NFL Start ‘Em or Sit ‘Em Advice

Question: Which WR should I start after Roddy White… Nate Washington or Deion Branch?

Which 2 wide receivers would you play? I have Roddy White, Nate Washington, Deion Branch, and Jabar Gaffney. Feel free to give your reason behind the choice as well.  Thank you.

Best answer:

I would go with Deion Branch. Now that he’s back with Tom Brady, he’s a much better option than Nate Washington and Jabar Gaffney. Nate Washington will get lots of looks with Kenny Britt out. However, I would still take the receiver that’s paired up with Brady although Brady will mostly throw to Wes Welker and Rob Gronkowski.

Question: Who should I start in Week 9?

Who should I start this week? Rashard Mendenhall against BAL or Knowshon Moreno against OAK?

Answer:

Although Mendenhall is up against a tough Baltimore defense. He is going to be getting almost all of the caries while Knowshon will be splitting carries with Willies McGahee.  Mendenhall is a much better back and has show that he can put up numbers regardless of what opposing defense he is facing.

Question: What receiver should I start in week 12?

I am currently starting Larry Fitzgerald, who plays the Eagles who have had a very solid pass defense all year long. I also plan on starting Antonio Brown vs. CIN. Brown has been on fire and the Bengals have been getting beat the last few games by WRs.

My other options are:

Brandon Marshall vs. WAS
Laurent Robinson vs. BUF

Should I start Brandon Marshall over Larry Fitzgerald or Antonio Brown?

Answer:

I am in the same position. I would sit Larry Fitzgerald, especially with Kolb out. I actually like Laurent Robinson who has played well with Tony Romo all season long with Miles Austin out. If Kolb starts on Sunday, I may put Fitzgerlad back in the lineup. I would actually put in Marshall though. He is going to get his receptions, the only question is if he’ll turn those receptions into any big yards. He is the only thing the Dolphins have going for them.

Question: Need Week 7 RB Start/Sit/Drop Help.

I’m in a PPR league and have 2 RB slots. I need help picking my RBs for Week 7.

This is a PPR league. 2 RB slots.

I currently have:
Chris Johnson (BYE)
Ryan Grant vs @ CLE
Laurence Maroney @ TB
Donald Brown @ STL

I planned on playing Ryan Grant and Laurence Maroney, but I just traded for Donald Brown. I picked up Maroney just to play him this week.

Willie Parker is also on the wire and he’ll be available tomorrow morning. I know he isn’t the primary RB for the Steelers, but if he start being the top guy again, he would be a good pickup.

I was considering dropping Maroney to try to pick up Parker, and playing Grant and Brown this week. What do you think?

Answer:

I would play Donald Brown and Ryan Grant this week. Willie Parker isn’t what he used to be so don’t bother trying to pick hum up off waivers. Mendenhall is Pittsburgh’s guy, Parker will ride the bench.

Question: Week 7 running back sit/start?

I have to start either James Starks or Mike Tolbert because of bye week. I also could pick up and play Ryan Torain, Knowshon Moreno, or LaDanian Tomlinson. I can’t know what to do. Help me out.

Best answer:

Monitor the Redskins RB situation Sunday morning. If Torain is announced as the starter, he’s the guy that you want to pick up. If Hightower starts then Torain could end up with single-digit touches, in which case go with the premier TD vulture, Mike Tolbert.

Who should I sit or start in week 7?

I’m in a 16 team league.

RB: Rashard Mendenhall, Tashard Choice, Fred Jackson – Pick 2

WR: Roy Williams or Johnny Knox

Answer:

Jackson should be on the bench unless Lynch gets hurt. Start Rashard and Tashard.

I’d start Knox, because he’s scoring each week and the Bengal’s pass rush took a major with DE Odom out. Cutler should have plenty of time to pass with the Bengal’s best pass rusher out of the game.

Question: Who do I start? Tim Tebow or Cam Newton?

I am having difficulty this week trying to decide who to start at QB in my fantasy football league. Cam Newton is projected to get 24 points against Washington while Tim Tebow is projected to get 16 points against Miami. Although there is a tremendous amount of upside in playing Cam Newton based on the projected points its still hard to think of sitting Tebow against the second worst pass defense in the league

Cam Newton has been great getting me 25+ points all season besides two bad games where he still got 15 and 17. They can both run and both have deep pass weapons. I can’t decide so I am seeking some feedback from others. Who should I start and why? All advice is appreciated.

Answer:

How can you not start Cam Newton after the start he has gotten off to. The guy has been a fantasy monster so far this year. I’m not sold on Tim Tebow yet. The guy can run, but his passing is awful.
