LT or Pierre Thomas- WHIR

Postby twakeman » Sun Oct 18, 2009 10:53 am

I need to decide between LT vs. Denver or Pierre Thomas vs. NYG this week. I just traded for Thomas to add depth at RB but I have such a hard time sitting LT (my 1st rd pick) even with the bad start he has had. The other option I have would be to play them both and sit either Greg Jennings or one of the Steve Smith's (I have them both). This is a PPR league. What route would you go?

I'll be happy to help with yours, just leave a link.

I'd be tempted to sit Steve Smith (CAR) and play both Thomas and LT2. CAR is a mess right now and I'd have a hard time starting anyone on that team.

Please help with mine

I agree with hezagenius...I think Steve Smith will probably have a decent game against a horrible defense, but I like LT and Thomas better, and they both tend to catch some balls so you will still get the ppr. Good luck ;-D

You definitely cannot sit LT this week. He finds ways to tear it up against Denver.

As for the second choice, I have to say keep it as is, sit PThomas. First, PThomas is fighting for the starting spot with two others, and is not even set to return this week. He might get the most of the carries, but I think that this game will turn into a passing game, which also limits his carries.

Even though Carolina is pretty bad right now, I can't see you benching SSmith (either of them for that matter because it will be a passing game for NYG also).

LT, and keep the WRs as is. Good luck!

Stick with your WRs and roll with Pierre... LT does not excite me for this matchup.
