Bill D. asked in SportsFantasy Sports · 1 decade ago

Who should I start for my fantasy football team?

I have just a little league between my roommates and I have been going back and forth on what I should do for my team.

First thing to know is that there are only 8 teams so good players are loaded up in every roster.

My team:

QBs : Matt Schaub, Phillip Rivers

RBs : Adrian Peterson, Michael Turner, C.J. Spiller, Beanie Wells (not by choice, didnt select fast enough)

WRs : Randy Moss, Roddy White, Malcom Floyd, Terrell Owens, Jeremy Maclin, Steve Breaston

TEs : Vernon Davis, Kellen Winslow

K: Mason Crosby

DEF: Baltimore

I am having a hard time trying to decide on my starting QB, my flex W/R position, and Beanie Wells/C.J. Spiller.

I know Vincent Jackson is gone but I also know that the Chargers have one of the easiest schedules in the league with other excellent options...hence my selection of Floyd for he will be the #1 receiver most likely behind Gates.

However, I cant help but love the Schaub, Johnson connection. Also Schaub is looking to another great option at RB this year to help out.

Comments?

now for Wells and Spiller.

I didnt want Wells at all because I know how well Hightower has been playing this preseason and i was going to select another player...but oh well.

Spiller I was selecting because he is a great talent that should be starting for the terrible team of Buffalo but i think that Taylor is going to take the job for the entire season if he stays healthy.

My big question here is whether I should drop one of these two and pick up Jerome Harrison...who isnt necessarily as talented as them but has the starting position at a slightly revamped Browns team.

Suggestions?

    Start Schaub. He has all his guys back and healthy this year.

    Start Owens over Floyd week 1. New England lacks quality corners right now....and it would be nice to see how the Chargers gameplan goes before you depend on those guys. They may revert to the days when they run a lot and throw everything to Gates.....Rivers has never thrown 80 passes to a wideout before.

    Pick up Harrison and play him week 1 while you watch how the Wells and Spiller situations work out. Harrison destroyed weak defenses at the end of last season, and he's against Tampa week 1. I might drop Breaston to pull this off.....I know he looked good with Warner, but really, what are the chances that Derek Andersen has two 1,000 yard recievers?? I say slim to none....and you already have 5 very solid wideouts. Breaston would never crack your starting roster.....Spiller or Wells could still pay off.
