    He didn't look good at all against the Ravens, but then again...a lot of RB's don't look good against them. But, I just think the combination of Hillman taking carries away, him being dinged, and on a short week, it doesn't look good. My other option is Rashad Jennings.

    Thoughts? Opinions?

    Thanks in advance.

    that's a tough one. If Giants fall behind early, you may not get much from Jennings.
    I have a similar dilemma. CJ Anderson with his issues or substitute TJ Yeldon against our run D. Will our run D bounce back or not?

    My second dilemma, who to play at flex: James Jones (vs Seattle D) or Amari Cooper (vs Balt D). Don't like either matchup. Cooper could get more targets than Jones, but Green Bay Seattle might be more of a shootout.

    I'm benching him. The short week doesn't help.

    I think I'm going to pickup DeAngelo Williams and start him instead of CJ.

    I stayed away from him in 5 leagues. This was exactly the scenario I was afraid of. Injuries cant be helped, its football after all but time share bs....that grinds my gears :lol:

    Anderson (better player, equally crappy matchups) and Cooper are the plays. Targets are the best stat to go by for a receiver because its indicative of a QB's confidence in a player. Plus I dont know that Baltimore has a pass rush minus suggs. Lastly Oakland should be playing from at least 1 score down most of the way.

    Well, DeAngelo can't score much lower points than CJ last night. luckily I benched CJ right before gametime.

    It sucks getting no production from my 2nd round pick. I do have Forsett and Miller so it isn't the worst situation. They've played some tough defenses so there's still the chance he'll rebound.

    could be worse, you could be me - took CJ Anderson in the 1st round. but I did get Forsett in the 2nd round. I think if Denver goes back to a P Manning "coached" offense then it will open up more holes for CJ Anderson.

    what's killing me is Mike Evans not playing, with a heavy RB team, Evans was my first WR taken.

    Yeah I hope it opens up, I benched CJ also. I have Hillman as well, one of them needs to step up.
