Fantasy Football 2009: Start 'Em, Sit 'Em, Trade 'Em

[Gadritan]

Hey, did I mention that I'm so deep, I'm benching Brandon Jacobs?

I'm so deep, I shifted one of your kidneys.

[Doombard]

is pierre thomas gonna play? if not then FUCK. I have derrick ward on the bench but apparently cadillac is gonna start ahead of him? >< should I start ward or pick up cadillac. also fred jackson is available

[Tyche]

Get Williams.

Oh, Gad, Did you see that I picked up Eddie Royal? I cannot find a fault with my team now.

Indeed it is a sexy line up. You've got killer fucking depth man.

Ward is gonna be the second 2 in the 2-2-1 setup they plan on using. Cadillac plays the first 2 series, then Ward for 2, then Graham for 1. The guy you'd wanna play out of that backfield is Graham honestly, because the guy that's on the 1 series load is also the guy they plan on using in short yardage and goal line. But yea, if I were in your situation I'd possibly drop Ward and pick up Fred Jackson for the week

[Tyche]

Indeed it is a sexy line up. You've got killer fucking depth man.

And I'll still manage to go 2-11.

any league where you can 'pick up' eddie royal is not worth bragging about being in

he traded for him kthx

and I know I'm in a crappy situation with my flex position

[Gadritan]

Same here. I'm going to have to gamble with it some.

Edit: Pretty much between H.Ward and Bradshaw.

still willing to bet your league is awful

It's better than living in VA.

This. I'd like to think my league is solid, 12/12 full attendance for our online draft and a very solid, though-out scoring system that has ironed out most of the growing pains after the first year.

[tyven]

if his team is so deep he is benching jacobs in a 12 man league you are riddled with idiots.

[Gadritan]

It's because he's got Bush starting. NO is playing DET. Giants have to play the Skins. It's a smart pick.

[volcanicweather]

Wrong again, he's benching Jacobs (facing a newly strengthened WAS defense) because he's starting Reggie Bush (who should get increased touches with no Thomas against DET) and Kevin Smith against the Saints. Personally I get the Bush move, but I'd go for Jacobs over Smith if it was me.

[Tyche]

Not really, because I'm starting Reggie Bush (5th round), and Kevin Smith (3rd round). I just drafted, like, 5 or 6 RBs to bait trades. As soon as Leon Washington starts accumulating the most yards from scrimmage again, I'll dump him for another WR, beings I'm still pretty shallow there, albeit, not as much now as I was.

I have...
Tom Brady
Chad Pennington
Brandon Jacobs
Kevin Smith
Reggie Bush
Leon Washington
Carnell Williams
Marques Colston
Eddie Royal
Donnie Avery
Michael Jenkins
Dallas Clark
Nate Kaeding
Philly D

[GImpers]

Which 2 of the following should I play this week?

Donald Driver vs. CHI
Lee Evans vs. NE
Chris Henry vs. DEN

I'm thinking Driver and Henry, but I have this feeling I'm going to be sorry I benched Evans.

[tyven]

so what you are saying is that his team isnt that deep, he just has good matchups for his second and third RBs

[Tyche]

Oh, and Kevin Smith is going to be a top 10 back this year. Just FYI.

Definitely deep at running back. My 4th RB led the NFL in all purpose yards.

Edit: Evans and Henry

[Gadritan]

but I'd go for Jacobs over Smith if it was me.

I think I'd probably still go with Smith. NO was 23rd in total def last year. How do you think it is they managed to be the #1 offense in the NFL but were LAST in their division with an 8-8 record? It's because they're def stinks. Smith will do work.
