7-1, am I set for the rest of the season and playoffs? WHIR

Postby 49ersavior » Fri Nov 06, 2009 7:40 pm

12 Team League, no ppr, H2H standard scoring Cbs sports league.

We start 1 QB, 2RB, 3WR, 1 TE, 1DST

QB: Rodgers, Cutler
RB: Jones-Drew, Jacobs, Mendenhall, B. Wells
WR: Welker, Holmes, Sims-Walker, B. Edwards, Manningham
TE: Shockey
K: N. Kaeding
DST: 49ers (been playing the matchups since about week 3)

I started out 1-1 and some key acquisitions over the weeks off the ww in mendy and msw have helped me win six straight. I'm looking at this roster and don't see any holes really, other that not having a team like the saints on d. Tips, can I run the table?

You're set at QB, Rodgers is a stud, and if anyhting happens to him, Cutler should be adequate.

MJD is a beast, between the other 3 backs on your roster, matchups should be in your favor more weeks than not

Outside of Welker, your WR's scare me - MSW has been very hit or miss (huge games, suspension, clunker) and he's always had a hard time staying healthy. Holmes is capable of greatness - but is inconsistent - same can be said of Edwards & Manningham.

Shockey is fine at TE, and Kaeding is fine at K.

AS long as you can continue to play the matchups - D/ST should get you by.

Over all, I see 3 real difference makers on your squad - Rodgers, MJD, Welker - you have 2 guys who have a legitimate shot at finishing #1 overall at their positions, and Welker is a top 5 WR in terms of PPG. Outside of that, you need to do the weekly juggling act based on matchups - which can work out wonderfully or be extraordinarily frustrating seeing a bunch of points left on the bench.

nice job going 7-1, I agree Rogers is a stud and cutler an adiqute backup to not totally screw you if Rogers goes down.

honestly, I'm not totally in love with your running backs, MJD is a obvious stud, but your starting 2, Jacobs has been very inffective, only 2 TD and has yet to break 100 yards this season. (also has amad bradshaw stealing carries) Wells is stil stuck in Hightowers shadow and Mendenhall can't hang on to the football. I'd think about making a move to try and upgrade here.

Welker is a stud WR, no problem there, the rest are hit or miss...

TE is pretty solid, and kicker... who cares? lol

49ers are a good DST most weeks, but check to make sure your league allows add drops during playoffs. if they don't, grab one a week or 2 early who has decent matchup weeks 14-16.

Good luck,

help me out please?
