Symptoms: Leaguemate induced gut problems

Diagnosis: Leaguemate has serious case of inflated hopes

Prescription: WR2 on a mediocre passing team for a future starting RB. Your gut is right.

 

My Advice:

Do not trade Benson for Galloway.

[Dr. Love]

hi doc,

 

scoring: td's 10 points and .1 per yard over 40 yards.

            rushing and recieving: .3 per yard and bonus 5 for over 100 yards

            fumbles: -5 points per fumble

i can start 2 rb's:  w.mcgahee

                          r. johnson

                          l.jordan

                          w.dunn

i can start 3 wr's: r.moss

                          r.wayne

                          i.bruce

                          d.driver

                          d.mason

                          c.chamber

i'm leaning towards mcaghee and johnson jordan is new and dunn has t.j.

my wr's like moss,bruce and driver becauce of matchups but should i start

wayne over bruce and driver.

who do you think i should start this week and should i try to trade 2 of my middle

tier wr's for a #1 wr?

thanks for the advice

Symptoms:Lineup indecision, lack of puctuation

Diagnosis: Common lineupitis

Prescription:Your logic seems sound. However, I think you'd be beter off playing Wayne even against Baltimore than Driver against Detroit. I think Walker will get most of Favre's passes, while Wayne is a #1 caliber receiver who frequently sees single coverage because of Harrison.

 

My Picks:

McGahee and Johnson over Jordan

Wayne over Driver

[Dr. Love]

Need a Flex - must get 50 yds rush or rec to get any pts.

 

Starters (locks)

Favre

S. Alexander

S. Jackson

T. Holt

Roy Williams

 

Bench (must choose 1)

L. Fitzgerald

B. Lloyd

Mewelde Moore

few other stiffs.

 

I currently have Fitz as the Flex, but I'm thinking about Lloyd simply due to the fact that SF will be behind early and Lloyd may get some trash yds and possibly a TD.  Fitz and the AZ offense kinda scares me (fear of Warner) and I think this will be a low scoring game.  Moore is still the backup (for now!)

 

Thanks Love

Symptoms: Weakness when trying to flex

Diagnosis: Gruesome bench

Prescription: One shot of Lloyd. Given your scoring system, I think he's a better shot to give you yardage scoring. Either guy could score a TD, that's tough to predict.

 

My Pick

Lloyd over Fitz

[RavenFeeder]

Hi Doc,

 

There was such a run on RBs in our draft that when it came back to me I went with 2 Tier 1 receivers. I ended up with poor options as #2 RB, but I figure my WRs will bail me out.

 

I recently lost E Shelton, but F Gore just became available. Should I grab him or pick up W Green, N Davenport or A Thomas? Pickin's are thin.

 

Thanks for your assessment.

[DerangedGridironGeek]

6pt tds & 1pt/10yds

 

Need One WR:

Jimmy Smith vs Sea

Roy Williams Vs GB

 

Thx

[Cowboy Killah]

okay. I need help picking my second WR and my third RB. I am in a standard performance league. My starting line up right now is

 

QB: Carson Palmer, WR: Terrell Owens, WR: Roy Williams, RB: Julius Jones, RB: Kevin Jones, RB/WR: Carnell Williams, TE: Todd Heap, K: Jason Elam, and D: Dallas.

 

Riding Pine I have

QB: Jake Plummer

RB: JJ Arrington, Lamont Jordan

WR: Steve Smith, Michael Clayton, and Drew Bennett

TE: Randy McMichael

 

I'm thinking Carnell should have a field day on the Vike's D. But then again (as much as I hate to say it) The Giants didn't have a great run d last year either, so maybe JJ? Then I'm also thinking that Jordan could have a big day against the pats without Bruschi. And would you trust Harringto to get the ball to Williams or go with Clayton or Smith? Help?

P.S.

I know it looks like I'm stacked, but it's an 8 team league and the other teams look just as good and some look unstoppable. I gotta get off to a great start.

