Sounds like Run DMC is out again Thursday, making Michael Bush a must-start. Looking for WR help? Might want to go after Laurent Robinson if he's still available in your league with Miles Austin out 2-4 weeks.

I scooped up Earl Bennett in both my leagues. Starting him in 1 for sure and have to decide between him and Manningham in the other...

Also took a flier on Ben Tate. I had an extra defense last week due to the bye week so I dropped them and grabbed Tate. I don't know how you start him over a starting RB but who knows.

There are a few starting RBs on other teams I would start him over. I'd go with Bennett for your team tho.

I'm debating between the following, and I feel like my guts good, but I dn't want to be winging it. I need to start one from each group:

RB - Darren Sproles against the Falcons, or Chris Johnson against the Panthers? My gut says go with Sproles here...

DEF/ST - Jets against NE, or Rams against the Browns? Again, my gut says go with the Rams...

Thoughts or Input is greatly appreciated!

I got Earl Bennett in 2/3 leagues. Though he wont start unless there is an injury, since all my byes are over.

Sproles is a must start for me. Who is other RB that is starting for sure?

I would play the Jets D. They always have a good scheme against the Pats. Probably knock a few sacks for sure. Maybe a pick.

I'm unfortunately not in that situation. My receivers are Bowe, Manningham, Wayne and now Bennett. Painter has rendered Wayne unstartable. I'm going to be playing the Manningham/Bennett game for the rest of the year. If Nicks is out this week, its hard not to start Manningham.

Don't care. Smith and Nelson were bench riders for me and I'm already gonna be in the playoffs; hoping that when he comes back he'll put me in a great position come playoff time.

Yeah, for me my WRs are loaded. N a PPR league I have starting Megatron, Maclin, Bowe and on the bench Julio Jones and Darius H-B (who sucks with Carson now). I also had Britt before the injury.

Can start 3 of these 4. Michael Bush, Mcgahee, SJax, and Mathews. Right now i have Mathews on the outside looking in. I want 2 play him but i just think the 3 i have in now are going to get the most points.Especially with tolbert hawking tds and receptions.

Fucking HATE fantasy football. I had Bush firmly locked in until 2 hours before the game last night when someone convinced me that Demarco Murray was the better play. Now Murray may have a good game but I doubt he puts up 30 points. :(

I still have Steven Jackson & Demarco Murray so all is not lost. I expect Jackson to gash the Browns something fierce. :(

I am torn still. Any other Bennett/Manningham opinions?

In 1 league(non PPR) i have Andre Johnson, Mike Wallace, Steve Smith(car), AJ Greene, and Boldin. Been trying 2 move 1 or 2 of them but hasnt worked out so far.

And get Maclin in, as if he wasnt a must start as the Eagles #1 WR, but still. He is a MUST start now.
