Some questions as usual
Just took over 1st place in the smaller $$$ league. Gotta keep rolling this week.

Team is absolutely stacked in this league now and it's to the point where I'm going to have issues like this every single week. Basically, if you guys can, pick 2 running backs, 2 wide receivers, and 1 flex (WR/RB) out of this list:

WRs:
Anquan Boldin vs 49ers
Braylon Edwards vs Broncos
Reggie Wayne @ Steelers
Steve Smith @ Raiders

RBs:
Marshawn Lynch @ Patriots
Jamal Lewis vs Broncos
Steven Jackson @ Jets
Brandon Jacobs @ Eagles

Give it some thought. Team I play is pretty good and I want to lock up 1st seed and 1st round bye.

Nice lineup man.
Your team is good enough that you'll win most games but it'll be almost impossible to pick which star is going to outscore which other star a lot of weeks lol

I'd probably go:
RB: jacobs/lewis
WR: Boldin/Smith
Flex: Lynch

GL!

My only concern with Jackson is his recent injury issues. I don't think the Rams will hesitate to throw in pittman or minor to rest him.
I know Lynch didn't have a great game last week but it sounds like he actually had some type of illness.

Bench Wayne....start S Jax and J Lew at RB with the 3 WR (1 flex)

Wayne hasnt done a thing in a month and the other 3 have nice matchups.......Pats and Eagles are snuff on the run and plus Jacobs and Lynch share some of the load anyways.

PEACE

No way Id start Jackson over any of the other 3 backs WC. Hes still banged up and barely plated at all last week. And on the road. Lewis faces worst D in NFL and Jacobs to me is a must start against anyone.

I like smith / boldin wouldn't be surprised if edwards had a decent day. Wasn't there some "bad blood" with edwards/DA

Agree with everything Dave says except Id start Braylon against that Denver D at home over Marshawn. Pats bottle him up...
