Quick Question

Does Revis really scare anyone not having praticed much except for the past couple of weeks?

I have Boldin WR Ravens and am hesitant to start him over someone of the likes of a Percy Harvin. Thoughts?

I'd start him

he might not have his legs yet. I’d roll the dice.

I have Flacco and McNabb in our BTB league

what a choice. I would start Flacco most weeks, but this one has me worried. McNabb isn’t a great play but most rankings have Flacco even lower.

Reports say Revis has been staying in shape and he doesn’t need a lot of practice with the team to do what he does well. He’s probably going to be covering Boldin most of the game. I would sit Boldin if you have another halfway decent option.

Flacco is gonna have a huge year, IMO.

I heard them talking about him on the radio and how he and the OC really get each other.

how much time a WR does DEZ See inthe first game???

by Bmadd3233 on Sep 9, 2010 12:39 PM CDT reply actions

I think Dez will get some looks

But would be hesitant to start him if you have other options that are similar or better. I wouldn’t think Dez will really start to look good for a couple of weeks.

Yeah, I'm gonna wait the first week to see how much they use Dez.

I can flex him in as RB/WR but I’m gonna throw Spiller in there for now to see what he does since they’ve named him the starter.

Newbie Question

I’m playing a league for the first time this year. I was poking around for some advice on who to start and found that opinion varied a lot more than I thought it would. Does anyone have a site they recommend (or recommend against using) for that kind of thing?
