Ok, this is my third must win week in a row (coming against the 1st seed for the third week in a row-different teams each week). This team scores the most points every week, but is Patriots heavy (who are playing the Saints).
Here is my question:
Since Forte and Olsen are playing Minnesota (the #1 fantasy defense), should I put in Donnie Avery (playing Seattle) and Kevin Boss (playing Denver and had two scores last week) instead?
If not, would you replace Forte with any of the following?
Santonio Holmes
Roy Williams (just putting him here as a formality)
Marshawn Lynch (Questionable)
Mario Manningham
Some random guy who probably is not signed by anyone (be specific)

Thanks!

I don't know about starting Avery since Bulger is out 3-6 weeks. I was going to pick up Avery but I heard that and canceled my waiver.

6 pts per rushing or receiving touchdown
4 pts per passing touchdown

-2 per fumble

Are any of these guys available?

Driver
Crabtree
Snelling
Forsett
McCoy
Cartwright
Felix Jones

Sounds like Benson may be coming back this week so I wouldn't bank on Scott.

Looks like Julius Jones may be back also, which kills Forsett's value.

No way on benching Olson, keep him started, Vikings have a good defense but they are one of the worst against the TE. Boss just had a good week. I wouldn't bank on that happening again.

I love these guys this week if you can get your hands on them:
Snelling/Crabtree
if not them, I'd go with Avery over Forte only because when they hit the red zone, Olson will probably be the main target, not the running game and Boller will be looking for Avery all day.

It's always a crapshoot though. Good luck!

I heard he was going to come back to practice but didn't hear he was going to play. Bleeding lungs isn't something you want to rush back from :)

Really? Now I'm definitely screwed this week. I'm gonna have to replace him too; I'm starting him.

If he doesn't play then I'd go Forte/Avery/Olson
If he does play then I'd go Forsett/Avery/Olson

That seattle secondary makes me want to start any #1 receiver :)

Seahawks coach Jim Mora said RB Julius Jones will return to practice Wednesday and will likely start Sunday vs. the Rams. Jones didn't play in the team's Week 11 loss against the Vikings because of a lung contusion suffered against the Cardinals; Justin Forsett started in his place and had 89 total yards and a touchdown. "We will work him in at a condensed pace," Mora said of Jones, noting that Jones hasn't been able to even exercise while resting his lungs.

That just sucks. Now I have no idea who I'm starting. I have to start two and was thinking this:

RB #1: Forsett

RB #2: (gametime decision) between
Bernard Scott, Cedric Benson, Jason Snelling, or Turner

BN: from bad matchups (or just not enough reps)
McCoy
Fargas
Felix Jones

RIP: Ronnie Brown
Now I don't have a clue :evil:

Thanks for all the responses. I really appreciate them! Now I'm guessing I shouldn't start Forsett. Should I start Manningham or Avery or Santonio Holmes in his place?
