LJ or Driver?

[kougar24]

Seriously...Driver is looking potentially better than LJ at this point. Thoughts?

(I'm speaking in fantasy football production terms.)

[k-state-wildcats11]

chiefs play the falcons and thigpen is starting at qb


packers play the cowboys

toss up.... I'd go with LJ just because rb's are guaranteed to get the ball in their hand and he just started spouting off again this week so he better show up for this game.

Driver. Newman still isn't healthy. The Boys can be thrown on. Also GB will be playing catch up. Go with Driver.

LJ will get more scoring ops with the chiefs playing their 5th string safety at QB.

But will probably get down early and resort to the air out of desperation.

Right?

BTW, I have this problem because of a massive trade I just made happen, and it's a great problem to have. Thx Aaron Rodgers!

Specifics???

I have Peyton, and I drafted Rodgers in a late round, so I did this:


Gave Aaron Rodgers
Gave Javon Walker

Received Donald Driver
Received Julius Jones
Received Chad Pennington

Not a bad trade overall. I might have tried trading Peyton though, most people imo tend to overrate him.

I'm betting that Peyton will put up better total numbers for the season than Rodgers. Once film accumulates on Rodgers, his production will level off. His stock will never be higher than it is right now, which is why I traded him. And I don't have any doubt Manning will return to Manning form in the next week or two.

How does your league score?  Do you get points for receptions?  bonus at 80 yds receiving?

you want touchdowns not yards right?  obv you want both but would prefer TD's over yds.
i'm more of a stats guy, the chiefs haven't scored a rushing td yet this year, the chances of an LJ touchdown at this point are much higher than a Driver TD imo.

Yeah, that's a good way to look at it, and I agree that averages would say LJ is "due", but is the Chefs' offense even good enough to get to the red zone? Because I don't see LJ breaking off a long one anytime soon.

Here is the WR scoring in my league:

TD Reception: 6   
40+ yard TD rec bonus: 2
Every 5 receiving yards: 0.5

Glad I went with LJ (though I guess Driver hasn't played yet, doubtful he'll match this)...

22 car, 116 yds, TD -- 17.6 pts


In other news, Patriots' D/ST is giving me a solid outing...

38 P/A -- -7 pts
