I'd prob start Kev because Willis goes up against the Texans. Titans rush D hasn't looked good and Kev should be able to get 100 total yds and a possible TD. Tough to sit Willis tho.
How can K-Smith get a TD if he is not in the game any time they are inside the 20? As planned? He's going to have to break a long one, which is not his forte.

Not convinced Leshoure will be as big a part of the gameplan as he is being made out to be. He missed the first two weeks and much of the preseason with a hammy injury and he is still a guy coming off a major injury from last year. I don't see him being much more than a goalline guy for now and I don't think he subtracts from Smith's value much.

While I agree K-Smith will not be effected long term by LeShoure (he sucks). I do think this week the coaches will put him in any time they are inside the 20 and its a carry. The coaches said he will get thrown into the fire, and according to credible reports that means around 15 touches, the majority of which will come when they are in the red zone. I don't see K-Smith scoring on the ground this week because of it, however after LeShoure face plants on the touches he does get, his role will get smaller going forward. No idea why DET coaching staff is high on him, but I guess he was a high draft pick last year so they want to try him out - though he sucks.
Andrew Hawkins, Brandon Gibson, Brian Hartline, Greg Little, Mohamed Massaquoi, Julian Edelman?
or
Jonathan Dwyer, Ryan Williams (who I recently dropped)...
Just one of all those players. I split up the potential WR and RB pick ups.
My main two backs are MJD and Greene. Jennings is taken so I can't handcuff MJD. I don't even want Greene, but his back up in Bilal Powell is still available.
i like hartline out of that list. i just think he'll emerge as the main receiver on that team. tannehill was looking for him a lot. if it's a PPR league, i'd consider hawkins. i also like austin collie if he can stay healthy. if he has a big day sunday, you might want to add him.
i wouldn't worry about handcuffs with your RB's. you need firepower, not insurance. i don't know if you can make another trade, but i'd try to get a better RB2. powell isn't bad...rex likes him and greene has been pretty unimpressive so far. if you're going to run 3.1 ypc, any team will grow impatient with that. just keep an eye out for a RB. are leshoure and pierre thomas scooped up?

Should I play Donald Brown, Peyton Hillis or Mike Goodson in my 2nd RB slot?
brown. an actual winnable game for indy means luck won't have to throw it 35+ times.

britt has the highest ceiling there but i'd be worried about titans' o-line and locker's general accuracy. don't really like morgan and i don't really like gresham much tbh shit, go with britt

very. as far as i'm concerned cutler is a high end QB2 right now. until RGIII shows struggles, keep using him. his rushing allows him to go from an average fantasy day to a very good one.

Thanks in advance
I'd roll with Donald Brown home to JAC. Would stick with Britt, hopefully this is his week, they are going to play him a lot this week they said. Gresham and Morgan are hopeless so you really have no choice. Maclin is out this weekend. Garcon not sure his status, but I would doubt he plays to, but technically a game time decision. I would play Pitta, Pettigrew usually doesn't grab TDs on back to back weeks, and Pitta overall should get more looks than him. RG3 over Cutler not a bad decision at all. RG3 becoming like Cam, hate to compare the two, but even on bad days IRL, for fantasy RG3 should still get points. And we've seen his upside the first 2 weeks. I would start Lewis of those two, but is Myers of OAK available?
I'd flex Amendola in the bottom unless its traditional (no PPR) then Ingram I think he has a good shot at a TD.
Best part about the trade? I flipped Cedric Benson/V-Jax/Pettigrew to a desperate Jason Witten owner for Ridley/Floyd. Now I flipped Ridley/Floyd for Julio/Jacquizz.
Basically, I got Julio Jones and Jacquizz Rodgers for Pettigrew/Benson/V-Jax.
julio's better than v jax obviously but you gave up a ton of RB/TE depth. if any of your starters go down, you could be in trouble. even if ringer eventually takes the starting job, have you seen tennessee's run blocking? it's totally out of sync. they can't create any holes and locker is running for his life. i'm not sure they can justify benching CJ0K given his contract either. that's a lot of money to pay a bench warmer. rodgers has been less than impressive. basically, your team is better but you just gotta hope trent and s jax stay healthy.

I have Leshoure on my bench as well as Hillis. He's the guy I dropped Ryan Williams for. Oh, I also have Matt Forte. I forgot to mention him because I didn't look at my bench.
Pierre is gone.
My WRs are fine. I can work with Dez, Wayne, Harvin, and Britt. Although Dez Bryant really gets on my nerves.
I think I'm going to pick up Powell just in case Greene gets demoted (I have no idea how close this is to happening) and continue to watch the waivers. I'm last in the waiver order anyway, so picking up Powell is just a filler/insurance with upside for now.
QBs: Cam Newton / Sam Bradford RBs: MJD / Matt Forte / Shonn Greene / Mikel Leshoure / Bilal Powell / Peyton Hillis WRs: Dez Bryant / Reggie Wayne / Percy Harvin / Kenny Britt TEs: Martellus Bennett / Jermaine Gresham D/ST: Ravens K: Matt Bryant
Hopefully Britt returns to form. By then, I'll figure out what's happening between Greene, Leshoure, Powell, and Hillis.. Drop one and pick up a WR.
Thoughts on that plan?

sounds good. you're a little deeper at RB than i first thought. as long as you can survive forte being out for a bit, you should compete.

shit, go with britt
