All signs point to him being a go, although it's not a great matchup. If you like him much more than Wright and Kerley, then I'd roll with him barring a setback. That being said, I'm not a fan of starting guys coming off injury who haven't gotten full practices in, so I'd actually go with Wright. Also, not sure if you have room on the roster or a guy you can drop, but I like Emmanuel Sanders quite a bit this week. Great matchup, and no Antonio Brown. Not sure he's a whole heck of a lot better than Wright or Kerley, but might be something to consider.
Well its $5 a transaction and you can only drop position for position. Even if Amendola only gets me a few this week I like his upside for the rest of the season the most.
I'm dropping Robert Meachem for him. (I only still have Meachem cause of the trans charge and whoever I added woulda been buried on my depth chart anyway.)
You start 3 WRs. My other WRs are Green, T. Smith, Harvin, Brown and Little. I thought about Sanders but I was looking for someone with more than 1 week of upside.
With McFadden hurt and Richardson on bye, I need to go into the bench...
Mark Ingram (vs Atlanta)
Daryl Richardson (@San Francisco)
Joique Bell (@ Minnesota)
Leaning towards Ingram. Waiver wire has Taiwan Jones (but even against the Ravens, no reason to trust a Oakland back not named McFadden), Peyton Hillis, and DeAngelo Williams.
Sounds like Redman will in fact be splitting carries. If that's the case, I'd lean Boldin despite Redman's favorable matchup.

I know Rivers has been terrible this year, but I'd still lean with him. The Bucs have given up a ton of points to QBs/WRs.

I hear ya, definitely not worth picking Sanders up for five bucks for one week.

I'd be tempted to go Jones (or perhaps Reece), but it's obviously a gamble. Not a PPR league I assume? If it is, I'd go Bell (or Reece if he's available). If it's not, Richardson has a bad matchup, and at least with Ingram you've got the chance for a TD (although I'm afraid Ivory will significantly eat into his workload again). These are real close to me, but I guess I'd lean Ingram.

Currently have Jackson and Brown in there. Stewart pisses me off week after week and gets only half of his projected point total. Brown has been getting all the goal line touches for the Giants and a lot of touchdowns. Jackson had a rough week last week and Spiller is clearly better than him, only a matter of time before Jackson starts losing touches, right? Tough decision.

I'd keep Jackson and Brown in...Stewart is way to inconsistent for me
Leaning towards Hartline seeing as Lloyd is questionable, but all 3 have very favorable matchups. Oh, and count me among those who started Rashad Jennings...
Freeman's been great lately. I'd go with him. Who knows how the Raiders will look with their RB combo of Jones/Reece. Palmer's the riskier start IMO, and isn't a better one to me even without their problems at RB.

I agree with your commentary. My concern with Brown is if he doesn't vulture a TD, he essentially gets you nothing. That's risky. With FJax and Stewart at least you're guaranteed 10-15 touches. I'd go with them.

I'm not a Hartline fan at all. Take away his one huge game and he's been very mediocre. Both guys have good matchups (and have essentially scored the identical amount this year), but give me the guy that has Brady throwing him the ball. I'd go Lloyd (unless he's ruled out obviously, which I seriously doubt).

I was gonna say Dwyer, but in a PPR league you gotta go Hartline.

Do you mean Bolden? As in NE Patriots RB Bolden? He's suspended for 4 games. If you mean that guy, take Redman and hope that the other Steelers RBs stay hurt.
If you mean WR Boldin, I'd probably still lean towards the RB. Risky either way. Boldin put up one huge game but isn't the #1 target for Flacco. Ravens passing game focuses on the hot hand, and it's impossible to guess which WR will be that guy on any given week. Torrey Smith has had a few games where everything was thrown his way and Boldin got 1-2 targets.
Redman might see limited carries if the other RBs come back.
Locker/Tannehill/Wilson for QB2
Moore or Taiwan Jones for flex
I'm gonna assume we're talking Lance Moore, cause there's no question I'd start Denarius over Jones. I definitely see one of Jones/Reece being pretty productive while DMC is out, but it's just too tough to gauge which one it'll be right now. I'd go with Moore. Locker has the best matchup as Miami gives up a lot of points to QBs, but I just don't like starting a guy the first week off an injury (assuming you have other options). Tannehill's just too ordinary for my taste. You'll either get an ok game, or a bad one. No upside. Wilson's been much better at home this year (all of his bad games have been on the road), so I'd go with him.

damn man jennings was a bust this week! You need to make up the points and honestly I'd go with Hartline there with a VERY favorable matchup
