I got 4 RB's
Willie Parker v- Bengals
Rudi Johnson v - Steelers
Stephen Jackson v - 49'ers
Fred Taylor v- Indy

Who do you think I should start? 1 point per 20 yards rushing, 6 points for a TD. I have Jackson and Taylor starting due to the weak run defenses of those teams, but I'm thinking about Johnson...he's been a stud this year.

On another note, the AFC North has become a beast division. The browns are at .500, impressive, but baltimore, pittsburgh and cincinnati will all get 10 wins.

Are you in a Yahoo league? Pitts run defense is pretty good though. Also, you have to consider the relative matchups. Your start is great, I like it. RJ is a stud, just start him when he's most advantageous say, against Tenessee or Houston.... Taylor and Jackson should do well for you, those are great matchups. Good little stable you got there. Have you checked out www.rotoworld.com? Pretty good info there.

I've got Westbrook (vs 49ers), McGahee (vs NYJets), and Chester Taylor for RBs. I've benched Taylor cause he's playing Chicago. The other two should do decent for me.

But, I have Vinataeri and no other kicker so I need to grab one ASAP. Looks like Growstolski is my best bet.

I'm in Yahoo...Kasay (Carolina's kicker) scored 20 points for his owner, unbelievable. RotoWorld looks pretty good, I'm gonna check it out.
Good pickup on Taylor, the way he's been running makes it unbelievable that the RAvens didn't use him last year. But then again, Priest Holmes was backed up in B-more.

Yeah, I was a Kasay owner in a Yahoo league this week. That more than made up for the 0 points Donte Stallworth and Hines Ward got me this week.

As I'm sure everyone saw, Parker had a huge game. There is nothing like having a solid RB on a running team. That's where SJax is taking the Rams as well. He's started out kind of mediocre but he'll come around for sure.

You have a very nice problem inkriminator!

jorgelito, nice week for McGahee and Westbrook, huh?

inkriminator · 09-28-2006, 01:41 PM

haha, it is a good problem to have, i'll probably end up trading one of them along with randy moss :-( to a team for a top tier wideout (Marvin Harrison, Plaxico Burress...can't think of too many more) or for a good QB, Eli Manning would be great. I have Brees and Leftwich who aren't giving me what I need.

jorgelito · 09-29-2006, 08:31 PM

Ooh, that's a toughie - QB's and WR are pretty important too. Goddfather, I just picked up Kasay to back up Vinatieri just in case he doesn;t start. I'm actually gonna have a big problem next week when Indy has a bye. I lose Manning, Harrison, and Vinatieri.

I have Ward also, I was so bummed he got 0 last week (damn you Ben! hehehe).

I feel pretty forunate to have Westbrook and MacGahee cause I missed out on all the other RBs during the draft. I lucked out cause they've been doin real well.

At the moment, I have to do a lot of micro managing and look at match-ups then adding and dropping players accordingly. It's harder to just depend on some key players.

Ink, look at your waiver wire and free agents, there could be some gold in there. Sometimes the other guys in the league can be caught sleeping.

Last week, I had to drop Keyshawn Johnson so I could pick up a freakin' kicker!! Then he pulls in like 26 points or something ridiculous. It sucked cause I had planned to pick him up off waivers later but some other kid beat me to it!!!

Haaha, anything can happen in this game.

Oh yeah, Ink, good luck on your LSATs.

yo thanks jorgelito, it went pretty well, hopefully i'll get back my 180 soon :-) . Man, I put up 135 points in my yahoo league, and got beat by my opponent who put up a monstrous 145....but he had Santana Moss, and if thats what it takes to get my Skins to get a way, I'm all for it!
