New guy to FF: need help with Week 1 starters

Postby matt21484 » Thu Sep 09, 2010 8:59 am

This is my first year in a Fantasy league. I've listed my team below with an * indicating my current starters. I'm locked in with Peyton and Moss and my TE, G. Olsen. Everyone else is still a toss up as I'm not too sure who to start/sit. I just picked up Devery Henderson and dropped Golden Tate since he'll be playing today and I figure I can bench him for the weekend games. This is a yahoo PPR league. Thanks everyone!

*Peyton Manning
*Randy Moss
*Marques Colston
*LeSean McCoy
*Felix Jones
*Greg Olsen
*Devery Henderson

Bench:
Thomas Jones
Mike Sims-Walker
Santonio Holmes
Laurence Maroney
Tim Tebow
Ricky Williams

Definitly replace Felix Jones with Ricky Williams, everything else looks pretty good unless it looks like you have Henderson as a flex... if thats the case put in Thomas Jones instead- always start a RB for flex. Also, not sure what you ment by playing Henderson tonight then bench him for the weekend, but once the player plays for your fantasy team, you cant bench him till Tuesday when Week 1 is over with.

Thanks for the quick reply, I've updated my roster a bit so let me know what you think.

*Peyton Manning (@ HOU)
*Randy Moss (Cin)
*Marques Colston (Min)
*LeSean McCoy (GB)
*Ricky Williams (@ Buf)
*Greg Olsen (Det)
*Thomas Jones (SD) - Flex Position (RB/WR)

Bench:
Devery Henderson
Mike Sims-Walker
Santonio Holmes
Laurence Maroney
Tim Tebow
Felix Jones

EDIT: forgot to mention Bears defense (DET)

Notch, you were correct in that Henderson is in the Flex position, so I dropped him off the starter slot and brougt up Thomas Jones (vs SD). I think I mis-wrote about dropping Henderson after "the weekend games." I meant to say I could just bench him after this week since he's not a No 1 receiver.
This is a PPR league as well.
