Decisions for Week 4

[soccerman034]

Current Waiver deals pending:
-Adding: Jeremy Maclin, Dropping: Clinton Portis
-Adding: Ahmad Bradshaw, Dropping: Jason Snelling
-Adding: Tony Gonzalez, Dropping: Brandon Pettigrew

Current Roster:
QB: Matt Ryan
QB: Matt Hasselback
WR: Roddy White
WR: Calvin Johnson
WR: Austin Collie
WR: Steve Smith (CAR)
RB: Jahvid Best
RB: Tim Hightower
RB: Rashard Mendenhall
TE: Marcedes Lewis
TE: Brandon Pettigrew (being dropped)
Utility: Darren McFadden
Utility: Pierre Thomas
Bench: Ray Rice
Bench: Clinton Portis (being dropped)
Bench: Hakeem Nicks
Bench: Jason Snelling (being dropped)
Bench: Josh Freeman
Bench: Eddie Royal

My biggest concern:
-Can I start Jahvid Best and Calvin Johnson this week with good conscience? They are going up against a stout GB defense, and both had rough games last week.

It really depends with best if Kevin Smith is going to be in action. They are actually being careful with his knee upon return.

again what type of league are you in where maclin and bradshaw are on waivers and you can drop portis? it doesnt matter what decisions you make - each of the four teams is an all star team

It's a 7 team league full of Canadians.

Thank you for finally dropping snelling.

Great pick up with Gonzalez, mindboggling that you can do that actually.

CJ yes
Best NO

TE: Marcedes Lewis
Utility: Pierre Thomas
Utility: Darren McFadden
Kicker: Sebastian Janikowski
Defense: Pittsburgh Steelers
Defense: Tennessee Titans

Don't think Rice is going to play this week and even if he does he has a horrible matchups. Hightower is taking a back seat to Beanie. If you can, pick up hillis, he's got a good matchup this week

I dropped Hightower and Eddie Royal and picked up Hillis and Beanie Wells.

My biggest question currently is: Should i start Hakeem Nicks in place of Calvin Johnson?

I'd personally start Nicks this week though I'm pretty convinced Calvin will find the endzone (and not have it called back) this week.

Should I start Beanie Wells over Hillis?

Well Pierre Thomas really screwed me over today. I looked on Friday to make sure that my roster was set, drank and partied all of yesterday, and now I see (after its too late) that Thomas is out. WTF!? Austin Collie is questionable as well, but should play. Should have started Calvin this week.

Wasn't it you earlier this week that told us we had no idea what we were talking about when it came to Calvin?

Wasn't it just last week that Calvin was still disappointing? One good week says nothing, Hakeem Nicks among other wideouts on my list still have more overall fantasy points than Calvin (I just wish I hadn't been listening to you guys and started him all those weeks).

You mean the guy who knows everything, yet knows nothing and plays in a 7 team league? :lol:

Yep this would be him.
