Crazy Starts, Or Is It? (WHIR)

Postby ElGalloGigante » Fri Sep 24, 2010 10:27 am

I'm rolling into Week 3 with the following guys starting (Standard Scoring, no PPR):

QB: Aaron Rodgers (Rivalry game against CHI DEF)
RB: Cedric Benson (Possible cupcake game against CAR)
RB: Peyton Hillis (Facing a BAL DEF that hasn't given up a RB TD)
WR: Wes Welker (BUF DEF, no brainer)
WR: Mark Clayton (WAS DEF, but DEF did face stout PASS O)
TE: Marcedes Lewis (Getting hot and facing underperforming PHI DEF)
W/R: Louis Murphy (With QB Gradkowski getting the start, looks good)
K: Sebastian Janikowski
D: Pittsburgh Steelers

So that leaves these guys riding the pine this week:
QB: Donovan McNabb (Putting up monster PASS YRDs and facing STL DEF)
RB: Ronnie Brown, Ricky Williams (NYJ DEF, would be a gamble...but more so than Hillis?)
WR: Marques Colston, Pierre Garcon*, Johnny Knox (Should I ever sit Colston? Cutler has looked good too, so Knox?)
TE: Zach Miller (I like him more with QB Campbell)

* Pierre Garcon may be out the door for another underachiever, Shonn Greene.

Pick it apart and let me know what you would do. Thanks!

I would go with Brown over Hillis for sure. I would also go Colston over Murphy.

I like some of it.. sitting ronnie brown cuz hillis snakes goalline touches seems a bit crazy to me though. I'd also possibly go with Colston over Murphy, but thats almost a toss up. Colston has to deal with an offense that spreads the ball around quite a bit, but he does seem to be a primary target.

help with mine?

I've gotta go with the crowd here and advise you to start the better player on the better team with Brown and Colston.

I agree with everyone else.

No way you sit Brown for Hillis, especially with Hillis facing Baltimore.

Colston should also be an every week starter. Keep Murphy out.
