Pick two RB's - Westbrook vs. Dallas, Portis vs. Giants, Jacobs vs. Redskins, Dayne vs. Denver

Pick three WR's - Chad Johnson vs. SF, Torry Holt vs. GB (at home, and Bulger should be back), Roddy White vs. TB, Deion Branch vs. Carolina, Chris Henry vs. SF, Reggie Brown vs. Dallas

Kicker, Jason Hanson

Pick a Def - Steelers vs. Jacksonville, Seahawks vs. Carolina

Please let me know what you think, and feel free to leave your roster as well!

Thanks!

I could also use some help picking 2 running backs:

Ladanian Tomlinson (obvious #1)
Rudi Johnson (@ SF)
Selvin Young (@ HOU)
Aaron Stecker (vs. ARI)
Fred Jackson (@ CLE)

Thanks everyone!

Dayne probably won't play or if he does it shouldn't be much. I am having to bench him tonight. WR - CJ, TH and RB and I would use the Seahawks D.

My league is in the second round and I have these choices.

QB; Kellen Clemons, Eli Manning, AJ Feeley
RB; Adrian Peterson-MN, Reggie Bush, Ron Dayne, Kolby Smith, DeShaun Foster
WR; Reggie Wayne, Marvin Harrison, Andre Davis, Randel-el, Devery Henderson
TE; Greg Olson, Kellen Winslow
K; Kasey, Rakers
D; NE and KC

Young may split time with Henry. The same with Jackson with Lynch.

I'd probably go with Johnson...

Cydar,

Thanks for the advise last week by the way. I started Branch over Holt, and while it wasn't the difference, it was the right call.

What makes you go with Jacobs over Portis? Just curious...

And are you not sold on Roddy White this week?

Thanks!

I'd go with Johnson as well. SF shut down Peterson last week, but MN doesn't have the passing attack that the Bengals have. They won't be able to commit so much to the run...

We only get two WR I have Henderson going over Davis, would you switch it? He just hasn't been getting the touches lately but the KR last week was nice.

Blando, you need to man-up and pick your own lineup. What is this two weeks in a row. What are your knees buckling?

Jacobs and Portis is a tossup as the numbers for both rushing defenses are about the same. The game is in the Meadowlands so I gave Jacobs the nod although Portis had a decent game there last year. The Redskins may lean on him more as Todd Collins will probably start.

Tampa Bay has the 4th best passing defense in the NFL. I'm guessing that the team may be in a mess with Petrino leaving. And the game is in Tampa...

Henderson plays Arizona in New Orleans. I'd probably go with Henderson over Davis...

Westbrook all the way, he's been banged up most of the year but has still carried my fantasy team.

Well, I wish I would have used Dayne at least I would have had some for sure points.

Yeah, Dayne isn't looking that bad now. Oh well, I'm sure AP and Smith will get the job done for you.

Although, the guy I'm playing has AP, so I'll be rooting against him. He also has Brandon Marshall, so I'm already playing from behind. Marshall has 11 for 107 right now...
