Yes, I would rather have Thomas than Crayton. Not that he's necessarily better, but because Crayton is so far down the pecking order for targets in Dallas.

Good advice Jerod. With Crayton would you suggest that it would be a good idea to pick up Devin Thomas WR and let go Crayton?

I just listed out your roster and came up with the same thing you did. I would like to get Steve Smith in there, but I can't recommend him over Wayne, White, or Mason, and even though LT's YPC is down (sub-4.0), he is scoring TDs every week, which Steve Smith does not do.

I like your chances to win this week. Roll with what you've got!

My Bench (K. Smith, Ganther, F. Jackson, MSW, Smith NYG, Britt).

Thanks for your all your help.

You have to play Crayton over Sims-Walker if MSW doesn't play. He's currently listed as doubtful to check tomorrow morning. Otherwise, I think your choices are solid.

I would rather have either the Packers or Bengals D than the Steelers at this point. Until Polamalu comes back, Pittsburgh is an ordinary D. Packers would be my top choice.

Getting Palmer might not be a bad choice. Manning could end up sitting or playing half games at some point.

And yes, Forsett is a good guy to get. Why keep two kickers and TEs? Drop Brown and McMichael and improve other areas of your team.

I would start Mike Sims-Walker over Meachem, if he plays (currently questionable). Toerhwise, I agree with all of your picks.

Rodgers should start for you every week, regardless of weather. Alex Smith, however, is proving to be a pretty capable guy in case Rodgers gets hurt. I'd drop a kicker. No reason to carry two. Flip a coin between Hartley and Gostowski. I'd probably hang onto Hartley because his home games are in a dome.

Flex: play Tomlinson. He's really been playing well lately, even though the Chargers are facing Dallas.

WR1: Wayne, never sit him.
WR2: Mason, gets plenty of targets and gets to face Detroit's terrible secondary this week
WR3: MSW, the ceiling is so high with the Jags at home and Miami's secondary in town.

Defense: I love the Jets this week going up against a rookie QB in Josh Freeman.

Best of luck this week!

Hi Jerod, thanks for your help, a 9 & 4 rookie season wasn't bad.:
I came close to taking first but lost the tie breaker (overall point total to the Brees team). Wayne , MSW & Olsen disappeared. Now we have our first playoff round (week 14+week 15) format.
Roster:
QB Rodjers Note: should I pick up a backup QB, that weather in GB. Young & Smith is available. if yes who to drop?
RB1 Johnson
RB2 Charles
RB3/flex Fred Jackson, Forsett, K Smith or LT (FJ has a good matchup) — Wire : Harrison, Cartwright
WR1, 2 3 Wayne (tough matchup), Smith NYG, Mason, White, MSW, Britt
TE Celek or Shiancoe
K Hartley or no field goal allowed Gostkowski
DEF CIN or pick up team off of wire GB, TEN ,Jets, WAS, CHI
Let the games begin
Regards
JM

I like Crabtree this week, but I would not start him over Steve Smith. Smith gets lots of targets and is clearly a favorite of Manning. Crabtree hasn't proven himself enough yet as a TD threat to vault over a top-15 WR like Smith.
