I have to chose a WR and a WR/RB flex option. Players to choose from are cadilac williams, rock cartwrite, pierre garcon, and donnie avery. Not sure on which two should play here.

Great team (besides Cutler,) by the way.

They've been good and have a great match-up with a terrible Redskins offense. At running back, go with Thomas, Benson, and Norwood. For your receivers, start Calvin Johnson (as long as he's playing, which it appears he should be at this point) and Marques Colston. Finally, for your quarterback, if Warner is a no-go, your best bet is probably Garrard against the Texans. Good luck! Go with the Saints for your defense.

It's probably safe to ditch Bernard Scott at this point. In terms of who to start at running back, he's a bit of a risk, but I like Felix Jones. The Giants run defense isn't that great and Jones has played very well the past few games when given the chances. As for your receivers, it's hard to guess between Henderson and Meachem, but go with what you have there (Avant, Driver, and Meachem) and you should do alright. Hey Natalie, congrats on the victory!

Running Short on RB's this week due to Bernard Scott's turf toe and Cedric Benson now playing. Should I drop him or does he still warrant a roster spot? My other RB's are Ricky Williams and Brandon Jacobs, but I really think I need to bench Jacobs because he hasn't done anything worth starting him so far. With Dallas as a matchup this week it isn't worth the risk in my opinion. As far as RB's available to pick up in my league, I have a choice between Felix Jones, Chris Brown, or Sammy Morris. I could drop Scott and pick up any of these RB's for this week. What do you think? I need to start two RB's Sunday and Ricky Williams will obviously be one of them. BTW- Thanks for the advice on picking up Avant, Meachem, and Henderson last week as well as starting Donald Driver! Started Henderson and Driver which was good, but wish I would have started Meachum too! Breaston didn't get crap and I forgot to check if Warner was out- oops! This week I think I will start Avant, Driver, and Meachum. Do you agree? I won in my league last week too and beat the guy in 1st place! YEAH! Thanks!!!! Hey Brandon!
