    Does your league count kick/punt returns? If so you have to have Desean in there.

    If not, I'd put the other 3 in until McNabb is back.

    Yes, I get Return TDs for the person as well as The defensive team. FYI I also have the eagles defense. So if he returns one I will get 6 pts if I don't play him and 12.

    I'd say Schaub first, but the Browns sucks so Flacco could have a good game.

    Easily Bush. Miami will be running vs SD's horrible run D.

    Ok, here's a tough one. Who do I sit?

    I just traded for Brandon Jacobs, so my RBs are now:

    Slaton (v Jax)
    Grant (v STL)
    Fred Jackson (v Saints)
    Jacobs (v Tampa)

    I also have Derrick Ward, but he's obviously sitting.

    So, the matchups favor the last three, but I'd hate to sit Slaton and finally get that big game out of him. I'll be rolling out Calvin Johnson and Steve Smith (NYG) and sitting TJ Housh, so I obviously don't mind sitting a higher draft pick.

    Rodgers. Texans likely re-establish the run. A better question is why doesn't he try to trade one of his QBs?

    Last three for now Slaton will come back but he is off to a horrible start. FYI next week Jackson gets lynch back.

    Thanks. That's how I was leaning. Yeah, I traded for Jacobs because Lynch is coming back and that situation is up in the air. Of course, now I have 6 guys who may be starting (Ward is starting for Tampa and I also have Shady McCoy). I'm hoping Jackson cements at least a timeshare. The guy with Lynch on his bench is getting nervous.

    Ideally (and I hate myself for this), Cadillac worsens his injury and Ward becomes the starter full time, or at least the main back in a two back timeshare.

    Who would you sit?

    Gore vs Minn
    Brown vs SD
    McGahee vs Browns
    S. Smith vs Dallas

    I'm torn over Gore vs Minny run D and McGahee scoring all over Mangina's pathetic team.

    Stats and current production say to sit Slaton against the 6th ranked rush D in jax. BJ on the other hand is up against the 28th ranked D. He hasn't done much either. Again you'd think sitting slaton would be the answer, but my gut still says sit BJ, but it makes no sense.

    Flex W/R, no PPR:

    Roddy White vs Pats
    or
    Reggie Bush vs Bills (Pierre Thomas is banged up)

    Tough one, but I'd go with Rice. I think FJones will get the workload this week for Dallas.

    Absolutely Roddy White. Who are your other receivers that White isn't an automatic starter every week?

    and another one:
    Bowe vs. PHI
    or
    Berrian vs. SF?
