Start/Sit Help for Week 3

[riffjaff]

Hey guys, could really use some help this week figuring out lineups because my team has just been decimated by injuries.

I've got Schaub starting at QB with Hasslebeck on the bench this week.

Now I need to pick 3 of the following 6 backs to start.

I currently have Thomas Jones, Pierre Thomas, LT, Reggie Bush, Joseph Addai and I'm pending a waiver pickup dropping Rashard Mendenhall for Cadillac Williams but that won't go through until Saturday night. Who do I go with?

I've Andre Johnson as my #1 WR and Louis Murphy as my #2 because injuries have claimed Antonio Bryant and Anthony Gonzalez right now. They're on my bench because I don't want to drop them in case they come back mid-season and actually pay off. Should I possibly drop one of the above RB's and pick up/trade for a better receiver?

Just wanted to add that my FA WR options include Laurent Robinson (projected to get 13 pts.), Chansi Stucky (12 pts.), Brandon Stokely (13 pts.), or Devone Bess (14 pts.)....any of them seen as viable options to drop Louis Murphy, Antonio Bryant or Anthony Gonzalez? Should I risk someone else picking up Bryant or Gonzalez through waivers if I drop one of those two?

I also have Antonio Gates at TE but I'm contemplating trading for Dallas Clark considering Peyton has been targeting Clark a lot this season and Gates is getting fewer looks from Rivers....what do you think?

Thanks all, hope to do better this week.

Drop Gonzo. I did. Good chance he plays sore when he does come back.
Grab Robinson and Sims-Walker or Garcon if you can.
Bush isnt doing anything this year and Brown is stealing alot of Addai's carries.
I would drop Bush too.
