Fantasy Football Fins Advice

[obsessivefinfan]

Guys, I have a couple of teams, and I have Ricky on a couple...and Ginn as well. I am mulling the following decisions in week 1....

Ricky Williams...or Jamal Lewis.....or Selvin Young

and

Tedd Ginn Jr.......Eddie Royal.....or Chris Chambers (Yes I know...ironic)

How reliable do you think our Fins offensive weapons will be? Should I wait or go with them in week 1?

I've got the same problem with J. Lewis and Ricky. I'm starting Ricky based on the fact that I think Dallas will take the lead early preventing the Browns from pounding the rock and Lewis is dinged up with a hammy.

I think RW is a safebet to start. Rotoworld reported that he was gauranteed atleast 20 carries.

TG i honestly dont know, I think the jets will give him double coverage most of the game, they know he is potentially our biggest weapon in the passing game.

The only way I see him getting the ball is through short slats, which should give him room to run a bit.

i'm not sure man. i got ricky williams and chad pennington on my fantasy league.
but i also got LT and reshard menendahl so my starter is of course LT. I'm going 2 watch how ricki does and if he pretty good i'll start him a couple of games. you know he's got the talent and i think he might tear it up this year! he was my sleeper pick. of course i always hope he does good though cuz hes a dolphin. but i would start williams with your RB's. I would start ginn and chambers if i were you. good luck on your picks!

I'd go Michael Turner there, he will definitely be given tons of carries with a rookie QB

I have the same problem. I went with Turner just because he will probably get more carries with Ricky most likely splitting with Ronnie. Ryan Grant is my other starter.

Thanks guys....by the way Marion Barber is my other starter....no questions there!

Ted Ginn always is a threat to score on a punt or kickoff return though, with penningtons accuracy, a perfect thrown slant to ginn in full stride could mean six points, i have him on my team as well but my WR´s are to strong to play him in week 1 but i like to have him on my bench and see how this thing unfolds

I heard Grant is nursing a hammy, keep an eye out, you may want to pick up Jackson as insurance...I guarantee if he goes down everyone is gonna hop on Jackson and you may be screwed....

i'm starting Ricky instead of chester taylor, felix jones and another fool for 2 simple reasons,

the jets' run D is not that good
Ricky will be to the dolphins what Marion Barber was in dallas: he'll finish the games against tired players and run on them all day (all 2nd half, if you prefer.. but it looks nicer !

I go with Ricky cuz lewis has a hammy problem and selvin is not getting the rock at the goal line.

If it is a points for rec. league and you get points from returns I take Ginn
If not I take Chambers due to the fact that he will see alot of 1 on 1 with teams putting the focus on LT.

picked up ricky in quite a few of my leauges just a hunch, had to start ginn due to suspensions and injuries so hope he plays well.
