    Standard scoring - Mendenhall or Givens? And why?

    I would personally go Givens. Bradford used him as the deep ball threat in the preseason and word out of St. Louis is that they are going to throw downfield more. He is risky though as he'll probably rely on one deep ball per game to get his yards up. Safe pick I guess would be Mendenhall but bigger upside for this week I would say Givens.

    I would go with Givens, Arizona OL could be shaky, (they lost their 1st round pick due to an injury) and I dont know how healthy Mendenhall is.

    I know it's been a rollercoaster waiting on him, but he hasn't missed a game in forever. Harry Douglas may be one of the best WR handcuffs out there but he won't be a lottery ticket because of Roddy White.

    Yeah I would take Ruben Randle as a WR handcuff (with injury risks ahead of him) over Douglas any day.

    I flipped 3 times between leaving White in and playing Sanders. I went with Sanders. Can't afford a 0 and White has been totally non-involved so far.

    Damn Bradshaw hasn't gotten any carries so far and MJD isn't playing well

    I thought I had today won, but I had zero production from Spiller, MJD, Roddy White, and Kyle Rudolph...

    I'd probably cut Ben for the upside of Pryor, and you can decide whether or not to start him later on in the week. Just get him on your roster.

    What a depressing week. Just about all the guys I passed on, and some I had been taking in my mocks pretty regularly, all had amazing games. And my guys, who I thought were solid, stunk it up. I know it's one week but damn it still sucks. And I was pretty much DOA anyways cause my opponent had Manning.

    Feeling good about drafting Cook. He fumbled on the way to another TD :( .

    Yeah, Gabbert is terrible, bringing down Shorts. We've seen this before with terrible QBs affecting WRs. Nothing new. I'll be benching Cecil until they make a QB change.

    That's what I'm thinking but man it's the raiders lol.. Plus I'm sure Big Ben can turn it around.

    But for some reason in my fantasy I can't cut spiller...

    Yup, Shorts is gonna stay on my bench until Henne is starting. But damn, Gabbert can't even lead the offense to at least 3 points.
