***Official Start & Sit Thread***

[Future24]

With Week 1 just 5 days away from kicking off, I think it's time to start talking about who to start and who to sit. Let's come together here and help each other win our leagues!

[Future24]

I have Ahmad Bradshaw who plays against Washington. Now the Redskins do not scare me at all, its his load he has to share with Brandon Jacobs, who I also have.

On the other hand I have Joseph Addai sitting on my bench. He plays against Houston what it looks like to be without Peyton Manning. The Texans defense is not very good, and with Collins in there Addai should get a lot of touches. So I'm really on the fence here.

I know Bradshaw should probably be starting, but with Manning missing the game, it makes Addai a little more enticing.

[dirtdickens]

I love the idea for this thread.
Start Addai, Texans D is not very good like you said.
Also, that site I told you about, on TUES/WED they have a points projection and start/sit feat
ure every week. It starts slow the first few weeks while everyone figures eberything out but then they are dead on the rest of teh year.

Ended up with Dallas D on draft day but they play the Jets week 1... so I'm considering plugging in Arizona who plays against Carolina or Cleveland who plays against the Bengals. Thoughts?

[nelsong6969]

cant really go wrong with any defense playing the bengals, this coming from a dissapointed bengals fan year after year

I wouldn't expect the Jets to do much damage but I would go with Cleveland vs Carolina.

[Future24]

Dallas Clark, Kendricks, or J.Cook? And if you had to pick just between Kendricks and Cook who would you start?

[zbrownlee]

Kolb vs panthers
Orton vs raiders
Flacco vs Steelers

flacco is my starter But I'm thinking of starting Orton for week 1, thoughts?

I'd go with Orton or Kolb. Flacco won't do anything for you. I'm leaning towards Orton.

[Matt1744]

Stafford vs Tampa
Bradford vs Philly

I feel like stafford will score more points in the games he is in so im leaning towards him

Felix Jones vs Jets
Manningham vs Redskins

Thoughts?

[NYSackExchange]

For my flex

Dwayne Bowe vs Bills
Dez Bryant @ Jets
Deangelo Williams @ Cardinals

Leaning towards Bowe but Cards run D was awful last year.

[Prozium913]

Romo vs. NYJ or Stafford vs. TB? Leaning toward Stafford starting Week 1.

Stafford. Manningham.

For my flex

Dwayne Bowe vs Bills
Dez Bryant @ Jets
Deangelo Williams @ Cardinals

Leaning towards Bowe but Cards run D was awful last year.

PPR? If so go with Bowe, if not, Dwill.

Romo vs. NYJ or Stafford vs. TB? Leaning toward Stafford starting Week 1.

Stafford.

[Prozium913]

Stafford.

Thanks man.

3 WR league. I got:

Dez Bryant
Percy Harvin
Johnny Knox
Malcom Floyd
Pierre Garcon
Lance Moore

I know they're all "average" WRs but who do I start?

[joebus36]

Boldin vs Pitt or Manningham vs WAS?

Also

Wells vs CAR or Addai vs HOU

[JBevan]

I'd probably go with Bryant, Knox and Floyd there.

Who do I start at my flex?
Thomas Jones vs. Buf
Malcolm Floyd vs. Min
Ben Tate vs. Ind
Lee Evans vs. Pit

[Matt1744]

Thanks Future24

[OrdoAbchao]

For week 1

Dallas Clark @ HOU with no Manning

Jimmy Graham @ GB

[dirtdickens]

Kolb. The Panthers might habe the worst team in the last 4 years. That defense couldnt stop Dalton to Green. The Broncos have a nice matchup but they are switching to a power run offense.

Kolb vs panthers
Orton vs raiders
Flacco vs Steelers

flacco is my starter But I'm thinking of starting Orton for week 1, thoughts?

[dirtdickens]

Wells is gonna run wild on the panthers, no dts and Beason is hurt. Manningham is the better option in PPR, in non PPR its a toss up.

Boldin vs Pitt or Manningham vs WAS?

Also

Wells vs CAR or Addai vs HOU

[dirtdickens]

Reports coming out that Cassel may miss week one. Deangelo is gonna be behind early and they are gonna be throwing. Bryant pulls a tough D, but has more chances to make plays.

For my flex

Dwayne Bowe vs Bills
Dez Bryant @ Jets
Deangelo Williams @ Cardinals

Leaning towards Bowe but Cards run D was awful last year.

[dirtdickens]

Guys, start posting your scoring if you want answers.
PPR or no?

[Pslim23]

at flex. ppr

b jacobs @was
malcom floyd vs minn
mcgahee vs oak
berrian @sd
nate Bur @TB

[Cittrulline]

mike vick vs. stl secondary? anybody? i'm thinking start. i also have cam newton, josh freeman and jason campbell.

EDIT: there's also my running back situation. i have pierre thomas (vs. gb) but i'm thinking of changing it to michael bush (vs. den) or jerome harris (vs. tb). bush vs. denver is looking real nice though.

[bigsexxyy]

at flex. ppr

b jacobs @was
malcom floyd vs minn
mcgahee vs oak
berrian @sd
nate Bur @TB

for me it would be a toss up between floyd and berrian

mine is 1 ppr

at my flex i have:
Hightower vs NYG
or Harvin vs. SD

so far i have Hightower in.

[OrdoAbchao]

For week 1

Dallas Clark @ HOU with no Manning

Jimmy Graham @ GB

non-ppr

[drmmrRT]

Just picked up ted ginn jr cuz i noticed hes sf's #1 receiver and he was a free agent. Will he ever be worth starting or just keep him on the bench in case of injury? my other receivers are manningham, bowe, d branch, and austin collie. starting bowe and mann.

edit: and what is a "PPR" league? kinda new to fantasy

edit 2: fuuuu nevermind. I see they have braylon as their number one now

[Future24]

Percy, Moore, Floyd. I don't like Knox or Garcon(Manning is out) and Dez Bryant has to go up against the Jets.

[dirtdickens]

One thing you need to know about WRs in fantasy football is that you want consistent guys. 8 points a game every game will beat 20 one game and 3 points for 5 games. Ginn is one of the inconsistent guys. Good thinking on starting Manningham and Bowe.

I agree with Moore and Percy, but in a clsoe matchup like the Jets/Cowboys a #2 WR's value increases because he will have more opportunities. They are going to go after Miles Austin and Witten, they cant cover all three.
