  • Obvious Starts:
    OAK: None.
    SD: WR Danario Alexander, Chargers Defense.

    Cardinals at 49ers

    Start Em:
  • Larry Fitzgerald, WR, Cardinals
    Brian Hoyer is a quarterback who can actually get the ball to Larry Fitzgerald.

  • Colin Kaepernick, QB, 49ers
    Colin Kaepernick is at least a low-end QB1 because of his rushing ability.

  • Obvious Starts:
    ARZ: None.
    SF: RB Frank Gore, WR Michael Crabtree, 49ers Defense.

    Sit Em:
  • Chris Wells, RB, Cardinals
    Chris Wells doesn't appear to be 100 percent.

  • Vernon Davis, TE, 49ers
    Vernon Davis may not play coming off a concussion. He hasn't done much anyway.

    Ruskell Wilkens is my No. 6 quarterback this week. Check my fantasy weekly rankings for more.

    STL: RB Steven Jackson, WR Danny Amendola.
    SEA: RB Marshawn Lynch, Seahawks Defense.

    Sit Em:

    I am having trouble with who i should start as my rb's this week. I'm playing in a league where I get 1 point per yard, touch and reception, so a good day for a rb is over 100 points. I have three open slots. I have Shone Greene, Jaquizz Rodgers, Frank Gore, Darren Sproles, DeMarco Murray, David Wilson, and Mikel Leshore. I can also pick up Knowshown Moreno. Which 3 should I play this week? Thank you for the help.

    *ROTISSERIE PLAYOFF REDRAFT FORMAT*(4pts/TD pass):

    Not sold on the "start Aaron Rodgers every week" assumption....especially with his recent weeks' struggles:

    START
    Rodgers @ CHI (UP)
    Big Ben @ DAL (DOWN)

    With Wallace/Brown back in the fold, I see the Steelers passing a ton. DAL pass defense has been shaky lately.

    2nd round of fantasy playoffs in both of my paid leagues. In the first one I have Freeman as QB, Charles and Murray at RB, Wayne and Alexander at WR. Then I have to decide between Olsen and Rudolph at TE and between Montel Owens and Chris Givens at the flex spot. Currently I have Rudolph and Owens starting. In my 2nd league I have to pick 2 RBs and a FLEX player out of Green-Ellis, Montel Owens, Vick Ballard, Pierre Garcon, and Kenny Britt. Thoughts?
