Yeah, that was not my finest hour by a long shot. Bad pick. Horrible pick. I regretted it pretty soon thereafter, but means nothing since I posted it. Luckily, some of the other picks worked out better!

I like both D's this week, but I'd go Pittsburgh because of the "brand" and consistency.

RB – Thomas Jones
RB/WR – Devery Henderson (Buckhalter could be okay, as Moreno is questionable, but I think Henderson has a big game in a shootout against Buffalo.)

Seattle can't stop the run, but has played decent pass D. I'm just not buying Knox yet as a week-to-week starter. I want to see him prove it again. As for Jones, I don't like matchup against Tennessee, but he will get the most touches out of everyone in your list.

I agree. I'd hang onto Colston and Ward.

Hi JRod,
You helped me out last week a lot with the Vincent Jackson recommendation. He got 20 points! Thanks!

I have another questions this week.
I have two spots to fill, the RB and an RB/WR. Here are the options.

Thomas Jones vs. Ten
Correl Buckhalter vs. Oak

Johnny Knox vs. Sea
Devery Henderson vs. Buf

I’m leaning towards putting both RB’s in.
Lemme know what you think.
Thanks!
Mary

@Kyle,
Colston is worth more than all those players combined.
He’s one of the few top wr where you won’t have to worry about the weather especially during fantasy playoffs

I have a proposed trade: Marques Colston and Derrick Ward for Chad 85 and Thomas Jones. Should I accept the trade?

@Bobby,

Again, crazy at sounds, I start Delhomme…knowing full well the risk that he could throw 6 picks.

Actually, I think it depends on your matchup. I personally don’t see Favre or Leftwich scoring many fantasy points this week going against SF and NYG, respectively. But if you are “favored” to beat your opponent, and have solid matchups elsewhere, consider playing one of them (I’d go Leftwich, then Favre…still not totally buying Favre’s fantasy potential yet).

But, if it’s close or you think you need 20+ points from your QB to win, throw Delhomme in there. I would not be surprised at all to see he and Steve Smith carve up Dallas’ secondary and for that game to get into a fantasy-friendly shootout. You know the risk with Delhomme, but Dallas’ deficiencies against the pass make it a high-reward situation as well.

I’d like to give you a definite answer…but in this case I think it depends on the rest of your roster and your opponent for the week. Managing risk/reward, especially at QB, is sometimes an overlooked aspect of good management.
