The Hellion Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Anyone have insight into whether he'll play this week? I REALLY need a win and as many points as I can get to take over my division and hold onto the scoring title, which pays a nice bonus. I can pick up Jason Avant or Kenny Britt for the week but it will cost me $10. Money well spent if DJ sits and JA starts and scores a bit.

Same deal with me, I picked up Avant (Britt not available for me). The NFL is being super careful on concussions, and the Eagles are being even more so, the most conservative team in NFL. I would not be surprised at all if he is out this week. Avant will see his many more looks if Jackson is out...in a pass happy team right now.

Slugs3511 Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Picked up Maclin in week 11 off ww....Can you believe it? I have DeSean but going into the playoffs, I chose to back him up just with the number of injuries the Eagles have incurred this season...most often, it seems once a team gets one or two hurt, the whole team get infected with the "injury bug" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

i_am_the_swammi Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 Per Sal Palantonio on 97.5 ESPN radio in Philly on yesterday's Mike Miscinelli show, he was told by Jackson that he fells fine, but is "extremely doubtful" for this Sunday per the team's doctors. Plan on other options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexgaddis Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 Does this make Maclin a must start? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isleseeya Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 Does this make Maclin a must start? i would say he gains upside but i think Avant gains just as much upside now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeductiveNun Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 Fortunately in the one league I have Jackson I have already locked up my division and a first round bye, so if he sits a couple weeks to get healthy, I'm all for it. I also managed to pick up Avant off the ww last night just in case, although I do still have options with Driver and Steve Smith (NYG), and if I'm in a real bind Steve Smith (Car) and Wallace from the Steelers. Hope he's gonna be OK though. And I'm thinking long term, not just for my fantasy team's sake. He's fun to watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Hellion Posted December 2, 2009 Author Share Posted December 2, 2009 I went ahead and put in for Avant yesterday afternoon and got him. I will probably put him in my lineup this week as my only other option is G. Jennings and he screws me every time I play/sit him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
