Default Fantasy help needed

Quarterfinal round ... we're the 1 seed but the 8 seed has scored the second-most total fantasy points this season and just had a couple of bad beats. So, obviously, we need ALL the points we can get.

Between these three players, please pick ONE to play. Assume standard scoring applies ...

- Drew Bledsoe
- Chris Brown
- Kurt Warner

This is for a flex/OP spot ... we'll be starting Vick, L. Jordan, T. Barber, S. Smith, J. Galloway, some dumb TE, Kasey, Falcons Defense in the other spots.

Thanks in advance.

I would go with bledsole. He was my backup QB to peyton manning this year and if i started him the first 4 games i would be in the playoffs instead of giving armchair advice.

I think Warner is a clear play out of the options provided.

warner definitely

bledsoe is in a tough spot - KC has been shutting down the run all year, and dallas has been struggling with the run lately - bledsoe will be forced to pass on a lot of downs and KC knows that - bad day waiting to happen

chris brown is an attractive option playing houston, but with warner's production over the last few weeks, hosting a washington team that has fallen off the map in the last few months i think he's the better play

I've got some FF questions myself:

QB:
Warner vs. Was
Johnson vs. Stl

Final WR Spot:

Driver vs. Det
K Robinson vs. STL
Branch @ Buf

OP: I say Bledsoe. KC has the highest passing yards allowed per game in the NFL. I see a shootout, and at the worst, he'll get some easy points in garbage time.

lacticacid: Johnson, based on the matchup. Stl is like KC in that it allows and scores a lot of points. Every QB looks like a star when he plays StL. For WR, I'd also start Robinson, based on the same logic. Robinson is definitely higher risk than Branch, but I think higher EV as well.

Flip a coin.

Johnson is obviously hot and doesnt turn the ball over much - indoors vs. another indoor team = woo woo woo

Warner for obvious reasons, they throw the ball every down and Fitz/Boldin is a ridiculous 1-2 combo

K Robinson vs. STL

Robinson just on matchup - Driver may never see the ball if Brett's throwing INT's all game again, and Branch on the road not as good as Robinson in the dome, hopefully Johnson can find him on that 80 yard TD pattern again gl [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
