Pick a FLEX — WHIR

Postby . » Fri Sep 18, 2009 4:51 pm

Which of these guys should I play at the W/R spot? Right now I'm leaning towards either Bradshaw or Ward, but I'm not sure if I should be looking at the others.

- Derrick Ward @BUF
- Felix Jones vs NYG
- Jonathan Stewart @ATL
- Ahmad Bradshaw @DAL
- Devin Hester vs PIT


Standard settings, no PPR


Thanks!

I would def go with Ward, i think hes gonna get a lot more touches thiis week.

And I think its between Bradshaw and Jones. I may be leaning towards Jones.. He always puts up good numbers at home and had a big game last year at home vs the Giants..

Thanks, I'll only be able to start 1 of them by the way.

I like Bradshaw because Dallas gave up 174 yards rushing and 2 TDs last week to Cadillac and Ward, so Bradshaw should be able to have a good game behind Jacobs.

Buffalo only gave up 73 yards rushing to NE last week, so Ward might struggle. And Felix is going to be doing the kick returning in the game, so he won't have too many carries.

I would go with Bradshaw as Dallas run defense looked terrible last week.

Thanks for your help on mine

I like Bradshaw, easily.

We aren't completely sure how the time share is going to go between the Williams/Ward/Graham combo, so I think I would hold off on him for a bit and just see how many touches he gets per game. I thought Felix Jones was going to be featured more this year in Dallas' offense but it didn't look that way in week one, not to mention NYG is a tough match up. I don't trust Devin Hester yet at WR either, I have no explanation for this other than I just don't.

I like Bradshaw over Jonathan Stewart simply because of the Panthers QB situation. Why wouldn't ATL just load the box and dare for Delhomme to beat them throwing the ball.

Jones has the biggest upside, but is somewhat risky.

Bradshaw is the safest bet, but will not have a huge game unless something silly happens.

How does the rest of your team look?

Jones & Ward

I can see Jones dramatically improving from week 1.
