Neither player is going to see any significant change in stock. I like Bell's situation better but Hillis has been really good.

I like Miller with Gradkowski as the starter. Witten has been used a lot in blocking due to the O-Line being awful in Dallas but he is still decent.

I would also go with Miller, Picked him up a couple weeks back and I must say he hasn't disappointed me yet...

Call it home team bias but Rodgers. He's a better QB. Now, Cutler has the Martz system thing going for him but he's had a few big yardage weeks against some weak Ds.

Hard to say but personally I'd go Rodgers.

Rodgers concussion wasn't as serious as Cutler, he didn't have to miss a game or leave a game.

All hometown bias aside its a fact that Rodgers is a better fantasy play hands down than Cutler is.

Start Rodgers, don't think twice.


In a much less appealing decisions

Who should I start?

Eli vs the Lions

or Orton vs the Jets?

Eli had a good game against a porous Houston secondary last week, but can he repeat against the new look Lions defense?

Can Orton keep it going against another tough Jets defense? Will Revis play?

Does it matter anymore, is Orton an every week starter?

Who would you guys start....B Jacobs v Lions or Shonn Greene v Den? Both are pretty poor run d's.

Orton is for real and gets a start every week unless you have Manning or Rivers

Trade Question? Below is my lineup in a 12 team 18 spot PPR leauge 1QB, 2 RB, 3WR lineup.

Being offered Eddie Royal, Thoamas Jones and Chester Taylor for DeAngelo Williams. Williams hasn't done **** so far this year and I don't see this changing anytime soon. Royal gives me an upgrade at WR and Thomas Jones would move into my starting RB next to Stephen Jackson. Any insite would be much appeciated.

QB Kyle Orton,Brett Favre

RB Laurence Maroney, Steven Jackson, DeAngelo Williams,Darren Sproles, Justin Forsett, Javon Ringer

WR DeSean Jackson, Mike Thomas, Dexter McCluster, Devery Henderson, Kevin Walter, Deion Branch

TE Aaron Hernandez, Owen Daniels

K Josh Scobee

Def Minnesota

Injured Reserve
Fred Taylor
Sidney Rice

Aaron Hernandez or Zach Miller?

Torain over the law firm no question,

This is based on what I heard friday, but give me moore over megatron. Apparently megatron had major issues doing anything at all with his right arm as of friday and during walk throughs was only using his left arm to catch balls.

Also based on news from thurs/friday, but patriots insiders have somewhat leaked the notion that Aaron Hernandez will be a huge part of the game plan this week. So... for this week only, I take hernandez over miller.

Also for a flex play, Marshawn Lynch (@ Chicago) Santana Moss (Home VS Indy).

Otherwise I got

Rodgers
Brees
Foster
Torain
Marshall
Welker
Gates

I typically go for the sure thing, and, as such, I've been leaning towards moss. I've just got a sneaking suspicion Seattle will do whatever they can to get Lynch a TD. My team avgs about 132pts per week (league avg 118), I'm at 5-0, and I'm squaring off against the other real legit squad in this 10 teamer.

Moss VS Lynch, what say you!?

Also, for those that catch this, I propose that we use this thread to alert each other of any relevant fantasy injuries or happenings as soon as one of us catches them (e.g. there are some rumblings that Charlie Whitehurst has begun to receive some first team reps in SEA, if anyone catches him warming up or being inserted into the game post it here. Similarly, if Hillis goes down and Mike Bell starts taking over, post it!)

This could be yet another nice little service that this thread can provide.

(*And I do appreciate that people for the most part already do this! Thanks to all for contributions to this thread!)

EDIT - MetroDrugUnit, I'd hold off on that trade until at least the middle of next week. The trade deadline is Tuesday, and I wouldn't be too surprised if one of the backs in Carolina gets moved. Also, I want to see how they use the bye to fix their offense. Also it'd be good to monitor T. Jones' carries this week. Last week it looked like Charles shifted back into being the man for KC, and, if that is the case, it becomes a real bad deal for you.

I pulled the trigger on a trade earlier today. Just want to get your guys thoughts. I was offered Arian Foster, Chris Cooley for Miles Austin and Brent Celek.

Arian Foster is the number 1 RB with our league scoring. I also have Roddy White, Megatron, and Mendenhall to start with Foster. It's a 10 team league.

Ok good, that's what I thought. That's why I accepted on the spot and got opinions afterward. Haha
