Who should I start??, Who should I sit? Please give reasoning for your answer...?
I need opinions for my starting RB and WR positions for week 7
I can start 3 WR and I need to choose between the following:
Marvin Harrison- @GB
Dwayne Bowe- TENN
Roy Williams- @STL
Kevin Walter- DET
Larry Fitzgerald on my bench also but he has a bye this week
I can start 2 RB and here are my choices
Brandon Jacobs- SF
Adrian Peterson- @CHI
Chris Johnson- @KC
Steve Slaton- DET
At this point matchup wise I'm thinking about sitting Dwayne Bowe because he plays Tenn Def and they are top 5 against the pass this year. For RB's I'm leaning toward starting Slaton and Johnson because of their favorable matchups, but its hard to sit AP or Brandon Jacobs. I dont like AP's matchup vs Chicago's Def at home and Brandon Jacobs can be a bit of a mystery some weeks because the Giants have so many good ballcarriers.

Id sit Bowe too...Roy and Walter both have favorable matchups against 2 of the worst D's in the league, and although GB is the most favorable matchup Indy will be without Addai so they'll have to throw alot more and Marv is still Peyton's main man.
Id start Slaton definately, he's been killing it and Detriot is horrible.
Chi-Town is a stout D but he's Adrian Peterson so you always have to consider that, San Fran is mediocre and KC is just plain bad. Chris Johnson (ECU all day) has been coming on and should destroy Kansas $**tty
So go with Slaton and Johnson

when I have tough calls I always look at matchups and decide which player will get the most looks based on that matchup.
I would sit williams--he should give you some good starts down the road, but with him being new to the system, romo out and so many other weapons...I also expet them to run more than pass.
1. bowe - kc should need to throw all day to keep up, and looks like LJ may not play...so I expect them to rely on the passing game more.
2. walter - houston looked good last week, dets secondary is very weak--though det may not be able to score and houston may run most of the second half--root for det to put up points!
3. harrison - looked great last week, finally...manning might be back in his grove and with addai out they could throw more...plus GB can score.
for RB, tough call:
1. jacobs is a stud start and they should be runing a lot on the niners...with the lead most of the game...this is your safe call
2. a bit harder...and a total roll of the dice---my first pick is chris johnson because of the weak run D in KC and Ten should control the game with the run. but you also have great starts with slaton (though, DET has been beaten up through the air most week)...and peterson can always go off.

WR - Start Harrison, Williams and Walter.
RB - Start Jacobs, Johnson, and Slaton.
Harrison - has been coming on strong lately, look at last week. GB has a good secondary, but Harrison always finds the open spot.
Williams - STL has a horrible D and Willams should have a field day with that.
Walter - look at Detroits D, anyone against them should be started.
Jacobs - bruising back with SF not good agains the run, should have huge day.
Slaton - Real good back against again Detroit, as I said above, start anyone against Detroit.
Good Luck.

It would be hard for me to Start Roy Williams. With him coming into a brand new offense, I don't know if I would trust him.
Peterson is also a mystery. He is usually an automatic start, but the bears are tough. But remember, it is Peterson. I would still start him.