[JWP 45]

I appreciate any help DR. Love..whod to start as my 2nd WR

 

Branch

B Lloyd

D Mason

 

AT QB

 

Warner

McNair

[Ice717]

Hey Doc,

 

Need a little help deciding which two receivers to play. :doah:

 

Lelie@Miami

Boldin@NYG

Coles@KC

Jones@Sea

 

The rest of my team plus the points are in my sig.

I was leaning toward Boldin and Lelie. The reason not for Coles is because of the new DBs that came to KC and the Jets implementing a new offense could take a game or two. Thanks for the advice.

[Chavez]

Depilatory or Brazilian wax?

[cliaz]

Hey Dr. Love, my question is posted here:

 

My scoring system is a standard performance with bonuses for long receptions (40+) and long rushes (20+) plus bonuses for long passing Tds (25 to 50= +1, 51 to 75 = +1, 76+ 1) So a 75+ yard Td would be 6 points +3 points for the distance.

 

Start 1 QB, 2 Rbs, 2 Wrs, 1 Flex (WR, TE, RB, FB), 1 K, 1 D.

 

I want to run a wish bone but with my 3rd RB being Barlow I don't think I can do this right now. Do you see a WR in the list (follow the link) that you feel can bring it?

 

THanks

need 3 wr's in my 10 team performance league. .1/yard, 1/reception, 6/td.

Javon Walker vs Det

Ashley Lelie vs Mia

TJ Housh. vs Cle

Brandon Stokely vs Bal

Keary Colbert vs NO

Brandon Lloyd vs StL

 

I have been leaning towards Walker, Lelie and Housh., but would like to hear what the doctor has to say.

Symptoms: Overall weakness in RB extremities

Diagnosis: Complications from WR extraction from the draft

Prescription: Depending on your scoring system, you may be okay. Holt and Moss should be two of the top 5 receivers and two of the few guys at the WR position who score consistently. If you can get your backs to muster some points every week, you should do well. As for the FA situation, I like W. Green much better than the other option. Droughns is not a great running back, and Green actually has talent, and his attitude has improved greatly. While I also like Davenport, I think A. Green is much less likely to be replaced than Droughns. Pick up W. Green and keep an eye on the Green Bay backfield situation for an opportunity to pounce.

 

My Advice:

Pick up William Green

[Dr. Love]

I've got to go to work, so I'll attempt to answer some of these over the next day or so. Thanks!

[unusualsuspects]

I have to drop 1 player to have a legal roster...

RB's / LT Martin Cadillac WParker BJacobs Blaylock

WR's / Harrison C Rogers K Curtis M Jenkins R Williams

TE's / Witten Troupe

QB's / Leftwich Orton

 

Start - 1 QB 2RB 2WR 1TE 1DEF 1K Flex( RB,WR, orQB)

 

Considering dropping M Jenkins, also considering dropping B

Jacobs to pick up Pittman -  Do you think he'll vulture td's from Cadillac?

 

If you disagree with dropping Jenkins, who to drop and why?

Thanks for the help Doc!!!

[Señor Tequila]

Hey Doc,

 

I need help with a third WR, I'm already starting C.Rogers & D.Mason

 

WDIS:

 

K.Johnson - How strong is the Charger's Secondary? Better question, has the Cowboy's passing game worth anything this year with Bledsoe?

 

A.Toomer - Can E.Manning throw a football???

 

S.Parker - Finally another WR other then Gonzo & Eddie to put up big numbers?

 

10pts after the first 100yds, 1pt every 10yds there after. TD 6-12pts depends on distance.

 

I forgot to add that I could start B.Edwards.......whats your opinion about the Bengals Secondary? Browns passing game?

 

Thanks

J Lewis

D Mccallister

[ROCKNE]

Hey Doc,

Two wdis questions....

 

Delhomme vs NO

Leftwich vs Settle

Hasselbeck @ Jax

 

and...

 

Willie Parker vs Tenn

Caddy @ Minn

JJ Arington @NYG

 

Thanks

[TheBigE]

Hey Doc,

 

I've got the Ophelia Flu and worried Hasselbeck will flounder in Florida this week. With Harrington's new incentives to be number one and a maturing O and playing at home indoors, who should I start? I'm leaning toward Harrington, regardless of the stud potential of Hasselbeck. btw, new to our league this year, combine rush and pass bonus yrds for QB's.

