keggerz Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 IDP INTERACTIVE Week 2 "IDP INTERACTIVE" is a new weekly content piece that will allow people in the forum to ask questions regarding their fantasy teams and receive a very in depth answer. For this to work and work well questions will need to include some specific information so that all angles can be looked at and covered. The more info the better! What needs to be included with your questions(Trade questions, WDIS, waiver acquisitions etc): 1. Your question.(can be about who to start, trade advice, waiver advice, roster composition, how to assess value of offensive players in a deal etc) 2. Link to your league will be very helpful. 3. Roster(s) (including opponents for match-up reasons) 4. Starting requirements 5. Scoring This is where questions for week 2 are to be submitted. The catch is that you will have to check the paid content area on Saturdays to see which question(s) were selected to be answered that week. I (most likely Darin too) will make every effort to answer the questions that are posted in this thread, they just wont be as in depth as the "IDP INTERACTIVE" answers will be. Here is to hoping that everyone finds this new content an added value to our current IDP content. If you have any recommendations that may help to make this an even better feature by all means your input is greatly appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring Back Pat!!! Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 Thanks Keg, for the work that went into your answer week one. I did end up IR-ing Crowell and picked up Pat Thomas. I like the potential upside of adding a MLB to a weak LB corps. So Ithought I'd see what you could do for me in week 2... Different 16 team IDP, must start 2-3 LBs, but I'll be playing 3 all year.

I think you leave Jones on the bench this week...Beason and Bradley are must starts and I think Crowder has a good matchup versus zona.....Jones versus Tenn isnt horrible since they run the ball so much but I would rather wait and see how they continue to use Chris Johnson with Collins now at the helm...could be less tackle opps in that game then one would expect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Footballjoe Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 I am wrestling with who to start at Safety. I can start 3. I get 2 pts a tackle and 1 for an assist and 1.5 for Pass Defended. Plus 2 pts int, ff, fum recovery, etc. Bethea vs Vikings Sanders vs Vikings Hart vs Broncos Page vs Raiders Polamalu vs Browns Rhodes vs Pats I like Sanders for sure. Rhodes may have a good matchup but was been very disappointing last week as well as last year. I like Bethea as well but do not like the idea of using Sanders and Bethea against the Vikings although they could be busy with tackling Peterson. TIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TIA Wow...I wonder what your expectations were for Rhodes last year. In a number of scoring systems Rhodes finished in the top 10 for Safeties. Polamulu was very disappointing last year and was disappointing in week 1 with low tackle totals. In looking at who you have I don't think there is any question who to start: Sanders - When healthy Sanders was a top 7 safety last year and had a mediocre week 1 with 5 solos and 4 assists. He is a very active safety who looks for the ball. Hart - Hart finished last year ranked better than Sanders last year. He is fairly unknown but was very consistentin 2007. The Chargers named him team captian this week now that Merriman is out for the year. In week 1 he had 7 solos and 3 assists. Rhodes - Rhodes was disappointing in week 1 as you said (4 tackles) but I believe he is a good start this week with Cassell at QB and the Pats likely running the ball more often this week.

In 2006 Rhodes had 220 points but fell to 159 points last year. Ranked 26th in my league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
