I bid low on Kenny Stills because I thought I could get away with a 24-dollar bid. And "maybe" I bid on him half-heartedly and "maybe" I'm sort of relieved I didn't get him. He gets very few targets per game -- like less than 3 -- and he's a hit-or-miss homerun hitter despite his 28-point performance.
I bid 24 on another player. Welcome to the team, James Starks...
He's averaging 6 yards a carry for the year, went 7 - 57 and a TD on his return from the injury, and is expected to carry more of the load. I know, it's the Packers run game -- but what's not to love about a Monday Night matchup with Chicago! With Gore, Shorts, and Julius Thomas on byes, I'm playing him. It may be his only start, but this is how desperate I am against a bunch of studs this week. I dropped Hartline.
I dropped the Rams defense. After the Bengals 21-point performance, I'm ready to take them all the way. I picked up David Nelson, now wide receiver for the Jets. He's put up back-to-back double-digit performances after coming back from last year's injury and had 11 targets last week. I think he has star-potential and want to see what he does on the bench.
I dropped Jermaine Gresham. With Julius Thomas on bye, I finally had an opportunity to start the Bengals tight end, who's shown consistency all year. But instead I opted to go with the up-and-coming rookie in Tampa with a new quarterback that likes him -- Tim Wright.
