Where are the weekly DEF team projections posted? Thanks.

I'll be honest. In my PPR draft I took SJax 3rd and Westie went 4th. These last 3 weeks are the reason why I passed on him. I love the guy on the field, but at 29 the 'game-time decision' problem might not go away this year.
I also own J.Jones and Slaton. In a PPR ofcourse I disagree with these rankings and I'd love to see more versions. Regarding JJones though, sadly we'll have to wait and see if Morris takes significant touches once he's healthy. If he doesn't, expect his value to rise.

Tuvey, does Benson have a chance of being of any fantasy value?
Can he take over the starting duties in Cincy?

Westbrook Hopeful

Posted Oct 8, 2008 6:59pm EDT

To Huh: I think the point on Westbrook is he typically gets hurt a game or two but still puts up numbers.
To mikey: AP's numbers have been going down and its tough to do well when you have 8-9 guys in the box. You cannot do that against McNabb and his receivers.
This coming from someone who traded for Westbrook!

Huh

Westbrook still 4th RB even with 2 broken Ribs ? So if your in a draft say today your taking Westbrook 4th with 2 Broken Ribs ?

Mystics

Why ino love for Julius Jones?

mikey

Posted Oct 8, 2008 12:59pm EDT

Knowing what i know now there is absolutely no way that i would draft brian westbrook over AP. With all the injuries and such... Am i alone in this thought? I would still proabably take him number one..

Dan

IObviously the rams are terrible but much like the Phins last year with Brown, Jackson will get so many touches he'll fall into points. I can only think of 2 or 3 RBs i would trade him for. Granted I'm in a PPR league but haven't you kind of said that criteria for a rest of the season ranking deals with a question of "would I trade this guy for this guy?"

John

Tuvey,
I'm looking to trade up at RB.
I see Barber is your #1 RB going forward, but also noticed that David's "Ease of Schedule - Rushing" article from last week has Dallas is tied with the NYG for the toughest Rushing Schedule going forward. That includes the week 14-16 house or horrors stretch of @PIT, NYG, BAL.
This may be a stupid question, but did you fully take that into account in the ranking?
Not trying to rip you, just curious. You guys have helped get me off to a great start this year. Keep up the good work.

Steve

I have the same request. I would love to see this list in PPR format. Would be a great help.

Chris

Posted Oct 8, 2008 11:11am EDT

What's a fair trade Wide Receiver for Jamal Lewis? I was looking at Coles but noticed he fell in the rankings on a bye week for some reason?

Mike

Posted Oct 8, 2008 11:00am EDT

This is great help in peparing for the rest of the season. Could you consider including a ranking for ppr leagues and also a ranking for weeks 14-16 (i.e playoffs). This would help us in making trades to prepare for the playoffs. Thanks
