Thanks to Antonio Gates, I'm up 144.5 to 131. He has the Eagles D left. Will I win?

2nd running back this weekend in a PPR league:

Jones-Drew @ Denver
Ronnie Brown @ NYJ
Betts vs Giants
Chris Brown @ Saints


Jones-Drew was an automatic start the first two weeks, but he hasn't done shtein so far...do i stay with him or try someone else?

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

I might be tempted to go with Ronnie Brown, but Jones-Drew is probably still the best play of that bunch.

After last year, I'm a Ronnie Brown hater.  I would stay with Jones Drew, although it wouldn't be inconceivable to think that Chris Brown will get yards against the saints.

Just had a trade proposed to me last night.

Even though I realize that:
Stephen Jackson cant stay this low for this long.
Jamal Lewis's big game last week was a fluke.

The ability to upgrade at WR (giving me Chad Johnson, Torry Holt and Anquan Boldin as my 3 starters) and QB is a bit tempting.

My current team:
Tony Romo, Jay Cutler
Steven Jackson, Edgerrin James, Marion Barber III, Tatum Bell
Chad Johnson, Anquan Boldin, Vincent Jackson, Jerry Porter, Derrick Mason, Wes Welker
Benjamin Watson
Jason Hanson   
Jacksonville   

Roster Positions: QB, RB, RB, WR, WR, WR/RB, WR/TE, TE, K, DEF

Notable Stat Settings:
Passing Yards (40 yards per point; 3 points at 300 yards; 4 points at 400 yards; 6 points at 500 yards)
Interceptions (-3)
Sacks (-1)
Reception Yards (20 yards per point; 2 points at 100 yards; 3 points at 150 yards; 4 points at 200 yards)
Rushing Yards (20 yards per point; 2 points at 100 yards; 3 points at 150 yards; 4 points at 200 yards)
No PPR

Trade proposed:
Steven Jackson, Vincent Jackson, Cutler for Torry Holt, Jamal Lewis, Jon Kitna


Please just tell me this is a sucker trade so I can hit the "reject trade" button.

I have MJD as well in a PPR league. I also have Portis, LJ, and Chris Brown. I think I'm going to bench MJD this week and go with Portis against the Giants. For some strange reason the Jaguars don't want to run the ball any longer, and going they are going into Denver. I think MJD will be much better as the season goes on, same time last season, the Jags had the same amount of rushing yards they do at this point in the season, and then broke out in week 3.

I think given your other options, you might want to stick with MJD. Denver should take away all the deep stuff, so they might wind up dumping it off to Jones-Drew a lot in that game, if you don't like that, out of what's left, I'd go with Ronnie Brown.

these running backs are tough just for the fact they are all running back by committee. So you would have to go IMO with the guy who is the legit starter in R. Brown. Although, Im not completely sold on him right now because of that O-line, and they have been behind both games throwing their asses off. I do though think Miami keeps it real close this week and possibly win, for these 2 teams battle every year

Betts (6 carries), Brown and Drew (10 carries). Thats not going to get it done, and your crossing your fingers for a TD somewhere, rather than looking for opportunities to touch the football. R Brown only had 11 carries, but they were getting their asses handed to them and the game was out of reach to run the ball

Thanks guys.  Thats all I needed to hear.  Now all I have to do is figure out who to play at WR next to chad:

Boldin @ BAL
Welker vs BUF
Mason vs Ari
Jackson @ GB
Porter vs CLE

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Welker or Porter, probably Welker.

@BAL is not a place for a guy to get untracked.
Mason's been weak so far and is more of a between the 20's possession guy.
The SD passing game is definitely not something to bank on right now.

I can play 2 (potentially 3) next to Chad, so maybe both
