Yuck. I think I'd have to lean towards Shonn Green over Pierce ROS. The Ravens backfield is way too muddled for my taste.

Standard Scoring, no ppr:
Asiata vs Atlanta
or
Pierre Thomas vs Dallas?

Leaning Johnson and Patterson, but the Bucs D is so bad, I'm thinking about putting in Wheaton...

I noticed Moreno was available and picked him up instead. I think that is the least worst of the three for RoS.

Asiata.

Tough call, Luck is one of those QBs that spreads the love between like 8 receivers and NO loves their RB committee, I know they mentioned Khiry getting goal-line opportunities and I imagine there will be some against Dallas. I'd probably go with Khiry.

Having trouble picking an RB1\2 this week. I currently have Sproles and Bradshaw starting with Lacy on my bench due to his performance this season so far. However Lacy does have a favorable matchup against Chicago and Sproles plays the 49ers in San Fran. Scoring is standard ESPN non ppr

If at the end of a war story you feel that some tiny bit of rectitude has been salvaged from the larger waste, you have been made the victim of a very old and terrible lie
Stafford vs. Jets or Rivers vs. Jaguars?

Also am I crazy for thinking Delanie Walker (assuming he plays) might be a sneaky flex play with Locker out?

Pretty close, but I have to lean towards Thomas. He'll get fewer touches than Asiata, but he's got a better chance of making them count.

I feel like you guys may have discussed this at length already but,

With Charlie Whitehurst starting over Jake Locker vs the Colts, is it a fair assumption that Kendall Wright gets a bump in PPR value?

Assumptions are that Whitehurst will check it down a ton, and also there will be a lot of garbage time passing.

In a 10-person .5 ppr league and injuries and byes are killing me at RB. My flex options are Sankey, Evans, McKinnon, and Taliaferro. I also have both Martellus Bennett and Vernon Davis, so I might just start one of them in the flex instead, assuming Davis can play.

I'd go with VJax simply because I'm starting him myself this week. Also start Luck because it's a division game and he punish hosed the Jags last week.

^^I'd imagine Sankey getting some garbage time points. Don't see that one being close. If not and Davis plays, you gotta flex him. Oops meant this for the guy above the guy above me, R.D.

Yeah the only reason I listed him is because, as always, he's listed as questionable but I'm sure he'll play. Sat Cooks for Allen. Fingers crossed. Thanks man.

Could use some bye week FLEX insight (standard Yahoo):

Chris Johnson vs Jets
Allen Robinson vs Jax

I think CJ?K is the better conservative play, since I already have the edge in this matchup. But I just dropped Wright for Robinson (which I instantly regretted once someone picked up Wright, but he was bench player barring two injuries) and feel like I need to justify my gamble..

I like Asiata a lot. I don't think the Ravens are good, I think the planets just aligned and the Bucs melted down.

Donald Brown vs JAX, though

Assumptions are that Whitehurst will check it down a ton, and also there will be a lot of garbage time passing.

Whitehurst is probably the worst QB starting this week and that includes the rookies, EJ Manuel, Ryan Fitzpatrick, the list goes on. I wouldn't make too many assumptions about what's going to happen there. Indy also completely shut down arguably a more talented offense in Jacksonville with a QB in Henne who had at least shown some ability to be an NFL starter over the years.

I think Blount's going to get some garbage time love against lovely Tampa. I also have a feeling Sankey gets significant garbage time love against Indy, but I can't really sit Vereen in PPR, can I?

I agree with this. Rivers could have a huge day, or have a pedistrian 1TD, no picks, 250 yards or less type day. It's a gamble. Whereas you know you're going to get a lot of Cutler throwing all over the place against GB. Even if he does put up some picks he'll have enough passes down to guarantee some TDs and a lot of yards.
