Big problem with week 8 lineup
 

alright, it's week 8, i've got a few sure starters on the bench and a bunch of RB/WR slots with lots of second tier options and bad matchups :/. not looking good. QB, TE, WR #1/#2, K, DEF are set, but i need 1 more WR, 2 RBs, and a flex (WR/RB) for this week and i'm having trouble figuring it out. there are points on receptions (0.5) and return yards (1 for 20). all names link to yahoo profiles (stats etc).

[/code]the two somewhat obvious RB coices are facing 2 of the elite defenses in the league :/.

right now i'm leaning towards jones-drew (RB), washington (RB), keshawn (WR), and mcalister (W/R) with a terrible matchup.

any thoughts?

Re: Big problem with week 8 lineup
 

oh yeah, going up against LT, westbrook, and gates, so it might not matter.

Re: Big problem with week 8 lineup
 

I'd start Cotchery over Johnson, but you're on track with the RBs.

Re: Big problem with week 8 lineup
 

I'd start:
Washington -- looks good so far, and they play CLE
McAllister -- didn't BAL get run over just before their bye?
Cotchery -- decent matchup, decent QB

Re: Big problem with week 8 lineup
 

k, i'll change keshawn to cotchery i guess (oh yeah, gary baxter just went down). it'll be an ugly week regardless ;).
