Need a little advice. Have to pick one out of these three for my flex spot.

Kevin Walter against Oakland
Mark Clayton against Seattle
Braylon Edwards against Buffalo

Walter has had a TD every week so far this year, plus Andre Johnson may be limited. Clayton seems to be Sam Bradford's favorite target, and with Sanchez playing well, Edwards has big play ability. So who would you go with?

Right now for me it's kind of a toss up between Walter and Edwards. Thoughts?

With that sick nasty corner covering Andre this weekend, I expect Walter and the other Houston WRs to have big weeks. So I'd go Walter.

In honor of week 4, I must rant ... In my big 16-team league, check out the problems on my roster this weekend:

*Adrian Peterson (bye)
*Ray Rice (questionable with a bum knee)
*Cadillac Williams (bye)
*Toby Gerhardt (bye)
*Steve Breaston (out - injury)
*Santonio Holmes (out - suspended)
*Early Doucet (out - injury)
*Mario Manningham (questionable with a concussion)
*Jason Witten (bye, and even if Dallas played, he has a strained MCL)
*Matt Schaub (not out, but Andre Johnson is gimpy, which hurts his stock)

There is NO ONE available via free agency, so I literally might have to start Issac Redman and Danny Woodhead at RB haha .... shit!

Pick up Mike Hart from Indianapolis lol. It is a looooong shot, but if they get up big on Jacksonville he could get the carries.

Easy choice. Kevin Walter. With Asomaugh covering Johnson, Walter will have a big day.

haha, not a bad idea ... I picked up Danny Woodhead, who I may sadly have to start. Maybe I will catch lightning in a bottle with this midget!

Donald Brown didnt practice. If he is out, Hart is the backup in Indy.

If Andre Johnson doesn't play, should I stick with Walter or start either Clayton or Edwards?

Should have benched Cutler once the win was secured!

Im kidding of course, as I assume your tie-breaker at the end is total points, so you never bench players, but I actually had to bench Rex Grossman back in 2006 scared he might get negative points (I was up 2.3). Of course he went off for about 40 points that game!

And to think at the start of the season we were joking around about how week 4 should be an easy win for me because you were supposed to have a bunch of people on bye weeks haha. Thanks Andre Johnson and Randy Moss... zero points each. Sad thing is even if I started my 2 bench receivers they would have gotten me a combined 1 point.

Yeah thats pathetic production from them haha. Im lucky Lloyd had another big week, because Boldin was so-so and Murphy got injured in warm-ups!

Next week is gonna be rough with my Miami backs on byes, and McCoy out (as of now). I Im gonna have to go to the wire for a RB, which blows since McCoy has been a top back so far.

Wow didn't know McCoy was out I thought he was supposed to be back... Blah I might have to go pick up someone in the other OC league.
