    Got a couple tough decisions at RB and WR this week in fantasy football, could use some help. Its a 1 PPR league as well.

    At RB ive got (pick 3)
    Turner vs Green Bay
    Bush vs Minn
    Westbrook vs Washington
    Forte vs Detroit

    At WR (pick 2)
    Andre Johnson vs Indianapolis
    Calvin Johnson vs Chicago
    Eddie Royal vs Tampa Bay
    Desean Jackson vs Washington

    Thanks in advance for the help

    Definitely Westbrook and Forte, and Bush I like more than Turner. For WR, the two Johnsons

    I'm guessing this is <12 team league? Great core you've got there in any case.

    I sit Turner, not Bush if Westbrook is healthy, but close call.

    Very close call on WR too, but personally I start Calvin over DeShaun but some here will disagree. Royal is an obv sit.

    I like Bush over Westbrook just in case Westbrook is still a little nicked up. Bush is a better alternative in a PPR league than he would be in a standard league.

    I also like the Johnsons. Desean Jackson's production has gone down a bit with Reggie Brown back and Chicago is like the 5th worst passing defense in the league when their corners are good and Tillman's questionable and Vasher's doubtful this week. Calvin Johnson should go off.

    That brings me to my question...dare I start Jon Kitna against that Bears secondary instead of Drew Brees vs Minnesota? I think I need a huge week and although Brees has murdered 3 of 4 defenses he's faced this year, if there's ever a non-bye week to start Kitna it's probably this one.

    Turner, Bush Forte.

    Calvin and Deshaun

    Bush will get a lot of looks with a thin WR core. Same with Deshaun.

    At RB I would go

    Westbrook (He will play this week)
    Forte
    Turner

    Now turner over Bush is a tough pick but I think A. Rodgers is not going to play and if he doesnt that means turner will get more touches. Duece is back healthy in Orleans and as you prolly saw last week he carried the load for rushes. You have a goos set of backs and I would look to dump Bush for a top WR

    For WR I would go

    Andre Johnson
    Calvin Johnson
