Guys, I have a lineup question for you and was hoping for some advice. In our league we start 3 WR's, 2 RB's and a Flex. It's a 12 team league if anyone is interested. Here are my options and my thoughts, basically I am unsure on my flex and one of my WR positions:
RB:
Deangelo Williams - starting
Joseph Addai- starting.
Brandon Jackson: don't think its a wise move for me to start him in my flex position because the bears strength on D is their run D. However, when faced with a tough decision with my flex i typically lean to a RB because of the greater chance of getting in the end zone.
Donald Brown- he took some carries away from addai last week and was able to get in the end zone. i think he'll have somewhat similar results but with so many weapons on the colts offense its difficult for him to get in the end zone. plus starting 2 RB's on one team is generally not recommended.
WR:
Reggie Wayne: Definitely Starting
Marques Colston: Starting, typically plays better at home and on turf
Mario Manningham: Was thought to be #3 WR in NY but is playing like a # 1 or # 2 for them and seems to be a go to guy for Eli. as of now i'm leaning towards starting Mario as my # 3 WR
Steve Breaston: concerned about Breaston's limited practice this week and Oak's secondary is decent. With Breaston as their # 2 I figured he'd get me about 8 or 9 pts a game. Last week was rough starting him.
Mike Wallace - basically keeping him on my bench until Big Ben comes back. don't see how he's going to do much with how pitt's offense is struggling right now just to get a first down.
Devery Henderson- like Colston he seems to play better and get td's at home/on turf. think he's a longshot for me to start but NO could put up a bunch of points at home vs ATL.
RB:
Deangelo Williams - starting
Joseph Addai- starting.
Brandon Jackson: don't think its a wise move for me to start him in my flex position because the bears strength on D is their run D. However, when faced with a tough decision with my flex i typically lean to a RB because of the greater chance of getting in the end zone.
