Fantasy Football Help

OK  I had Jones going last night so I am off to a great start. My opponent is stacked with Lynch and A.Morris at RB , Wilson at QB, Ertz.

Here is my RB dilemma.

I have Sproles, D. Brown (SD), Ellington, and P.Thomas.

I am starting Sproles and Brown but am second guessing Ellington with Dwyer being out. The only thing that concerns me is his foot injury. I think I am going to wait a week on Thomas and see how the work load pans out.

EDIT: I should add that this is a non-PPR league.

Matty Ice is good at home! They have other weapons!
It worked out pretty well for me. He got 38.64 (projection was 34.00). If TB would've been more competitive or even had a pulse last night, he would've scored more probably.

Now I gotta solve my RB issue for Sunday. I've got Jamaal but he's got an ankle problem but did practice yesterday. I picked up his backup Knile Davis. Right now, Davis and Sproles are my starting tandem.

Would go with Davis and Sproles personally.  Good problem to have.

I would start Sproles and Pierre Thomas.  Ingram is out with injury if I remember correctly.  Thomas carrying most of work load.  And plus Saints are pissed being 0-2 and playing at home.  Expect them to score A LOT!

 
Ok, since Ingram is out, here are my other RB options.  Let me know who you guys think I should start in his place:

Reggie Bush

Darren McFadden

or Eddie Lacy

Bush and Lacy haven't done much the first two weeks.  Both were injured week 1, but have been cleared and are playing.  McFadden, well its McFadden and the Raiders vs the Pats.  Pats run defense hasn't been great, but neither has the Raiders run game.

It will be GB vs Detroit, that's always a tough game.

Personally, I would play Bush over Lacy and McFadden.

Not McFadden for reasons you've stated.  I prefer Bush over Lacy because the Lions DL is probably top 5 in NFL.  Packer's DL isn't as good.  Raji is out too.

Start Lacy who has faced two of the best run defenses so far this season. He gets another tough matchup with Detroit, but he is the best back from your choices.

Bush is really only the starter in name, as Joique Bell is really the primary ball carrier. He has ball security issues, but they seem to prefer Bell. Bush and McFadden are kind of roll-the-dice players. McFadden will get the bulk of the work with MoJo Drew sidelined. I would choose McFadden and Lacy, personally.

 
I was expecting the Saints to score a lot more than 20 points today.  Saints aren't impressing me at all.  

I thought the Seattle Defense would stifle my two Bronco weapons, but somehow that was false.  Luck produced almost 40 points for us today.  He's definitely the top Fantasy QB as the Colts can't run the ball, and often times have to play catch up.  

 
Woot!  Helping my friend to a 5-0 start!  Thank you Andrew Luck!!!

The RB position's the weak link on the team.  Unsure who to start this week.  I'm leaning towards Andre Williams and CJ Spiller.  Which two RBs would you start:

CJ Spiller vs New England (NE Defense isn't that good)

Andre Williams @ Philly (Rashard Jenning's is out)

Justin Forsett @ Tampa Bay 

Chris Johnson vs Denver

Brutal Week 6 loss!!!  I lost 123.20 to 123.32.  Had Patrick Willis playing Monday, only needing 4 pts to solidify a win.  Willis recorded 3 points through two quarters and left with a toe injury after halftime.   :angry:   

Need kicker help.  My regular kicker Parkay (Eagles) is on a bye.  Should I pick up Gould from the Bears (vs Miami) or McManus (vs 49ers) from the Broncos?

I would go with Gould... Manning gets TDs. I personally think you have a better shot at FG points vs extra points with Gould.
