Hey guys, I've been playing fantasy football for seven years and I've won almost 50% of the leagues I've played in and in almost every case, I've been a playoff team. I've played in very competitive leagues and pathetically terrible leagues and I'm very good at objectively evaluating players and start/sit advice. Feel free to ask questions and I'll give you my suggestion -- please include any specific league rules (PPR, 6 pt passing TDs, etc.).
Oh, and most importantly, never take advice that goes against your gut feeling -- there's nothing worse than benching the guy you believe in, only to see him blow up for a huge game on your bench.
Ask Away.

For this week or the rest of the season?
Edit: If it's this week, you start Bennet and Morgan...over the course of the season, I'd want to wait to see this weeks game before you dropped one (depending on the league size). I don't buy into Bennet in the long run, but I think he's the safest of the three, especially in a PPR -- Morgan and Robinson have more upside though.
Note: I'm not trying to come off as a condescending prick, haha, I'm just offering some help...I often see people get attached to their "own" players, disabling them from making objective decisions.

I am just talking about this week. You can give me your opinion on how they will do over the season as well.

16 team ppr league with 3 wr 2 rb 2 flex spots
Our starting WRs are Calvin Johnson, Steve Smith, and Morgan and for flex we got Fred Jackson and Bennet starting, but we drafted Laurent Robinson late cause of his good pre season and Averys foot injury.

Gotcha. Well, I think you definitely start Morgan. In a standard league, I *might* take a risk on Robinson over Bennet (but that's doubtful)...in a PPR, you have to go with Bennet after seeing all the targets he got last week.

Alright my league is a standard 10 team league(4pts pass td). This is my team:
QB- Aaron Rodgers
RB- Michael Turner
RB- Frank Gore
Flex- Thomas Jones
WR- Vincent Jackson
WR-Kevin Walter
TE- John Carlson
D/ST- Ravens
K- Jason Elam
BN-Santana Moss
LeSean McCoy
Matt Schaub
Mike Bell
Ted Ginn Jr
Laveranues Coles
Chargers
Thoughts on my team? Prob going to start Santana Moss this week, washington is playing Stl and Walter is still questionable. Would you trade Thomas Jones and Ravens D for Roddy White? Thanks

I don't trust Santana Moss ever and I'd look to trade him (maybe aim for a player like Hines Ward or DeSean Jackson). As for this week though, I'd start Moss over Walter for the simple reason that the Rams are the worst team in the NFL and they're on the road.
As for the possible trade, I'd do it. White is an upgrade over Jones and the Ravens DEF is irrelevant. You'll get better results using FA defenses and the Chargers throughout the year. I'm not sure if you watched the Jet game last week, but Jones' numbers looked a lot better than he did in the game. Leon Washington is stealing a lot of touches.

Yeah I was pretty sure I was going to do this trade just double checking, if it goes through I'll have to really depend on match ups for my D/ST

I'm a little worried about Forte in PPRs after seeing Cutler target him 0 times last week and I like Moreno as the year goes on -- Denver is in love with him and want him to take the full-time job. I'm worried about Royal, but only if you had highly increased expectations for him this year. He won't get to the 90 receptions of last year.

I'd definitely go with Lee Evans. I think Crayton is a crap shoot for big plays -- I wouldn't rule that out this week, but I think Royal is definitely the safer play. Bench Crayton.
