I think that move has potential. I think the WR tandem at Arizona will have much more FF reliability this year due to Carson Palmer being so much more capable of getting the ball to them than Kolb/Skelton.

Team 2
TE Tyler Eiffert vs. GB
or
TE Dallas Clark vs. BAL

Flex:
RB Joique Bell vs WAS
or
RB Brandon Jacobs vs CAR
or
WR Andre Roberts vs. NO

QB Colin Kaepernick vs. IND
or
QB Russell Wilson vs. JAX (Ive pretty much already chosen Wilson in this one, but I'd still like some opinions.)

I'd start Clark (gut feeling), Bell (possibly Roberts since Fitz is battling an injury) and Kaepernick.

Depends on the depth/quality you have at RB and WR. Eddie Royal has obviously lit shit up lately, which is encouraging and Matthews has been purposely snubbed in red zone/other various situations, which is discouraging... I still think he has potential though...and is he in a contract year this year? Could be wrong. If so, that may make him more inclined to be less of a vag this year...

CaliforniaChief 09-22-2013 09:04 AM

Would you guys start Marlon Brown (BAL) or Larry Fitzgerald (Injury concerns)?

I am not a Mathews fan but never give up a starting PPR type back for a WR who will never get targeted as much as a starting PPR back.

Both QBs are athletic but Kaep who is more athletic with a little bit better arm going against a very weak Colts D IMO you start him. Since you have both these QBs I wouldn't think about starting Wilson UNTIL Harvin comes back and even then Kaep will still probably equal if not beat Wilson in total pts week in and week out. But at least you don't have to worry about getting beat by Wilson;)

Probably Fitz. Basically because it seems to be commonly speculated that Fitz will play today. Not to mention, I am real conservative with rookies like Marlon Brown who have started out their first season huge. I usually prefer them to have at least 5-6 consistently productive games before I feel 100% comfortable starting them... that's just me though.

But then again, there are articles such as this one:

Fantasy Football Week 3 Dark Horse Sleeper: Marlon Brown


Marlon Brown has been surprising people since the Baltimore Ravens brought him in as an undrafted free agent this summer. Brown, a tall receiver who has the body type to be a No. 1 outside receiver, played well in preseason and now finds himself in the right place at the right time to have his breakout NFL game. And the time is right for him to land on your fantasy football radar. The Ravens are seriously thin at receiver. They traded Anquan Boldin this offseason to shed salary, then lost Jacoby Jones to teammate-on-teammate violence in the first week of the season. Brown will be the beneficiary of the suddenly wide-open Baltimore receiver depth chart. A guy who was no stranger to the big play when he was at the University of Georgia — he averaged over 17 yards per reception and scored four touchdowns on just 27 catches his final college season — Brown is a threat to score every time he gets his hands on the ball. Many times in fantasy football value comes down to opportunity just as much as it comes does to talent. You can have all the ability in the world, but if you don’t get on the field often enough it doesn’t matter. That means a guy like Brown, who is going to get snaps early and often against the Houston Texans this week, will get every opportunity to make plays and put up points for your fantasy team. If you’re looking for a dark-horse sleeper, especially in a deep league, grab Brown off your waiver wire and reap the rewards of being ahead of the curve on this guy.

Trent is going to run all over SF D in SF ??
Luck will have time to go deep to Hilton against the SF pass rush and 2ndary ???

I am rarily a fan of starting 2 from the same team but against the Cowboys even in their own house who piss all over their cleats repeatedly week in and week out who are take it to the house type players Daryl/Tavon if I were in your shoes I have no problem starting these guys at least today.

I assure you Jeff Fisher has given the green light to his O-coord today because he has no choice. Should be an interesting game to watch.

I get this writer's take BUT Balt is a run first offense who is 0-2 just coming off losing in Buff going against a salty Houston D and 2ndary. Rice/Jones are out not to mention all the leadership lost from the year before that is taking a toll and Flacco's leadership so far is resulting in losses. The only saving grace is that they are at home and Harbs is the coach. Will Flacco have time to find Brown today ? He might but I see a slow melt down for Balt this season in the long run.

I do think Baltimore is going to fall off. I just wonder if they'll have an emotional burst today. I think I'm sticking with Fitz, but that might change.

Stay with Fitz. It's all poker with his injury.:hmmm: Nobody can cover Fitz and now that he has a legit QB throwing to him that has that chemistry already going he is automatic every week because Palmer is a very good quiet FF QB and Arians knows how to exploit what he has.

lewdog 09-22-2013 10:22 AM

I'm sticking with Fitz too but he looked definitely hurt in last weeks game and did nothing. Hope he's a bit more healed than that.

Remember when Fitz used to be perceived as this immortal, indestructible, unstoppable, Demigod-like wide receiver? I think I had that on my mind when I drafted him relatively early...well, that and the thought that he finally has a relatively decent QB to get the ball to him opposed to the absolute goombahs he has had these past couple years with Skelton and Kolb. Not trying to say that Fitz isn't the cat's pajamas...just seems that he has kind of dwindled a bit, or at least at a quicker pace than I personally expected.

Yea he's getting up there and I definitely won't draft him again. It's amazing what he's done with absolute shit QB play. I was sure even a guy like Carson could connect with him tons, but they've been way off base and fitz just looks slow with that hammy issue.

I'm glad I ended up starting Wilson. Kaep laid an egg today.
