Week 11: Start or Sit?

Start or Sit Day is here! And my MNF countdown is now at 4 days - can't wait. If I could blog from the game, I certainly would. But there's lots of ground to cover before then so let's get right to the start/sit links for this week:
Tomorrow I will bring you my consensus start/sits and all other sorts of Friday fun.

A)Watch what you say about Miami

B) I'm fighting for my playoff life this week. Who starts -- Barber or Rudi J?
Dan revised his comment to:
I revise that, can start 3 out of these 5 -- Addai, Rudi J, Earnest G, Barber, Ryan Grant.

Hi Dan,
I picked up John Beck on a whim for my dynasty league - do I earn some points back in the Miami camp? My uncle is a huge Dolphins fan, too, so I suppose I should watch what I say about Miami now...

Anyway, good to hear from you. I'd go with Addai, Marion Barber and Ryan Grant. Rudi Johnson has a good matchup, I know, but I have lost faith in his ability to move the ball...really at all.

Hope that helps get you to the playoffs, Dan, and hope all is well in NYC.

Who do you think has the better matchup this week, Warrick Dunn or Maurice Morris? Beyond that, which do you think has the better chance of holding onto their starting job down the stretch?

Great website, by the way.
Mike,
If Shaun Alexander doesn't play this week, then I think Morris is the better play over Dunn. Long term though? Man, neither one is all that appealing. Do you mean past this season? Dunn is in his 11th year, I think, and Morris just doesn't seem to have that extra juice that a #1 RB needs. Or do you mean later this season?

I just meant through the end of the season (weeks 14-16). I know they're both bottom-of-the-barrel, but I was just considering each as a potential 5th RB (after Addai, Barber, LenDale, and Ryan Grant). I would have liked to have added Earnest Graham (great playoff schedule), but he was already picked up.

I need two of these running backs. Either Frank Gore, Willis McGahee or Edgerrin James. Tell me which two.
I think I'd go with Gore and McGahee this week - but if Gore doesn't play this week (though he should!), the Edge is a great substitute this week. I know there are some Gore naysayers but he's still got the skills and his performance against the Rams earlier this season was great...something to keep in mind.

Labor Day FF links

Happy long weekend! Here's hoping most of you are free to enjoy the 3-day weekend and the relaxation and fun that comes with it. I spent my Sunday participating in 3 fantasy football drafts scattered throughout the day and night, but I think I've finally wrapped up my drafts for the year. So like many of you I'm now turning my attention to the Week 1 games! But before we get to some player rankings and prep for Week 1, I want to make sure that all you experts out there are aware of the upcoming deadline for the annual accuracy contest that I run with the Fantasy Sports Trade Association. I compare preseason positional rankings from experts to the final outcome of the fantasy season to see which site had the most accurate preseason rankings, and this year's deadline is fast approaching: September 9th by kickoff. Check out the info on the FSTA site for more details and be sure to e-mail me your submissions. Now, onto Week 1! First up, let's get to some of this

2010 Week 2 consensus start/sit

Greetings and happy weekend. I've got this week's consensus start/sit for you which is a tally of all the start/sit votes that players received in the various start/sit articles that I linked to earlier in the week.

QB Start: Michael Vick, Kyle Orton, Matt Ryan, Jason Campbell Sit: David Garrard, Alex Smith, Jay Cutler, Vince Young, Carson Palmer RB Start: LeSean McCoy, Darren McFadden, Ahmad Bradshaw, Brandon Jackson Sit: Tim Hightower, C.J.

A hiatus

Update:  It is with a very heavy heart that I tell you all that yesterday, August 30th, I delivered our stillborn daughter, Caroline Mary. This has been an almost surreal and definitely heartbreaking experience and I appreciate the support in each and every one of your notes. Caroline will be honored and loved always. Thank you, thank you, thank you for your thoughts and prayers - they mean the world to our family. I have been a very poor blogger this month and feel I owe you all an explanation, particularly as this is crunch time for draft prep. I hope this is not too personal of a look into my life since I know most of you are just here for the football. I am nearly 18 weeks pregnant and we have learned that our baby (a little girl!) has triploidy, a chromosomal abnormality that means she has three copies of every chromosome instead of the normal two. The doctors have explained that it's a completely random occurrence and fairly rare that she has made it this far along, but tha
