The "Who should I start" thread

[dc_txtech]

I've been starting Alfred Morris every week and I have always been an "always start your studs" kind of guy but not sure this week.

Reggie Bush @NYJ
Alfred Morris @PIT

Jets have the 31st ranked run defense and Pit is ranked 5th, plus there is some bad blood between Bush and the Jets which makes me think Reggie might be in for a big week.

PPR? Why don't you have any other RB options? I'd go with Morris, just because he's so much more consistent.

1/2 point ppr

I'm starting AD tonight and I'm keeping Michael Turner on the bench this week vs PHI.

I drafted Greg Jennings, Garcon, and Amendola so I had to make some moves to pick up some WR's. I traded The Lawfirm and Demarco Murray for Stevie Johnson and Wes Welker respectively, which left me with only 4 RB's on my roster.

Regarding the Dolphins vs the Jets, supposedly Philbin was quoted as saying that they need to get the ball to Hartline more. In my bigger league, I've got Bush, Tannehill, and Hartline (Tannehill and Hartline ride the bench, I use them for match-ups and bye-week fodder). Anyone think that Tannehill or Hartline have a chance at doing something vs NYJ's coverage, or is the talk from Philbin an attempt to keep the offensive game plan somewhat unknown?

After seeing what Cromartie did to AJ I would be hesitant to start Hartline against him.

[majestrate]

Well, I was thinking kind of the same thing. Not just limited to AJ. Guess I'll leave Tannehill and Hartline on the bench a little longer.

Close, but I'm leaning Bush.

I could use a Little help as well... Standard yahoo league:

At HB I will start Mathhews and one if the following:
Bradshaw against Dallas (missed practice again yesterday)
Ridley against StL.
Sproles against Denver

At WR I will start C.Johnson, D. Thomas and one of the following:
Maclin against Atlanta
Lloyd against St.L
Steve Smith (Car) against Chicago

I'd go with Maclin probably but have no idea which HB I should start...

Suggestions please!

AJ
OD
Decker

Need two out of the three. AJ has bombed this year, but, blind loyalty sways me, same with OD. BUT, Decker has more TDs than both, and is becoming one of Peyton's fav targets. I feel safe with OD, but, ya just never know when AJs gonna have his breakout game. Schaub is my QB. My gut feeling tells me Kubes will run the ball a lot against the Bills, so just not sure if AJ or OD will get that many points. HELP!! Weeden is my backup QB, but, he's sittin the bench against the bears.

I think you've got to go Decker at this point. And OD is leading the Texans in TD receptions and is getting almost as many yards/game as AJ. So I'd go with those two: Decker and OD.

But I'd be hoping for AJ to have a breakout game, anyway.

Are TE and WR interchangeable in your league? This is tough. I think I would go AJ and Decker though. AJ has played well the last few weeks and I think he'll have a big game.

I need some suggestions of my own if anyone can help.

I need to choose 1 out of these 3.

Eric Decker
Larry Fitzgerald
Malcolm Floyd

I'd go with Decker and AJ. OD might be the safer play but AJ gives you a chance at a huge game. The Bills are REALLY bad.

[SheTexan]

Yea, TE and WR are interchangable in my league. Does anyone know whats wrong with OD? Just read he's on the injury report, but, I think he's been on it most of the year. Just wondering.

TE Owen Daniels was limited in practice due to a hamstring injury, while WR Kevin Walter was limited due to illness.

They're just saying hamstring.
