Injury plagued and had to go to waivers for some. Help.

Postby Misfit Toys » Sun Jan 03, 2010 10:27 am

Ok everyone This is for all the marbles. What would you do if you were me. I am questioning Fred Jackson this week with bell but I think Indy has given up on this season and Jackson is so close to 1000 yds that they may work him today. Also if there is anything else that you think I should change let me know. I will help with yours.

Yes, Freddie over Bell but I'd consider using Crabtree over meacham too. With Brees out, don't know how many of his usual deep tosses Meachem will get today.

Gotta go Crabtree over S Smith. Look at the matchups, and Minn will destroy the Giants with the playoffs on the line. Did you watch the pathetic Giant performance last week? Crabtree will go all out for stats.

Thx for the help on mine...

I agree that Crabtree must be started but nobody else on your bench looks better than those you've already got starting..

Good luck!

What about Bell over Smith for a flex?

I would start M Bell as your flex RB / WR , bench Meachem, and keep Steve Smith in

Thomas is already ruled along with Brees so that leaves Bush and Bell. Bell is the better option. Plus RB's usually get more touches then a WR so if you have a flex player, you shoudl try to start a RB

I'd start Crabtree over Meachem. Brees is sitting, who knows how long Meachem will play. Crab tree has been building up some chemistry with Smith in recent weeks and has big game potential this week against STL.

Definitely keep S. Smith in, he is one of the most consistent receivers in the game.
Keep Fred Jackson in. They are going to be working him to get him to 1000 yards.

Not sure how much Bell is suppose to play, but if he is due for a substantial role, then I would start him over Mo. Morris.
