Title: IND Colts Problems
Post by Chumpzilla on Dec 23^rd, 2005, 8:57pm

In several leagues I have all kinds of problems due to the Colts resting players. I could really use some input.

QB: Peyton Manning

Is Peyton part-time worth more than (please rank):

McNair
Brunnell
McCown
Jamie Martin

Full-time???

RB: Edgerrin James

Is Edgerrin part-time worth more than (please rank):

Cedric Houston
Noah Herron
Zach Crockett
Dominic Rhodes

Full time?

Any insight is greatly appreciated!

I would easily play Brunell or McNair, in that order, over Manning this week.

At RB, it's a little more sticky. Houston is tempting in this situation, BUT I would go with either James or Rhodes, whoever you think is going to do better. At least, I would try to come to a conclusion regarding the latter and then juxtapose that guy (either James or Rhodes) and Houston. That's a tough call. I, without having put the commensurately required thought into it, would probably go with Rhodes. But, what my advice here really is is more methodological than opinionated, so to speak,... the "how" rather than the "what".

Good luck! [smiley=shammy.gif]

Hey Chumpzilla, I like McNair this week. I believe he put up over 300 last week and a couple TD's. Won't get the same #'s this week but should rate highest of the guys on your list. I also think at RB the same as Steg thinks. I would go with Rhodes over Edge. I think he comes in before the 1st QT is over! Good luck bud! [smiley=footballsmiley.gif]

For what its worth, envision James and manning playing one series after you start them.

So wishful thinking of getting a half out of them is just that... wishful thinking?
