R/W Flex- Greene, Moreno, or Aromashodu?

Postby DallasFan85 » Sat Sep 11, 2010 3:21 am

Hey all. Non-ppr standard Yahoo league; I need a flex option. I decided to Start Jerome Harrison as my RB 2; sounds like all of you would agree based on what everyone has been saying. So do I go Shonn Greene (Bad match up), Knowshown Moreno (Don't know how healthy/how many snaps), or the dark horse Devin Aromashodu (could have a decent game; I predict a 60-70 yard, maybe 1 td game)?

Standard non-ppr 10 person yahoo.com league, starting 1 qb, 2 rb, 3 wr, 1 rb/wr, 1 te, 1 k, 1 def.

Qb: Phillip Rivers, Ben Roethlisburger
Rb: Maurice Jones-Drew, Shonn Greene, Knowshown Moreno, Jerome Harrison, Brandon Jacobs
Wr: Roddy White, Dwayne Bowe, Mike Wallace, Devin Aromashodu, Bernard Berrian
Te: Visanthe Shiancoe, Chris Cooley
K: David Akers
Def: Miami

Thanks all; will help in return!

Thanks for the help on mine!

From the guys you named, I like Greene at the flex just because you know theyll still put him to work. I know its against a stout defense, but you give him the ball enough and he's bound to pick up yards and maybe punch it in over the goaline. I dont like Knowshon and his isssues and I would say Aromashodu if he had a little more under his belt, but until week 1 passes and he shows me somn, Id go with Greene. Hope this helps!

Thanks very much my friend! I do agree with what you're saying; I definitely drafted Greene to be a strong No. 2 back, regardless of his match up.

Anyone else? (Bump)

I like Green here. Good #2 and will get the touches you need. Moreno's injury is a risk and Aroma isnt pleasant until he can prove it.

Can't expand on what prior repsones were except to agree and add that Green is you best and safest bet. 2nd option for me would be Aromashodu (who could be a real sleeper this year).

Please Help me back at;

I don't like Greene's matchup this week, either, but your alternatives are a guy that isn't 100% and may not exceed 15 touches, and aromashodu, who i just can't count on either. I'd stick with Greene.

Greene easily. This isn't the Ravens D of the early 2000's. It's a solid unit, but not worthy of benching a quality player like Shonn.

help please
