Ah ... yeah I would make a change in your starting lineup. Miles Austin should start over Woodhead. I know it is Kitna throwing him the ball, but he still produced last week in that situation and the Cowboys will once again be airing it out early and often against the Packers. LeGarrette Blount should be considered for your RB2 slot, too. DeAngelo was injured and there is no definite he plays this week. Even if he does, there is no guarantee he does anything worthwhile fantasy-wise.
I like both Folk and Carpenter equally moving forward. Both on offenses good enough to get into the red zone, but not necessarily high powered enough to punch it in every time and good enough on defense to keep games close where field goals matter. You could flip a coin on that one, IMO.
Oakland's defense just last week embarassed the Seahawks. No reason to think the Giants, who are a much better overall football team, won't do the same.
you think austin will be able to get me more than the consitant 11-12 points woodhead has been getting me, seems like austin struggled to get 12 points against jags, one of the worst defenses against the pass...i know i'm guarentted 12 with woodhead cus him being used as a rb, he will always get me 12 points...with miles being a wr, and lossing romo, i think his ceiling might be 12, am i wrong to think this?
atlanta is coming off a bye, and ranked in the top 10 against defenses, blount seems kind of a scary play?
maybe woodhead in d.wills spot.... and miles in woodheads spot?

Not saying you're wrong in thinking that, just that sometimes as fantasy owners we tend to overthink things to a point where we kill ourselves. Miles Austin didn't have trouble connecting with Kitna chemistry-wise. It isn't just a matter of looking at final stats, but how he fared compared to other options. After Witten, Austin was Kitna's favorite target Sunday. I think that will help him moving forward. Woodhead is a feast or famine play, in my opinion, on a Patriots team that never can commit to one RB or even one WR this season.
1. Yes. I'm kicking myself for not picking him up a few weeks ago. I'm not saying he'll get five TD's every week, but he plays for the perfect offense: they can move the ball, but not in the red zone.
2. Giants. Best defense of the bunch with the best match-up of the week.
3. Get DeAngelo out for Blount. He's hurt, and he's been awful this year. Also, as bad as Austin was last week with Kitna...you can't sit him for Woodhead. He's your stud, and while Woodhead has a good match-up, he's a third down RB.
