it depends on who you need. obviously rice is better than every one of those guys, but if you don't have a deep team you should probably do this trade. 90% of the time this is an amazing deal, unless your team is insane.

I would try to trade RG3 if I was you. Look at what happened to Cam Newton in the last 8 games of the season last year. Teams made adjustments, and he didn't even come close to throwing for 300 in any game, not even 250.

I'm not saying RG3 is Cam Newton. Honestly, I think RG3 is going to be better than Cam in the long run in the NFL, but for one season, he'll eventually hit a wall. He's always going to put up something because of his legs, but he's less of a runner than Cam or Vick.

Up until last week Stafford had something like 5 or 6 straight games with over 350 yards passing (could be more, can't remember/don't feel like looking). The yards and TDs are going to be there by the end of the season. Only thing you have to worry about is Stafford getting hurt, but with these pussy rules, he's less likely to every year.

Roll with Stafford the rest of the way.

My team is pretty sick (10-team league):
QB: Vick
RB: Foster
RB: Rice
FLEX: Morris/Tate/Washington/LeShore/Moore
WR: Julio Jones
WR: Antonio Brown
TE: Jimmy Graham

(The reason I have Foster and Rice is bc I stole Arian last season when he was injured).

So I'm really torn on the trade (Rice for Forte, McFadden, and Decker). On one hand, I'm pretty happy with my lineup. On the other hand, I know I'm getting the better end of the deal on paper, and also improving my depth.

If I took the deal, I also have another deal I could make to acquire Stafford for Forte. So, this trade could yield me Stafford, McFadden, and Decker for Ray Rice.

I'm also considering trading Foster instead of Rice because I have Tate and could then potentially have two RB1s if Foster goes down (or, if the Texans rest Foster late in the season).

It's just tough for me to give up my stranglehold on the two best RBs in fantasy.

Somebody help talk me through this.

Benching Charles would be a big mistake imo. He only sat because he banged his knee and there was no reason to push the issue when they were getting killed in the 2nd half. I think he rebounds beautifully this week.

Im thinking about letting charles hit the bench this week and starting Morris. Thoughts?

I'd still have to start charles. Morris, Stewart, and D'angelo all had good efforts against the Saints. He has that bruised knee though, so I'm keeping an eye on him in my leagues.

I own morris in two leagues, had to play him last week in both because of lack of options...I'm scared if I start him again, Royster or Helu will be the featured back...starting Ryan Torrain burnt before, so I'm a little skiddish.

I need 3 rbs, non-ppr...Arian is starting, pick 2 from these

Adrian Peterson v. San Fran
Andre Brown @ Carolina
Alfred Morris v. Cincy
Ryan Matthews v. Atlanta
Ben Tate @ Denver

I'd go with Green. He's perfectly capable of putting up good numbers every week as long as the Jets don't get in a big hole early like they did last week. Wouldn't be thrilled about him as an RB2 but I think he's underrated overall.

Can I set Larry Fitzgerald this week? He's playing philly, who's pass D is as stout as they get.

My other options (we start 4 WR/TE flex's):
martellus bennett
antonio brown
Brandon lloyd
danny amendola.

I'm not trying to overreact, and sit him all year. I'm just saying kevin kolb is starting, philly is filthy, and all these guys have better matchups (and are off to a better start).

Are Forte and McFadden going to outscore Rice and (flex)? That's the only question you have to ask yourself. Only concern i have is injury. Decker is not much of a factor imo. He's not starting at this time, but might supplant Brown down the road.

When Foster is healthy, and he is, he's better than Rice. I wouldn't over-think it. Trade Rice and keep Foster.

I'd be starting Brown this week and seeing if LaFell keeps getting hot with Cam. If LaFell stays hot for a 3rd week I might consider starting him over CJ2K in a PPR league when Bradshaw returns and drops Brown's value back down.

Celek. As long as Vick is playing start Celek

100% trading RG3... His schedule is rather brutal at the end and he's already whining about getting hit.

Amendola or Flacco for flex in ppr league?
