Wheatley at Pitt

or

Driver vs. Chi

1st round of playoffs in my yahoo league.

I'd go with Wheatley. Driver has been a missing man of late and Wheatley has been producing when he gets the ball.

Thanks Philly. Also I'm hearing that Ramsey may be going under the knife. Would Tim Hasselbeck be worth a roster spot? I have Garcia, Blake & Holcombe & we start 2 QBs in this league.

Considering the QBs you have... absolutely. Hasselbeck has played pretty well so far, and could have good games against the Giants this week and the Bears in two weeks.

I'd probably start Blake and Hasselbeck this week. (Of course I'm not a fan of either Garcia or Holcomb.)

I have Wheatley on my team as well and I like the fact that OAK is a running team now. Pick up T. Hass. He will be throwing the ball alot and seems to hit his WR in the hands.

I concur with them.

Specifically, I would drop Holcomb (assuming you mean the QB,... moreover, if you mean the RB) for Tim Hass. Although I like Holcomb and I LOVE Tim Rattay, I think Garcia just might have a good game this week against Arizona. Let's put it this way... if he blows chunks, his career is over. Though I would like that, having Rattay, I don't think it is going to happen. My second choice for a drop would be Blake then. But, this is really a tough week to wrap your mind around. Blake could end up lighting up San Fran; Garcia could blow. Then again, the exact opposite could happen. I just think Holcomb is your "safest" drop if that makes sense.

Ok I've picked up T Hass & he's starting over Blake & Holcombe. Now I have a 3rd issue. Last one I promise. Dom Davis is hurting & facing a good Jags run defense. Should I start :

Davis & Wheatley

Davis & Driver

Driver & Wheatley

1 pt per 20 yards rush
1 pt per 30 yards rec
1 pt per reception

Well Davis didn't play & I didn't have time to replace him, BUT with Garcia & T Hass I won easily. As soon as I saw McCown took over for Blake I thanked my lucky stars that I benched his sorry ass. Wheatley also came through for me. Thanks everyone for your help in getting me past round one of the yahoo playoffs. Believe me this was no easy task. My opponent had Priest, A Green & S Davis at RB. Yikes! However he also had Jay [smiley=monkey.gif] Feidler. [smiley=laugh.gif]
