Who to Start week 3
pick 2 RBS
Matt Forte vs Bucs
Larry Johnson vs Falcons
Darren McFadden vs Bills
Brandon Jacobs vs Bengals


pick 2 WR
Braylon Edwards vs Ravens
Reggie Wayne vs Jaguars
Torry Holt vs Seahawks


I figure Wed would be a good day to start the weekly thread for everyone.

I agree on the RBs, but I'd hate to bench one of my studs (Braylon) just to see him have that break-out two TD game.

I'd go

Jacobs, Forte

Wayne, Edwards.


Would you start DeAngelo Williams over Marvin Harrison?

Panthers coach John Fox says that DeAngelo is still the starter even though he barely got any carries in the second half of the last game, while Marvin has yet to do anything this season.

Pick 2:
T. Jones vs. SD
W. McGahee v. Cle
L. Maroney v. Mia
C. Johnson v. Hou

I'm leaning toward Johnson and Jones, just wanted some more opinions.

Re: Who to Start week 3
Trent Edwards vs. Oakland
Palmer vs. NYG

This would have seemed like a ludicrous question before the season but Palmer has only given me a total of 9 points this year while Edwards has played really well and is approaching 50 points.

I don't think you can go wrong with T. Jones and C. Johnson, but I think Willis is more likely to put up a big week than T. Jones. Maybe that is because I am a Willis owner, but Willis has good history against the Brownies. Plus, Willis' back-ups week one didn't really blow any one away.

Either way, go with C. Johnson and your gut between T. Jones and McGahee.

I drafted Maroney, too. I am quickly beginning to think he was my worst pick of the draft.

I still go with Palmer. He has got the talent and the receivers. But, seeing how poorly the Bengals' O-line is playing, I don't know if he will have time to find any receivers.

Re: Who to Start week 3
Is Willis healthy? I haven't heard any updates lately and seem to remember he was iffy for last week's game w/Houston before it got 86ed.

He seems to be close to 100%. He is no longer listed on the injury report. It may be a time share this week, but this should be the last week of that.

Oaklands Pass D is fairly good. I think I would give Palmer another chance this week. If he hurts you again, bench him for the year.

welker easy

It looks like LT's not at 100% and with Sproles in the lineup... I'm not saying I'm just saying... PPR league makes bush a must start though. Turner would be my odd man out if all things were equal though
