Gamble with Nicks on Monday Night?? WHIR

[gmoney973]

My team is banged up so have limited options on who to start. If Nicks is declared out on monday before the game I would be screwed basically

I was thinking of starting Gresham in the flex slot

THIS IS PPR

QB Sanchez
WR1 B Marshall
WR2 D Henderson???
Flex (RB/WR/TE): OPEN
TE Vernon Davis
RB1 Ray Rice
RB2 Cad Williams

Bench
C Newton
S Bradford
S Jackson
H Nicks
J Gresham
K Moreno
Mike Thomas
J Addai

IR P Manning
IR D Amendola

No health info to help. Gruesome week goes w/out saying. That said, Gresham looks to be best play. Henderson off of waivers? He is downplayed in media but with Colston and others out, he may be vital.

Well I would just wait until just before your lineup has to be in and try to find everything you can on Nicks. If its still looking pretty iffy then I would just start Gresham. But you gotta remember, the Giants NEED Nicks, and they lost week one. You cant start an NFL season and make the playoffs. Well, you can, it just does not happen very often.

Once the 4:30 games are played I won't be able to drop anyone.

I guess I have 2 other options:

I could drop Peyton Manning and put Steven Jackson on IR and pick up someone like Hixon or Brandon Gibson for Monday insurance...I looks like Manning won't play this year

or I can hope either Sjax or Nicks play on Monday then I could start Caddy at RB and Sjax at Flex if Nicks is out but I doubt that would be a good move considering what Giants did to hightower.
