Can't believe this, but pick 2 of 3 Bell/Westy/Slaton

Postby 34=Sweetness » Sun Sep 13, 2009 10:44 am

Maybe I'm buying too much into this hype thing, but I'm conflicted on my pick for this. It's a standard 10/6 scoring system, no PPR. I've got Mike Bell vs Detroit, Westbrook at Carolina, and Slaton vs the Jets. I know I shouldn't even be thinking about it, but Mike Bell getting a lot of carries vs the awful Lions is very tempting. Should I just stick with my Westbrook/Slaton gut?

Color me nuts, but Im starting bell > Westy.

in jury worry, but more importantly, Bell will crush DET including mop up yards with Bush wobbly.
Good luck

Eh i dont know man I think if it was my team i would still end up playing Westbrook and Slaton. Then its very possible im kicking myself for not playing Bell against the Lions but eh.

Nice to have choices like that, huh? I think you can't go wrong with any of them, but even against the Kitties, I have a hard time starting an almost totally unknown commodity over Westy or Slaton. If he goes off, he goes off - but he's the one most likely to not go off as well, imo. Good luck!

I think theres way to much hype surrounding bell... you prob spent a 1-2 rd pick for westy... why in gods name would u have him ride pine behind a 3rd string back???? Westy and Slaton and this is a no brainer imo

Dynasty league, he was my 3rd rounder 5 years ago ;-)

Maybe I just got caught in the hype of it all, but I wouldn't call Bell third string this week, with Thomas out and Bush banged up (as usual).
