Had two wrench my fingers into dropping CJ Spiller for Peyton Hillis. CJ is such a dynamic talent--- but those bills appear to be going down in flames. Drafted Andre Johnson rd. 1, Shonne Greene rd. 2, and Ryan Grant rd. 3.

Looks rough at the moment, I hope the Texans do right by 'Dre and get him healthy, cause I'm having to scramble to keep my running back spots filled. Glad I value picked Steven Jackson and Ronnie Brown, but who knows how long those guys will hold out.

@FantasmaDanza I think you made the right choice by dumping C.J. Spiller for Peyton Hillis. I'm sure it was a tough decision.

One of my drafts looked eerily similar to your Johnson, Greene, Grant picks. I'm fighting to find the answers every week as well. It's not fun. I hope you get everything figured out.

I think Brown is durable (and a good option most of the time). Jackson is a stud if he can stay healthy. That's the big question mark though.

Let me know if you have questions.

TY, yeah. I needed a little second opinion on that move. The waiver wire has been keeping me alive so far- number 1 in my league actually somehow(Austin Collie and Mike Vick)

Thinking of riding with Jay Cutler and seeing if i can get some good value for Vick while his value is sky high. What you think I should do boss?

I think I asked too much in my first trade M.Vick&S.Jax for Roddy&Arian

@FantasmaDanza I don't think it's a bad idea to shop Michael Vick. I'm not convinced he can keep this pace all season long. Jay Cutler hasn't given me reason to doubt him yet (even though he didn't look great against GB). Is he really the quarterback you want to ride all season though? That's a tough question. I don't know what type of scoring your league uses, but I don't think you asked too much at all. I almost think you're giving up too much (even though Jackson appears to be breaking down).

tim, rest of the season who are you going with - Louis Murphy or Mike Williams from Tampa Bay?

[timlewissports]

@hurikanex I'm still figuring out all of this YouTube stuff, so I didn't reply directly to your question. If you haven't seen it already, you can still find my response in the comment section. Sorry about that! Please let me know if you have any other questions.

@houlihanw Keep an eye on the health of Ryan Mathews. If he's out this week, Tolbert is your best option. Arizona's run defense is 31st in the NFL, allowing 146.3 yards per game. I think Willis McGahee is your next best option. Jones will carry some extra value if Andre Johnson is out, so watch that situation as well. Demaryius Thomas is questionable this week (he should play), but Kyle Orton spreads the love too much to get me excited anyway. I like LeSean McCoy this week against Washington.

[houlihanw]

Jacoby Jones, W. Mcgahee, Tolbert or D. Thomas as my flex this week and what do u think of Hakeem Nicks as my other WR to go with Brandon Marshall and what are your thoughts of Lesean McCoy this week?

[timlewissports]

I would go for Oakland's Louis Murphy over Tampa Bay's Mike Williams. The quarterback situation sucks for both teams, so it balances out there. Murphy has shown over the last two weeks that he can be a go-to-guy no matter who is throwing him the ball though. Williams has been consistent this season, but not consistent enough to be excited about him (unless you enjoy a wide receiver who averages 46 yards per game). Murphy still carries some value if he isn't scoring touchdowns.
