NFL Start ‘Em or Sit ‘Em Advice

Question: I got off to a terrible start going 1-5 and really need a win. Which RB should I start in week 7?

Darren Sproles or Ryan Torain?

Sproles is having a great year and has been consistent. Ryan Torain is capable of having a huge game, but you can’t trust Shanahan. All help is appreciated.

Answer:

Sproles will be your best option here. You know what you’re going to get when he touches the ball where Torain remains an uncertainty as you never know which back will get the bulk of carries any given Sunday. I would start Darren Sproles.

Question : Fantasy Football Week 6 Sit/Start?

I need some help selecting my WRs for week 6.  Pick three starters.

WR:
Jeremy Maclin @ WAS
Dez Bryant @NE
Santana Moss vs. PHI
Santonio Holmes vs. MIA
Kevin Walter @ BAL

Thanks.

Answer:

Maclin – Maclin has been solid every week.
Dez – The Patriots corners are awful and Romo is going to be throwing a lot in order to keep up with Brady
Holmes – Miami is terrible. Holmes should have a big game.

Question: Who should I start in the flex for week 5, Beanie Wells or Stevan Ridley?

Beanie Wells has been extremely productive so far, but I’m concerned with Beanie Wells lingering injury and he’s facing a touch Minnesota defense. Who would you go with and why? Stevan Ridley is playing against the Giants.

Best answer:

Definitely start Beanie Wells. I made the same mistake by sitting Wells last week. The reason I say you start him is because he gets the outright starting postion unlike Stevan Ridley, who just has a backup role on New England. Wells also said he he’s in tune with his offensive line. The Vikings may have a good defensive line, but so do the Giants. I expect Wells to put up good numbers this week.

Question: Which RB should I start in week 4?

Since Adrian Peterson and Miles Austin are on their bye week, I have the option of playing Jahvid Best or Ahmad Bradshaw this week. However, since Best is somewhat injured and Bradshaw has to go against Chicago’s defense, I would have to assume im going to play Bradshaw, but I hate playing two players from the same team. I was going to play Hakeem Nicks at WR but my other options are Chad Johnson who hasnt done much or Malcolm Floyd. Any suggestions?

Answer:

Jahvid Best is probably still hurt so check his status on Sunday make your moves accordingly. I think Bradshaw is going to have a tough week, but if he’s the best option you have, he is the #1 RB for the Giants. I understand your concerns about having two players from the same team by playing both Nicks and Bradshaw, but sometimes it works in your favor, and at least it’s not players at the same position (I have Roddy White and Julio Jones on my team). You should expect solid production from either Nicks or Bradshaw.

Question: Do I start or sit Marques Colston in week 4?

Im currently starting Brandon Lloyd, Roddy White, and Nate Washington. I just picked up Marques Colston. Would you start him over one of my starting wide receivers or would you give him another week?

Answer:

You have a nice wide receiver corp. Colston has been out with a fractured collar bone for a while and may seem a bit soft at first. Give him a week to get back to full strength. I’m looking for him to put up big numbers later in the season.

Question: Week 5 start/sit: Brandon Pettigrew (v. CHI) or Jared Cook (v. PIT)?

Jared Cook seems explosive and should get more looks, especially with Kenny Britt out. Is he worth starting this week over Pettigrew? Both teams are facing tough defenses, but Pettigrew vs. Chicago seems like the better match up.

Answer:

I would keep Jared Cook on the bench for 1 more week just to be safe.

Question – Which players do I go with in my PPR league?

I have to start two players at WR and another in the Flex out of the following plaCIN

Hakeem Nicks @ ARI
Jeremy Maclin @ SF
Brandon Marshall @ SD
Arian Foster @ PIT
Dexter McCluster @ MIN

Answer:

Well done on your draft sir, this must be an 8 or 10 team league. This is an easy question as  Hakeem Nicks and Brandon Marshall should be your starting wideouts with Arian Foster in your Flex. Out of curiosity, who are your starting runningbacks?
