (better O-Line and solid matchup), and Ginn, who should get plenty in targets in a game the 'Fins will likely be playing from behind in.

Even with Marshall suspended I'd lean towards Cutler over Rodgers, who's in for a baptism by fire against Minnesota's formidable defense.

RB: Jones. Better Line, Better Matchup
WR: Mason. Chicago and Baltimore are bot crappy passing teams, but Mason's a MUCH more proven commodity than Hester.
TE: Shockey. How he'll fare on new team is a bit of an unknown, but I'd start him over Watson just about every week.
D: Arizona (pure matchup play)

WR3: I'd go with Crayton. Could be a lotta points scored in that game, and the injuries at WR in Big D should insure he gets a lotta looks.

RB2: Sticky Icky Ricky. Should get a decent number of carries early this season, so roll with him while you can.

FLEX: CJ4.24. It's a little risky rolling out the speedy rookie right outta the gate, but Fisher said he wants to get him involved in the Offense and the PPR is a plus.

12 team PPR with 6pts for all TD's, 1/20 passing yrds, 1/20 Return yards, and standard 1/10 rushing and Rec., +Bonus pts for big total game stats.

Roster:
QB:Tony Romo,Kurt Warner
RB:Marshawn Lynch,Kevin Smith,Ricky Williams,Chris Johnson,Jerious Norwood
WR:Santonio Holmes,Jerricho Cotchery,Nate Burleson,Vincent Jackson,DeSean Jackson
TE:Jason Witten

Must Start: 2 RB-2WR-1 Flex(RB/WR)
I can't decide who to start at the Flex, Williams,Burleson, or even Jackson with return yards could be nice.


Also I would like to upgrade at WR, could i deal Warner and one of my WR's to somebody looking for an upgrade at QB for a stud WR???

Thanks much