 

Thanks

 

The Big E

[EAW]

I'm hesitant to start ATL this week against PHI.

 

I can pick up the following DEF - do you think any of these would be a better choice?

I am leaning towards NYG home against the Cards.

 

Cin DEF @ CLE

Stl DEF @ SF

NYG DEF vs. ARI

 

Here is our league DEF scoring:

Sack (1)

Interception (2)

Fumble Recovery (2)

Touchdown (6)

Safety (2)

Block Kick (2)

Points Allowed 0 points (10)

Points Allowed 1-6 points (7)

Points Allowed 7-13 points (4)

Points Allowed 14-20 points (1)

Points Allowed 21-27 points (-3)

Points Allowed 28-34 points (-7)

Points Allowed 35+ points (-10)

 

Any thoughts Doc? Thanks!

[lkollias]

I have 2 decisions for 2 different leagues I am in (Standard Performance).

 

1). Domanick Davis vs. BUF , Mike Anderson vs. MIA or Cadillac Williams vs. MIN

I need to pick 1.

 

You should always start your studs so by that theory I should start D. Davis, but he is a little nicked up and he is playing a tough Buffalo Def.

 

Mike Anderson seems to be the safest play.

 

Not sure what to expect from C. Williams, but predictions look good and they are going against the Minnesota Def.

 

What do you think?

 

2). JJ Arrington vs. NYG or Fred Taylor vs Seattle

 

I was leaning towards JJ Arrington, but he has not had a great pre-season. Fred is probable and is safer pick, but this one is confusing me.

 

Thanks for your Help!!

[Qdaddyo]

Doc,

 

This pertains to League 2 in my sig.

 

Here's my lineup this week:

 

QB M Bulger

RB K Jones

RB D Davis

WR D Branch

WR Lee Evans

FLX Ronnie Brown

TE LJ Smith

K J Brown

D CAR

 

I'm not sure if I should keep Ronnie Brown as my flex and Lee Evans as my second WR. Please review my other options, and let me know if you have any other ideas.

[Droobie42]

Performance scoring

Bulger

Dillon

Lewis

Roy Williams

L.Coles

3rd WR???

Mcmichael

stover

Car D

 

I need to pick between Santana Moss vs CHI or Keary Colbert vs NO?!?

 

Hopefully Dillon gives me some cushion tonight where it won't matter as much but I am leaning moss due to the #1, but can someone get him the ball?

[notamomo]

Need to choose two from:

 

Michael Clayton at MIN

Deion Branch vs. OAK

TJ Housh vs CLE

Lav. Coles at KC

B. Lloyd vs STL

 

Standard scoring. Thanks!

[whomper]

Hi Dr.

 

I may be overthinking this but something just dawned on me. My question is wdis at qb?

 

Trent Green vs NYJ or Harrington vs G.B

 

Scoring is 3 points per passing td and 1 yardage point starting at 160 yards with an additional point every 20 yards.

 

rest of my lineup is Edge, Portis, Horn, D. Bennett, Witten, Elam, Skins D.

 

Im high on Trent this year but from what ive seen Green Bays D is pretty bad and the Jets D is pretty formidable. Ive never followed the always start your studs theory as law.(see my sig) My opponent also is starting Roy Williams. Thanks in advance Dr.

[Marauders11]

I'll play. I have a WR dillema on my hands- in my 10 team local- we start 3 WR's each week (1 pt. per reception, 1 point for every 10 yds., 6 for TD's). The catch is that we do not carry any bench players- if he's on your roster, then he's in your line-up. I would like to make a decision that isn't going to be a one week thing- I want the best posible 3rd WR for the foreseeable future......

 

I drafted Lee Evans as my #3 behind Holt & Boldin, but now I am having second thoughts.

 

Players on the WW that I am considering are:

 

Stokley (can pretty much win a game for you when he goes off)

TJ Housmanz- I have Carson Palmer at QB so the hook up would be in effect.

Rod Smith- Steady Eddie

Chambers, Muhammed, Braylon Edwards, Colbert, Santana Moss are also out there.

 

Stokley is the one guy that I am seriously thinking about.

 

What to do?
