Benson or Parker 1/2 PPR league (will help)

Postby iloveny18 » Sun Sep 20, 2009 2:01 am

Everyone says that parker is to be benched this week but it's hard to imagine writing him off after just one week (After all, no pit rb looked good last week)

I would start c-ben this week, but that packer D is tough against the run.

we get .5 ppr in this league, any thoughts?

If it was a full PPR league I think playing FWP over Benson would hold a bit more water, but I think Benson looked pretty good and he's the only guy Cincinnati has. Green Bay has a good run defense, but Chicago does have a decent defense even if they're missing Urlacher.

I still play Benson. Help with mine? viewtopic.php?t=448089

I go with FWP, despite his struggles last week. The half PPR tips the balance in his favor because Benson won't catch anything, and Parker will look better when he's not facing the TEN defense.

I would start my grandmother over parker! Fast Willies first step looks :-t . Id go with Benson. He carries the load and gets the goalline touches.

I'm in the same boat (Also have Mike bell). I went with Benson just on guaranteed touches but I don't feel great about either.
