Consensus Start/Sit for Week 15

Greetings from a so far unsnowy NYC. However I just talked to my mom who is pretty much blanketed in a winter wonderland down in my hometown of Arlington, VA. In a few hours I'll be headed to the Duke vs Gonzaga game here in New York and I'm expecting to be tromping through snow on the way home...snow is just so much more fun when you don't have a car or any driving to worry about. Yea subway.

Meanwhile, there's football on tonight, baby! Love the Saturday night game action and I've got a few links to get you prepared - plus this week's consensus start/sit.
  • First up, the weekly Five Game Parlay that I do with Fighting Chance Fantasy - sadly I'm still trailing in that competition but I've had a few good weeks lately and think I can at least make a little more progress before the season ends.
  • This week's roundtable is up on Fantasy Phenoms with some of the sharpest minds letting us know which players are sleepers and busts this week.
  • A little start/sit advice from Fantasy Depth Chart that's specific to tonight's matchup between the Saints and Cowboys. 
  • Scope out Pyromaniac.com's Week 15 Positional Rankings with the top 12 QBs, 24 RBs, 30 WRs, and 12 TEs for this weekend's games.
Now onto the consensus start/sit for the week - I go through all of the expert start/sit links that I provide during the week and tally up which players have the most votes. They're listed below in no particular order - and always keep in mind that these suggestions don't work for all rosters; I say always play your best talent.

QB
Start: Jason Campbell, Kurt Warner, Matt Schaub
Sit: Ben Roethlisberger, Carson Palmer, Tom Brady

Need some flex advice in a non-ppr league: Arian Foster, Justin Forsett, or Steve Smith NYG. Forsett is in line for a decent number of touches, Smith is the steadiest of the three, but Foster plays the Rams. Any sage words?
Parker,
It's between Forsett and Smith for me. I think RBs are far more consistent so I'm inclined to go with Forsett (especially since I think he's awesome and hopefully Seattle will realize that soon, too). And the fact that NYG is facing Washington makes me think that Forsett is really the best start here. Good luck!

I have Roddy White starting, do i bench him for chris jennings or greg olson?

THANKS!!

Randall - the Revis situation makes me way too shy to start White. I'd go with Jennings, your best shot at some points this week. Good luck!

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

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
