QB
<font color="red">T. Brady v. OAK
K. Collins at NE </font>

RB
W. McGahee v HOU
J. Jones at SD


WR
C. Johnson at CLE
E. Kennison v NYJ


RB/WR (pick one)
<font color="red">C. Chambers v DEN
B. Stokley at BAL
T. Bell at MIA
M. Robinson v TB
D. Blaylock at KC</font>

Leaning toward Chambers with Stokley's injury plus playing against Baltimore. I am going back on forth on my quarterbacks though.

[/ QUOTE ]
Collins at QB. I guess Chambers at your flex spot, but I wouldn't be happy about it.

IMO Davis &gt; Jamal. Davis is also more durable (and younger if a dynasty league). The same goes for Javon &gt; Driver.

I'm with the Sports Guy re: D. Davis. Until I read this article I thought I was the only one. Can somebody explain to me the infatuation with him?

never understood the Davis thing -- just seems like he can be tackled. There's nothing special about him. Yet I've seen him as high as No. 11 on some boards. Ridiculous. He's like a more durable Kevin Faulk.


[/ QUOTE ]

Of course I could be wrong about that. Still, there's no way in hell I'd rank him ahead of a hungry, healthy J. Lewis.

Also, Walker's coming off his contract year, so I'm not sure how much better he'll be than Driver.

Regarding Davis, 1200 yards and 13 TD's is really quite good. Given his age and role in that offense it's safe to project him to repeat and even improve on these numbers. Also his role in the passing game in Houston gives him an edge on backs with similar rushing numbers. Last year was nearly 1800 total yards. Not to mention 68 receptions to boot, if you happen to be in a league that awards points for receptions.

Regarding Walker:
1. Contract year = overrated. It's so weak predicting bustouts for players going into a contract year or let downs for players coming off contract years. For every case you can give me for that arguement, I can give you 5 against it.
2. I think that argument is irrelavent regarding Walker -- wasn't he threatening to hold out because he's still playing under his rookie contract and wants it renegotiated?

Start 1 RB, 2 WRs, and 1 Flex

QBs: Warner @ NYG
<font color="red">E. Manning v. Cardinals</font>

RBs: S. Alexander @ Jax
<font color="red">M. Anderson @ MIA
J. Arrington @ NYG</font>

WRs: T. Holt @ SF
A. Lelie @ MIA

<font color="red">L. Fitzgerald @ NYG</font>

TE: M. Pollard v. GB
<font color="red"> Kleinsasser v. TB</font>

K: J. Scobee (Jax)

DEF: Pitt v. Tenn

Unsure about my RBs and WRs, although I'm about 90% sure I'll use a RB in the flex spot. And no, I'm not some huge Cards fan, I was extremely drunk during the draft and didn't realize what I was doing.

Standard scoring, need help deciding RBs.

Priest (starting)

Then I have Lamont Jordan, M. Anderson, C. Williams, and Willie Parker.

Jordan was the higher pick, but Anderson may have the better matchup.

Any thoughts?

M. Anderson - flex.

Looks good otherwise.

You only need one other RB? I'd probably ride Anderson against the Fins. Although with the holes at LB for the Pats, Jordan isn't a terrible play. I'm sure Bellicheck will probably play Troy Brown there though, and be just fine. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

[/ QUOTE ] I would make this deal so fast I would hurt my finger clicking accept. But I do get points D Davis's catches and rec yards as long as you get that this is a steal of a trade.
