Who should I start In Week 2 of Fantasy Football? RB's, WR's and Def?

Question

2 RB's: LJ, Deuce Mc, Ahman Green, Derrick Ward

3 WR's: Holt, Galloway, Bruce, Driver, Furrey

1 Def: Jags or Packers

LJ is my stud but with the way Herm Edwards is working him plus the Bears pretty much shut down LT, I'm really thinking about benching him...any thoughts?

Plus with Def's, both will do good this week, but who more? Pack against a backup QB = INT's but Jags should harrass Atlanta as expected...tough pick

Answer 1

lj and ward

holt driver and galloway

jags

Answer 2

For RB, don't do anything crazy. Play LJ. You don't sit your stud after one bad week.

There is no way of telling what to expect from Derrick Ward, so I can't reccomend starting him when you have other solid options. Sit him for sure this week, and if he has a good game, consider him for week 3.

Between Deuce or Green, I would go with Deuce.
Last year he had over 1000 yards and 10 TD's. There is no way Green will still be able to give you that kind of production. Plus, Deuce plays in a more explosive offense and is more of a goalline threat. LJ and Deuce for sure.

For WR I think it's easy because you have three WR's that stand out as being your "best three"... Holt, Galloway, and Driver. I would probably start those three every week, barring injuries.

For your defense, I agree that both teams have good matchups, and they should be able to force a lot of turnovers. But I would wait until Sunday morning to make the decision.

The reason is that Eli Manning has been practicing, and there is a chance he might be able to play this week. Right now he's listed as a game-time decision. If he's out, the Giants are going to be turning the ball over like crazy. But if he plays, the Giants could actually be pretty good, because Eli played great in week 1. So, my advice is to stay tuned to ESPN, follow the injury reports, and make your decision from there. Good luck!

Answer 3

RB: LJ (start him every week) and I'll go on a limb and say Ward. He has the least shaky O-line behind which to run. McAllister only got 12 touches last week (compared to 17 for Ward and 20 for Green). And I still don't trust Houston's O-line enough to expect continued strong performances from Green.

WR: Holt (start him until he gives you ample reason not to), Galloway (TB has a shot against the Saints' defense) and Driver (only Javon Walker and Steve Smith got more looks than Driver last week).

DEF: Jags. They are going to romp on Atlanta.

Answer 4

RB: Deuce & Green (LJ will do well, but not sure how much playing time he will have)

WR: Holt, Galloway, Furrey

Green Bay for sure on DEF.

Answer 5

Rb:Foster by way of fact he could make a reliable comeback over a D that hasn't determine itself out yet Wr: Roddy White by way of fact dez Bryant is injured Flex: Tim by way of fact the skins will run the ball over the undesirable rams D Def: 49ers by way of fact I assume lions to attain ALOT of things against Dallas
