2008 Fantasy Football Who To Start Thread

[shorebird]

A. Johnson-131 ReYd, ReTD  19.1

S. Smith-96 ReYd  9.6

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Well, I played Johnson.  So, speak for yourself.

[shorebird]

I am.

[phillymic2000]

Ben to Ward gets me the win

[Tomahawk]

I ended up starting Johnson, Wayne, and Smith. They all did better than Moss.

[shorebird]

Moss had a big fat zero, which makes the Eagles loss even more disturbing.

[shorebird]

It also makes T-hawk look like a fantasy genious.

[Munson]

So this is the trade I was just offered

Patrick Crayton
Ladainian Tomlinson
Ike Hilliard
Tony Gonzalez

for

Reggie Wayne
Eddie Royal
Edgerrin James

This is a PPR league. Now the problem with this trade is while I would get LT and Tony G....my WR's would be Calvin Johnson (zesty offense/QB), Torry Holt (zesty offense), and a platoon of Hilliard, Crayton, and Kevin Curtis when he gets back.

It would, however, give me starting RB's of Stephen Jackson and LT, and Earnest Graham on the bench.
My gut instinct says jump all over it.....but even with those two RB's (one who plays in a zesty offense and another who sounds like his toe is going to effect him all year), I don't know if I can win without Reggie Wayne AND Eddie Royal.
farg.

[phattymatty]

um yes, take it.  anyone can win without eddie royal. 

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Would he be a #1 on the Eagles?

[Munson]

Would he be a #1 on the Eagles?

Steven Jackson and Julius Jones.

[shorebird]

I know I didn't specify but was really looking for only one, as my other starter is Portis. To tell you the truth, I was leaning towards McClain with him going against Indy, who has the worst run D in the league. Jones would be my next bet with Jackson going against the taterskins. Skins have a good run D. Only allowed three rushing TD's so far this year.

Jackson though is one of those players you just can't sit. He had a great game in week four. I have to start him. shtein, he was the first runningback I picked.
