Trouble w/ my FLEX option for this week -- WHIR!!

[sylence2k2]

Hey all, Here is my lineup this week -

RB - Bradshaw
RB - Ivory

WR - Harvin
WR - S. Smith (GIants)

Here are my options for flex -

Branch (WR) - Mcfadden (RB) or Bush (RB)

I think I am leaning towards Branch who had a decent game against the Chargers earlier in the year. But please let me know your thoughts.

WHIR as always!

I would go with Branch here. Brady completely ignored Brandon Tate last week so it seems like Branch will get the majority of non-Welker pass attempts. The Patriots don't have much of a run game, and playing against the Chargers will likely be a shootout so I expect a lot of passing yards for Brady which will be good for Branch.

Thanks for help with mine.

I'd go with Branch too, normally I love RBs and touches over WRs and the uncertainty of catches for flex plays, but the weird backfield split/hurt/whatever situation in Oakland is enough to make me stay away. Branch will get some looks, I feel like that's more reliable than possibly picking the wrong back out of Oakland and getting stuck with next to nothing for the day.

Help with mine? viewtopic.php?t=481861, thanks!

Thanks for the help on mine.

I give Branch a slight edge here. I think this game could turn into a shoot out and Branch looks like he picked up where he left off with Brady. I don't think Mcfadden will be back yet and I don't expect a huge day out of Bush. If you league gives points for receptions its a no brainer
