    This is for the 2012 Fantasy Football Season.

    I think the other thread is getting a bit cluttered and we need to define some parameters.

    If you want your questions answered please adhere to the following rules as a courtesy to others.

    1.) Fantasy Football questions ONLY. Do not ask for advice on fantasy basketball or anything else. This is for NFL fantasy football pertaining to the 2012 NFL season.

    2.) Ongoing Season questions ONLY. If you want your team rated, please see the "Rate my team" thread. You should restrict your questions to "Who should I start" and "Who should I add/drop" and "Should I accept this trade".

    3.) Keep it simple. Do not post your whole lineup and ask for somebody to set it for you.

    4.) If you want advice on who to add/drop, please provide a list of options from who is available from your FA pool. It is impossible to give proper advice if we don't know what options you have.


    A good example of what a lineup question should be is something like this

    This way, somebody can help you out.

    For those giving advice - Please try to back up your answers with at least 1 sentence explaining why you think the questioner should start player X over player Y, etc.

    A good example would be...

    If we can adhere to these rules, more people will get their questions answered, and I will do my best to answer as many questions as possible.

    Lets have fun.

    Good thinking.

    Here's the first:

    Pete the Cheat was helping me out but I'm still stuck on which way to go.

    Hard decision, I'd rule out Greene because the Jets offense seems terrible and plus with the Wildcat variable, he might lose goalline opps to Tebow. Plus the Buffalo Defense seems like it could be good this year.

    I'm thinking BJGE could end up with a rushing TD, and maybe a respectable day.

    Brown might not be able to run against the Bears D, but he could break a big one in the screen game.

    At this point, I'd go BJGE.

    Bears D vs. Indy
    Lions D vs. Rams

    I'm favoring Bears against a QB starting in his first career game. Last year the Colts/Rams were 1/2 in most fantasy points allowed to defenses, but of course the QB play for both should be better.

    I favor Brown, with Green-Ellis 2nd.

    Including if it's a PPR or standard league might be helpful as well. But if you forget to mention that that's your own problem really. Suckers.

    Jennings for sure, because MJD is slotted to be only the 3rd down back.

    I would go McGahee over Redman because Pittsburgh doesn't run well.

    One more thing..

    Manningham might not play because of bereavement

    So who should I start at WR3, non ppr.
    20 team league so real thin at WR

    Jean vs Dolphins 3/4 WR
    Hankerson vs Saints 3 WR
    Roberts vs Seahawks 2 WR

    Or should I roll with Manningham and wait to find out for sure.

    Leaning Andre Roberts

    Romo at NYG or Ryan vs KC? 6pt TDs.

    I'm tempted to take Romo because of the 6pt TDs and Matty ICE will be in KC. But Tamba Hali is out, so go ICE!

    Ziggy can I hear what you think about my conundrum?

    I currently have Greene, but I'm not happy about that now after reading a little in this thread.

    Is Jean the clear #3? I know Hankerson is supposed to be the clear cut #2 and the jump ball goal line type guy. He hasn't lived up to expectations yet, but it's the Skins we're talking about. I don't know about Roberts, so I'll abstain from that, but I'd go with Hankerson bc I think RG3 will have to throw a lot to hang with the Saints, which gives Garcon, Hankerson, Davis, and Moss a lot more opportunities.

    start Rivers, because they are playing Oakland, and for week 1 Gates is healthy, and got nice WRs too.
